First acquaintance with Xiling

The magical Sichuan Basin, this purple fertile soil, has never lacked beautiful scenery. For Chengdu people, they most like the Xiling Snow Mountain, a secret place in the southern region that can be reached by driving hundreds of miles. The poet Du Fu wrote the grand scene of "the window contains thousands of autumn snow in the Xiling Mountains, and the door moors thousands of miles of ships in Dongwu." During the summer solstice, when the sun is in full swing, what is the scene like on the Xiling Snow Mountain at the top of Chengdu?

It is rumored that the original name of Xiling Snow Mountain was "Xueyatang" and "Miaojiling" was a gathering place for drinking water from mountain cattle. Later, it was renamed Xiling Snow Mountain due to Du Fu's "window containing thousands of autumn snow in Xiling Mountain". Xiling Snow Mountain is one of the snow-capped mountains in the Qionglai Mountains that stretch hundreds of miles west of Chengdu. Because of its beautiful mountains and changes like gods, it has the sole name of "Xiling" and is the highest snowy mountain in Chengdu. The magical and beautiful Xiling Snow Mountain consists of the Dafei Water Scenic Area with mountains and rivers and the ski resort scenic area with strange peaks and snow.

Compared with the singleness of the scenery in front of the Xiling Snow Mountain, the scenery of the Xiling Snow Mountain Ski Resort Scenic Area is famous for its diversity and is worth a visit.

There are many immortal mountains in Sichuan, but Xiling is the most magical. A mountain has four seasons, and ten miles have different days. The sun and the moon shine together, and the yin and yang are separated. Mountains overlap each other, and clouds and clouds surround each other. Wandering in this mountain is so interesting. Enjoy rhododendrons in spring, enjoy fireflies in summer, view colorful forests in autumn, and play in white snow in winter. Therefore, tourists jokingly call the Xiling Snow Mountain Ski Resort the "magical mountain forest holy land".

Yingyue Lake, a fairy tale park in the forest

Only then did I feel that spring is coming, and suddenly the summer solstice. In June, the Chengdu Plain is extremely hot. At this time, on the bank of Yingyue Lake in Xiling Snow Mountain at an altitude of more than 2000 meters, the mountain flowers are blooming and the grass is green, just like "spring light is permanent", cool and pleasant.

"A pool of spring flowers surrounds the Xiling Mountains, and a pool of clear water reflects the castle." In good times in June, on the shores of Yingyue Lake, flowers are in full bloom all over the mountains and fields, including purplish and orange alpine primroses, pure and elegant little daisies, colorful hydrangea, and charming Phalaenopsis. It is beautiful and colorful in the drizzle and the sun.

Beside the flowers by the lake, there are many silly cute pet sculptures for tourists to take photos and check in. Passing through the short stone arch bridge, we come to the heart of Yingyue Lake, where there are also beautiful props for tourists to take photos. When you are in it, you will encounter a strong European scenery. Say goodbye to the long journey and you can "click" a beautiful photo of European characters here.

The sky is green and misty. A sudden summer rain covered the Xiling Snow Mountains with a layer of gauze, which seemed to be visible and hazy. In an instant, the mountain breeze came slowly, blowing away the rain and fog, and the sky gradually cleared up. The distant mountains are like Dai, and the clouds are ethereal. The rolling sea of clouds gives this celestial mountain magical color with its changeable figure, making it more charming and moving.

Behind the Yingyue Lake is the Xiling Snow Mountain Ski Resort. Skiing in winter and skiing in summer. In midsummer, with lush grass and green grass sea, it is a good time to ski grass. The original ski dressing area has become a dressing area for summer grass skiing. I originally thought that grass skiing was easier than skiing, but after trying it once, I realized that this was not the case. Walking on the grass wearing crawler boots is as heavy as a tank locomotive. If your own power is insufficient and you cannot master the essentials of grass skiing, walking will be extremely inconvenient and far less flexible than skiing.

In addition to grass skiing, you can also play on the thrilling grass magic carpet and take a go-kart to experience the speed and passion on the mountains and slopes. What is surprising is that Xiling Snow Mountain actually has an alpine racecourse next to the grass skiing area. In the white fence, green grass is green and new green, like wildflowers dotted with stars, blooming quietly on the meadow, and two round yurts leap up from the ground. In a trance, it is like walking into the grassland of Inner Mongolia, where you can enjoy the galloping horses and horses and feel the vastness of the grassland.

Walking from the go-kart camp towards Yingyue Lake, facing the gentle mountain breeze, the wind chimes on the lake jingle. The blue and white high stools and long tables are accompanied by the Yingyue Lake with lakes and mountains, which is beautiful. It is comparable to the Internet celebrity photo shoot location in Erhai Lake. Along the lakeside path, continue to travel for dozens of meters and you will arrive at the children's play area of Xiling Snow Mountain. There are children's tourist projects such as trojans, swings, and slides, where you can enjoy a warm parent-child relationship with your children.

I never thought that this mountain forest amusement park hidden deep in the alpine meadow would be so wonderful. It could not only enjoy various entertainment projects without forgetting to make up for childhood regrets. You can also take a group of childlike portraits in this golden fairytale world-like playground.

Riyueping, a fantasy world

The high plateau connects the Han Dynasty at night, and the peaks rise and fall like rivers. Looking at the beautiful scenery of Western Shu, the red sun going out to sea is particularly beautiful. Riyueping is a fantasy world. It is common here to see clouds and mist, vast and magnificent, and there is also a God-changing Buddha's light, a colorful sunrise, a rainbow circling the sun, and an incredible sun and moon shine together.

Strolling through Riyueping, you can quietly enjoy the dreamlike Penglai Wonderland, feel the lofty ambition of Cangshan to embrace snow, and experience the poetic and picturesque feeling of seeing the small mountains at a glance. Legend has it that the "Forest Buddha's Light" in Riyueping is beyond ordinary people's sight. Anyone who sees it will surely have great luck and a rich life!

However, on the top of the mountain in midsummer, the weather is ever-changing. Coinciding with a summer rain, it stretched from the middle of the mountain to the top of the mountain. In the slight drizzle, the dancing primeval jungle is mottled and shaded. In the silent mountains and forests, the playful little squirrel, like a naughty child, braving the misty summer rain, jumped happily on the branches and plank roads, playing alone in the rain. White alpine flowers stretch in the rain and bloom quietly. In the low grass, goose-yellow birds were also dancing happily in the rain. When it discovered a crowd approaching, it spread its wings and took off in a moment, and disappeared into the mountains and forests covered by rain and fog. It was unknown where it was going.

It is said that Xiling Snow Mountains have six scenery on each mountain, and three seasons pass in a day. This is true, there is indeed such a strange thing. Due to the influence of altitude, terrain and climate, the weather on the first platform at the foot of the mountain, the second platform at the semi-mountain ski resort, and the weather on the Riyueping Dishan platform at the top of the mountain are often different.

If the sky on the top of the mountain is clear, walk along the winding plank road and stroll through Riyueping, you can overlook the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the mountains and seas. As time and seasons change, the scenery on the mountain changes rapidly. The mountainside was shrouded in fog, but the top of the mountain was sunny. When you come to Riyueping, the most common thing is the rolling sea of clouds. Only the peaks of the mountains are exposed one by one, like small islands in the sea, hidden and hidden in the clouds and mist, making people feel as if they have entered a fairyland. The clouds of clouds winding around the mountains are like jade belts tied between the mountainsides.

As time went by, the clouds of clouds in the mountains gradually faded out. The snowy pond in the distance is like a bath. It is holy and majestic, and it is colorful, making people wonder. Standing on the observation deck and looking around, the scenery is different. If the sky is high and the clouds are clear, you can also see the style of other famous mountains and rivers in the river. The ravines and ravines under your feet hide the primitive jungle where giant pandas live, called "Panda Forest". The vegetation in the territory is rich and beautiful, birds sing and flowers are fragrant, winding paths lead to the secluded scenery, and the scenery is pleasant. No wonder this wonderful immortal mountain is very popular among tourists. As for climbing mountains, what kind of scenery can you see? It really "depends on character".

Yin and Yang, the dividing line of nature

It is a great tragedy to be separated between Yin and Yang, but the Yin and Yang Realm, which is rare in the Xiling Snow Mountain, is a spectacle. Winding down the sightseeing plank road of Xueyang and arriving at Baishaigang, you can have a panoramic view of the Yin and Yang Realm.

A huge mountain is divided in two by the scenic spot's sightseeing plank road. One side is shrouded in clouds and mist, and one side is clear at a glance. This place seems to be the place where heaven and earth meet, separated by a thin line, there are two beautiful scenery, and all the tourists coming and going are amazed by it.

The poem says: Look at the white sand and the sky are uneven, and the two worlds of yin and yang are clearly defined. The sky is clear and clear in the south of the gang, and the thick clouds in the north are pressing the city. These mountain and forest wonders are rare in the world, and they are indeed the shining spots that Xiling Snow Mountain is proud of.

On the mountain roads in this area, in addition to the wonders of the Yin and Yang Realm, there are often lively elven envoys in the mountains quietly flashing. They are cute little squirrels. Regardless of wind and rain, they often flash among the pine forests. These innocent "little cute" are very popular among tourists. Under the trees, the lively and random strings add a touch of life to this silent picture of mountains and rivers and scenery, making it more flexible and beautiful.

Xiling Tasty Delicious

A comfortable trip and an indispensable feast. When you come to Xiling Snow Mountain, if the time is right, you must try snow kimchi. It is sweet and sour and has endless aftertaste.

The food of Xiling Snow Mountain is mainly distributed in a circle of food courts in Yingyue Lake Square and hotels around Xiling Snow Mountain Ski Resort. The area around Yingyue Lake Square is dominated by snacks, including Chinese food, hot pot, Dicos fast food, supermarket convenience stores, and commissaries.

In addition, almost all hotels near Xiling Snow Mountain Ski Resort offer meals at varying prices. Among them, the visitor center restaurant next to the ski resort has the best taste. Here, you can eat fragrant Sichuan cuisine, classic bacon sausage, Maoxuewang, Mapo tofu, twice-cooked pork, etc., and recently a new soup pot has been added.

In Yingxue Shoufeng Biyuan in Riyueping, due to the altitude, breakfast mainly provides porridge, side dishes, eggs, steamed buns, and steamed buns; dinner mainly provides small soup pots.

Chengdu's highest beautiful hotel

The accommodation in Xiling Snow Mountain Scenic Area is distributed regionally. Among them, there are Snow Hotel, Maple Leaf Hotel, Yingxue Hotel, etc. near the ski resort at an altitude of more than 2000 meters.
Nowadays, on the top of the Xiling Snow Mountain Ski Resort Scenic Area, there is a new hotel where you can watch the sunrise. It is the Yingxue Shoufeng Villa. Located next to Riyueping Cableway Station at an altitude of 3250 meters, there are ten rooms in total.

Shoufeng Bieyuan is the highest hotel in Chengdu and the only hotel on the top of Xiling Snow Mountain. Living here, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of watching the sea of clouds and the sunrise during the day and the starry sky and the galaxy at night without taking a cableway.

In the past, it was a transit point for mountain climbers from Qianshan. Now, after the reform of Xiling Snow Mountain Scenic Area, it has become the highest beautiful place in the whole mountain. The rooms in the entire hotel are mainly retro and elegant in style, with complete supporting facilities, which greatly meet the needs of living.


scene

Escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, hide in the primeval jungle, and have a cool summer. Wander through the scenic spots of Xiling Snow Mountains and enjoy the picturesque scenery. The Dragon Boat Festival holiday is approaching, so it's better to ask three to five friends to go on a cool date in high mountains, and wander around it, and enjoy it instead of the other.
