    "I personally feel the vitality of nature up close. The mountain scenic spot is famous for its spectacular snow-capped mountains, Rizhao Jinshan, sea of clouds, sunrise and other natural landscapes. Here, I feel the magic and beauty of nature, and I also feel the harmony between man and nature. On the hiking trail of Niubei Mountain,"

    "It is worth a visit. The natural scenery is a good place to raise the body and mind. The air negative ions have a particularly high oxygen content. The scenery is not said. If you look at the panda, it is recommended that you come early. In the morning, 8:00~10:00 is the time for pandas to love activities. In the afternoon, the pandas will rest lazily."

    "The forest bath is here. I personally feel very comfortable. I went there for the New Year, but I also experienced quietness. In addition to being far from Chengdu, the park itself is very good. I went to Tiansheng Bridge to see the snow before, this time I came to see the forest."

    "The sightseeing car is a little faster, but it can be understood. It’s not bad inside, but it feels that the leopard golden monkey wolf in the park is not as well maintained in the center of the park, especially near the ecological snake museum."

    Highlights: Located within the Bifengxia Scenic Area, the Bifengxia Wildlife Park offers clean air and beautiful scenery. You can see all kinds of wild animals at the park, which is a great place to learn about animals and get close to nature. It's a great place to bring kids for a wildlife adventure. Most of the animals here roam free, and guests can ride the feeding trucks and feed lions, tigers, and bears. It’s very exciting to watch these large, ferocious animals carry off their prey.

    "The Qingming holiday just happened to be a self-driving tour of 318 back to Tianquan for renovation. It is simply a natural oxygen bar. Bring children to feed the monkeys, the children are very happy, and the family comes to go out."

    Highlights: Erlang Mountain Diaohe Scenic Area is located at the southeast foot of Jiajin Mountain, at the southern edge of the rolling Longmen Mountain and Qionglai Mountains. It is a high mountain and deep valley area transitioning from the Sichuan Basin to the Western Sichuan Plateau. The tourism resources of the entire scenic spot can be divided into eight major scenic spots, including Angzhou River, Xuanxuangou, Fengzi River and the Grand Gorge.The scenic area has a good ecological environment, rich species of animals and plants, and many rare and protected species. It is a national forest park nature reserve. There are about 46 species of mammals, about 160 species of birds, about 7 species of fish, and about 14 species of reptiles known in the reserve, including giant pandas, takin, golden monkeys, red pandas, sambar deer, leopards, Sichuan-Shaanxi Salmon and other key protected wild animals.An Ice and Snow Festival is held here every year. Popular activities with themes such as "Christmas Market", "Ice and Snow Light Show", and "Romantic Warm Winter" have been popular among tourists. In late winter, the scenic area is covered with white snow, showing vitality and snowy interest in the severe cold winter. Looking at the rime-covered branches and the wonders and beautiful scenery, the scenery is like a snow country, which is intoxicating. At that time, you can take the cable car on the Jiaoshan Cableway and have a panoramic view of this beautiful scenery.Mountaineering routeRecommendation 1: Erlang Mountain Diaohe River Scenic Area Walnut Ping - Shuangshixi - Lianxiang Slope - Jade Corridor - LuchiDistance: 3 kilometers. Road surface: Gravel road, going up slowly and not too steep. Special points of interest: The hiking trail goes up the stream, with green trees on both sides, birds singing and flowers fragrant. The river is gurgling and crystal clear, so you can play and walk at the same time. If you are tired from walking and don’t want to walk back, you can also take a ride on the alpine waterslide in the scenic area to “drift down”.Recommendation 2: Wucai Valley - Ski Resort - Arrow Bamboo Forest - Niujingou - Primitive ForestDistance: 7-8 kilometers. Road surface: 3 kilometers of wooden plank roads and 4 kilometers of mountainous roads. Special points of interest: Climbing the original forest wooden plank road is easier and cooler. The altitude is higher and you can overlook the scenic spot. Wild animals can often be seen in the mountain forest.Red leaf viewing period: the end of October to the end of November (the best time to enjoy red leaves is only ten days, so it is recommended to consult the scenic spot before traveling. In addition, the weather is also very important, try to choose sunny days when traveling).
