It takes 4-5 hours to drive by car. You will pass through places with high altitudes on the way, so you must bring an experienced driver if you drive by yourself. For public transportation, you can take a bus from Xinnanmen Station to Hailuogou. After arriving at Hailuogou, let the owner of the homestay come to pick you up. It's not very good to take a taxi locally, so don't live too far away, unless the owner has a dedicated car that can provide pick-up and drop-off services at any time. 【Travel Guide】 🐚Hailuogou: After entering the Hailuogou scenic area, you need to take the scenic area's sightseeing car and cable car to enter. It is recommended to take the cable car to Camp 4 and go to the No. 1 Glacier Viewing Platform to overlook the Great Glacier Waterfall; follow the sign to another viewing platform to see the No. 2 Glacier and the Gongga Main Peak. ⛰️Moxi Ancient Town: There are old streets in the ancient town. You can find a small shop to let the owner help you tie a dirty braid, the price is not expensive.

You can ask the owner of the homestay for discount tickets. Of course, you can also stay directly in the hot spring hotel, which is more comfortable to soak in, and there are fewer people. 【Hotel Recommendation】 The hotel can be located in Moxi Town, which is convenient for both dining and going to the scenic area. It is recommended to find a hotel where you can soak in the hot springs, so you don't have to squeeze with others to soak in the hot springs. There are fewer people and it's relatively clean. It's not necessary to have a soaking pool in the room, it's okay if there is a soaking pool in the hotel. The hotel we stayed in before had a large soaking pool on the top floor, and hotel guests can make an appointment to soak in the hot springs. 【Food Recommendation】 You must eat yak meat and milk tea here. The dishes we ordered at Kangjiong Jiqin Restaurant were all good, especially the grilled mushrooms, which were really delicious. 【About Tickets】 Moxi Ancient Town does not charge admission. The ticket for Hailuogou is 90 yuan, the round-trip sightseeing car is 80 yuan, and the round-trip cable car in the scenic area is 135 yuan. 【Other Precautions】 1⃣️It's very cold on the mountain, remember to wear more clothes, bring gloves, earmuffs and hats 2⃣️If you plan to soak in the hot springs, remember to bring a swimsuit. Don't go to the hot springs on an empty stomach, after meals, or after drinking 3⃣️You don't need to go to Red Stone Beach, many stones are not red anymore

Unknowingly, more than a year has passed since the Luding earthquake, and Hailuogou has reopened... Among the old five-A scenic spots in Sichuan, compared with the rising stars of this Mengou and that Mengou in the basin, Hailuogou is very ancient and famous! But Hailuogou is really different! Here, you can enjoy spectacular glaciers, waterfalls, primeval forests, and experience hot springs...feel the magical charm of nature! Taking the shuttle bus from the gate of the scenic spot, it was rainy and foggy all the way, and I couldn't even look out of the window. I just arrived at the cable car station with a "tragic feeling" that "everyone is here". After boarding the cable car and climbing over a mountain, the clouds and mist faded away under our feet, and things gradually became more real before our eyes. The carriage moved in silence...The thick fog dispersed, and the sun penetrated the clouds, shining all over Gongga~ Attractions open Caohaizi to Donggar Temple Loop, Gonggar Paradise (Camp No. 3), Gonggar Pulse (Chengmen Cave), Gonggar Stairs (Wadi River Dam), Gonggar Hall (Camp No. 4) partial loop Hailuogou

I went traveling with my parents and found this hidden gem of a hotel. It was worth it! It's a newly opened hot spring hotel with butler service. The staff are friendly and respond quickly. The facilities are relatively new, and the hot spring temperature is very comfortable. There is a strong sulfur smell. The hot spring pool in Room 38 has a great view of the snow-capped mountains. 📍Detailed address No. 44, Group 2, Gonghe Village, Moxi Town, Garze Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan 📝Tips The entrance is small, but the interior is full of surprises. The entire homestay is built on a mountain with two staggered floors. There are about 5 hot spring pools. You must take the cable car. The view of the white Hailuogou from the cable car is truly breathtaking.

When you set out alone, leaving your comfort zone, to a land that is completely unfamiliar but you have heard of countless times, everything you see, encounter, and feel is meaningful. Western Sichuan is such a land❗ . I came from Hangzhou, it’s my first time here, ✈️2000km, 〽️3500 meters above sea level, my heart is as peaceful as the surroundings❗ . 📍: Hailuogou . ▶️The first bus departed from Moshi Ancient Town. There was thick snow along the way, and the flying snowflakes hit the car windows. There were villages, vegetable gardens and a few rape flowers along the way. ▶️The Gongga Snow Mountain is majestic. Although only a tip of it is visible in the fog, I already feel that I am just a speck of dust in front of it. ▶️Be healed by the glacier and snow, be healed by the monkey cubs hugging each other, be healed by the silver-clad sky, and silently make New Year's wishes to the snow-capped mountains
