Cloud Ancient Village·Jiuzi Village

🏚️ Jiuzi Village A secluded ancient Qiang village that is indifferent to the world Perched on a mountain top in Li County on the Western Sichuan Plateau About a 2.5H drive from downtown Chengdu 👉 Here 🏔️ Surrounded by snow-capped mountains ☁️ Misty clouds 🐑 Herds of cattle and sheep The abandoned old village is full of mystery and wild charm It is a truly existing wild secret realm Very suitable for a light hiking leisure trip from Chengdu 📍 Location | Aba Li County Jiuzi Village 🚘 Transportation | Self-driving (Chengdu-Wenchuan-Jiuzi Village) 🅿️ Parking | 🆓 ⚠️【Road Condition Strategy】 🚙 Departing from Chengdu, take the expressway to National Highway 317, with about 10KM of single-lane mountain cement road, which climbs high and is difficult to navigate, but there are passing places every certain distance. Not very friendly for novice drivers, it is recommended to have an experienced driver 🥾 About 2.5km away from the abandoned old village, there is forest fire control, where you can park your vehicle (for free) and then walk up the mountain after registering your information, climbing about 300m (tested that motorcycles can go up) 🏷️【Practical Information】 ▪ There are no supermarkets or convenience stores on the mountain, so you need to bring your own dry food; halfway up the new village, there are two cloud-end barbecues facing the snow mountain (Tianmeier & Niaoniao Barbecue), which you will pass on the mountain road. You can have barbecue before going up the mountain for a round trip in one day ▪ The abandoned ancient village is at an altitude of about 2600 meters, there is no problem with altitude sickness, but it is necessary to pay attention to keeping warm and sun protection ▪ The panoramic shooting location is in the meadow area behind the village, where you can capture the full view of the village and the snow-capped mountains ▪ You can use the window holes of the old village as a framing window for shooting, which is very interesting ▪ The playtime can be controlled in one afternoon, and you can return to Chengdu on the same day
