I'm curious, there's not a single tourist on the main road

Entering Aba County, the first thing that catches your eye is a temple, which even in the darkness cannot hide the row of glittering prayer wheels. However, to my surprise, I couldn't find any information about this temple online, so I decided to change my plans on the spot and resolve to explore it the next day. A monk greeted us warmly and invited us into the parking lot, and although we didn't speak the same language, smiles were the best communication. Unexpectedly, the temple was bustling with worshippers, with hundreds of devotees circumambulating the main hall. I thought it was a festival, but it turned out to be the norm. 🛑 With no tourists, it's perfect for weekends and holidays, especially during the Spring Festival, definitely a great place to avoid the travel rush! We wandered around for three full hours before we left reluctantly, without seeing another tourist the whole time. Photos 5, 6, and 9 are my favorite spots! 🛑 Navigation: Juenang Saige Temple (the largest existing Jonang sect temple of Tibetan Buddhism) Tickets: 0 Opening hours: 7am to 7pm Address: Yingbin Road, Aba County. It's a 10-minute drive from Langyi Temple, recommended to visit Langyi Temple for the sunrise and morning mist, and then come here for a visit. - Travel in Western Sichuan | Sichuan Travel Guide | Off-the-beaten-path Attractions | Routes around Chengdu | Self-drive Tour
