Chengdu is a magical city. It may not see snow in the urban area for years, but it only takes two hours to drive to the foot of the snowy mountains. Du Fu's ancient quatrain "The window contains thousands of autumn snow in Xiling, and the door is anchored by Dongwu Wanli Boat" gave the name "Xiling Snow Mountain" to this snowy mountain closest to the urban area of Chengdu. Its main peak, Xuetang, is 5364 meters above sea level, making it the highest peak in Chengdu. No one has conquered it yet.

Chengdu people are always crazy about snow, so the nearest Xiling Snow Mountain will become a super popular attraction in winter, but everyone must not think that the Xiling Snow Mountain is only beautiful in winter."Enjoy rhododendrons in spring and summer, and watch red leaves in autumn and skiing in winter." In fact, the Xiling Snow Mountain is very beautiful all year round and worth visiting. In addition to the silver clothing in winter, the different seasons of the Xiling Snow Mountain are their own characteristics. It is now midsummer. Xiling Snow Mountain is definitely an excellent summer resort. It is so cool that you will forget that it is in summer. There are also delicate primroses and pure and fresh little daisies on the Yingxue Lake... Dress up the entire Xiling Snow Mountain super beautiful!

Many friends don't know that the Xiling Snow Mountain is divided into a front mountain and a back mountain. The front mountain is a "Dafei Water" scenic spot, which is more suitable for mountain climbing. It is currently closed during the epidemic but not open; and the Xiling Snow Mountain Scenic Area we often mention is the back mountain. You can directly navigate the "Xiling Snow Mountain Ski Resort" by driving.

Take the "Yuanyanchi Cableway" from the foot of Houshan Mountain, and then take the scenic bus for about 10 minutes to come to Yingxue Square, a half-mountain at an altitude of 2155 meters, which is the location of the winter ski resort. Now it is surrounded by flowers under the blue sky and white clouds. Yingxue Lake is the protagonist here. The blue water is surrounded by primroses, small daisies, etc. blooming around it, like a sapphire inlaid among the Xiling Snow Mountains. It is extremely dazzling!

Yingxue Lake is full of all kinds of colorful flowers, mainly rose-red primroses and white daisies. This is the most suitable place to take photos. Under the blue sky, next to the lake, and among the flowers, you can use a casual photo to blow up your circle of friends.

In summer, the temperature in the middle of the Xiling Snow Mountain is the most comfortable. In addition to the Yingxue Lake surrounded by flowers, there are also many entertainment activities here. In winter, the ski resort has become a skiing grassland, as well as zip ropes, ATV off-road vehicles, rock climbing, archery, grass slides, etc., and now there are super discount package activities. The original pass worth more than 300 yuan now only costs 90 yuan/person, and you can enjoy it all day.

If you are tired, there are also a variety of delicious food to choose from, including large restaurants, small snack and fast food restaurants, supermarket convenience stores, and even Dicos. Of course, you can also bring your own delicious food and find an open space for a small picnic. It is also very good (be sure to protect environmental sanitation).

For restaurants in the scenic area, the food at Yingxue Restaurant is quite good, and it is not inferior to the taste outside.

There is also a 2.5-kilometer-long cableway-Riyueping Cableway from the middle of the mountain to the top of the mountain-Riyueping Cableway. It spans 1,000 meters above sea level. This is currently the longest cableway in my country. As the cableway slowly rises, it overlooks the dazzling Yingxue Lake. Lake, Yingxue Lake gradually disappears, and then reaches the clouds of clouds in the sky. The beautiful scenery in front of you keeps changing, making you intoxicated and unknowingly arrive at Riyueping at an altitude of 3250 meters.

Riyueping is the best place to watch the sunrise of the sea of clouds on the Xiling Snow Mountain. If you are lucky, you can still see the Buddha's light. When you turn around, you can overlook the highest peak of the Xiling Snow Mountain-Miaojiling (Xueyang).

There is a very large viewing platform in Riyueping. Looking into the distance, there are endless mountains. As the weather changes rapidly, sometimes the clouds are shrouded in clouds and sometimes the sun shines. After a light rain, you will still see rainbows in the mountains. Just standing here, you can feel all kinds of beautiful scenery.

The highest point that can be climbed in the scenic area is Hongshijian, which is the closest place to Miaojiling, the main peak of Xiling Snow Mountain. It is a natural viewing platform, overlooking the large snow-capped mountain that stretches for hundreds of miles in the distance. When you are lucky, you can see the "Rizhao Jinshan" spectacle.

Continue to move forward to another wonderful place in Xiling Snow Mountain-Yin-Yang Realm. Yin-Yang Realm is both a mountain peak and a watershed between two completely different climates. On one side is clear skies and clear blue skies; on the other side, clouds and mist surge, giving infinite mysterious reverie. However, the wonders of the Yin and Yang Realm are like Buddha's light, and you cannot see them every time. (I waited for almost half an hour. It was either fog on both sides or sunny on both sides)

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 are never absent every time. Every time they come to the Xiling Snow Mountain, they will see their lively and lovely figures, and they seem to be used to the frequent visits of tourists, and they don't have stage fright at all. They can jump around people at what they think is a safe distance, super cute.

Riyueping has the only hotel on the top of the mountain-Shoufeng Bieyuan. There are only 8 rooms here. If you want to see the sunset, sunrise and starry sky, this is the best choice. In winter, the rooms here will be full and the price is relatively expensive. Now there are super discount packages.

I remember the first time I came to Xiling Snow Mountain and arrived at Riyueping. Due to the high altitude and limited conditions, the restaurant in Shoufeng Bieyuan could only provide some very simple meals. Now after improvement, I can actually eat a super delicious meal. Delicious soup pot, especially when night falls and the temperature drops sharply, this soup pot can be comparable to the Manchu and Han feast.

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 good choice. Currently, there are super attractive discounts on tickets, hotels, and tours. Coupled with the invincible beauty of this snowy mountain that has been popular for thousands of years,"The window contains thousands of autumn snow in Xiling, and the door is anchored by Dongwu's thousands of miles." Just because of this ancient quatrain, it is worth a trip!
