The southern route of Genie in Western Sichuan is really, really beautiful

After so many trips to Western Sichuan, you will still be amazed how incredibly beautiful the summer on the southern route of Genie is!! Genie is a place with few people and beautiful scenery, truly a divine level of summer!! Destination【Southern Route of Genie】 Traveling from Litang along the southern route of Genie, the scenery is picturesque, with wildflowers everywhere in spring and autumn. If time allows, it is recommended to take 2-3 days to complete this route, from Litang to Batang, If you are short on time or not confident in your driving skills, it is not recommended to cross the southern route of Genie. You can stay overnight in Xiaze Tong and then return to Litang the same way. 🌈【Scenic spots not to be missed along the way】 Yuzixi If the weather is good, it is recommended to go to Yuzixi to watch the sunset, surrounded by 360° of Mount Gongga and Yala Mountain, the sunset is super romantic. Litang This is also the highest city in the world, it is recommended to go directly to the back mountain of Changqing Ke'er Monastery to watch the sunset and the entire city, very beautiful Xiaze Tong Village This is Ding Zhen's hometown, with natural hot springs by the road, wildflowers covering the hillsides, and little wooden cabins facing Mount Genie and several snow-capped mountains, as if walking into the movie of Heidi and her grandfather. 👓Eye of Genie This season, the Eye of Genie doesn't have much water, but it is surrounded by snow-capped mountains! If you can wait for the sunset here, that beautiful scene is still fresh in my memory! Ze Ba Village My favorite village on the southern route of Genie, facing Mount Genie directly, it's also a good choice to have a picnic or camp on a lawn. 🚘【6-7 Day Itinerary for Western Sichuan + Southern Route of Genie】 1: Chengdu-Kangding-s434-Tagong-Xinduqiao Stay: Xinduqiao 2: Xinduqiao-Yajiang-Litang Stay: Litang 3: Litang-Southern Route of Genie-Xiaze Tong Village Stay: Xiaze Tong Village 4: Xiaze Tong-Eye of Genie-Ze Ba Village Stay: Batang 5: Batang-Sister Lakes-Litang-Xinduqiao Stay: Xinduqiao 6: Xinduqiao-Tagong-Gunong Village-s434-Chengdu (If you only have about 6 days, you can take this route.

Once you pass Tagong and go further in, there are fewer and fewer people, and it is recommended to have some food in the car in case of traffic jams. ❷The first half of the southern route of Genie has good road conditions, the second half has poor road conditions and it is recommended to use an off-road vehicle. ❸The temperature changes greatly in high-altitude areas, be sure to bring a thick coat, it's very cold when it rains or on cloudy days. ❹This route is all in high-altitude areas, it is not recommended for those with severe altitude sickness to go
