Not Losing to Switzerland! Sharing a Divine Spot in Western Sichuan in August

There truly exists a place closest to heaven on Earth, and I believe it's Zeba Village🏡
This hidden village at the foot of sacred mountains
With babbling streams🌊, scattered wooden huts🏕️, and quaint little bridges
Galloping freely on horseback, wildflowers blanketing the slopes
It's so breathtakingly beautiful, like stepping into a fairy tale‼️
📸 Photos can't capture even a fraction of its grandeur
Some say it's a must-visit bucket list destination
But I say it's absolutely worth a special trip✨
Many miss out because Western Sichuan seems too far
What a tremendous pity😭
I stayed for ten full days—this was hands down the most stunning stop!
Perennial snow-capped peaks + pristine villages
It feels comparable to Switzerland🏔️
📍Detailed Address
👉Zeba Village, Litang, Western Sichuan
🌟Recommended Itinerary (2-3 days)
Day 1:
Litang → Genie Town → Soaking in wild hot springs at Rarijka Village♨️
→ Genie's Eye → Stay at a homestay in Zeba Village
Day 2:
Sunrise over golden mountains🌅 → Panoramic tour of Zeba's hidden gems
→ Light exploration of the southern route → Sunset at Fenda Camp
💡Travel Tips
1️⃣ The essence of the Genie area lies in Zeba Village
Skip the cross-country trek—scenery along the way is mediocre and risky⚠️
Save time for Daocheng Yading instead!
2️⃣ Strongly recommend renting an SUV🚙
EV drivers, note⚠️ No charging stations in Genie
Charge fully in Litang/Batang before heading out
3️⃣ The golden mountain sunrise is unreal!!!
Wake up early to witness it
Every corner of the village offers top-tier viewing spots✨
4️⃣ Altitude: 3,800m💊
Those prone to altitude sickness, reconsider carefully
