🏔️ Four Sisters

🏔️ Four Sisters of the West: Discovering 四姑娘山 (Mount Siguniang) Tucked away in western Sichuan, 四姑娘山 (Mount Siguniang) is a stunning alpine paradise often called the “Queen of Sichuan’s mountains.” With soaring snow peaks, glacier valleys, and mirror-like lakes, this scenic area is a dream for nature lovers, hikers, and photographers alike. 🌲🏞️❄️ I explored Shuangqiao Valley (双桥沟), the most accessible of the three valleys. It’s perfect even for casual walkers — with shuttle buses and scenic boardwalks offering jaw-dropping views of snow-capped peaks like Yaomei Feng (幺妹峰), the tallest of the Four Sisters at 6,250m. 🌈 Highlights: • Serene alpine meadows filled with wildflowers in summer • Crystal-clear lakes reflecting towering peaks • Photogenic prayer flags and yak sightings • Dramatic shifting weather — from sun to snowfall within minutes! 💡 Tips: • Altitude ranges from 3,200m to over 4,000m, so pace yourself and bring oxygen if needed. • Dress in layers — mornings can be chilly even in July. • The area is best reached from Chengdu by car or bus (approx. 5–6 hours). #chinatravel #四姑娘山 #mountsiguniang #shuangqiaovalley #双桥沟 #yaomeifeng #sichuantravel #hiddenchina #hikingparadise #tibetanplateauviews #alpineescape #travelchina #naturelovers #川西美景 #高原风光
