Help!!! This is actually the Little Switzerland of China|Binggou River in Qilian Mountains

It's really beautiful, just like a fairy tale. It's a paradise for hiking enthusiasts and a perfect summer resort!!! It's so beautiful that I regret not bringing enough clothes! Binggou River Scenic Area is located in Qilian Town, Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, Wuwei City, Gansu Province, 35 kilometers away from Wuwei City. This is a treasure trove that integrates natural landscapes such as snow-capped mountains, heavenly lakes, waterfalls, forests, grasslands, and rivers. It reopened at the end of April 2023. The scenic area sightseeing bus costs 30 yuan, and the number of rides is unlimited. 🕒Play time: Due to limited time, we didn't explore the snow-capped mountains and heavenly lakes in depth, only visited the Nimela Grand Canyon and forest crossing, which took about 2-3 hours. 🌟Here are some warm tips: 1. The entire hiking route is about 8 kilometers one way. The sightseeing bus can reach the 5-kilometer mark, and the remaining 3 kilometers need to be hiked, but the scenery in the first 5 kilometers is super beautiful. 2. The marmots on the road are chubby and appear in groups. 3. There are also many white yaks. 4. The scenic area is not overly developed, retaining a primitive atmosphere, quiet and comfortable. However, the signal in the mountains is poor, and some areas have no signal. Don't go too deep into the hinterland, safety first! Locals say they have seen brown bears here. 5. There are restaurants in the scenic area with high cost performance and delicious food. 6. The temperature in the mountains is low, wearing a down jacket is not an exaggeration. If you don't bring thick clothes, you can rent a windbreaker for 60 yuan, with a deposit of 300 yuan. 7. The Malan flowers and rhododendrons have not bloomed, and the snow has not melted, so the water flow is not large. It's too cold this year. This place is great for summer vacation and is also very suitable for family trips. The scenic area has hotels, the roads are easy to walk, and there is no climbing. My watch shows an altitude of 2900 meters, so don't walk too fast. 🏁Suggested route: After entering 👉 forest crossing 👉 Nimela Grand Canyon 👉 sightseeing bus back; or vice versa. Those with good physical strength can hike back and forth for an in-depth exchange with nature!
