80km Flower Sea in Western Sichuan

National Geographic Got It Right! This 80km Flower Highway in Western Sichuan 💖|||🌄 Looks straight out of an anime!
Snow-capped mountains, forests, flower fields, streams, blue tear lakes, wild mushrooms, yaks... all appear along this 80km route~

📍 Location: Yuke Grassland, Daofu County
Altitude: 3,700m | Entrance fee: Free
Road condition: Mostly paved and smooth; only 3-4km of bumpy road (7-8km near Riyuetan direction).

🚘 Four routes to enter Yuke Grassland:
From Barkam: Visit Lover’s Lake first, then head to Yuke.
From Luhuo: Pass by Zongmei Grassland, incredibly scenic~
From Danba: Go through Dangling, perfect for a hike to Hulu Lake~
From Daofu (recommended): Longdeng Grassland and Bairi Mountain (reachable by noon on the second day, with endless flower fields!).

🌸 Must-visit spots in Yuke Grassland:
**Joy Terrace**
The iconic swing tree from *Travel Anywhere* is here! Super photogenic~
**Bairi Mountain Meadow**
Just 10 minutes from Daofu town, you’ll enter the flower zone! About 30km from base to summit, with winding roads surrounded by blooms—no fences, so stop anytime to relax in the flowers!
**Jiayilacuo Lake**
A blue "milk sea"—my annual hidden gem since 2019! Coniferous forests, lake, and snowy peaks create a breathtaking view. Hike 10min to the hillside pavilion for a panoramic vista.
**Yaochi Forest**
Feels like Xinjiang! Pink rhododendrons bloom in June~

⚠️ Tips:
Yuke Grassland is pristine—avoid driving on the grass! Pack out all trash when camping. No fees or staff here. Drive carefully—livestock often roam the roads!
