Jiang'an Riverside｜A Secret Cycling Spot with Osmanthus and Rice Waves Accessible by Subway, Miss It and Wait a Year!

In Chengdu, there’s actually a cycling route that blends the scent of osmanthus and rice into the breeze, and you can reach it directly by subway. Now is the perfect time to go! 🚴‍♀️ How to ride the route? Start from Exit C of Jinxing Subway Station, leisurely ride all the way to Yitian Taoyuan in Wenjiang, then weave through the Jiang'an River Greenway, finally check in at Helin Rice Sea, and finish at Huangshi Subway Station. The whole trip is about 20KM, with gentle terrain that even beginners can handle~ 🌿 How stunning is the scenery along the way? • The Jiang'an River Greenway is like a jade ribbon winding along the riverbank. Layers of shade, bamboo groves, and rice fields overlap. The osmanthus is in full bloom these days, and the breeze while cycling is filled with sweet fragrance—truly a natural “Avenue of Aromas”! • On the road section from Jiang'an River to Helin Rice Sea, plane trees line the way, and you can occasionally catch glimpses of osmanthus trees and rice fields. Every snapshot is a healing scene~ • The rice fields at Helin Rice Sea look like a yellow and green carpet, with a small patch of wetland forest nearby. When tired from riding, have a coffee here and stroll through the woods—absolutely perfect! 💡 Thoughtful tips: 90% of the greenway is shaded, making for a very cool ride; the road section can be sunny at times, and there’s little shade near the rice sea wetland, so remember to wear sunscreen~
