2025 Sichuan Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in January)

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

Songpan County is also known as Datang Songzhou city. It was built in the Tang Dynasty (618–907) and was named after the towering pines in the city. Historical traces can be easily found in the present layout of city: the ancient city with blue city walls; the low buildings and the numerous lanes in the city; four broad main streets (East Street, West Street, South Street and North Street) orderly scattering in the city; ancient bridges with long history; the flowing rivers under the bridges; the tea houses and cane chairs near the river; the tall city gates and the green hills outside the city etc. Everything in the field of vision gives people a sense of going back to the ancient times. #china #china🇨🇳 #chinatravel #chinalife #chinadestinations #chinaphotography #exploringchina #ilovemylife #itsgoodtobealive #travel #travelling #viajar #viajarfazbem #viajarépreciso #trip #wanderlust #wanderlusting #enjoythelife #travelgram #itsgoodtobealive #culture #iloveearth #ilovethisplanet #sichuan #sichuanprovince #jiuzhaigou #amazingchina #songpan #songzhou #tangdynasty

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.

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.

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

Jiuzhaigou is a famous scenic area located in Zhangzha Town, Jiuzhaigou County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province. It is named after the nine Tibetan villages within the valley, though only three of these villages are currently inhabited. The valley is filled with pristine forests and numerous lakes of varying sizes, offering unique scenery throughout the four seasons. Known as a "beautiful fairytale world," Jiuzhaigou is home to diverse flora and fauna, including rare wildlife like giant pandas. Its snow-capped peaks, untouched forests, crystal-clear lakes, Tibetan villages, and traditional cultural elements create a distinctive cultural and natural landscape. Key areas within the valley include Shuzheng Valley and Zechawa Valley. Jiuzhaigou's natural beauty and cultural charm complement each other, with each season offering unique scenery. The vibrant lakes and reflections of snow-capped mountains in autumn and winter are particularly captivating, providing visitors with a poetic and picturesque experience. The Nuorilang Waterfall is one of Jiuzhaigou's most famous landmarks, located in the Rize Valley section. It is one of Sichuan's largest waterfalls, standing at an altitude of 2,365 meters, with a width of 270 meters and a height of 24.5 meters. As one of China's major travertine waterfalls and the widest waterfall in the country, it presents a magnificent natural spectacle. Since Jiuzhaigou's opening hours are typically from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, a two-day itinerary is recommended to fully experience the beauty and attractions of the area. Considering the vast size of Jiuzhaigou, with its widely distributed lakes, waterfalls, forests, and Tibetan villages, a one-day visit may not allow for a comprehensive tour. It’s indeed a bit regretful not to have explored all the scenic spots in Jiuzhaigou this time, especially given its breathtaking beauty and the unique charm of each site. However, this leaves something to look forward to for the next visit! #travelanywhere #jiuzhaigou #travelchina #travel #china

#chinatrip Exploring Huanglong Scenic Area in Sichuan, China, is like stepping into a fairy tale. This UNESCO World Heritage Site, often referred to as “Fairy Land on Earth,” is renowned for its stunning natural beauty, including colorful lakes, snow-capped mountains, lush valleys, and pristine forests. The name “Huanglong,” meaning “Yellow Dragon,” is derived from the area’s unique travertine formations that resemble a golden dragon winding through the valley. Upon arriving at Huanglong, the first thing that strikes you is the vibrant palette of colors. The Five Color Ponds, a series of terraced, mineral-rich pools, shimmer in shades of turquoise, green, yellow, and blue. These ponds are a photographer’s dream, offering countless opportunities to capture their surreal beauty against the backdrop of towering mountains. The journey through Huanglong is made easy by well-maintained wooden boardwalks that guide visitors through the park’s highlights. One of the most memorable sights is the Marvelous Flying Waterfall, where water cascades over golden limestone, creating a mesmerizing display. The Mirror Ponds, true to their name, reflect the surrounding scenery with crystal clarity, adding to the park’s magical atmosphere.

In my eyes, Lixiao Road in autumn is already beautiful to the extreme, like a dreamlike painting. However, when I encountered its snowy scenery, I realized what a true fairyland is. At that moment, I seemed to have traveled through a tunnel of time and space 🏔, stepping into a pure white fairy tale world without any impurities. 🌨️ Looking far into the distance, everything is covered in white, as if winter is a magical wizard, gently dressing every inch of land in silver. Such a beautiful scene makes people hold their breath and quietly appreciate it, afraid that any noise will break the tranquility and beauty. Here, I found the romance and tranquility unique to winter. 🗺️ About the attraction: Lixiao Road, known as Sichuan's own "Duku Highway," is like a mysterious path leading to a hidden paradise. Here, nature generously displays all its gifts—snow-capped mountains, forests, valleys, meadows, glaciers, and more. By the snow-capped lakes and among the meadows and streams, cattle and horses leisurely graze, creating vivid and lively scenes that make people feel relaxed and happy, like being in a paradise. 🏔️ On both sides of the road are magnificent landscapes surrounded by white snow and majestic snow-capped mountains, with lush lawns and crystal-clear, emerald-green streams in the middle, like a carefully crafted palette by nature, with perfectly matched colors and no abruptness. The small wooden houses and bridges scattered among them give people the illusion of being in Kanas, Xinjiang, once again deeply shocked by the breathtaking beauty of nature. 🚌 🏔️ —Transportation Guide— Location 📍: Daeup Pastoral Village 🧊 Tips: The temperature difference between day and night is huge here, so be sure to bring enough warm clothes to avoid letting the cold affect your pleasant travel mood.
