the Spring Festival of 2022, I decided to go out for a few days, because staying at home is really boring, so it is better to go out and exercise my sedentary body. Because Young Master Yang only had 7 days off, he planned to go to Huya Grand Canyon to see the icefall, so he asked the girl to buy me two pairs of crampons on the Internet, and received the crampons, but received the news that Huya Grand Canyon was temporarily closed, so I hurriedly found a place again. The weather in Miyi is good, the temperature is high and warm, but it takes 24 hours of nucleic acid to call for consultation, and then give up. The weather in Sichuan during the Spring Festival is not very good, most of the light rain is mostly light rain, I called to consult the ancient towns around Chengdu, only need the pass code, then visit the ancient town, inquired, stringed together several ancient towns, and planned a route: Shangli Ancient Town - Jiuxiang Qingxi Ancient Town - Dadu River Canyon Scenic Area - Dawashan Wetland Park - Gaomiao Ancient Town - Liujiang Ancient Town - Wangyu Ancient Town.

On January 31st, at my parents' house, we watched the Spring Festival Gala for a while in the evening, we drove home, and turned on the travel mode early the next morning.

D1: February 1, Mianyang - Shangli Ancient Town, stay at the Guqiao Gallery Inn

Get

up in the morning, cook 10 glutinous rice balls and a poached egg, and wish you a reunion in 2022, harmony and beauty, and happiness every day! After 9 o'clock, we drove off, I thought that the highway would be jammed, but it was smooth all the way, not long after Qionglai, I navigated down the highway, took County Road 173, took the mountain road to Shangli Ancient Town, the bamboo forests on both sides of the mountain road were lush, it was raining lightly, it felt very comfortable to walk on the road, and the car drove to the high place and floated a large area of snowflakes, over the mountain all the way down, and at the foot of the mountain was Shangli Ancient Town. The innkeeper picked us up on the side of the road, arranged parking, and we took our luggage to the inn, and listened to the boss that the occupancy rate was not good because of the bad weather this Spring Festival.

We put our luggage away, each person had an umbrella, and began to wander around the ancient town, forgetting to bring a mask at the entrance of the ancient town, and turned back to the inn, and put on our hats by the way, it was a little cold in the rain. We first found a place to have lunch, searched a lot, and decided to eat casserole fish at the Red Army Hotel. Yayu ate it when passing through Ya'an many years ago, when it was cooked, it was still used as a hot pot basin and other aluminum basins as serving utensils, in addition to the fish was tomatoes and ham sausages to garnish, and now I feel that the cooking has taken a step forward, the aluminum basin has become a casserole, and the ingredients inside have also become tofu, bamboo shoots, and meatballs, the soup is white, and the method is like crucian carp soup. Young Master Yang and I looked at the casserole, our appetites were great, we drank soup while eating fish, and the whole casserole was eaten clean by us, of course, the premise was that we didn't eat rice, after all, there were only two of us, Young Master Yang also took out the fish sword in the fish head, I sent the picture to the girl, and the girl was disgusted and said that it was not taken well.


After eating Yayu and checking out, Yang Gongzi and I watched the live Yayu at the door of the store for a while, the fish head is small, the tail is red, the scales are very small, the fish body is round, the meat looks very thick, and the whole fish looks very beautiful from the outside. After watching Yayu, we wandered around the ancient town, the ancient town is like most ancient towns, the main street is full of shops, most of the food is sold, there is a Han family compound in the town, which is the largest building in the town, the ticket is 10 yuan, the town is surrounded by a small river, there are several stone bridges on the river, the ancient town of Shangli is not amazing, it is still okay to wander around. There are not many people in the ancient town, and I feel that most of them are people from nearby townships, and they come here with relatives and friends during the Spring Festival holiday.


We went back to the inn at 4 o'clock, and came out to find dinner at half past 6, eating tart noodles + big meat, tart gluten is not enough, big meat, it's braised pork, the taste is average, It's not as delicious as my dad.At dinner, except for the shop owner, there were few people walking on the street, and it was very deserted, but when I arrived at the inn, I met a few children giving flowers, and I had a hint of liveliness.

Nestled in the bed at night to check the road conditions of the Yaxi Expressway, because the highway was closed due to heavy snowfall, and the only way to Hanyuan Jiuxiang was to turn over the mud mountain, so I decided to change the itinerary and go to Liujiang Ancient Town tomorrow.

D2: On February 2, Shangli Ancient Town - Wangyu Ancient Town - Liujiang Ancient Town, stayed in Hongya Qi Sanya Garden

in the morning breakfast in the ancient town, I ate beef noodles, Young Master Yang ate copy, because I went a little early, the store just opened, I waited a little longer. I originally wanted to eat steamed buns, because when I went shopping yesterday, I felt that the steamed buns sold in the town were delicious, and I wanted to eat steamed buns this morning, but the steamed bun shop was not open yet, and when we walked back after breakfast, the steamed bun shop was open, and the boss greeted us, but unfortunately we had already eaten it.

We drove to Wangyu Ancient Town first, after passing Ya'an urban area the traffic flow suddenly increased, after 11 o'clock to Wangyu Town, there is a small parking lot in the new town, park the car, walk back about 100 meters, cross the intersection to the entrance of the ancient town, need to climb a long stone ladder, Wangyu Ancient Town is on the high stone steps. The streets of the ancient town are not long, the houses on both sides are really original, some are slanted into dangerous houses, there are only two or three households on the whole street, one of them can also eat and drink tea, the corn cakes sold in front of his house are delicious, and the tea horse road outside the street is quite feeling.



After coming down from the ancient town, we had lunch in the new town, navigated to Liujiang Ancient Town via Hongwa Road, and there was a traffic jam when we went out of Wangyu Town, because this is also the only way to Wawu Mountain, and the ice and snow of Wawu Mountain are still very attractive, especially for children. The scenery along the way was good, the smoky lake was seen on the dam, and the forest encountered beautiful snow scenery.

arrived at Liujiang Ancient Town, checked in, and we went out again. Because of the convergence of the Huaxi River and the Yangcun River, the river surface on the side of the town is very wide, so the Liujiang Ancient Town is built and packaged very poetically, and the whole ancient town feels very large, and there are many people who come to play.

The food street in the town is full of rattan pepper flavor, rattan pepper duck, rattan pepper fish, roasted pork belly, if it's lunch time, I will definitely go to taste it, dinner, or find a noodle restaurant to eat noodles, the elderly, don't eat too greasy at night, there is a noodle shop in the town selling Shaanxi biangbiang noodles, we asked for two bowls of oil splashing, the tendon of the noodles is very good, there is a taste of Shaanxi.

D3: February 3, Liujiang Ancient Town - Gaomiao Ancient Town - Leshan Jinkouhe District, stay at Leshan Zhiran Hotel

today to Leshan Jinkouhe District, although the highway is free, but we chose Ehong Road, because we are going to Gaomiao Ancient Town, you can pass through Qiliping, Emei Mountain, more and more feel that the highway is very lonely, if you have enough time, like to take the mountain road and open the national road.

Gaomiao Ancient Town let us pass by for half an hour, and the entrance was too inconspicuous. The ancient town is original, much larger than Wangyu Ancient Town, well maintained, not much commercialized, worth seeing.

After seeing the ancient town of Gaomiao, we drove forward, passing through Qiliping, which has formed a resort area, and many houses have been built. There are many people who come to play in the snow.

Then it passed through Mount Emei for zero kilometers, which was even more crowded with cars, and people's interest in traveling was high, and they did not feel the impact of the epidemic and weather at all. After passing through Emei Mountain City, we refueled with PetroChina, so we found a place to have lunch, searched for a high-rated old Emei local restaurant nearby, and ordered his signature dish "flavor braised fish", which was delicious, but we didn't eat what kind of fish it was, and we asked the boss at the checkout, it was a local naked grouper, and I only cared about eating it at that time, and I forgot to take pictures.

After 4 o'clock in the afternoon, we arrived at the Jinkouhe District of Leshan, found a hotel to check in, went out to find noodles to eat at half past 5, according to the navigation, several houses did not open, and there were only more food in ancient towns and scenic spots during the Spring Festival holiday. We wandered the streets for a long time and finally found a noodle restaurant, which tasted pretty good. This time I came out, I was used to eating dry noodles, without soup, a big improvement.

D4: On February 4, Dawa Mountain Wetland Park

is ready to stay in the Jinkou River for two days, one day in Dawa Mountain Wetland Park, one day in Dadu River Canyon Scenic Area, and today go to Dawa Mountain. I found a shop on the street in the morning, only noodles and rice noodles, and I didn't want to eat noodles in the morning.After breakfast, we navigated Dawashan Wetland Park from the hotel, drove for about 20 minutes, started the mountain road, spiraled up the mountain road, fortunately we did not get motion sickness, although the mountain road was long, but the scenery was unique, although God gave us a light rainy Spring Festival, but at the same time gave us a beautiful Dawa Mountain after the snow, the only regret is that we were not able to see the true face of Dawa Mountain.

Because of the snow, the road is icy, the car can only drive to the big Tianchi, we went to the small Tianchi on foot, and the sorghum pond and fish pond were too far away to go.Datianchi has a farmhouse to eat and stay, we eat in the car because we bring self-heating rice, come to Dawa Mountain, most of the people around Leshan, listen to the locals, Dawa Mountain is also about to start to build, may become a place to be enclosed to collect money again.

We drove down the mountain after 4 p.m., arrived at the hotel at 6 o'clock, took a break and went out to eat, and still found a noodle restaurant to eat noodles. Back at the hotel, after washing up, I sat in the bed and waited for the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics, the TV in this hotel is good, it is a 50-inch screen. The opening ceremony started on time at 8 o'clock, and the old strategist surprised me again, and all links were also very well connected.

D5: On February 5th, Dadu River Canyon Scenic Area

didn't want to go out to eat this morning, so I ate sachima, cranberry bread, and beef jerky in the room.

After 9 o'clock, we went out, today we went to the Dadu River Canyon, the Jinkou River is very close to the Dadu River Canyon, and it only takes 20 minutes by car. There is a railway soldier museum in the canyon scenic area, which mainly introduces the history of the railway soldiers, as well as the situation when the Chengkun Railway was built, looking at these data pictures, photos, and videos, I was quite shocked, felt the heroism and heroism of the railway soldiers, and remembered the eight words "open the road in the mountains and build bridges in the water".

The museum is located in Shengli Village next to the canyon, where there is a railway station called "Guancunba", which is said to be a station in the tunnel, and now only green trains and freight cars stop. Shengli Village is also well built, you can eat, you can stay, and there is a suspension bridge and two observation decks nearby to see the canyon scenery.

We came down from the observation deck and did not eat in Shengli Village because there were too many people, and the self-heating rice we ate in the car in the parking lot. After lunch, I rested in the car for another half hour, and then continued to drive along the Dadu River Canyon, walking and watching, and stopped to play when I encountered a parking area.

D6: On February 6, Leshan Jinkou River - Mianyang

is the return journey today, from the Jinkou River to Ebian County via National Highway 245, and then all the way to Mianyang on high speed , returned to Mianyang successfully at 3 p.m.
