Things to do in Hanyuan

Jiuxiang Ancient Town is located in the mountains. Due to inconvenient transportation and being far away from big cities, the ancient town is still quite primitive. However, there are actually not many ancient buildings inside. You can start from the archway and there are several alleys. The local yellow beef is especially recommended.

One day and one night is the best. In the morning, go to Jiuxiang to pick fruits and enjoy flowers; in the afternoon, take a walk by Hanyuan Lake, take a boat tour, and go to the supermarket to buy the best peppercorns; in the evening, you must go to eat beef hotpot (Hanhulou beef).

The scenery is beautiful, with lush greenery and flowing blue water. The valley is characterized by its many rocks, and the water is crystal clear with frequent small waterfalls. Although the one-way A route is 6 kilometers, there are sightseeing buses at intervals, satisfying both hiking and sightseeing needs; you can choose according to your preference. At the summit is a hidden gem of dove trees, which must be incredibly beautiful when the dove trees are in bloom; I highly recommend visiting then. On the final stretch of the descent, there are bamboo rafts to the exit, allowing for frequent water activities along the entire route, and the bamboo rafting adds a lot of fun. Highly recommended! I just wonder if there's accommodation at the summit; that would be fantastic.

Sichuan Dadu River Canyon National Geopark has pleasant scenery and beautiful landscapes. It is located at the junction of Hanyuan County and Ganluo County. It is a 4A scenic spot. It feels very good, interesting and cost-effective.

We spent two days at Mount Emei without feeling tired or rushed. On the first day, we started from Baoguo Temple Station and went to the Golden Summit (a full package cost 370 yuan). First, we took a two-hour shuttle bus, then walked for about 30 minutes, mostly uphill. There were shops on one side and monkeys on the other, which you could feed and play with (they didn't attack). We walked and bought things along the way until we reached the cable car. The cable car was large enough to hold 100 people. It was foggy at first, but cleared up after we emerged from the sea of ​​clouds. The main attractions at the Golden Summit are for worshipping Buddha and seeing the sea of ​​clouds; the scenery was spectacular. On the second day, we took a bus from Baoguo Temple Station to Zhongshan Wuxiangang Station (20 yuan one way, 40 yuan round trip). This route mainly included Guanyin Pavilion, the monkey area, and the stream valleys. We watched and played with the monkeys; the scenery was beautiful, mostly flat, making it perfect for the elderly and children. We arrived at the monkey area at 1 pm, just in time for the staff to feed the monkeys. There were many monkeys of all sizes, on the stream banks and in the trees. We tourists were on the boardwalk viewing platform, and it was quite safe and undisturbed. In short, Mount Emei was beautiful, fun, and not tiring at all.

The scenic area boasts a beautiful environment with lush vegetation, towering bamboo groves, and a variety of blooming flowers. The management is orderly, and the wait time for the sightseeing bus is short. The giant pandas are adorable, but while queuing to see the flowers, I only caught a glimpse of their backs. However, at least I saw them; those who queued up later probably didn't even get a glimpse. The red pandas are quite plump, and we could get up close to them. I also tried the creative panda-themed ice cream. Definitely worth coming back to!

The landscapes all beautiful. Glad to visit one of the oldest irrigation systems in the world. Easy to book and check in to park.

The scenery along the way was breathtaking. If it weren't foggy, the views would be even more captivating. Next time, I'd choose a different season to go, as the scenery would be even more different. It's definitely worth a trip!

The environment is great, but the climb is a bit strenuous. I recommend those with weak legs take the cable car up and walk down. Apparently, the Wenchuan earthquake destroyed some old buildings, so all you see are new buildings, which is a bit of a shame and diminishes the feel of the Legend of Sword and Fairy series.
