Popular Best Things to Do in Qianwei County [2025]

We avoided the crowds during the National Day holiday and spent two days in Qianwei with our family, visiting the Jiayang Steam Train! It was a very memorable trip, and actually quite good value for money. The train ride takes 70 minutes, with two jet shows along the way, and each carriage has a guide who explains things in great detail!

It was a fantastic trip, and Qianwei has so many delicious foods!

The real mining environment and the buildings from the 50s and 60s are very experiential for both adults and children, and there are also many amusement projects inside. Very good

NOTE: THERE IS NO LONGER THE NORMAL TRAIN, ONLY THE TOURIST TRAIN THAT RUNS TWICE DAILYsteam train ticket is 80 yuan each way. Dangdang tram from Bagou station to the mine pit is 10 yuan each way, or you can walk through the mining town or along the tracks, less than 30 minute walk either way. mine pit entry is 80 yuan. the steam train journey was less than 50 minutes one way, it only stopped once along the way for the steam show. For 80 yuan it felt short and rushed. all the staff I encountered besides the guide in the train were rude and shouty. I travelled a long way to experience this train and it&rsquo;s a shame many of the staff don&rsquo;t seem to care about the train nor the guests experience. Besides those issues it&rsquo;s a beautiful and rare experience and I 10/10 recommend it. a true living museum. take time to explore Bagou town, beautifully preserved and historic.

The train has hard seats, so the ride is a bit shaky, but it&#39;s acceptable. It&#39;s clean overall. The staff will remind you to close the windows when the steam locomotive is running and in tunnels. You can hardly smell any irritating smell. At this time, the sweet-scented osmanthus is fragrant, and there are flowers blooming on the mountain. It&#39;s not spectacular, but it&#39;s good. There are many pomelo trees with pomelo, bamboo, golden osmanthus, silver osmanthus, and amaranth along the way...

The only problem I think is that the steam locomotive will honk more often when it is running. Adults can still accept it in the carriage, but children may not be able to do it. When waiting for the train at the station, the front of the train will add coal and blow the whistle. It will be very harsh when you listen to it outdoors, and you don&rsquo;t know when it will sound, which will startle you [crack]. During the 5-minute steam show, at the end of the steam show, the harsh sound reaches its peak. It is so harsh that adults cannot bear it, and children certainly cannot bear it. Therefore, it is recommended that you must prepare earplugs for your child in advance, or the large earmuffs must be better soundproof. During the train show, I will definitely help him cover his ears with earplugs. It was really too harsh at the end...
Overall, it is still okay to bring children here. Pay attention to the above details yourself. Another thing is that children under 4 years old should not come here. It is really meaningless and it is even more troublesome...

If you go from other cities, you can fly to Yibin. It takes one and a half hours to drive from Yibin to Jiayang Small Train Scenic Area. The better hotels nearby are about one hour on the way. However, there are few flights in Yibin. It is also one hour drive from here to Leshan Giant Buddha. If you go from Leshan, you can plan it.

It is recommended to rent a car in advance and drive yourself. Parking is very convenient in the scenic area. Local drivers drive faster. It is a mountain road. It is safer to bring children with you to rent a car with a safety seat. When I came, the driver drove a 120-mile chain of mountain roads. You can feel it [crack][crack][crack]... That&#39;s it, back to Chengdu [goodbye]
