Relax, take your time, and don't rush. This is how you should spend your Mid-Autumn Festival! Western Sichuan Camping Guide🏕 Destination: Jiagenba Camping in Xinduqiao Estimated time: 3 days during the Mid-Autumn Festival Guide: Day 1: Depart from Chengdu - Luding Expressway Exit - Zheduo Mountain - Yuzixi Starry Sky Campsite 1. After exiting the Luding Expressway, you can visit the Luding Bridge and learn about the Red Army's heroic feat of capturing the Luding Bridge! ⭐Parking fee: CNY20; entrance fee: CNY5/person; time required: 30 minutes; you can have lunch at the food street. 2. Depart from Luding and pass Zheduo Mountain. ⭐Zheduo Mountain is the first pass in Kangba, with an altitude of over 4,000 meters. It takes about 1 hour and is free. 3. Depart from Zheduo Mountain and navigate directly to the Yuzixi Starry Sky Campsite for camping! ⭐First navigate to Yuzixi Village 3, then navigate to the Starry Sky Campsite. You can enjoy the sunset, starry sky, and sunrise. Camping is free, CNY30/person (free for teachers, military personnel, etc., no verification required). Day 2: Yuzixi - Jiagenba 1. You can navigate directly to the Ankang Starry Sky Campsite. ⭐This campsite is located in Jiagenba and has hot water and clean toilets. CNY70/tent (more expensive than other campsites), but the environment is really good. There are wooden platforms and lawns to choose from, and you can choose to stay in a tent. The owner can also take you to see marmots, and you can have barbecue at night. 2. After settling in, you can rest and then head to Riju Village. ⭐Riju Village has beautiful scenery along the way. You can park and take photos by the river, or set up a small table and have tea or coffee. As for the Songdonije recommended by other bloggers, it is not necessary to go there. After all, I am not very willing to accept the act of charging CNY20 for blocking the road with a wooden pole. 3. Return to Riju Village and go to the Sky Garden to see the sunrise over the mountains and take photos and drink coffee. ⭐CNY25/car. The road is dusty, but it's worth it when you reach the top. You can see the snow-capped mountains from the top (as for the sunrise over the mountains, it depends on your luck). Buy a cup of coffee and sit down to enjoy the relaxed feeling of a day trip to the camp. For me, it's more meaningful than taking a dangerous motorcycle to another viewing platform. Day 3: Jiagenba - Xinduqiao - Chengdu 1. Since you're already here, why not visit Xinduqiao and experience what it's like to be a photographer's paradise? ⭐It's free here, and you can go to some photo spots and then have some local yak beef soup pot. Although the taste is not very special. 2. After strolling around, drive back to Chengdu. If time permits, you can also visit Tagong Grassland and Gumnong Village. The above is just the route I have personally taken. I hope it will be helpful to netizens!
