I thought coming to Western Sichuan was just about seeing snow-capped mountains, until I visited Genie

I always thought that coming to Western Sichuan meant admiring snow-capped mountains, until I discovered a different scene at Genie. 👏 Here, there is an endless sea of flowers, adorned with blue, yellow, and white; 👏 Here, the air is filled with the fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds, and just by lifting your head you can see little birds chattering in the treetops; 👏 Here, it feels like stepping into a world from a Hayao Miyazaki manga, with unique mountain shapes that give Genie its unparalleled beauty❗️❗️ - 🔥 Genie is a place I've been to and want to visit again 🔸 Flower sea: Using the word 'sea' to describe it is not an exaggeration, pink flower sea, azure flower sea, yellow flower sea... all are natural photo spots 🔸 Lakes: The water plants reflect each other, and under the sunlight, they shimmer 🔸 Snow-capped mountains: Majestic and spectacular, with year-round snow on the peaks, they shine like sacred mountains from afar 🔸 Temples: Distinct ethnic characteristics, with a strong religious atmosphere 🎀 Besides, the wooden houses and jungles along the Genie route make one feel as if entering the world of Hayao Miyazaki's manga, so beautiful~ - ⏰ Best time to visit: Mid-June to Mid-August ⛰ Average altitude: Over 4000m ✅ Recommended routes 【Genie Pilgrimage】 days of hiking days, a total of 25km Suitable for everyone · 【Genie Route C】 days of hiking days, a total of 80km Suitable for those with hiking experience - 🔥 Route differences 【Genie Pilgrimage】 involves more 🚗 driving, requires less physical strength, and is suitable for children to try 【Genie Route C】 involves more 🚶🏻‍♂️ hiking, requires more physical strength, and is not recommended for beginners Challenge: On D4, you need to cross over a dozen large and small gorges, which is a test of physical fitness, but at the same time, you will gain a rare beauty: meadows along the way, dotted with various flowers, and the sacred Genie Mountain overhead, painful yet joyful!! - Little tips 🔹 Although June to August is the flower season, it is also the rainy season, and river levels may rise, so it's recommended to bring stream trekking shoes 🔹 During the hike, there is basically no network signal, but you won't have time to look at your phone while enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way 🔹 You need to carry your own trail meals, mainly to replenish energy during the hike, recommended snacks include beef jerky, bread, etc. 🔹 The Genie Pilgrimage can start on May 25th, and Genie Route C can start on May 11th, although it's not the flowering season, the scenery along the way is still good
