Chengdu Surrounding Tour | The Sichuan people who belong to sunflowers in early winter, of course, enjoy the sun and ginkgo on weekends
On a lazy winter afternoon,
The ginkgo leaves and the sun blend into a golden yellow,
It's a romantic and relaxed early winter!
This should be the place with the most and yellowest ginkgo recently,
At present, ginkgo has rendered 70%,
When we went, not every tree had turned yellow,
But many of the yellowed leaves are about to fall off,
Now is the best time to watch and take pictures.
✅Address🍂: Yangma River Ginkgo Garden
✅Play time⌛️: 0.5~1 day
✅Transportation🚗: Self-driving from Yangxi Interchange, it takes only about 0.5 hours to get to Yangma River Ginkgo Garden.
✅Parking🅿️: You can park in the park, but parking spaces are limited. If you go late, it's not easy to park. Many people park directly on the side of the road. I heard that sometimes the police uncle posts fines, so pay more attention~
✅Cost💰: Cleaning fee 10RMB/person, parking fee is free
✅Suitable for📸: Sunbathing, photography, outdoor barbecue, hot pot, etc.
⚠️Precautions:
① Try to go during good weather during the week. There are too many people on weekends, it is very crowded, parking is very difficult, and it is difficult to find a shooting angle! Be sure to go early on weekends!
② There are very few toilets, and when there are many people, you have to wait in line for a long time.
③ Now the ginkgo fruit has fallen to the ground and has a strong smell. If you are not used to it, you should avoid it.
④ There is a river in the park, pay attention if you bring children!

The aesthetics of "Dream of the Red Chamber" in Sichuan can be found in Chongzhou. In recent years, the aesthetics of "Dream of the Red Chamber" has become a trend in academia, film, and even theater, with numerous works inspired by the novel. Many people don't know that the 1987 TV series "Dream of the Red Chamber" was filmed at the Chongzhou Yanhuachi Museum, making Chongzhou the home of Sichuan's "Dream of the Red Chamber" aesthetics.
The Chongzhou Yanhuachi Museum is a masterpiece of classical gardens in western Sichuan, showcasing typical western Sichuan garden scenery. The museum covers an area of 97 acres and consists of the only Tang Dynasty official garden in China, the only Lu You Temple in China, and the only complete ancient Confucian temple in the Chengdu area.
The layout of the garden, with its ponds, courtyards, pavilions, bridges, towers, and bonsai, gives visitors the illusion of strolling through a Jiangnan garden. This unique scenery not only attracted the 1987 TV series "Dream of the Red Chamber" to film here but also drew the cast of "Family," starring Lu Yi, Huang Lei, Huang Yi, Li Xiaoran, and Xue Jianning, to shoot scenes here. It is a place where many celebrities have stopped and lingered.
Travel tips:

Chengdu! A courtyard with a private hot spring!! Worth it for two people.
Not Nara, but Chengdu!!! Just checked out, will go again next time
★About the courtyard
The hotel is located next to Jiezi Ancient Town. The mountain view wooden house has a very Chinese flavor. The courtyard is paved with stone roads, full of texture, and the scenery is beautiful. The stay experience is very good! The hotel with private hot spring is very beautiful, and there are two sika deer to play with
About the room
There are hot springs both indoors and outdoors, and the wild and natural feeling is full! During the day, you can drink tea and read books in the room, or have afternoon tea and picnic on the super large lawn. It is very private and quiet. From the moment you enter the door, every receptionist is very enthusiastic. Both adults and children are super happy
A super comfortable forest stream hiking trail.
Depart from the west gate of Chengdu, and arrive at Chongzhou Beixi Wetland Park in 40 minutes. The park has a rural stream and forest feel, with a trail built along the river, and tall fir trees, locust trees, and bamboo groves providing shade along the way.
The wetland park is very natural, with no gate, and you can enter along the path. The entire loop is about 5 km long, and you can hike or cycle.
The road is flat, suitable for the whole family to hike leisurely, and is easy for the elderly and children.
The late-blooming osmanthus flowers are in bloom this year, and you can walk along the forest trail, listen to the stream, and smell the osmanthus fragrance. There are pavilions and public toilets along the trail, and there is a tea and coffee room by a paddy field. When the paddy field turns yellow, sitting by the window of the tea and coffee room is also very healing!
Navigate directly to the south entrance of Chongzhou Beixi Wetland or the northwest of Xiaoluo Village Square in Chongzhou!
Depart from the west gate of Chengdu, about 0.5 hours by car, super convenient! [Parking] There is no dedicated parking lot in the park at present. We entered from the northwest entrance and parked at Xiaoluo Village Square. There is also a parking lot about 100 meters near the south entrance.
Yanhuachi Park, Chongzhou (Chengdu).
The only Tang Dynasty official garden in China, the only Lu You Temple in China, the only complete ancient Confucian Temple in Chengdu, 25 km from Chengdu. The park is more beautiful in late autumn and early winter in November when the sun is out, with colorful leaves and glazed tiles of ancient buildings shining in the sun. Many people take photos here.

🍜|Food: 1. Chongzhou specialty buckwheat noodles, go straight from the north gate of the Confucian Temple (No. 134, Xuefu Street, Chongyang Street) to a local restaurant called Zhou Buckwheat Noodles, which is very popular among locals. Personally, I think it is not as good as the buckwheat noodles in Chengdu. There is also a restaurant called Yu Buckwheat Noodles, but I haven't tried it.
2. Huaiyuan Three Delicacies (Ye'erba, Frozen Cake, Tofu Curtain), but most people only buy Ye'erba and Frozen Cake.
