Back from Western Sichuan, here’s a heads-up for sisters going in November

To all sisters heading to Western Sichuan in November: don’t rely on old travel guides, I just got back from there... The weather in Western Sichuan is really unpredictable, and it froze me badly! 🥶 Take this advice seriously and prepare well before you go. Here’s a travel guide for Western Sichuan that I hope will help everyone! - 【Travel Tips】 ✔️ Sichuan has experienced a widespread temperature drop, including Western Sichuan. Daytime temperatures are only around 15°C, and at night you’ll need an electric blanket or floor heating in Western Sichuan. ✔️ If the restrooms in Western Sichuan rest areas are built by local residents, they usually charge 1 yuan. Signal there is quite weak, so keep some 💰 small change on you. ✔️ Prepare in Chengdu: self-heating rice, glucose, dry shampoo spray, oxygen canisters, cola, water, and some easy-to-carry fruits. ✔️ Even if you don’t wash your hair or shower for three days in Western Sichuan, it’s fine. It’s very dry here, so no worries about oily hair. ✔️ It’s recommended not to go to Yuzixi on cloudy or rainy days 🌧️! The road up there is especially bad! You can choose the nearby Gedilamu instead. ✔️ The Western Sichuan travel route is very long, about 1800 kilometers, covering many attractions. If you don’t have enough time, plan your itinerary well and pick your favorite spots to visit. ✨About the itinerary: ✔️【Jiuzhaigou + Siguniang Mountain 4 days】 D1: Chengdu - Maobiniang Viewing Platform - Siguniang Mountain·Shuangqiao Valley - Dujiangyan D2: Dujiangyan - Songpan Ancient Town - Jiuzhaigou Entrance D3: Full day at Jiuzhaigou D4: Zhongcha Valley·Ancient Village Horse Herding - Huanglong - Chengdu - 🔶Packing Guide 👗Tops: quick-dry base layer + down vest + shell jacket, 👖Pants: quick-dry base layer + yoga pants + cargo pants, Socks should be thick, and bring gloves, lightweight and easy to move in. 【Autumn in Western Sichuan is short but very beautiful! 🍁 After autumn scenery comes snow scenery ❄️~】 -
