One must take the three-day mini circuit in Western Sichuan in their lifetime

When in Western Sichuan, the three-day and two-night mini circuit is really wonderful during the off-season! A rare pure land on earth, Western Sichuan has too many sacred and beautiful natural wonders, and it is a pure land that is easier to reach than Tibet. 🗺️My itinerary: Day1️⃣: Chengdu - Mao's Nose Viewing Platform - Shuangqiao Valley of Mount Siguniang - Dujiangyan Day2️⃣: Dujiangyan - Bipenggou - Heishui Day3️⃣: Heishui - Dagu Glacier - Chengdu 📍Attractions: ✔️Mao's Nose Viewing Platform: Here you can enjoy the panoramic view of Mount Siguniang, and if you are lucky to encounter the sunrise, you can witness the magnificent spectacle of the sun shining on the golden mountain. ✔️Mount Siguniang and Shuangqiao Valley: Mount Siguniang is known as the 'Switzerland of Western Sichuan' and the 'Alps of the East'. It consists of four snow-capped mountains and three valleys. The photo opportunities are fantastic, and the area is well-developed with complete facilities. At the entrance, you can even experience horse riding. ✔️Dujiangyan: Dujiangyan thrives on water and is named after the dam. What Dujiangyan has in abundance is a sense of relaxation. It is very suitable for hiking if you have enough time, but we only stopped to rest our feet, which is a bit regrettable. ✔️Bipenggou: The early spring scenery and rime of Bipenggou are still dazzling, and you can snap great photos almost anywhere, including reflections of snow-capped mountains. ✔️Heishui, Dagu Glacier: The Dagu Glacier is a dazzling pearl of Heishui County. You need to take a cable car to get there, at an altitude of 4860m. It was the site of my most severe altitude sickness during this trip, but the moment I arrived, it was all worth it. A natural treasure encased in ice, it felt like arriving in Northern Europe. The world's loneliest coffee shop is located here, and if you're lucky, you might even encounter cute wild animals. 📝Preparation suggestions: Sunscreen, sunglasses, crampons (needed for climbing snow mountains), Coriolus versicolor (can be taken a week in advance), anti-motion sickness supplies, high-calorie snacks, oxygen bottles (also available in scenic areas but more expensive), vitamins, and cold medicine 📝Tips 👉For altitude sickness, make sure to prepare enough oxygen bottles! Resist the urge to shower. If you are on a tour like me, don't go to the restaurants recommended by the guide, as they are very poor value for money. In fact, the prices in Western Sichuan are reasonable, and you can completely take care of meals on your own. 👉Western Sichuan is vast, with various routes available. Everyone can look up more information. Personally, I think Mount Siguniang and Dagu Glacier are must-visit places.
