🚗 1.5 hours from Chengdu to Pingle Ancient Town 🚄 Chengdu South-Qionglai Station 39 minutes 27 Western Sichuan Bamboo Sea - a natural oxygen bar, the scenic area contains natural canyons, tens of thousands of acres of natural bamboo forest growth areas, ecological streams, high-altitude suspension bridges, and glass walkways; the scenic area includes a visitor center, sightseeing driveways, walking trails, cableways, etc.; there are also rest areas, toilets, and beverage sales along the way The whole journey through the Western Sichuan Bamboo Sea takes about 3 hours. Throughout the mountain, you are sheltered by bamboo and hardly exposed to the sun, except on the glass bridge at the mountain top. Overall, the air is very good, and the temperature is not too hot. It's highly recommended to visit occasionally to relax and enjoy the natural scenery. Note: Buying tickets one day in advance is a few yuan cheaper than buying on the same day. If you don't mind, you can also buy them when you arrive. There is a small train included in one of the tickets, but this train is not part of the Western Sichuan Bamboo Sea attractions; it's next to the entrance of the scenic area. A local uncle mentioned it just goes around here. It's nice to see the rapeseed flowers when they bloom, but there are no rapeseed flowers this season. The cableway inside the scenic area was under maintenance, so it was not experienced. Some people think that the mineral water inside the scenic area is expensive and prefer to buy it outside. In fact, the price of mineral water inside the scenic area is the same as outside, three yuan. It's best to buy from the vending machines inside the scenic area. After passing the glass walkway and reaching the mountain top, there is a rest area without mineral water, but other items are quite expensive. The paths are easy to walk, and there are places to wade in the water along the way. Some people even climb the mountain in slippers, with the main attraction being wading. It's advised not to carry too much when climbing, just some small snacks. Pingle Ancient Town - a not-so-large ancient town with many homestays, chess and card rooms, and teahouses. It's not too commercialized and is suitable for a short stay. Around five or six in the afternoon, when the sun is about to set, it's nice to wade in the river. There are quite a few people, and some swim in the river, but the water doesn't seem very clear. There's also an old man playing the electric piano on the bridge, creating a really good atmosphere and a strong sense of the local people's enthusiasm. In the ancient town, normal accommodations, dining, and leisure are quite convenient. If you're looking for special local products, there isn't much variety. Key point: The food is really not recommended. I tried a few places, but the taste was just average, so I don't suggest spending a lot of money on gourmet food. The famously special lamb and milk soup noodles were not impressive, just ordinary, so don't come just for the food. There are also many fun activities nearby, including rafting, go-karting, mountain off-roading, and blueberry picking.

The summer vacation is approaching, and the beauty of Western Sichuan in summer is overwhelming. However, traditional routes like the 318 are often crowded and prone to traffic jams. If you want to avoid the hustle and bustle, consider taking the less popular 317 route. This route is not only less crowded with tourists but also boasts enchanting scenery. Let's talk about the itinerary of this route in detail: On the first day, depart from Chengdu and take the Yakang Expressway to Kangding, then follow Provincial Road 434 straight to Tagong. In Tagong, you can appreciate the grandeur of the grasslands before heading directly to Dawu. Once you leave Tagong, the traffic on the road will significantly decrease. On the second day, travel from Dawu to Garze County. Along the way, the Kasar Lake and numerous grassland landscapes are intoxicating and exceptionally beautiful. After arriving in Garze County, don't miss the hundred-mile barley gallery outside the county. In summer, the barley fields and snowy meadows complement each other, creating a stunningly beautiful scene. On the third day, set out from Garze County to Xinluhai. The scenery of Xinluhai is breathtakingly beautiful, not inferior to the lakes on the 318 route. After enjoying the afternoon there, if you wish to continue, head to Dege; if not, return to Garze County. On the fourth day, return from Garze County. You can choose to return the same way, or you can take a detour from Luhuo to the route to Barkam, and then return to Chengdu via Barkam and Lixian. The route from Luhuo to Barkam and then to Lixian has many valley scenic areas, with the Lover's Lake near Barkam and Bipenggou near Lixian being particularly representative. For self-driving trips, be sure to pay attention to safety and also protect the environment.
