Recommended Photography Spots for Rainy Waterfalls

Songpan Muni Valley is definitely worth a visit! This place hides so many surprises—waterfalls, colorful pools, and primeval forests all in one. Every shot you take looks like a masterpiece. Hurry before it gets too popular! 🌟 Highlights 📍 Muni Valley Scenic Area: The Zaga Waterfall here is incredibly stunning, with a huge volume of water that's especially spectacular. Remember to bring a raincoat or waterproof jacket, as the mist will soak your clothes when you get close. The colorful pools at Erdao Lake are also breathtaking; under sunlight, the colors shift like a painter’s palette. 📍 Nearby Attractions 1⃣️ Songpan Ancient Town: About 30 kilometers from Muni Valley, it features well-preserved Ming Dynasty city walls and has a particularly charming night view. 2⃣️ Chuanzhusi: A Tibetan Buddhist temple with a golden roof that glistens in the sunlight. 3⃣️ Huanglong Scenic Area: If you have enough time, it’s worth a visit on the way. The Five-Color Pond is very famous. 🍜 Food Recommendations You must try the yak meat hotpot in Songpan; the meat is especially tender! We recommend "Plateau Red Yak Meat Restaurant"—generous portions and affordable prices. Tibetan-style yogurt is also distinctive, with a thick texture and a slightly sour taste. 🏠 Accommodation Suggestions You can stay in Songpan County, where conditions are better and there are more options. If you want to experience Tibetan style, you can choose a Tibetan guesthouse near Muni Valley, though the facilities will be simpler. 💡 Useful Tips 1⃣️ Muni Valley is about 3,000 meters above sea level; be mindful of altitude sickness and avoid strenuous exercise. 2⃣️ Some paths in the scenic area are slippery; it’s recommended to wear non-slip shoes. 3⃣️ The best time to visit is from May to October; some areas close in winter. 4⃣️ Remember to bring cash, as some small stalls only accept cash.

Mounigou Scenic Area

Our first stop on this trip to Songpan, Sichuan, was the Munigou Scenic Area—a vibrant mix of waterfalls, mountains, forests, and shimmering lakes, showcasing the purest natural charm of western Sichuan! If you're a waterfall enthusiast like me, Munigou is definitely worth a visit: the first few waterfalls are breathtaking, with silvery water cascading against the rocks. The scenery is ten times more beautiful than in photos. On clear days, the verdant mountains surrounding the water create a truly hidden ink painting! If you want to avoid crowds but still connect with nature, this itinerary is perfect.
