Chengdu surrounding tours, 5 off-the-beaten-path self-driving attractions

I don't know where to go for the weekend. In fact, there are many niche attractions around Chengdu, which can be reached by car in just 2 hours! Sisters who like taking photos can get ready.

Gan Haizi Scenic Area

Gan Haizi 'Little Alps', blue sky and white clouds, meadow with cattle, somewhat reminiscent of scenes from 'Heidi and Grandpa'.

Er Lang Mountain Laba River Scenic Area

Domestic 'Nara Park', perfect for fresh air, flower viewing, monkey teasing, deer watching, and convenient for seeing the sea of clouds and sunrise. Known as 'Little Nara of China', it has nearly 260 species of wild animals and 1500 species of rare plants. You can have close contact with deer without going to Nara.

Lavender Manor

Xinduqiao 'Provence', a super romantic lavender field, perfect for photography! It's best for sisters coming to take photos to wear light-colored dresses.

Hehai Garden

The 'Maldives' of China, with palm silver beaches, overwater bungalows, sea view homestays, sightseeing trains... A great summer destination! There is a children's playground, so kids will have a lot of fun too!

Yaan Jiao Ding Mountain

The 'Little Switzerland' of Western Sichuan, with sea of clouds, sunrise, golden mountain at sunrise, sunset starry sky, yak wooden houses, alpine meadows... You can also camp in tents, under the starry sky and amidst the sea of clouds, or stay in small wooden houses in the meadows to get closer to nature.
