Just returned from Seda, the pitfalls have been stepped on for you

Here's the guide. In the remote western Sichuan plateau, there is a land dyed red by faith—Seda. Here, it is the spiritual destination for practitioners, and a stunning spectacle in the eyes of travelers. Thousands of red wooden houses are built along the mountains, resembling red lotus flowers blooming in the valleys, telling stories about faith and perseverance. 🏞️【Attraction Introduction: A Visual Feast that Shocks the Soul】🏞️ • Larung Gar Buddhist Academy: The world's largest Tibetan Buddhist academy, with tens of thousands of monks' huts densely scattered across the mountains. When night falls, countless lights decorate this red ocean like stars, tranquil and sacred. • Sky Burial Site: A place that profoundly makes one comprehend the cycle of life. Although the ceremony is solemn and somewhat mysterious, it is an indispensable lesson in understanding Tibetan culture. • Mandala: Located at the center of the Buddhist academy, the golden mandala is not only a sacred place for turning prayer wheels and praying for blessings but also the focus of photographers' lenses. Turning the prayer wheels, each rotation is a purification of the soul. 🚗【Transportation Strategy: Crossing Thousands of Mountains and Rivers, Just to Witness Its True Beauty】🚗 • Plane + Car: You can first fly to Chengdu, then take a long-distance bus directly to Seda from Chadianzi Bus Station in Chengdu. Although the journey is long, the scenery along the way is picturesque, enough to comfort the fatigue of the journey. • Self-driving: Recommended for those who seek freedom and adventure. Drive along National Highway 317, crossing snow mountains and grasslands, with endless beautiful scenery along the way, but be mindful of driving safety on the plateau. 🍲【Culinary Exploration: The Taste of Tibetan Flavors】🍲 • Tsampa: A simple yet energy-packed Tibetan staple, best accompanied by butter tea, the best replenishment during the journey. • Yak Meat: A delicacy unique to the plateau, with fresh and nutritious meat. Whether stewed or grilled, it is a gourmet dish not to be missed. • Highland Barley Wine: A drink that warms the body and heart, and is the best medium for exchanging feelings with local friends. 📅【Itinerary: Four Days and Three Nights, A Deep Experience Journey】📅 Day 1: Depart from Chengdu, arrive at Seda, acclimatize to the high altitude, and head to the Mandala to watch the sunset in the evening. Day 2: Spend the whole day visiting Larung Gar Buddhist Academy, attend the morning class, and observe the lights at night. Day 3: Visit the Sky Burial Site (respect local customs), free time in the afternoon to experience Tibetan culture and taste local specialties. Day 4: Capture the morning light of the Buddhist academy at dawn, then return to Chengdu, ending the unforgettable journey to Seda. Seda, a place where the soul can find rest, every inch of land is permeated with the power of faith. Here, you can temporarily put aside the hustle and bustle of the world and find inner peace. Bring your camera, pack your bags, and let us embark on this soul-cleansing journey together, capturing those heart-touching moments, making every step of the journey the most precious memory.
