Jiguanshan Forest Park meets the standards of a first-class forest park scenic resource. Compared with the Longwan Group, Baijiyao, Sanxianjia, Wunvfeng and other national forest parks in Tonghua City, Jiguanshan Forest Park has convenient transportation, and it is the only forest park in Meihekou City and one of the forest parks in Tonghua City. Therefore, it has high tourism value and broad development prospects. Five-star recommendation!!! I will visit again next time!!!
A very wild place to play in the water. It took an hour to get to Yuantong Ancient Town for lunch, and then we went directly into the mountains. The further we went, the cooler it got. I went there two years ago and liked it very much. There were few people and the water was good. This time there was a big change. It was very desolate. Because it was under construction, the road into the mountain was very bad at the beginning. But it still didn't affect our mood to play in the water. We had a small kayak, and it was quite comfortable to float there. But it was really too desolate. The owner of the farmhouse we went to was nowhere to be found, and it was not easy to get down to the river beach.
Baiyungou is located in Goujia Village, Jiguanshan Township, Chongzhou City, and is also known as Baiyun Temple. The area is mainly mountainous and river valleys, with a forest coverage rate of more than 98%. It is one of the most oxygen-rich places around Chengdu, and is known as a "natural oxygen bar" by many tourists who have visited it. There is little sunshine throughout the year, much fog, and relatively high humidity. The annual average temperature is about 16°, making it a good place to escape the heat and breathe oxygen in the hot summer.
It's not easy to go up hill or down hill in Chengdu. It's not easy to go up hill or down hill. It's not easy to go up hill or down hill. It's better to go down hill early to prepare some dry food or have a good time with snow. It's a little expensive to go up and down hill by private car.
Jiguanshan is an underdeveloped forest park. It is suitable to see maple leaves at the end of October and early November in autumn (we have red leaves in October 30, and we expect to see them everywhere in another week). Because it is not fully open, it is relatively inconvenient to eat and live. Live only in Jiguanshan Town, farmhouse music, special reminder (along the way, green mountains and water is the last place to live), the advantage is from the town to Jiguanshan Scenic Area, a journey of about 30 minutes. If there is a requirement for living, especially for the elderly and children, it is suggested to live on the side of the old town in the street (the disadvantage is that the distance is 1.5 hours to the scenic spot). At the foot of the mountain, don't fantasize, there are no hotels. There are few places to eat, and only when there are more people (such as the time to focus on red leaves), there are temporary restaurants set up by nearby farmers and uncles, and there are still many kinds to choose from. The parking lot is just at the entrance of the scenic spot, not more than 10 yuan parking fee. Fortunately, the scenic spot is relatively cold, otherwise the car can only stop along the roadside. It's about an hour's walk from the entrance to the Ban Development Park with goat intestine trail (suitable for donkeys, ordinary tourists should not go further). If all adults climb at normal speed, it's estimated that they can get there in less than one hour. Undressed girls should be a reasonable metaphor for the scenic spot.
It's good to ski in winter. Before you go, you'd better ask the local people if the snow is big or not. If the temperature is high, you can't ski with less snow. The air is good. It's also good to have a barbecue with friends.
I haven't been to other seasons, but winter is really beautiful! There is a section of the road is not easy to walk, the best to go to the small partners wear non-skid shoes. It's also cold in the mountains. Wear more clothes to keep warm.
The road was too bad, with shell holes everywhere. Self-driving cars were not allowed to enter Jiguanshan Forest Park nearly 20 kilometers away. I had to turn back. I saw a branch road with a Shatuo farmhouse advertisement. The road was very good, so I went to have fun. About 5-6 kilometers to Liuli Village, there are many farmhouses, very cool, and the scenery is also good.
