Jiulong Mountain, Mianzhu, Deyang | A different weekend experience.

Can't go on weekends! Today, I'm going to share a hiking route that we've been to twice. It's very chill and almost no one goes there. It's also very family-friendly! 🩵 It takes one hour to drive from Chengdu to Mianzhu. First, go to Shiyangzi to have a bowl of authentic mutton rice noodles with extra meat, blood, and offal. Haha, eat your fill before exercising! 🩷 Drive to Jiulong Mountain, Mianzhu. There are many places to park at the foot of the mountain, and there are small vendors selling food. There are very few tourists. You can walk along a small path by the river from the foot of the mountain. It's cool and comfortable, and there are pavilions along the way to rest. You can also drive to the place where the road is blocked and park there, but you have to pay for parking here, CNY 10 per car. Then walk back a few steps and there is a mountain road on the right, which is the start of the hiking route. 🩵 The whole journey takes about 2 hours. It's all stone paths in the mountains, easy and fun to walk. The vegetation along the way is dense, making it very comfortable to walk. The kids learned a lot about plants along the way and found crabs in the cracks of the stones under the mountain spring! There is a big bell on the top of the mountain, where you can ring the bell to pray for your family. The altitude is 1,500 meters. There is also a flying camp on the mountain, where you can go paragliding, which is very interesting. The whole journey is very fun. 🩷 It's not only fun, easy to walk, and beautiful, but also less crowded, making the whole atmosphere very chill! If you want to go on a short, interesting, and less crowded route, this is definitely recommended!
