The ultimate scenic spot in Western Sichuan! Combining snow-capped mountains, lakes, grasslands, and hot springs, a healing journey that feels timeless at a glance

If you ask me to recommend a place that represents the ultimate beauty of Western Sichuan, I would say its name without hesitation. It condenses all the beauty of Western Sichuan: towering snow mountains, crystal-clear lakes, vast grasslands, steaming hot springs, and herds of wild animals. It’s like a carefully preserved dream waiting for you to discover. 🎁 Four gifts that Cuopu Valley offers to children: First gift: The Mirror of Nature — Cuopu Lake. Its waters are crystal clear, reflecting Mount Zha Jin Jia Bo, unbelievably beautiful. Take the kids to the "Wishing Spot" by the lake and shout out loud; it’s said the louder the voice, the higher the fountain sprays. The kids have a blast playing here. Second gift: Animal Kingdom — The Plateau Pasture. On the grassland, we encountered Tibetan antelopes, marmots, and herds of yaks. It was the kids’ first time seeing so many animals in the wild; their little faces flushed with excitement as they learned to quietly observe through binoculars. Third gift: Geothermal Wonder — The Re Keng Hot Spring Group. Along the boardwalk, you can see hot spring vents steaming everywhere, with the air filled with the scent of sulfur. You can try boiling eggs in the hot spring water; watching the eggs roll in the natural boiling water is the most vivid science lesson for the kids. Fourth gift: The Sound of Faith — Cuopu Temple. This ancient temple faces the sacred snowy mountain lake, peaceful and serene. Take the kids for a stroll outside the temple, watch the fluttering prayer flags and spinning prayer wheels, and experience a unique cultural atmosphere. 📋 Play checklist (follow it to not miss anything): [ ] Take a photo of the snow mountain’s reflection by Cuopu Lake. [ ] Shout loudly at the fountain and watch the water spray. [ ] Look for marmots on the grassland, but please do not approach or feed them. [ ] Boil a “hot spring egg” by hand at the hot spring vents. [ ] Feel a moment of tranquility in front of Cuopu Temple. The scenery here is so rich in layers, every turn brings a surprise. Although the journey is long, when you see the view before you, you’ll feel all the effort was worth it. This is definitely a place that should be on your must-visit list in a lifetime.
