Leshan Alsophila Grand Canyon Travel Guide
Leshan Alsophila Grand Canyon Travel Guide
Navigation: Head to the Alsophila Grand Canyon in Xiba Town, Leshan.⛰️
Tickets: 10 yuan per person.
Parking: A parking fee of 10 yuan per private car.
Route: We entered the mountain area from Gate 1, and Gate 2 has a nine-turn path, equivalent to 9 flights of stairs, which is quite tiring to walk. There is only one way through the whole journey, no return is possible, and if you enter from Gate 1, you must exit from Gate 2. If you are not physically fit, you can also walk to Gate 2 and then turn back. It takes only two and a half hours to reach the scenic area from the south gate of Chengdu. There are no dining facilities within the scenic area, so it is best to go after having a meal or bring your own food reserves. Leaving at 10 am for a one-day trip is very appropriate, and you can also go to Leshan City to taste the delicious fried skewers.🍢
Alsophila, as the 'resident' of that era, is old and tall, simple and magnificent, showing strong vitality; the young ones are slim and graceful, full of charm. Seeing the Alsophila trees gives you the illusion of returning to the 'Jurassic' era.
Experience: The main purpose of this trip is to absorb oxygen and observe the leaves, taking a short hike with a few good friends. The whole journey takes about 3 hours, covering approximately 6 kilometers. It can get a bit monotonous after a while, as the scenery along the way is largely the same, including the so-called 'King of Alsophila'... which after a long walk turns out to be just a larger Alsophila tree. However, the overall experience is still good, very suitable for taking photos, it is recommended for sisters who love to take photos to wear something sporty. In addition, visitors to this place can bring insect repellent spray, as there are many trees and water in the rainforest, and therefore a lot of mosquitoes. It would be even better if you could bring a walking stick.
Dining: I recommend the 10-year-old Leshan shop - Changyao Fried Skewers (Fried Street Shop), I have been there several times, and the Sweet Skin Duck from the neighboring Sanmeier is also very delicious!
The virgin forest has a sense of sight, the nightmare of people who don’t like sports. The paradise of people who love mountaineering and outdoors is all mountain paths, steep streams, moss densely, and overgrown vegetation. Tickets are 10 yuan per person. Children don’t need money. The car can drive to the entrance of the attraction. There is a parking space at the door.
Close to nature, without any artificially decorated natural scenery, go to absolutely no regrets.
Absolutely pleasantly surprised niche, especially suitable for parent-child travel.
In the afternoon, the scenic spot we are going to is the Alsophila Canyon, which is also a relatively mysterious place. Panshan Road is particularly difficult to walk, especially to test the car skills. Fortunately, we can drive to the scenic spot with navigation. There is no obvious ticket office in the scenic spot. Only an old grandmother with a black cat stopped us to check tickets. Tickets are cheap, only 8 yuan. The scenic area is very large. It takes at least three to four hours to walk down. It's suitable for camping, hiking and summer resort. It is said that thousands of plants in the scenic area are the purest natural oxygen bar. Visitors can't be seen in the scenic area. I can only hear the cries of eagles, which make my hair stand on end. The ecology here is also very well preserved. There are also unknown bird calls. There is a small selling point in the forest. It is estimated that some drinks and snacks will be sold in summer. Now there's nobody left. We found a hibernating snake that frightened the baby. It's really suitable for Museum photography. There's another way to the scenic spots, and that's about to go around. It's not enough for our time to go through the whole journey. I just have to walk around and watch the flowers.
In the silent canyon. The stream is murmuring. Flowers and plants flourish. It's a paradise on earth.
