It seems that there are no children and even adults around the world who don't like to play in the snow, let alone the children in Chengdu who love snow more than the sun, and they have been playing in the snow for a long time. So I booked a ticket online in advance, made an appointment with my daughter's friend, and set off~

set

off from Chengdu at 9:00 a.m., and encountered a river at the foot of the mountain, which should be Xiling Snow Mountain The river formed by the melting of snow and water, and the road behind has always accompanied this river.

We parked the car on the side of the road, went to the river to let ourselves go, and the children got their shoes wet before leaving.
It turned out that my strategy was not serious enough, and I took the wrong path at a three-way intersection and walked to the front mountain, which turned out that the "Xiling Snow Mountain" on the road sign referred to the front mountain, and the "ski resort" referred to the back mountain. Qianshan is dominated by natural scenery, suitable for hiking enthusiasts, and has simple facilities; And most tourists go to the back mountain, the ski resort, the ropeway is in the back mountain, and there are many hotel businesses. After
lunch in a town at noon, the road to the back mountain has always been better and wider, which is more friendly to drivers like us who are not very good at driving.
When I arrived at the gate of the scenic spot, it was already raining lightly, the weather in the mountains was really changeable, there were many raincoats and shoe covers sold in the parking lot, and there were toys for children to play with the snow, so I bought a few, dressed neatly, and picked up the equipment to go up the mountain~

The

traffic in the scenic spot is really good, there are transportation cars from the parking lot to the ticket hall, of course, you can also choose to walk.
The ticket we booked includes the Mandarin Duck Pond transportation ropeway ticket and tickets, as well as hotel accommodation together, redeem the ticket, you can take the ropeway, and then transfer to the bus to the Maple Leaf Hotel located near the ski resort.
After checking in, it was only after three o'clock, and the group put down their things and were excited to go for a walk, and saw a pile of snow on the mountain from a distance, dirty, but it still couldn't resist the heart of big and small children playing in the snow, southerners, everyone understands! The clothes and pants were all wet and playful before reluctantly leaving.

turned around and saw the playground again, which was more attractive to the two babies than snow, and the two babies rushed over cheeringly, and the two old mothers rolled their eyes at each other and sighed!

According to the plan, I will get up at half past five tomorrow to take the earliest cable car to watch the sunrise at Sun Moon Flat, so after dinner and a short rest, we will wash up and sleep. I don't know why the cable car did not "go to work" on time, and unfortunately missed the most beautiful moment of the sunrise, but the scenery on the mountain was absolutely shocking, which can be regarded as making up for our regrets.

I couldn't help but sigh how ridiculous it was for us to play with the pile of snow yesterday, as soon as I walked out of the cable car station gate, I saw a thick layer of snow, and I rushed out to build a snowman, and I just pulled it twice like an ice cube that froze with my hands, and it was no longer noisy.

The

little squirrels here are not too well-behaved, they are not afraid of people at all, they go directly to people's hands to eat, and they are about to catch up with the monkeys in Mount Emei, and they are almost grabbed by hand.

Because

the friends who traveled with me overestimated the temperature on the mountain, did not bring enough clothes, shivered from the cold, went down the mountain early to return to the hotel, here I would like to remind friends who plan to go to Xiling Snow Mountain, must take warm measures.
Due to the high altitude of the mountain, the child was a little uncomfortable, stopping and walking all the way, holding a section, walking for a while, plus there were no friends all the way, the mood was a little depressed, and the excitement when he first saw the snow was gone.
