My friend thought I went to Dali again, but this is Qionghai~

April, May, and June in Xichang are really worth it! Jacaranda, ancient city, Qionghai sunrise, fruits with increased sweetness And the fire pit barbecue I've been talking about I like the climate here, warm in winter and cool in summer, just like Dali You can go there in a weekend~ Departing from Chengdu: 🚗Self-driving | 5.5h 🚄High-speed train | 3h (Second class: 298/person/round trip) ❶ Diaoyutai A suitable place to watch the sunrise, there are many trees of various shapes by the lake, and each one looks good in photos~ The best moment of the sunrise light is just before and after the sun rises, the lake is reflected orange by the sky, and the silhouette is also very atmospheric. Walking along the right side of the lake, there is a boardwalk that extends into the lake, which is an excellent spot for watching the sunrise ❷ Dashiban Ancient Village After watching the sunrise, you can go to Dashiban Ancient Village. The ancient village is not big, and in the morning you can encounter many fresh fruit stalls, achieving freedom with blueberries, cherries, mangoes! Unexpectedly, walking along the main road, both sides are lined with jacarandas, I can't imagine how beautiful it is during the blooming season! ❸ Lingying Temple Located in Dashiban Ancient Village, just walk a few hundred meters along the main road and you can see it, the perimeter is an orange wall, and the inside is filled with incense, which looks too beautiful with the jacarandas on the street side ❹ Jinlin Beach I've been to Xichang several times and finally went to Jinlin Beach this time. The place is not big, with coconut groves and white sandy beaches. I took a few photos and my friends thought I was in Sanya hh, but actually, the best time to go there is at sunset~ 🏷️ 🔆Xichang is not big, the basic attractions are all around Qionghai, 1-2 days is enough for sightseeing, and it is recommended to cycle around Qionghai 🔆Xichang cuisine has a combination of Sichuan and Yunnan flavors, with a taste that tends to be sour and spicy, like Mianning local cuisine restaurant, fire pit barbecue, Xiaoyucun one fish multiple dishes specialty store, etc. are all good choices 🔆Xichang's climate is similar to Kunming, with an average annual temperature of around 20 degrees Celsius, warm in winter and cool in summer, so it is also called 'Little Spring City'
