Where are the best places for a self-driving tour in Sichuan Province? 6 most beautiful destinations for self-driving tour to keep you entertained all summer

After the summer, the southwestern Sichuan region switches to a paradise-like state. A flower, a cloud, a mountain, a lake...all are beautiful like a series of paintings from a utopia. Starting from June, Sichuan will provide enough attractions for you to enjoy the whole summer!

Yelagin Island

In June, there are two most beautiful places in China, besides the well-known Xinjiang Yili, the other one is the little-known Omudon! Green grass, blue sky, colorful flower fields, and winding rivers, this is Omudon in June, a place known as the "most beautiful grassland flower sea". Omudon is located in Rangkou Township, Hongyuan County, Aba Prefecture, Sichuan Province, a grassland flower sea only 370 kilometers away from Chengdu. Various colored flowers bloom, covering the mountains and spreading endlessly. The size and density of the flower sea are rare in the plateau grassland area.

Cuopo Gou

There is a place like the Peach Blossom Spring described by Tao Yuanming, like a place where immortals live in seclusion, like the "Shambhala" in Tibetan Buddhist scriptures. It is an idyllic paradise that people long for, and a photographer's creative paradise. It encompasses the beautiful scenery of western Sichuan and even the entire Tibetan region... This place is called Cuopugou, known as the "Eastern Alps" by hikers.

Seda

Seda, a place you must visit in this lifetime! Located in Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan Province, and adjacent to Golog Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Qinghai Province. It is home to the largest Buddhist academy in the world, Larung Gar Buddhist Academy (Seda Buddhist Academy). The people here are devout and faithful, as if in another world. So, if you have time, come here to pay respect and immerse yourself in the world of Buddhism, to witness their practice and way of life.

Sergei

Ruoergai is known as the "oasis of the northwest plateau of Sichuan." It ranks first among the six most beautiful marsh wetlands selected by "China National Geographic." The vast grasslands against the blue sky appear even more spacious, filled with blooming flowers and scattered cattle and sheep, creating a breathtaking view.

Ta Gong Grassland

"Tagong" in Tibetan means "a place loved by bodhisattvas". The Sichuan-Tibet Highway passes through it, with gentle slopes, vast grasslands, abundant water and grass, and groups of cattle and sheep. In the eyes of photographers, this is a stunning filming location, even in winter under the snow-capped mountains, Tagong is still beautiful. From late June to early August every year, it is the most beautiful and lively season on the Tagong grassland, and if you're lucky, you may also catch the grand traditional horse racing event.

Muya Sacred Land

Muya is truly a beautiful place with few people. Here, there are grasslands like those in Zoige, and a winding "Mother River" like the Nine Bend Yellow River. The mountains here are continuous, and you can even hear devout chanting... Muya Holy Land in Kangding is located on the west side of the famous love song city - Kangding's Zheduo Mountain. It is the first scenic area in the country with Tibetan Muya culture as the theme.
