📍Daocheng
"There is a place called Daocheng, and I want to go there with my most beloved person💗! To see the blue sky🖼, the white snow-capped mountains🏔, and the golden grasslands🏕."

Four snow-capped mountains🏔, a road leading to the snow mountains🛣, white towers🎈, and meadows🌳. There are no bad photos📷 here!

The romance of the world is nothing compared to Yuzixi💗. This is the most classic and popular🔥 viewing spot for Gongga Snow Mountain in western Sichuan! The golden mountain at sunset🌄 is incredibly beautiful.
📍Seda
Seda is a famous Buddhist place, with 🔴red monk houses that are spectacular and unique. It is known as the "Red Buddhist Kingdom."
📍Bipenggou
In Bipenggou, you can see ice waterfalls🏔, snow-capped mountains🗻, forests🌲 up close, and enjoy various snow activities.
📍Dawa Gengza
Dawa Gengza means "beautiful sacred mountain"🏔 in Jiarong Tibetan. It is a 360° viewing platform🌌 with diverse and beautiful scenery.
📍Dagu Glacier
Dagu Glacier is the world's lowest altitude, largest area, and youngest glacier🗻, and it is also the closest glacier to the city🏠.
📍Moshi Park
Moshi Park is called the "China Geological Bermuda" by experts and scholars. Walking in the park feels like strolling on an "alien planet"🌏.
✅Tips for Traveling in Western Sichuan:
🔹Be sure to bring warm clothes or a windbreaker. The plateau is really different from the plains! The temperature difference between day and night is large, and it gets colder at higher altitudes and at night. You can buy a shawl at the scenic spot, which looks good in photos and keeps you warm.
🔹Prepare for sun protection, bring sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses. Don't be fooled by the seemingly mild sun; the ultraviolet rays are very strong on the plateau, and it's super easy to get tanned! The sunlight there is quite glaring.
🔹Bring moisturizing skincare products, face masks, and lip balm. The plateau climate is quite dry, and if you don't hydrate your face enough, it will hurt from being too dry, and makeup will cake!

Northwestern Sichuan | The Eastern Alps·Bi Peng Gou
Bi Peng Gou is a major attraction in northwestern Sichuan, with scenery that changes with the seasons. Snow begins to fall at the end of autumn❄️, and by January and February, the entire mountaintop is covered with thick snow, which then gradually melts. Around April and May, a stretch of green grass will grow, and by June and July, the mountains are lush and incredibly beautiful❤️
Bi Peng Gou does have a bit of a Swiss feel to it, but unfortunately, the weather was not good, and the sky was covered with a layer of gray haze from start to finish. One can imagine how much more beautiful it would be in good weather. We ended up eating instant noodles on the mountain, and it is said that the boiling water is indeed melted snow, which feels like a win👍
Taking the scenic area bus for a slow ride around the mountain area takes about four to five hours, and the facilities are quite good. Walking from station to station is not too tiring. April and May are not crowded and are very suitable for a walk, with very fresh air, and it's absolutely refreshing❤️

Who says Bipenggou is a little Switzerland in western Sichuan? I disagree!
The world is so beautiful, only if you have seen it with your own eyes
Who says Bipenggou is a little Switzerland in western Sichuan?
It's much more beautiful than Switzerland!
The sky of the plateau is like a child's face, today it gave us a big smile all the way. It was still winter when we went up the mountain, the higher we went, the less clear we could see, the ice and snow on both sides of the road had not melted, making people mistakenly enter the foggy forest of the ice and snow wonderland.
But as soon as we arrived at Shanghai Zi, the sun began to show its face, gradually the veil of the snow mountain faded away, when we got to Panyang Lake, the sun was no longer shy, shining generously on the lake.
The ice is clear and transparent, the snow is heavy on the pine, the jade lake is reflected... It's so beautiful that it's breathtaking, even my parents who don't like to travel feel it's worth the trip, this world is worth it, the fairyland is nothing more than this.
When we descended from Swallow Rock and returned to Panyang Lake, the scene was no longer there, and it had returned to the foggy state. So the good scenery in this world never waits for anyone, it requires a bit of good luck, and also a bit of courage to go out.
When we returned to Shanghai Zi and took the sightseeing car down the mountain, the snow on the side of the road had melted, winter had turned into autumn, colorful and dazzling. Don't say that the scenery is different in a few days, even in a few moments it's a world of difference.
Go, while you can!

🍽️Recommended food in Western Sichuan:
✔️Yak meat: A specialty of Western Sichuan, it tastes good with dry dishes!!
✔️Sausage: It's different from the sausage I usually eat. It's a bit spicy. If you're not afraid of spicy, you can try it
✔️Hand-grabbed lamb: It's also spicy, but it's delicious
✔️Butter cake: Also a specialty of Western Sichuan. This store's butter cake has a bit of milk flavor, but I have eaten another store's butter cake. It's greasy and there's something inside. It's like the cake I usually eat at a small stall. I feel this store's butter cake is more authentic

Sichuan West is too amazing! Any place you choose is stunningly beautiful!
I originally wanted to sign up for a one-day tour of the Four Girls Mountain, but all travel agencies there couldn't buy a suitable date two days in advance, so I changed to Bipenggou, and the expectations with friends were not high, but I was surprised. Nature really has energy, you will feel open-minded, people in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan do not inhale oxygen, but they have headaches when they come down from the mountain. Let's take a selfie first!

🏔️Scenic Area Situation
Bipenggou requires a ride on the scenic tour bus. The first section is a ride on the large tour bus to the Shanghaizi service area, then take the scenic electric car to Moon Bay and Swallow Rock.
We didn't ski in Bipenggou, mainly just to see the snow. There are quite a few people in the scenic area, but there are fewer people around 3-4 in the afternoon.
There are snacks, instant noodles, coffee, and milk tea for sale in the scenic area. It's really fortunate to be able to drink something hot on the plateau.
🧣Precautions
1⃣️After Yangkang, your body will feel a bit uncomfortable on the plateau. I travel in western Sichuan all year round, and I also had some altitude sickness this time. You can buy some Rhodiola before going to western Sichuan.
2⃣️Be sure to dress warmly❕Gloves, hats, thermal pants, sunglasses🧤🧢👖🕶️can't be less. Remember to wear boots, other shoes are easy to get wet and not very warm. It's really cold up there, without gloves, your hands will freeze in two seconds.
3⃣️The ultraviolet rays in the plateau area are very strong, especially when the sun☀️comes out in the afternoon, remember to apply sunscreen, otherwise it will hurt if you get sunburned.
4⃣️You can bring some snacks. It feels like when you get to the plateau, if you exercise a little bit more, you will feel particularly hungry. Chocolate🍫instant noodles🍜spicy strips and absolutely delicious we all brought haha. We haven't been hungry these days🤪
This trip was a spontaneous trip with friends, and we saw the first snow of the year, which was very romantic.

"Lost in the secret realm of nature"
Bipenggou is located in the western part of Sichuan Province, China, and is known as the "pearl of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau". It has world-famous natural landscapes and unique geological landforms.
First of all, it is recommended to prepare your body in advance. Bipenggou is located in a high-altitude area, with an altitude of over 3,000 meters, which may face the problems of hypoxia and altitude sickness for those who are not adapted to high altitudes.
Take appropriate rest during the trip to better adapt to the high-altitude environment.
Secondly, due to the changeable weather in the Bipenggou area, please be sure to bring suitable clothes. The temperature difference between morning and evening is large, there may be sudden cooling and rainfall, so it is recommended to carry warm jackets and rain gear. Also consider preparing for sun protection and sun hats to protect your skin from damage when the sun is strong.
In addition, in order to better appreciate the beauty of Bipenggou, I recommend setting off early in the morning to avoid crowd congestion. In this way, you can better enjoy the magnificent waterfalls, streams, and peaks, and have more photo opportunities. At the same time, please respect the natural environment and do not arbitrarily destroy vegetation and animal habitats.
Bipenggou in western Sichuan is an unforgettable tourist destination, but it also requires caution and preparation. Adapt to high altitudes, carry clothes reasonably

SICHUAN - Picturesque BIPENGGOU Valley!
LOCATION: Bipenggou Valley is located 4-5 hours drive away from Chengdu.
HOW TO GET THERE: If you have the license to drive in China then definitely do that but if you don't, no worries there are buses that will take yoi right at Bipenggou Valley from Xinnamen Bus Station. You can go to the bus station yourself to buy your tickets. That's what we always do when we use buses as our mode of transportation.
WHAT TO DO and Ticket Price: We only had half a day to hike the valley and reached the Icand Snow Resort where you can play with snow such as skiing. All the gears must be rented though so make sure you have some extra money to enjoy that on top of the 70rmb to enter this National Park.
We didn't do the skiing activities as we didn't have a long time there so we just enjoyed ourselves by taking pictures around this place.
ACOMMODATION: If you wanna stay here , you can as there is a hotel called Namuhu Hotel.
You can also go to the nearest village which is called TAOPING QIANG VILLAGE where we really enjoyed walkibg around ancient houses and took so many photos too. (Photo1 2 8 are taken from an elevated area overlooking the village)
There are also local reataurants in the village.

WILD and STUNNING Beauty! BIPENG Valley!
Sichuan is hiding some of the most beautiful sceneries in the world! This is definitely one of them!
Due to rather remote location, Bipeng Valley is not overpacked with crowds and the wild atmosphere of the valley will swallow you (it’s a good thing).
If love mountain trips but you’re tired of Huangshan-type kind of trekking, you should add this place onto your list.
Takes about 3hrs drive from Chengdu. Driving the curvy roads going there is an experience itself. I don’t recommend other than driving yourself, as public transport in these locations is not much convenient. #mountainview #hikingtrails #sichuan

MY FIRST TIME SEEING SNOW!
I felt like I was four years old again when I see and touch the snow for the first time 😂❄️.
It was a bumpy long ride from Chengdu to the Bipenggou scenic spot. However, the majestic Tibetan scenics entertained us along the way. As we neared to the scenic area of Bipenggou, the scenery changed to patches of pure white and I was filled with such bliss. To see something for the first time is to see something in its purest and most childlike form of beauty. 💕😊
Bipenggou Valley is a unique ecological picturesque place that combines a primitive natural landscape with a healthy ecosystem. Bipenggou Valley is graced with typical alpine scenery, including virgin forest, plateau lakes, old glaciers, snow-capped mountains, tinkling streams and waterfalls, as well as primitive meadows, due to its unique geographic location. Locals regarded it as the beautiful shadow of Mount Siguniang.

The charm of the "Switzerland of Western Sichuan".
Bipenggou is known as the "Switzerland of Western Sichuan". It is indeed a place where you can forget to return. Every frame is beautiful and beautiful, and it feels like a wallpaper.
The water surface of Bipenggou is like a mirror, perfectly replicating the real scene, both true and false. The clouds and mist in the mountains are like a fairyland.
The four seasons here are all leading the way, and it is worth checking in multiple times. Spring is a good time to watch flowers, and wild flowers all over the mountains are vying for beauty. It's a bit early now in early autumn, and the mountains are still green. In the late autumn season, the forests are all dyed, the maple leaves are like fire, blue, white, red, and orange are interspersed, which is quite spectacular.
