On the way back to Kunming, we will pass through Panzhihua So we arranged a spontaneous one-day tour of Panzhihua Because of the tight schedule, we had a meal in the city after getting off the high-speed rail, Then we went straight to Yishala Ancient Village ⛰️Entertainment The Jinsha River Grand Canyon is a must-visit❗️ Free🆓 You can reach it by walking or by bus (it's quite hard to walk up) Glass viewing platform + original landscape 🌟Yishala Ancient Village An undeveloped Yi village, if you don't like the countryside, don't go, you will find it boring, the red house is a feature, it really looks a bit like Xiaoseda. 🚗Transportation Panzhihua Renhe Bus Station - Pingdizhen - Jinsha River Grand Canyon - Yishala 💰70-80/person The best way is to ask, let the bus station driver take you to the Jinsha River for a tour and then to Yishala. Remember to leave the driver's phone number, you can call the driver to pick you up from Yishala back to Panzhihua city. Others have shared that you can call a tricycle, but to be honest, I haven't seen it myself, I feel that the bus station master is reliable during the off-peak tourist season. 🏠Accommodation: There are only 2-3 homestays in Yishala, we chose Yishanlan which is about 1 kilometer from the center of the village, another one is in the village, both can provide meals, there is also a Zheng's sisters in the village (anyway, it's called something sisters), providing simple farmhouse meals and ethnic clothing rental for 50 yuan a day. 🏨Yishanlan is quite good for taking pictures, but the price is high, the cheapest room is almost 400, generally 400➕ or 500➕, in terms of facilities, it's really average We took a look at the other homestay later, it's not bad, the price is 200➕ per room. ✨Summary Panzhihua is delicious, Yishala is okay~

It takes about an hour's drive from Panzhihua city to reach the Jinsha River Grand Canyon and Yishala Village, known as the 'Little Seda' of Western Sichuan; Navigate to 'Shala Village', and there is a parking lot on your left after you arrive The village is well-arranged, The road to the Jinsha River Grand Canyon is on the right side of the village entrance, it's a narrow road, and it's difficult for large SUVs to pass; we parked our car in the parking lot, and then asked the staff at the local tourist center to help us contact a local car, we chartered it, and it took about 10 minutes to reach the entrance of the Jinsha River Grand Canyon Scenic Area; Compared to looking up at the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon; In the Jinsha River Grand Canyon, you can overlook the magnificent canyon; Our great motherland's mountains and rivers are worth our cherishing!!
