Chengdu is a magical city, and you may not see snow in the city for several years, but it only takes two hours to drive to the foot of the snow-capped mountains. Du Fu's eternal quatrain "The window contains the autumn snow of Xiling, and the door is anchored in the Dongwu Wanli Boat" makes this snow-capped mountain closest to Chengdu named "Xiling Snow Mountain", and its main peak, Daxuetang, is 5,364 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak in Chengdu and has not been conquered so far.
Chengdu people are always crazy about snow, so the nearest Xiling Snow Mountain, in winter will become a super popular attraction, but don't think that Xiling Snow Mountain is only beautiful in winter, "spring appreciation of rhododendrons in summer to escape the heat, autumn autumn view of red leaves and winter skiing", in fact, Xiling Snow Mountain is very beautiful all year round, worth a visit, in addition to the silver in winter, Xiling Snow Mountain is its own characteristics in different seasons, now it is midsummer, Xiling Snow Mountain is definitely an excellent summer resort, so cool that you forget that it is in summer, There are also delicate primroses and pure and fresh daisies by the snow lake. . . , the entire Xiling Snow Mountain is super beautiful!
Many friends do not know that Xiling Snow Mountain is divided into front mountain and back mountain, Qianshan is a "big flying water" scenic spot, which is more suitable for climbing the mountain, and is currently temporarily closed during the epidemic; The Xiling Snow Mountain Scenic Area we often mention is the back mountain, and you can directly navigate the "Xiling Snow Mountain Ski Resort" by car.
Take the "Mandarin Duck Pond Ropeway" from the foot of the back mountain, and then take the scenic traffic bus for about 10 minutes to the middle of the mountain at an altitude of 2155 meters - Yingxue Square, which is the location of the winter ski resort, and now the snow lake surrounded by flowers under the blue sky and white clouds is the protagonist here, and the blue lake is surrounded by blooming primroses, small daisies, etc., like a sapphire embedded in the Xiling snow-capped mountains, dazzling to the extreme!
Yingxue Lake is surrounded by all kinds of colorful flowers, mainly rose-red primroses and white daisies, this is the most suitable place to take pictures, under the blue sky, next to the lake, In the flowers, you can explode the circle of friends with just one shot.
In summer, the temperature of the Xiling Snow Mountain Mid-Mountain is the most comfortable, in addition to the snow lake surrounded by flowers, there are many entertainment projects here, the ski resort in winter has become a grass skiing field at this time, as well as zip lines, ATV off-road vehicles, rock climbing, archery, grass slides, etc., and now there are super preferential package activities, the original worth of more than 300 passes, now only 90 yuan / person, you can play all day.
If you are tired of playing, there are also a variety of food to choose from, there are large restaurants, small snack fast food restaurants, supermarkets and convenience stores, and even Tex, of course, you can also bring your own food, and it is also very good to find a small picnic in an open space (be sure to protect the environment).
For restaurants in the scenic area, the food at Yingxue Restaurant tastes quite good, not inferior to the taste outside.
There is also a 2.5-kilometer-long ropeway between the middle of the mountain to the top of the mountain - the Riyueping Ropeway, with an altitude span of 1 kilometer, which is currently the longest ropeway in our country, the cable car slowly rises, overlooking the dazzling Yingxue Lake, the Yingxue Lake gradually disappears, and then to the sea of clouds in the sky, the beautiful scenery in front of you keeps changing, making you intoxicated, and unknowingly come to the Riyueping at an altitude of 3,250 meters.
Riyueping is the best place to watch the sunrise in the sea of clouds in Xiling Snow Mountain, and if you are lucky, you can also see the Buddha's light, and turn around. You can overlook the highest peak of Xiling Snow Mountain - Miaojiling (Daxuetang).
Riyueping has a very large viewing platform, looking into the distance, the mountains are continuous, with the rapid change of the weather, sometimes clouds and mist, sometimes sunshine, After a light rain, you can see the rainbow in the mountains, just standing here, you can feel all kinds of beautiful scenery.
highest point that can be climbed in the scenic spot is the red stone tip, which is the closest place to the main peak of Xiling Snow Mountain, Miaojiling, and is a natural observation deck, overlooking the snow-capped mountains stretching for hundreds of miles in the distance, and you can see the wonder of "Rizhao Golden Mountain" when you are lucky.
Continue to another wonderful place in Xiling Snow Mountain - Yin-Yang Realm, which is both a mountain peak and a watershed between two completely different climates. On the one hand, there is a clear sky and a clear blue sky; On the other hand, the clouds are steaming, hazy, giving an infinite mysterious reverie. However, the wonders of the Yin-Yang Realm are like Buddha's light, and they are not always seen. (I waited for almost half an hour, either foggy on both sides or sunny)
Although it is difficult to see all the beautiful scenery and wonders on the top of the mountain at once, the most hospitable little squirrels here will not be absent every time, every time they come to Xiling Snow Mountain, they will see their lively and cute figures, and they seem to be accustomed to the frequent comings and goings of tourists, not stage fright at all, and will jump around people at a safe distance that it thinks is super cute.
Riyueping has the only hotel on the top of the mountain - Shoufeng Villa, there are only 8 rooms here, if you want to watch the sunset, sunrise, starry sky, this is the best choice, In winter, the rooms here are full and expensive, but now there are super discounted packages.
I remember the first time I came to Xiling Snow Mountain to reach Riyueping, because of the limited altitude conditions, the restaurant in Shoufeng Villa could only provide some very simple meals, and now after improvement, I actually ate a super delicious soup pot, especially when night fell and the temperature plummeted, this soup pot was simply comparable to the whole Manchu and Han banquets.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, if you want to find a place around Chengdu to escape the heat, Xiling Snow Mountain is definitely a very good choice, at present, whether it is tickets, hotels, play projects, there are super attractive discounts, coupled with the invincible beauty of this snow-capped mountain that has been on fire for thousands of years, "the window contains Xiling Qianqiu snow, the door is anchored in Dongwu Wanli Boat", just because of this eternal quatrain, it is worth your trip!
