🇨🇳🐼❄️ 25k with change Frugal travel but amazing views like this You can really find it in China. The nature is so beautiful. It's really eye-catching. I want my friends to see it with their own eyes.

I booked 90% of everything through Trip.com. It was very convenient. #TravelChina

#tripflyingtoChina Switzerland Dragon Land Come see the glacier, the second viewpoint after going up to the highest point of Siguniang Mountain (Siguniangshan). The park car will stop for us to take pictures at each point, from the highest point down. The beauty of this 5 A level national park varies in each season, but it is beautiful in every season. The weather up there is quite cold all year round because it is almost 5,000 meters above sea level. Travel recommendations for each season Autumn (September - November) The weather starts to get colder. It is the most beautiful time, no less than summer because you will get to see the leaves change color. Red trees alternate with golden yellow, reflecting on the river, clear sky, contrasting with the beautiful view of the snowy mountains. 🌤 Summer (June - August) is the most recommended season to visit. The nights are cold, but the days are quite warm. You can hike comfortably. See beautiful flowers blooming all over the valley. Take beautiful pictures from every angle. See the clear, cool water flowing in the stream, which is melted by the snow on the mountain. You can also go down to play. Spring (March - May) It is still cold. Snow starts to melt. Flowers start to bloom. Contrast with the snow-capped mountains 🗻 Winter (December - February) Snow covers the entire area until it is completely white. The lake turns into ice. #triptravelchina #placestovisitchengdu

Winter travel in Sichuan and Tibet is an unforgettable experience, but it also requires some preparation and precautions. In the Sichuan-Tibet region, the winter weather is harsh, the roads may be icy, and there may even be blizzards. Here are some suggestions and precautions: 1. Prepare sufficient winter equipment: including warm clothing, windproof and waterproof jackets and pants, anti-skid shoes, gloves, hats, scarves, etc. Ensure that the clothes are warm and dry. 2. Choose transportation carefully: If you plan to drive or take a bus, be sure to understand the road conditions and weather. In winter, the road conditions may be very difficult, especially in high-altitude areas. Consider hiring a local experienced driver or joining a tour group led by a senior driver. 3. Prevention of altitude sickness: The altitude in the Sichuan-Tibet region is high, and winter is more likely to cause altitude sickness. It is recommended to adapt for at least one or two days before going, and you can also ask the doctor for advice on preventing and relieving altitude sickness. 4. Ensure food and accommodation safety: Choose reliable accommodation and catering services. In high-altitude areas, it is very important to find a warm place to stay. 5. Respect local culture and traditions: The Sichuan-Tibet region has a rich culture and tradition, understand and respect the local religious beliefs and customs. The most important thing is to do a detailed investigation and planning before traveling to the Sichuan-Tibet region in winter, to ensure safety and comfort

A place to practice trekking in the Himalayas and a place with heavenly scenery, Sikunyang Mountain is a mountain located in the central western part of Sichuan Province, China. It is such a wonderful place that some say it is better than the Himalayas. The green alpine meadows, waterfalls, and clouds that come up close are a place that truly deserves the word "spectacular." You can hire a porter to carry your luggage and provide you with food from the village below, and as you trek through the alpine mountains, you will feel completely at one with nature. I highly recommend it to those who love mountains and nature. #China #Sichuan #AbaZhangZhuang Autonomous Region #Sikunyang Mountain #Trekking #ChinaTravel #MountainHiking

Zhaga Waterfall in Mounigou Valley - Mounigou Valley, located to the west of Songpan Ancient Town, Songpan. Among the most beautiful waterfalls, Zhaga Waterfall feels like the most supernatural one. It is the largest travertine waterfall in China. It is 93.2 meters high and 35 meters wide with an elevation of 3,270 meters. In the upper reaches of the waterfall is a lake and in the lower reaches, is a multistep waterbed. When the waterfall rushes down from the travertine steps, it creates a large spray and an earsplitting sound. Visitors will be astonished by the amazing scene. The filemot rock cliff of the waterfall shows some flowery color under the sunshine. #china #china🇨🇳 #chinatravel #chinalife #chinadestinations #chinaphotography #exploringchina #ilovemylife #itsgoodtobealive #travel #travelling #viajar #viajarfazbem #viajarépreciso #trip #wanderlust #wanderlusting #enjoythelife #travelgram #itsgoodtobealive #culture #sichuan #sichuanprovince #jiuzhaigou #amazingchina #zhagawaterfall #mounigouvalley #songpan #waterfall

I went to the Panda Research Institute, where many of my favorite pandas are kept. Sichuan Province is a big city with many buildings with innovative designs. After a short drive, we arrived at the panda research facility. There are pandas everywhere you look. They are kept by size, which is really soothing. They just eat bamboo and climb trees and fall down. It's one of the places I want to visit again. #Panda #Sichuan Province #Panda #Theme Park #Support Tourism

Exploring the Taoist culture on Qingcheng Mountain is considered as the birthplace of Taoism and one of the most important Taoist centers in China. It can be a long hike up to the top but you pass by beautiful lakes, waterfalls and plenty of nature. For the physically less active there is also a chance to pay for a cable car ride but if you have the ability to walk, I highly recommend it. You can spend a full day here and just let all your thoughts fade, refresh and re energize yourself. There are food opportunities along the way and also refreshments stops. For sure you won't get bored! #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel#roadtrip

Don't miss the scenic overlook - the panoramic view of Yalong River from there explains why this land yields such abundant harvests.

Dagupingchuan National Park is beautiful from the top, but the bottom is just as beautiful. If you travel from Chengdu, it takes about 6 hours. You have to plan your trip well because you should spend a lot of time here sightseeing, playing, and taking pictures. After buying a ticket to enter the park, take the park bus up and get off at the points where the bus stops. After taking pictures, get on the bus and go to the cable car station. Take the cable car to the top of the mountain. You will see a very beautiful view. There is snow here almost all year round. If you go in winter, you will see fluffy snow. You will be very satisfied. If you are afraid that you will have to worry about snow wherever you go, you don't have to worry about snow at Dagupingchuan. You will definitely see it. I recommend renting a car with a driver, which is much more convenient. #ShareLocation #ShareTravelPlan #TravelChina #NatureAttractions #DaguPlanet #DaguGlacier #Sichuan #Snow

Fewer crowds and wild scenery—every shot looks like a desktop wallpaper! Save this nanny-level guide and grab your besties for an unforgettable trip! 🏔️ Ruocrgai, Sichuan | A 20°C Summer Fairy Tale World 🚄 Transportation Guide - From Kunming: Take a high-speed train directly to Chengdu (about 6.5 hours, from ¥273), then take a bus from Chadianzi Bus Station to Ruocrgai (departs at 6:30 daily, 8 hours, ¥88). Total travel time is about 15 hours. - Self-drive from Chengdu: Take National Highway G317 directly, passing through Wenchuan and Hongyuan. The scenery along the way is like a road movie! Carpooling with at least 2 people is more cost-effective. - Niche option: If time allows, fly to Jiuhuang Airport (tickets around ¥800), then charter a car for 2 hours to reach the grassland. Experience the "18 Heavenly Bends" for ¥150 per person. 🏨 Accommodation Recommendations - Grassland Starry Sky Tents: From ¥200 per person. Lie in the tent counting the Milky Way and wake up to the sound of yaks in the morning! Includes a Tibetan bonfire party and butter tea experience. - Tibetan-style B&Bs with Floor Heating: Recommend "Song of the Cloud Shepherd," featuring Tibetan carvings and 24-hour oxygen supply. High-altitude-friendly accommodation, as low as ¥150/night in the off-season. - Homestay with Herders: ¥50 per person for a Tibetan-style shared bed. Learn to make tsampa and drink yak milk for an immersive nomadic experience! 🌸 Must-Visit Spots in June 📸 Flower Lake | A Floral Feast in China's Most Beautiful Wetland - Best time: Mid-June to early July, when the lake is covered with golden lotus and irises. Arrive before 7 AM for the magical combo of morning mist, flower sea, and snow-capped mountains. - Photo tips: Wear a white maxi dress and stand on the wooden boardwalk. Use a telephoto lens to capture the flower sea's expanse. Avoid midday harsh light for better shots. - Pro tip: Ticket + shuttle bus costs ¥120 (mandatory). Skip the ¥30 electric cart inside—just a 20-minute walk to the core area. 🌄 First Bend of the Yellow River | The Ultimate Romance for Sunset Lovers - Magical moment: Climb the viewing platform by 7 PM to see the S-shaped river reflecting the sunset, with the grassland bathed in golden light.

Ride to the cliff edge with a professional guide for a panoramic view! - Cute encounter: Spot marmots on the grassland. Bring biscuits to capture their "screaming" meme—but keep your distance and don’t feed them. 🍲 Tibetan Cuisine for Just ¥50 Per Person 🔥 Must-Try List - Yak Hotpot: Try "Aruo Tibetan Restaurant." The broth is simmered with yak bones for 8 hours. Add highland barley noodles to soak up the flavors—just ¥60 per person for a feast. - Potato Tsampa: Street stalls sell it for ¥5—crispy outside, chewy inside, dipped in chili powder. Pair with butter tea for the perfect local snack. - Yellow River Fish: Steamed fish at Sichuan-Yu Restaurant is a must—tender, boneless, and topped with scallions and chili for an umami explosion. - Tibetan Yogurt: Street carts sell it for ¥10/bowl, topped with milk skin.

Try "Snow Mountain Yak Meat Direct Store" for vacuum-packed, mail-order options. 📝 Super Practical Travel Tips 1. High-Altitude Precautions: - Take rhodiola supplements a week in advance. Avoid showers for the first 2 days after arrival. Carry oxygen cans (¥30 at scenic spots). - UV rays are intense! SPF 50+ sunscreen, arm sleeves, and a wide-brimmed hat are essential. Polarized sunglasses are a must. 2. Outfit Guide: - Wear a light jacket + long dress during the day, but bring a down jacket for nights! A red scarf adds pop to grassland photos. - Non-slip hiking shoes are ideal—wet boardwalks at Flower Lake and horseback riding demand good traction. 3. Cultural Etiquette: - Turn prayer wheels clockwise. Don’t touch Tibetan children’s heads. - Remove shoes before entering tents. Avoid stepping on thresholds—respect local customs! ✨ Final Thoughts Ruocrgai is the most healing place I’ve ever visited! June turns the grassland into a spilled palette—every shot is wallpaper-worthy. Girls, bring extra power banks because every step is a photo op!
