How to have fun in Western Sichuan in winter?
1. Go ice skating on various lakes, such as the wild horse sea of Zhe Duo Mountain, the Sting Lake of Kangding Airport, the Lake of Black Stone City, the seven mountains and seven lakes of Tagong Grassland, it's really great!
2. If you want to see the golden sunshine on the snow-capped mountains, many places have been closed due to the snow.
There are actually several peaks around Xindu Bridge that you can go to, such as Yuzi West, Gedilam, Mannuka, and the newly built Ze Ren Beng Zeng.
It's only about an hour's drive from Xindu Bridge, and cars can reach directly.
For those who want to go, it hasn't started snowing there yet, set off quickly~ Xindu Bridge

Yuzixi
After a difficult journey along the rugged mountain road, I finally arrived at Yuzixi, a newly popular spot for internet celebrities. Once at the summit, I couldn't help but exclaim, 'Wow, how beautiful!' The three majestic snow-capped mountains of central Shu stand proudly in the distance. Excitedly, I saw 'The King of Shu Mountains,' Mount Gongga, making up for the regret of not seeing it yesterday. I was also lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the sunlit golden mountain and the Yuzixi sunset!
MathildeHansen
Go to Yuzixi, to attend a sunset invitation.
Yuzixi has become very popular this year. I came here specifically to test how the view is. For those planning to visit, make sure to read this!
1⃣ Viewing Effect 🏔:
This is indeed a 360-degree viewing platform. This is also a place where you can see the golden sunlight on Gongga Mountain and Yala Mountain at sunset. However, the snow-capped mountains are a bit far to see with the naked eye, so you will need a telephoto lens (you know what I mean~).
2⃣ Road Conditions 🚗:
Starting from Xinduqiao, it takes about 40 minutes to reach Yuzixi. Almost all cars can pass, the road is a cement country road, and the last 1 kilometer is a dirt road. Drive slowly and you can make it.
3⃣ Accommodation 🏠:
There is a starry sky campsite above. If the weather is good and you love photography, you can stay there. If you want better accommodation conditions and higher comfort, it is recommended to stay in Xinduqiao.
4⃣ Time Arrangement 👀:
There is no need to go to Yuzixi too early. It is cold on the mountain early in the morning, and the daytime scenery is average. The sunset is usually around 7 o'clock. You can start climbing from Xinduqiao at around 5 o'clock. The sunset lasts for half an hour, and you can go down at around 7:30.
5⃣ Basic Facilities 🥙:
The campsite has a restaurant, horse riding, swings, and tents. The facilities are very complete, and there is also mobile network coverage.

⭐️Little Tips
✔Be sure to wear a pair of comfortable flat shoes for travel and sports
✔In high-altitude areas, pay attention to altitude sickness, you can bring a few bottles of oxygen to avoid running and jumping
✔The ultraviolet rays in high-altitude areas are very strong, so bring sun protection items, prioritize physical sun protection, and the wind is also strong, so hats can also block the wind

Yuzixi—a place whose name alone evokes romance! It's so beautiful
Yuzixi—it's like a star that has fallen to earth, quietly lying in the embrace of Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan, waiting for the devout visit of every stargazer. If you are a believer in the starry sky, longing to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, and to have a romantic encounter with the Milky Way, then please follow my writing and step into this visual and spiritual feast.
Specific Location
Yuzixi, located about 20 kilometers west of Xinduqiao Town in Kangding City, Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan Province, is hidden under the eastern slope of Mount Gongga. At an altitude of about 4200 meters, it is a secret place that has only been discovered by photography enthusiasts and stargazers in recent years.
Attraction Introduction
What makes Yuzixi most astonishing is its unparalleled stargazing landscape. As night falls, the Milky Way stretches across the sky like a ribbon, with stars twinkling as if within reach. Here, you can clearly see the brilliance of the Milky Way's center, and occasionally, shooting stars pass by, leaving behind a dazzling trail, prompting one to make a wish. In addition to the starry sky, the golden outline of Mount Gongga during sunrise and sunset, along with the unpredictable sea of clouds, is equally breathtaking.
Transportation Tips
- **Self-driving**: Depart from Chengdu and head west along National Highway G318. After passing through Kangding, continue to Xinduqiao and then turn west for about 20 kilometers on a dirt road to reach Yuzixi. It is recommended to drive an SUV or four-wheel drive vehicle, as some sections of the road are rugged.
- **Chartered/Shared Car**: For those who find self-driving inconvenient, you can find local travel agencies or drivers in Kangding or Xinduqiao Town to charter a car to go there, which is safer and more convenient.
Nearby Attractions Recommendations
1. **Xinduqiao**: Known as 'a paradise for photographers', the golden poplars in autumn and the distant mountains form a series of stunning paintings.
2. **Tagong Grassland**: Not far from Yuzixi, the grass is green in summer, wildflowers are everywhere, and you can also have a distant view of Mount Yala and experience Tibetan culture.
3. **Mount Gongga**: As the king of Sichuan mountains, whether hiking or viewing from a distance, you can feel its majestic grandeur.
Food Recommendations
- **Yak Meat Hot Pot**: On a cold plateau night, a steaming hot pot of yak meat is undoubtedly the best choice, with delicious meat that warms both the body and heart.
- **Tsampa and Butter Tea**: Experience authentic Tibetan meals, tsampa paired with rich butter tea, which not only replenishes energy but also lets you experience Tibetan culture.
Precautions
- **Altitude Sickness**: Due to the high altitude of Yuzixi, you may experience mild altitude sickness when first arriving on the plateau. It is recommended to prepare Rhodiola and other medicines in advance and take rest to adapt.
- **Warmth Measures**: The temperature difference between day and night is significant, especially when stargazing, please bring enough warm clothing, such as down jackets, gloves, hats.
- **Eco-friendly Travel**: Please respect nature, take away trash, and protect this pure land from pollution.
- **Respect Local Culture**: The area around Yuzixi is Tibetan, so please be mindful of your words and actions and respect local customs and traditions.

Fish Zixi: A Viewing Platform in Western Sichuan Shrouded in Mist.
The sound of camel bells jingling echoes through the towering mountains, as caravans transporting tea and driving horses stretch through the valleys. Whether it is mules or workers carrying tea bags, they all grit their teeth, with sweat dripping onto the dusty road. They have no extra energy to appreciate the passing lakes and mountains, their minds solely focused on delivering the goods to their destination.
One wonders if these hardworking individuals ever paused at a place now known as Fish Zixi. If they did stop to rest, they would surely be stunned by the breathtaking scenery before them. Would such beauty alleviate their fatigue as they admired the distant towering mountains amidst the swirling mist?
Standing on this viewing platform called Fish Zixi, one is presented with the mist-shrouded peaks of Siguniang Mountain, Gongga Snow Mountain, and Yala Snow Mountain.
Siguniang Mountain, as the name suggests, has four peaks, named Big Sister, Second Sister, Third Sister, and Little Sister Peak. The four peaks are snow-capped year-round, and Little Sister Peak, with an altitude of 6250 meters, is second only to Gongga Snow Mountain and is known as the 'Queen of Sichuan Mountains.'
Gongga Mountain, with an altitude of 7556 meters, is called the 'King of Sichuan Mountains.' 'Gong' means ice and snow, and 'Ga' means white, so Gongga Mountain means white ice mountain. Gongga Mountain is famous for its glaciers, with over 100 glaciers distributed at its base. The glaciers have eroded the peaks of Gongga Mountain into a pyramid shape, like a sharp sword piercing the blue sky.
Yala Snow Mountain, also known as Yala Snow Mountain due to transliteration issues, is fully named 'Xiaxue Yalagabo' in Tibetan, meaning 'Eastern White Yak Mountain.' Yala Snow Mountain has an altitude of 5884 meters. Although not as high as Gongga and Siguniang Mountains, it is renowned in the Kang region and is one of the four sacred mountains in the Tibetan area.
Each sacred mountain in the Tibetan area has its own mountain god. The mountain god of Yala Snow Mountain is the eldest son of the mountain god of Animaqing Mountain. Legend has it that there was no mountain god on Yala Mountain, so the gods requested Animaqing to send a mountain god. He then sent his eldest son, embodying the spirit of sacrifice, which gives Yala its meaning of sacrifice. The sentiment and wisdom expressed by the word 'sacrifice' make Yala Snow Mountain even more revered.
In fact, if the tea porters from over a thousand years ago had reached the Tagong Grassland at the foot of Yala Snow Mountain, they would have been even more amazed. The green grassland is dotted with colorful flowers, yaks, sheep, and horses grazing leisurely. The sunlight shines on the golden roof of Tagong Monastery, gleaming like another sun. The sky is filled with ethereal clouds, surrounding Yala Snow Mountain like a blooming lotus.
I believe such a scene would surely soothe their fatigue.
beautiful WILD
The aftereffects brought by Western Sichuan are even more intense than a heartbreak!
🎈The original picture of Mount Siguniang is straight out, and the aftereffects brought by Western Sichuan are even more intense than a heartbreak! Here comes the summary of my strategy for spending 1700+ on a customized small group tour⛰
If someone hasn't been to Mount Siguniang in the summer, I would really cry to death😭😭 It's really so beautiful that it hits right in the feels without any need for filters! Snow mountains, lakes, grasslands, yaks, log cabins, the beauty here is completely natural and doesn't need any excessive embellishment, 📷a casual snap is just like a blockbuster movie🤩🤩
🔸【Mount Siguniang】
It is divided into three scenic areas: Shuangqiao Valley, Changping Valley, and Haizi Valley. I highly recommend choosing Shuangqiao Valley, where you can enjoy the fun of hiking and also take a tour by car, which is not tiring at all! Shuangqiao Valley is the most developed valley in Mount Siguniang, with a scenic area tour bus that runs through the entire valley. The scenery in the valley is like a huge bonsai, with forests, snow mountains, streams, lakes, and meadows perfectly integrated, and many places will make you feel as if you are in Switzerland.
‼️If you can only choose one place to go in Western Sichuan, take a look at the Western Sichuan small loop, which really meets all travel needs. Spend three days visiting the essence spots like Fish West, Mugecuo, Zheduo Mountain, Moxi Park, Mount Siguniang Shuangqiao Valley, Tagong Grassland, etc.‼️
❗️❗️【Itinerary】
🍋Day1: Chengdu - Mao's Nose Ridge - Mount Siguniang Shuangqiao Valley - Danba
🍋Day2: Danba - Yala Snow Mountain Viewing Platform - Huiyuan Temple - Moxi Park - Tagong Grassland - Fish West - Xinduqiao
🍋Day3: Xinduqiao - Zheduo Mountain - Mugecuo - Chengdu
📌【Travel Guide】
Recommended travel dates: July every summer.
Exact location: Mount Siguniang Town, Xiaojin County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province.
Business hours: 7:30-15:30 (No entry into the park after 15:30).
Tickets: Ticket plus park sightseeing car 150 yuan/person.
✅【Preparations Before Departure】
1. Altitude sickness: I am the kind of person who easily gets altitude sickness, but going to Shuangqiao Valley is no problem. If you are worried, you can prepare some glucose, and if you feel hypoxic after entering the mountain, you can buy an oxygen can, which is available at almost every station for self-service sale.
2. Transportation: For friends who drive by themselves, if you are not often on this route, it is not recommended to drive by yourself. The roads in Western Sichuan are treacherous, especially during the rainy season, so be more cautious as the routes are complex and dangerous.
3. Accommodation: Accommodation is generally chosen in Rilong Town (Mount Siguniang Town), and there are homestays available for accommodation in Shuangqiao Valley, suitable for in-depth travel.
4. Weather: You can check the weather in Xiaojin County before departure, which is generally accurate. Even if it's cloudy on the road, it might be a different scene once you cross the mountain. When the sun comes out, it's really hot, so just wear some easy-to-take-off jackets.

Yuzixi is even more beautiful than I imagined, highly recommended!!!
🌿 Hello everyone, today I am going to take you into a mysterious and beautiful place—Yuzixi! Here, there are snow-capped mountains, grasslands, lakes, and those lovely yaks, it's truly a natural large pasture!
🏔️ As soon as you enter Yuzixi, the first thing that catches your eye is the rolling snow mountains, which stand like guardians, quietly watching over this land. At the foot of the snow mountains lies the vast grassland, with green grass like a carpet, as if a huge green carpet is spread out before your eyes.
🌊 There are many streams and lakes on the grassland, with crystal clear water reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, and distant snow mountains, like a mirror, capturing the beautiful scenery of nature. I also saw some small animals playing by the lake, which was so cute!
🚴♂️ In Yuzixi, I also experienced an exciting off-road cycling adventure. Riding through the grasslands and over the hills, the feeling of speed and exhilaration was truly blood-pumping! Moreover, the scenery along the way was so enchanting that I felt as if I was in a fairy tale world.
🍲 Besides the beautiful scenery, the food in Yuzixi is also unforgettable. Fresh yak meat, rich butter tea, and those special snacks, every bite made me taste the flavor of the plateau.
🌈 Overall, Yuzixi is a place full of surprises and beautiful scenery. If you have the chance to travel to Qinghai, don't miss it! Believe me, you will be amazed by its beauty!

Attention
! The entrance passage is closed daily at 19:00, so plan your travel time in advance (those who want to see the sunset and the starry sky, remember to go up the mountain early. The plateau sunlight is strong, remember to wear sunglasses!)
! If you are watching the sunset at the starry sky camp, it is recommended to prepare instant noodles to take with you, as a bowl of instant noodles costs 15 RMB and a serving of Kanto cooking costs 20 RMB (there will be a service station on the mountain to provide hot water)!
Fish West usually gets crowded around six o'clock, so it's suggested to go early. If you are at the starry sky camp, you can first rest at the service station, or stay in the small parking lot to watch the sunset from your car. If you're not staying on the mountain, remember to descend early! Otherwise, it will be very congested until dark (there are no street lights around)!
The temperature difference between day and night is significant, and the campsite is surrounded by open space with strong mountain winds, which can be very cold. It is essential to have a windbreaker and down jacket, otherwise, the wind on the highland mountain top can make you doubt your life.

The wind is the hope of freedom, and I hope you are too
Flipping through expired photos is always a glimmer of hope in the midst of exhausting work!! Take your favorite photos on the barren grasslands of Caviar West
Watch the sunset and the intermittent glimmer of the Golden Mountain by daylight
Sit on a wild motorcycle at the foot of the mountain
Gaze at the endless mountain ranges from the hillside
Witness the Golden Mountain by daylight disappear from existence at the summit of Lengga Co in the deep night, watch the Milky Way and wait for shooting stars
Words cannot describe the shock of this trip, the cold and the sheer joy

I captured the most beautiful photo of my life at Yu Zi Xi
🌟Highlights:
I must say, Yu Zi Xi is truly the epitome of sunset beauty. I wanted to wait for the 'golden sunshine on the mountain' moment, but due to time constraints, I didn't wait.
🚉Travel Tips:
I joined a tour group, and to get to Yu Zi Xi, you have to pay an additional ferry car fee of 120 RMB and a cleaning fee of 20 RMB. There's a professional driver to take you up since it's on the mountain top; the road is quite bumpy, and it's quite dusty. I suggest that friends who plan to go should prepare masks and sunglasses.

The romantic Yuzixi and the west wind are free, I hope you are too~.
Hi, I am Douya Mama who likes outdoor travel. There are always some things in this world that make you unforgettable! For example, sitting on a carousel, waiting for a gentle sunset, or standing on the top of the mountain, watching the sunset dye the entire mountain range golden, the winter in Yuzixi is the most beautiful season I think, possessing all the romance in the world.
Address: Navigate to Yuzixi Starry Sky Viewing Platform
Self-driving: It takes about 6h to drive from Chengdu. The last section is a gravel road. It is recommended to go by off-road vehicle. Small cars can also go up but must drive slowly
Tickets: 20 yuan per person
Photo and play guide:
1 View the snow mountain group
Yuzixi is known as the high mountain and evening snow, and because it can look at Gongga Snow Mountain from a distance, and look at Yala Snow Mountain up close, it continues to attract many people to play
2 Swing road sign
This is a swing under the snow mountain, the photo is very out of the picture, there are also Yuzixi road signs next to it, you can check in and take pictures together
3 The sun shines on the golden mountain
Of course, coming to Yuzixi is to see the sun shining on the golden mountain. When the sun sets in the west, the golden sunlight shines on the mountains, making the entire mountain dyed with a layer of golden glow, so unrealistically beautiful
Travel Tips:
The altitude here is about 4000 meters, so don't run or exercise vigorously to avoid high anti-phenomenon
The temperature on the top of the mountain is relatively low now, and the wind is very strong. Be sure to prepare warm clothes, hats, scarves and warm babies in advance
The sunset in Yuzixi in winter is around six to seven o'clock, be sure to wait in advance to avoid missing it
Okay, that's it for today's sharing. Sisters, hurry up and take this Yuzixi attack road, and go to see a romantic sun shining on the golden mountain with your favorite person

Sichuan West Travel Guide / Small and Popular Secret Places / Customized Services
Mr. Luigi Russel Jr.
Instead of the popular Xichang, I recommend these less-known hidden gems!
In the mysterious land of Western Sichuan, there are countless astonishing hidden places. Whether it's the sea of flowers in spring or the greenery in summer, there's always a beautiful scene that makes people linger. Today, I want to recommend to you those hidden gems that are less popular and more charming than the internet-famous check-in spots. Whether you are on a long holiday during the Spring Festival or on a short trip, you can drive there to experience the beauty that is rarely known.
🔥【Off-season, less crowded scenic spots】
✅Mount Siguniang (Xiaojin County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province)
This place, known as the 'Swiss scenery', is definitely worth visiting with your family. The snow mountains in Shuangqiao Valley are close at hand, and there are exciting rafting projects for you to play. The snow covering the road in winter is breathtakingly beautiful.
✅Daocheng Yading (Daocheng County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province)
Daocheng Yading, a place that makes people yearn for. The unique mountain and river scenery here is an ideal place for girls to take pictures. No matter how others evaluate it, you should come and experience the wonders of nature.
✅Bipenggou (Lixian County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province)
A summer resort in summer and a snow paradise in winter. The ticket is only 130 yuan, with high cost performance! The Shanghaizi Trail and the waterfall and swing under Panyang Lake are excellent places for photo check-ins.
✅Dagu Glacier (Heishui County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province)
The Dagu Glacier in winter is dreamy and beautiful, with snow-covered peaks and distant blue lakes reflecting each other. The coffee house here is also a popular place for photo check-ins.
【Less-known hidden gems in Western Sichuan】
🌲Moon Lake (Kangding City, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province)
Compared to the popular Xichang, the flow of people in Moon Lake is much less. But the scenery here is no less than anywhere else, with mountains, lakes, cattle and sheep, it's an excellent place for camping, hiking, and relaxing.
⛺️Gunong Village (Tagong Town, Kangding City, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province)
Gunong Village is not a real village, but a beautiful camping site near Tagong Town, a 10-minute drive away. Here you can find streams, snow mountains, grasslands and Tibetan wooden houses, as if it's a gathering place of nature's charm.
🌃Siye Yala (Yala Township, Kangding City, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province)
Although many people know about Muya Temple, the hidden gem of Siye Yala is rarely known. The camping site, which is only a 15-minute drive away, is an ideal place to take beautiful photos. In the evening, you can enjoy the spectacular sunset, and at night, you can look up at the brilliant starry sky.
🏔️Xiaze Tong Village (Litang County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province)
This is the hometown of Ding Zhen, and also the location of a European-style log cabin hidden on the hillside. In summer, the mountains are full of wild flowers, forming a beautiful picture.
There are too many astonishing hidden gems hidden in the land of Western Sichuan. In addition to the places mentioned above, there are also the Eye of Ge'nyen, Zebavillage, Gemu Village, Cuopugou, Seda, Mao Ya Prairie and other places that are equally beautiful.

⚠️Tips for playing
Be sure to bring cash, many places in Western Sichuan have no signal.
The temperature difference between morning and evening on the plateau is large, so prepare enough clothes just in case.
It's best to drive a powerful SUV to Western Sichuan, because many hidden places have potholes on the road.

It is said that encountering the sun shining on the golden mountain in Yuzixi will bring you luck for a whole year
It is said that encountering the sun shining on the golden mountain in Yuzixi will bring you luck for a whole year.
I heard that the chance of seeing the sun shining on the golden mountain in Yuzixi is much higher in winter. I was really lucky to see it in the last month of 2023! But the top of the mountain is really super cold! The wind is super strong! I was almost blown away.
Yuzixi is located on the top of the mountain in Yuzixi Village, Xinduqiao, Kangding City, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province. It is a 360-degree viewing platform at an altitude of about 4100m. It is surrounded by snow-capped mountains 360°, and you can see scenic spots such as Yala Snow Mountain, Four Girls Mountain, and Gongga Mountains. Standing on the top of the mountain here, you can see the vast Gongga and Yala two snow mountains.
Suggestion !! !!Friends who go must wear warm clothes! Bring a good hat and gloves. Warm baby! It will really freeze! The head is easily blown by the snow wind and it is easy to have a headache!!! XXX does not recommend coming to Yuzixi as soon as you come to western Sichuan, it is easy to have high anti! (Be sure to buy oxygen cylinders and cola in advance, cola can supplement sugar) Don't exercise vigorously because you are too excited! It's easy to pant!
!!The most important thing is not to take a bath at night! The body can't stand it! Unless you want to lie flat the next day
Address: Navigation Yuzixi Starry Sky Viewing Platform
Ticket: 20 yuan
The mountain road is rugged, drive carefully! We were led by familiar people, it is recommended to check the sunset time of the day in advance, arrive one hour before the sunset, hide in the car to avoid the wind, and enjoy the scenery! Go out and take pictures almost before sunset, the sun shines on the golden mountain only for a moment, you have to act fast! Finally, I wish all the friends who are going to play have a good time

Sichuan West|Balang Shengdu & Yuzi West Comprehensive Answer
🌟Analyze the differences, similarities, and precautions of Balang Shengdu and Yuzi West
The same point is to watch Yala Snow Mountain and Gongga Snow Mountain, but the snow mountain position is biased
📍Balang Shengdu p2-p6
The location is in the direction of Balang Shengdu Village on Tagong Grassland
After a good cement road, you will walk for about 30 minutes on a bad road to reach the Starry Sky Camp in Balang Shengdu Village
🎫A environmental protection cleaning fee of 20/person is required (except for the driver)
Balang Shengdu is one of the best positions to watch Yala Snow Mountain (see Figure 3
And there are car props in front of the snow mountain for everyone to take pictures
If you want to see Gongga Snow Mountain, you can see Gongga Snow Mountain in the distance by walking about 10 minutes to the right and up the mountain after entering Balang Shengdu. You can also choose to ride a horse up (see Figure 3)
✒️Summary
1. One of the best positions to watch Yala Snow Mountain
2. Generally not congested, the road is wider
3. The clouds are more beautiful, brighter, and redder at sunset
📍Yuzi West p1 p8-p9
The location is near Xinduqiao
After a good cement road, drive around the mountain. The mountain road is also a cement road, but the disadvantage is that it is very difficult to meet! This is also the reason for the congestion in Yuzi West
🎫After arriving in Yuzi West, you need to pay a parking fee, but if you stop far away, no one will come to collect it
Yuzi West is one of the best positions to watch Gongga Snow Mountain (see Figure 1
To see Yala Snow Mountain, you have to go further, but you don't need to climb like Balang Shengdu
✒️Summary
1. One of the best viewing points for Gongga Snow Mountain
2. When the weather is good, it is very easy to get stuck! If you want to see the sunrise, you can't pinch the time. The sunset time is around 8 o'clock, and you can't leave Xinduqiao at 6.40. Because at this time there will be a lot of cars coming down from Yuzi West, you will be in a dilemma on the uphill section. In the end, the sky is dark... so it is recommended to set off at more than 5 o'clock, only wait on it, and then park the car in a more outside position, otherwise the car will be stuck in the end😢
These are my 🩸 lessons and experiences
Comparison of the two
1. Balang Shengdu is more upright and closer to see Yala Snow Mountain than Yuzi West
2. Yuzi West is slightly closer to see Gongga Snow Mountain than Balang Shengdu Village🤌🏻
3. Balang Shengdu is not congested whether it is off-season or peak season, but Yuzi West is very congested during peak season‼️
4. I think the sunset in Balang Shengdu is a bit more beautiful, and the sunset clouds are more beautiful👀
5. Both places will have bad roads, but the distance in Balang Shengdu is longer, and Yuzi West is almost there, but the road in Yuzi West is narrower than Balang Shengdu
6. If it is cloudy and cloudy, then both have almost nothing to see, because the snow mountain is completely blocked😿
⚠️Precautions
1. The wind is strong at night in both places, pay attention to protection and warmth, especially the head
2. The place where Balang Shengdu Starry Sky Camp takes pictures will not be blocked by parked cars, but after taking a sunset in Yuzi West, the back may be full of cars
3. It is recommended to drive a high-chassis car to Balang Shengdu. If you can't drive up, you can see Yala Snow Mountain on the way, but the position of Balang Shengdu is higher
CADEN BECKER
I've discovered a super beautiful place - Yuzixi
Best viewing time⌛️
The best time to watch the sunset at Yuzixi is to arrive at the camp before five in the afternoon, quietly waiting for the orange sunset of Yuzixi to fill the bright stars in the sky, every time I see such a beautiful scene, I'm moved to tears.
Cost💳
Yuzixi Starry Sky Camp is currently free of charge, but there will be a cleaning fee of 10 yuan per person during the peak season.
Toilets along the way: 1 yuan per time.
Grocery store on the top of the mountain: 20 yuan per person for indoor rest, 10 yuan per portion for instant noodles, free for outdoor rest.
Recommended route🚖
①Depart from Chengdu - Xinduqiao Town - Yuzixi Second Village
②After arriving at Yuzixi Second Village, search for Yuzixi Starry Sky Camp, continue to move forward and you will see a conspicuous white wall 'Four Good Rural Roads', remember to take the right road, this is a newly built cement road, whether it is a car or SUV can easily pass without pressure, about half an hour can reach the top.
Accommodation🏠
1. Yuzixi Starry Sky Camp is currently closed, after consulting the boss, it is expected to open after the Spring Festival, you can currently take pictures at the camp for free. Staying at the Starry Sky Camp is also the first choice for watching sunrise and starry sky.
2. You can also set up your own tent on the top of the mountain, about 100 yuan per top, it is quite cold on the top of the mountain, be sure to keep warm.
3. There are more accommodations in Xinduqiao Town, the average price is about 200 yuan per room to ensure cleanliness and hygiene.
High altitude sickness🎚
The highest altitude of Yuzixi is 4200 meters, high altitude sickness mainly depends on individual physical conditions, if you have never been to the plateau before, you will generally have high altitude sickness, but the severity of high altitude sickness varies, it is recommended to prepare oxygen cylinders in advance (average price 15-20 per can, be sure to bargain). After climbing the mountain, it is also recommended to walk slowly, gradually adapt to the plateau climate. Keeping a calm mindset is also two factors to avoid or alleviate the symptoms of high altitude sickness.
Precautions❗️❗️
1️⃣In winter, the altitude of the mountain top is higher and the wind is stronger, be sure to bring warm down jackets or storm jackets, snow boots or shoes with good thermal insulation. Large scarves, hats, gloves, sunglasses, headache medicine are recommended to carry.
2️⃣You can prepare some extra snacks for hunger when waiting, there are also grocery stores on the mountain, but the prices will be slightly higher, it is best to bring self-heating hot pot up, very satisfying.
3️⃣Usually, there is no problem climbing the mountain according to the route I shared, but if it snows, the road surface is slippery, if conditions permit, you can prepare anti-skid chains in advance, everyone must pay attention to safety when driving on icy roads, safety first.

🌈【Murmur】
I was speechless by the scenery of Ganzi all the way.
The altitude rises all the way, and a severe headache strikes.
Helpless while watching the beautiful scenery on the road.
There is no end ahead, and it's too regretful to look back.
Staring at the high altitude sickness, headache and fever, I completed the whole journey.
A place where you will only go once in your lifetime.
It must be this route in Ganzi.

University students who only have 3-7 days off during the National Day and want to see snow-capped mountains, hot springs, and rafting must come here
A 6-day multi-experience self-driving route without turning back.
Day 1 - Chengdu
Landed in Chengdu, rented a car near the airport, and went straight to the city to eat hot pot.
Day 2 - Kangding
Everyone's mental state is still excited, singing and filming videos along the way to the first stop, Kangding. Entering Kangding City, the whole small city gives people a full sense of Tibetan style, so we decided to try Tibetan food for the first meal, chose Tibetan Banquet, the restaurant is hidden in the residential building, there are not many seats, the space is also relatively small, but in the cold weather at that time, the Tibetan-style decoration at the door, matched with the smoke and fire of the hot pot, gives a warm feeling like home, the dishes are also full of Tibetan characteristics, I highly recommend it.
After dinner, we took a short walk nearby, enjoyed the night view of Kangding, and stayed at Guishan Homestay about 1h drive from the city. The homestay includes a hot spring, but it is relatively primitive. The environment of the homestay is good, but the environment of the hot spring is average.
Day 3 - Mugecuo - Honghaizi - Yuzixi
Early in the morning, we had breakfast at the homestay and went to Mugecuo Scenic Area. We arrived at the entrance of the scenic area and changed to the scenic area bus. We followed the mountain road to the end and got off the bus to Mugecuo. With the snow-capped mountains as the background, the alpine lake is in front of you, the wind blows over the lake and ripples, at this moment, I just want to look at it in a daze.
After lunch, we continued to drive to Honghaizi. Unlike the name, I don't understand why it is named Red Sea. The navigation needs to be added to Gagacuo, which is also to see the lake and snow-capped mountains.
Relying on the night not yet falling, continue to rush to Yuzixi to watch the sunset. Unfortunately, the weather is not beautiful, heavy rain slows down the uphill road, the road conditions are really not very friendly, all the way down the mountain are only our car uphill, many places are very narrow, when overtaking need to be particularly careful, even once wanted to give up downhill, after several struggles, when preparing to turn around, met a Chengdu brother rolled down the car window, came a sentence came to play up, rekindled our interest followed the brother's car up the mountain, although the viewing platform has fallen night and it is raining heavily, but the partners on the road and the people and things encountered, is the most interesting...

Fish West Snow Scene
Fish West, a very niche snow mountain viewing platform, is located between Tagong Grassland and Xindu Bridge, with an altitude of up to 4200 meters, it can be said to be a beautiful treasure in the clouds. The Qumogong platform on the top of Fish West Village allows you to overlook the three big snow mountains in western Sichuan, especially at sunset, the golden sun shines on the golden mountain and the soft sunset glow, which is fascinating.
