Xiangcheng Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Glaciers and seas of flowers, these are the places where the summer of Western Sichuan becomes legendary

If landscapes had ranks, the summer scenery of Genie would definitely be at the king level. Self-driving around Genie, I really couldn't stop exclaiming 'wow' all the way. Snow mountains, glaciers, grasslands, seas of flowers, streams, forests, Even for Western Sichuan, it's a rare sight to behold. It's absolutely stunning, everywhere you look there's beautiful scenery. This journey is like the dreamy scenes straight out of a Miyazaki manga. What's even more amazing is that Even during the peak travel season of summer in Western Sichuan, there are few tourists here. This scenic route with few people and no pitfalls is five-star. If you miss it this summer, you really have to wait another year. 🚘【Travel Suggestions】 D1: Chengdu-Kangding-S434-Yuzixi-Xinduqiao D2: Xinduqiao-Yajiang-Tianlu 18 Bends-Litang D3: Litang-Tiejiangshan-Wild Hot Springs-Xiazetong D4: Xiazetong-Eye of Genie-Lenggu Temple-Zebavillage D5: Zebavillage-Hangda Campsite-Gemuvillage-Batang D6: Batang-Cuopugou-Sister Lakes-Maoya Grassland-Litang D7: Litang-Chengdu 📷【Photo Check-in Spots Recommendation】 1⃣Yuzixi Sunset You must watch a sunset at Yuzixi, surrounded by 360° snow mountains, or you can replace it with a visit to Yunrao Yala. 2⃣Litang Changqingchun Ke'er Monastery Back Mountain From the back mountain, you can overlook the entire county town, and you must watch a sunset there, it's super beautiful. 3⃣️Xiazetong Village Xiazetong is Ding Zhen's hometown, halfway up the mountain there are cabins facing the sacred mountain and grasslands full of wildflowers, where you can overlook the entire village, and there's a wild hot spring by the bridge at the village entrance. 4⃣️Eye of Genie The Eye of Genie is beautiful from an aerial view, opposite is the starting point of the Genie C Line trek, and the grasslands here are full of golden wildflowers. 5⃣️Zebavillage (South Line Essence) Zebavillage faces the snow mountain, and the back mountain grassland has a solitary tree, it's an incomparably beautiful sight, and you can also ride a local's motorcycle to the foot of the Genie main peak glacier. 6⃣️Gemuvillage A stunning secret valley hidden in the mountains, completely surrounded by a sea of flowers, it's not an exaggeration to call it a paradise on earth, regret not staying here for a night. 7⃣️Cuopugou The water is super clear and can be compared to Jiuzhaigou, and the flowers by the main lake are also very beautiful, although the ticket is a bit expensive. 8⃣️Sister Lakes A free attraction on Route 318, the photo spot is on the mid-mountain viewing platform. 9⃣️Maoya Grassland The sea of flowers stretches for tens of kilometers, a true feast of flowers, the only downside is that the roadside is fenced off, so you can only enjoy it from the periphery. 🔖Tips: 1. Exercise less and drink more water to avoid altitude sickness, choose an oxygen hotel in Litang. 2. Accommodation conditions in the villages are limited, staying in Zebavillage means staying in the homes of Tibetan locals, you can bring your own sleeping bag. 3. The temperature difference between morning and evening is large, be sure to prepare a windbreaker and down jacket. 4. Some roads have bomb craters, it is recommended to go by SUV, and sedans should be cautious.

Grennan South Line | A secluded luxury camping experience at dusk

A secluded luxury camping experience at dusk. I've always been looking forward to the Grennan South Line, always watching various videos about it. When you really go there during the golden summer season, you'll find that its beauty far exceeds your imagination. It's not an exaggeration, but the key is to encounter particularly good weather. If it's shrouded in clouds and mist, even the beauty of Western Sichuan can't be appreciated. So, weather is of utmost importance. I believe there are several points about the beauty of the Grennan South Line: 1️⃣ Purity: There are not many villages along this line, Bomi Township, Gemu Village, Xiaze Tong Village, Grennan Town. Nature is very well protected, simple and pure. Few people, few cars, coupled with snow-capped mountains, colorful limestone mountains, it really feels more beautiful than Switzerland. . 2️⃣ Snow-capped mountains and peaks, beautiful. This time, the top of Grennan Sacred Mountain was adorned with colorful prayer flags, and the serene blue sky stood quietly there, indescribably beautiful. . 3️⃣ Starting from Batang, driving along the Grennan South Line to Rangrikar Village, which is 80 kilometers away from Litang. How beautiful is the 230-kilometer-long Grennan South Line? You need to experience it yourself, I can't describe it. The journey is filled with snow-capped mountains, grasslands, forests, streams, flower seas, villages, temples, hot springs, and wildlife. The pinnacle of self-driving in Western Sichuan, outshining Highway 318, making other places feel mundane in comparison. What to do then? . 🚗 Day❶: Chengdu → Gedelaram Sky City → Xinduqiao Day❷: Xinduqiao → Litang County → Eye of Grennan → Hangda Campsite (Camping) Day❸: Hangda Campsite → A Tree (or Lao Leng Ancient Temple) → Reti Valley → Gemu Village → Batang County Day❹: Batang County → Cuopugou → Haizi Mountain → Maoya Grassland → Litang County Day❺: Litang County → Changqingchunke'er Temple → Renkang Ancient House → Xinduqiao Day❻: Xinduqiao → Lenggacuo → Gongga Mountain Township/Shangmuju/Yulongxi Day❼: Gongga Mountain Township/Shangmuju/Yulongxi → Zimeiyakou (voluntary visit) → Zheduoshan → Chengdu . ⚠️ ▶ Although it's summer, still pay attention to keeping warm as the altitude is high and the temperature difference between day and night is large. ▶ For those who are self-driving, drive 🚗 slowly and pay attention to safety. ▶ Hats🧢, sunglasses🕶️, scarves🧣, and shawls are essential.

Mysteries of Western Sichuan| The filming location of the movie 'Passing Your Whole World' is Xiangcheng

| The filming location of the movie 'Passing Your Whole World' is Xiangcheng. There is a well-known place in Western Sichuan: Shambhala. Many people think that Shambhala is Daocheng, or they think it is Shangri-La by hearing the name, but it is not. 🍀The real Shambhala is a small city in Western Sichuan: Xiangcheng, which is also the filming location of 'Passing Your Whole World'. Xiangcheng, is the Chinese transliteration of the Tibetan language 'Kachen', which means 'Buddha beads in hand', because the whole Xiangcheng is like a silk thread connecting the white villages on both sides of the river, just like a string of Buddha beads. 👉If you have seen the movie 'Passing Your Whole World' starring Deng Chao and Bai Baihe, you should have an impression of Qingde Radio Station, and the same check-in point as Luorong Cattle Farm, most of which are filmed in Xiangcheng. 1️⃣Qingde Radio Station Located in Qingde Township, this township is like a string of pearls lost in the valley. The white Tibetan houses are hidden in the green and yellow wheat fields, quiet and beautiful, like a paradise. 2️⃣Qingde Township Passing Qingde Township, you can see the Tibetan houses at close range, very thick outer adobe, the interior is a 3-story spacious house, and a large yard, every household's yard is full of flowers, and there is a fragrance of flowers as soon as you enter the yard. 3️⃣Meet lovely people The Tibetans in the village are very simple and enthusiastic. We drove to the viewing platform on the hillside behind the village to overlook the entire village, and then entered the village along the small road. The road is relatively narrow, but it is all hardened. After entering the village, we got lost, drove into the alley and couldn't turn around. A warm-hearted Tibetan guy passed by, guided us to back the car out, and led us to find the parking place, and also led us to find that thousand-year-old Bodhi tree. 📝In Xiangcheng, in addition to checking in the same scenic spots in the movie, there are also Bam Mountain, Bam Seven Lakes Scenic Area, Maxiong Gorge, Ranwu Township Hot Springs, Saobuyou Scenic Area, and the famous Sangpiling Temple. ✅Accommodation in Xiangcheng: It is recommended to stay in Qingde Village, there are several homestays that are very well decorated, transformed from Tibetan houses, but also have the style of Jiangnan courtyard. There are places to eat in the village, both snacks and big meals, but there are fewer. You can also stay in the county town of Xiangcheng, about half an hour's drive from Qingde Village to the county town. ✅Self-driving itinerary suggestion: Day1: Drive from various places to arrive at Qingde Village/Xiangcheng County and check in Day2: Get up early to see Qingde Village in the morning mist, stroll around the village in the morning, and go to Sangpiling Temple in the afternoon Day3: Go to Bam Mountain, Bam Seven Lakes (sometimes closed), or leave Xiangcheng directly ❣️In Western Sichuan, you can see the prayer flags fluttering in the wind everywhere. Looking at such colors for a long time, it makes people feel a kind of tranquility in their hearts. I am a student traveling in Xiao Zhao, sharing the routes I have driven and the scenery I have seen with you.
