🌟April brings not only sunshine, breezes, and dew, but also the blooming of Davidia involucrata trees~ 🍀As a tree species unique to China, Davidia involucrata is known as the 'green panda' and 'living fossil of plants', and is a precious plant among China's first-class protected endangered species. It is also the mascot for the 2024 Chengdu World Horticultural Exposition. 🌲Every year at the end of spring and beginning of summer, the Davidia involucrata trees bloom fragrantly, with clusters of white flowers dancing in the wind on the branches, resembling doves in flight, hence it is also called 'dove tree', symbolizing 'peace and friendship'❗️ 🍃Like the giant panda, the Davidia involucrata flower is a treasure bestowed upon Dujiangyan by nature. Currently, the Davidia involucrata flowers in Dujiangyan are blooming beautifully, so come and witness their charm! 🍃The flowers of Davidia involucrata are pure white and elegant. When they bloom, the flowers do not have petals, but are wrapped in two bracts of different sizes, enclosing a dark purple spherical pistil. 🌿In the most beautiful April when flowers bloom like brocade, if you have the chance, you can go to places like Dujiangyan Yijie District, Nanqiao Square, Longxi Hongkou National Nature Reserve, Qianhou Mountain of Qingcheng, and Jiangnan Yi Manor to witness the blooming of Davidia involucrata trees!

If you want to relax, climbing a mountain might be a good choice. I went there in early June when it was raining, but the misty rain made the whole mountain look even more beautiful. The process was also interesting. The back mountain of Qingcheng gave me a feeling of tranquility. At a glance, it was all green, very friendly to my eyes, and I was crazily inhaling oxygen. There are many streams and small waterfalls running through the mountains. Sitting on the Baiyun Cableway and looking at the misty Qingcheng Mountain was like entering a fairyland. All the photos were taken with the original camera of the phone, I liked it so much!

Not seeking for Taoism, but for tranquility|Detailed guide for a light hike in Qingcheng Mountain||'Bai Suzhen under Qingcheng Mountain, cultivating herself in the cave for a thousand years, ah~ah~' When you come to Qingcheng Mountain, you will inevitably hum this lyric. The legend is beautiful, but I want to say, Qingcheng Mountain is more beautiful than the legend. ❤️My feelings ⛰️Clear: A day's happiness comes from greedily taking a breath of mountain air, as if the air is sweet. ⛰️Green: The mountain is full of green, no matter winter or summer, through the green pines, along the mountain road to the depth, for a light hike. ⛰️Secluded: People say Qingcheng Mountain is for seeking Taoism, but I am not seeking Taoism in this journey, but for tranquility, Qingcheng Mountain is the most secluded in the world. 💡Answer two questions 🔸Q: Which one to choose, the front mountain or the back mountain of Qingcheng Mountain? 🔹A: The front mountain has many historical relics and cultural remains, mainly humanistic landscapes; the back mountain has waterfalls and deep forests, mainly natural landscapes. So just for the scenery and photo shooting, I recommend going to the back mountain. 🔸Q: How long does it take to climb Qingcheng Mountain? Can I go to Dujiangyan on the same day? 🔹A: Absolutely possible, but you need to measure your strength. My experience is that it takes about 5 hours for the front mountain and about 7 hours for the back mountain, including hiking, short rest, and photo shooting. It's feasible to go to Dujiangyan after visiting the front mountain, or to go to Dujiangyan after walking half of the back mountain. Although there is enough time, you are usually tired after climbing Qingcheng Mountain, so you need to measure your strength. 【Transportation】 🚘Self-driving: Navigate to Qingcheng Mountain, which is located at Qingcheng Mountain Station (intercity train station), with a parking lot nearby. 🚄Train: You can take Metro Line 2/6 to Xipu Station in Chengdu city area, and then transfer to the intercity train to Qingcheng Mountain Station (buy the train ticket in advance, 10 yuan per person, about 30 minutes). 【To the scenic area】 ➡️After arriving at Qingcheng Mountain Intercity Train Station, cross the road opposite, buy the electric car to the main entrance of the scenic area under the ancient style archway, 20 yuan for one way, 35 yuan for round trip, about 10 minutes. It's 2 kilometers to walk there, not close. After getting off the electric car, walk another 200 meters to the ticket office. 【Scenic area ticket】 🎟️80 yuan per person, half price for students, no need to buy the 5 yuan map brochure. 【Tour strategy】 After entering the gate, walk up for a while, at the red mark in Figure 18, there will be two roads, the left road to 'Natural Painting' (hiking up the mountain), the right road to 'Moon City Lake' (taking the cable car up the mountain). ☑️Physical exertion: Walk up the left road, walk down the right road, 4-5 hours ✅My suggestion: Walk up the left road, take the cable car down the right road, 4 hours ☑️Knee injury: Take the cable car up the right road, walk down the left road, 3.5-4 hours I personally took the third route, and my knee was directly scrapped😭, and it hurt for several days. 【Reference route】 ↗️Up the mountain Mountain gate→Natural Painting→Quanzhen View→Five Holes Heaven→Tianshi Cave→Throwing Pen Slot→Chaoyang Cave→Laojun Pavilion ↘️Down the mountain Laojun Pavilion→Shangqing Palace→Cableway (10 minutes of cableway operation)→Moon City Lake (no need to take a boat, 5 minutes walk)→Mountain gate 【To Dujiangyan】 See my Dujiangyan guide on my homepage 🚘Driving Take the car at the ticket office of the mountain gate sightseeing electric car, buy the whole journey to Qingcheng Mountain Station, go to the parking lot to get the car 🚖Taxi Take the car at the ticket office of the mountain gate sightseeing electric car, buy half of the journey is enough! No need to buy the whole journey. After the half-way station, walk 200 meters out of the scenic area to take a taxi. Take it to Yangtianwo Square.

Today, I want to take everyone into the beautiful rear mountain of Qingcheng, to explore the treasures of nature together.🌲🌳 Firstly, departing from Xipu in Chengdu, the journey to Qingcheng Mountain is not complicated, but there is one thing to note. Once you arrive at Qingcheng Mountain station, you have to choose how to get to the rear mountain scenic area. We chose a method that cost 40 yuan, but in fact, you only need to spend 20 yuan. There's no need to take the shuttle bus for 20 yuan; it's only a one or two-kilometer walk, which is easy and saves money.🚶‍♂️💰 Next, there are cars from Baiyun Mountain Top that go directly to Qingcheng Mountain station, costing 70 yuan per person. This price seems a bit high, but interestingly, they say that if you choose to take the cable car down the mountain, it costs 75 yuan, but they only charge 70 yuan. This is somewhat confusing; do you have to take both cable cars?😅🤔 Finally, the cable car near Wanfo Cave charges 45 yuan per person for the descent. The information we found before we went was 30 yuan, and we don't know why the price increased. Since there were five of us, we unanimously decided to walk down the mountain and then go for a big meal of skewers, which was more cost-effective.🍢👣 Overall, the trip to the rear mountain of Qingcheng is full of surprises and challenges. As long as you prepare well and avoid some unnecessary expenses, you can enjoy an unforgettable hiking trip. I hope my sharing can help everyone, and I wish you all a pleasant travel experience in the rear mountain of Qingcheng!🎉🏞️

📃Written in front I really like the back mountain of Qingcheng. The combination of house and green moss and white snow really has the taste of searching for ancient times in the deep mountains, and the bridges in the mountains have a kind of Jiangnan feeling. I observed the moss and trees I liked. I saw several single-petal white camellia trees, white petals and golden stamens, and the same color scheme as daffodils. I like tree branches carrying snow, like two strokes of traditional Chinese painting. I met the black-throated red-tailed robin and the spotted swallowtail. I saw beautiful green jelly water. I climbed the heart-suspension canyon road. Walking under the tall cypress trees is like entering a forest. After putting on new ice claws on the ice and snow road section, you must step on the ice, and you are as happy as you must step on the water when wearing rain boots. I didn't go to Cuiying Lake to take a boat today, I will go next time! The round trip on the same day cost a total of more than one hundred yuan, and the sense of happiness is super strong. Transportation: 🚄Xipu Station—Qingcheng Mountain Station, round trip 20 yuan. 🚌After exiting the station, follow the sign to the third platform and take the bus to the back mountain ticket office (walk about 100 meters after getting off), round trip 30 yuan. ⛰️Admission ticket, 20 yuan 🚠Jinli cable car, one way 30 yuan. The Baiyun cable car to the top of the mountain is currently closed. Important reminder‼️ There is ice in the mountain, bringing ice claws is the most correct choice! Walk with peace of mind, the road is under your feet and your heart is in your stomach!

Homestay | The first snow in 2024, the last time I saw snow was at Ramada in Li County People in Chengdu are very excited to see the sun and snow, dancing with their hands and feet I thought about staying in Qingcheng Mountain for a while, and I started to see snow when I drove to the mountainside, The snow was even bigger when I got up this morning I really love this homestay in the back mountain of Qingcheng, Shanding Life, It's cheaper on Monday, 500 yuan, including breakfast for two The room I chose is Palm Jiao, with two windows. The other more expensive rooms have soup pools, but I think it's cold in this weather, and it's okay not to soak in the hot spring of the homestay
