XIONG ER CHANG SHAO KAO

The barbecue at the fire pit is completely self-service, but there is a plate of oil on it. I don't know what it is for. Later, the staff introduced that the oil is used to fry beef. The beef tastes particularly fragrant after frying. In addition, there are several special snacks that must be ordered here, such as the snow cake-like thing made of snow in Figure 4. I also forgot the name, but it tastes good! And the small tofu here, which is baked until golden yellow, must not be missed. It is a must-order dish to remove oil and greasiness.

There are several must-eat delicacies in Xichang, one of which is drunken shrimp, and the fire pot barbecue is another must-eat. Under the guidance of a friend, we came to this restaurant. We obviously came a little early, and the guests in the restaurant have not yet arrived, but it is also very good to have a fire pot to ourselves. The key to eating fire pot barbecue is the seasoning. There are two types of seasonings here, one is a wet sauce made of soy sauce and other seasonings, and the other is a dry sauce made of chili. After eating both seasonings, I personally prefer the dry one because it doesn't taste so salty, and the most important thing is that the chili taste is particularly strong.

This is definitely my first time eating at Zhutiantang. This barbecue restaurant has a very good reputation in the local area. All kinds of grilled ingredients are very fresh, and many of them are not available in my own city. It's good.

The aftertaste is so strong I miss it every day after I get home 😭 Just got back from Xichang, and now my mind is full of the wind from Qionghai, the fireworks in the ancient city, and that insatiable barbecue! It was clearly labeled "discouraging," but after visiting, I discovered that Xichang in August is a true summer treasure trove. ✨ This heartfelt guide will immerse you in the beauty of Xichang~ 🌊 My soul heads to the first stop—Qionghai Qionghai in August is a place where the word "cool" is ingrained in our bones. Strolling along the Qionghai wetlands, the wind carries the fragrance of aquatic plants, and the sunlight, filtering through the clouds, softens, casting a golden shimmer across the lake. Rent an electric scooter and cycle around the sea 🚲 Starting from the charming Moonlight Town, you'll skim over the shimmering waters, passing the quaint Huanglianguan Town. Singing a tune in the lake breeze, all your worries will be swept away~ In the evening, be sure to head to Jinlin Beach to watch the sunset 🌄. The setting sun paints the entire sky a vibrant orange-red, and the warm afterglow casts a warm glow on your skin. The shimmering waters and the sunset glow blend beautifully, making every photo look like a movie poster! On a good day, you can even see the stars at night in Qionghai. The Milky Way stretches across the lake like a ribbon, creating a romantic scene so captivating you'll want to get married right there in the heart of Qionghai! 🏯 Huanglian Earth Forest, a Time-Sculpted Miracle This is a miracle carved by time! Stepping into the Huanglian Earth Forest feels like stepping into an ancient secret realm. The earth pillars are shaped in various shapes, some resembling ferocious beasts, others like ancient castle spires. In the August sun, the texture of the earth forest glows with a golden glow. Wandering through the ravines of the earth forest, listening to the wind whistling through the cracks, touching the soil deposited over millennia, the weight of history creeps through your fingertips and fills your body with a sense of awe that no photo can capture! 🍢 A Xichang Culinary Revelry – Fire Pit BBQ A trip to Xichang wouldn't be complete without fire pit barbecue! As night falls, find a restaurant with a vibrant atmosphere and gather around the fire pit. The skewers sizzle with oil. The pork, small intestines, and beef are grilled to a crispy, fragrant aroma, then smothered in Xichang's signature pickled radish. The savory aroma, mingling with the sour, spicy, and crispy flavors, creates a firework display on your tongue. 🎆 Pair it with an ice-cold beer and chat with friends over a meal – this is what summer should be like! 🌙 The Ancient City of Jianchang becomes increasingly charming as the night progresses. As the lights come on, the bluestone pavements of the ancient city begin to glow. Walking on the thousand-year-old road, the lanterns of the Ming and Qing Dynasty buildings on both sides are reflected on the red walls, and the leisurely Pingtan music can be heard from the teahouse. Turning the corner, you will come across a small shop selling Liangshan snow. Take a sip, and the sweet taste will instantly dispel the summer heat. Walking late into the night, the fireworks of the ancient city still stream, and the shadows of the old city walls are silent and gentle, making you want to linger with time a little longer~ 📍 3-Day Itinerary (Comfort Version) • Day 1: Arrive in Xichang → Stroll and bike through Qionghai Wetland → Watch the sunset at Jinlin Beach → Enjoy a brazier barbecue in the city • Day 2: Explore the Huanglian Earth Forest → Return to the city to explore Jianchang Ancient City → Sample local snacks (such as rice noodle rolls and fried potatoes) • Day 3: Luoji Mountain (Highly recommended if you have enough time!

The sun in Xichang is incredibly hot, so bring sunglasses, a hat, and high-factor sunscreen, or you'll be tanned in no time. • Don't cycle in Qionghai during the middle of the day; the mornings and evenings are cooler and more photogenic. Remember to bargain and compare prices when renting a bike. • Don't order too much at the brazier barbecue; portions are often generous! If there aren't many people, ask the owner to help you with the selection to avoid wasting. • Prices vary among the small shops in the ancient city, so ask before buying.
