“Recommend 10 travel destinations that I think are unpopular and interesting. After graduation, I did not go to work immediately. I chose to take a gap year Visited more than 100 cities in China - 2023 travel is open I guess most of the tourist attractions have too many tourists and commercialization. This article shares 9 niche travel destinations that healed me I hope you can go see it too. - ❶ Baisha Ancient Town Located in Lijiang, Yunnan; enjoy the sun, play with the cats, sit and drink coffee every day, and look up to see the snow-capped mountains. The temperature will be more comfortable from December to February, and there is real snow on Yulong Snow Mountain. . ❷Litang Located in Ganzi, Sichuan; the city in the sky at an altitude of 4,000 meters is not only a city, but also the undeveloped Genyen South Line nearby. It is surrounded by snow-capped mountains and lakes in spring and summer, and small wild flowers bloom all over the grassland. . ❸Zhagana Located in Gannan, Gansu; a hidden paradise, I think it is a bit like the Zhangjia Ancient Building in Banai; snow-capped mountains, holy lakes, blue sky, wilderness, quiet villages, cabins, yaks and sheep in the sea of ​​flowers, and smoke from cooking in the valley in the evening . ❹Rain collapse Located in Diqing, Yunnan; the stunning scenery is only visible on foot. The Cordyceps Line and the Shenhu Line walk under the Meili Snow Mountain and among the primeval forests, with squirrels, birds, glacier canyons, etc. . ❺ Leng Gacuo Located in Ganzi, Sichuan; Snow-capped White Horse, Starry River and Ever-bright ~ I have been to so many snow-capped mountains, but the King of Sichuan Mountains, Gongga, is so beautiful that it makes me "thrilled" . ❻Mount Everest Located in Shigatse, Tibet; it is said that anyone who sees the Golden Mountain in the Rising Sun will be lucky for the whole year! First of all, the altitude sickness will screen out a large number of people. To see the golden mountain in the sun, you have to get up in the middle of the night to go to the Jiawula Pass, which will also screen out a large number of people. . ❼Shata Located in Yili, Xinjiang; step into the real Wizard of Oz, where herdsmen’s cabins are dotted among the mountains, and the peaks of the snow-capped mountains in the distance glow in the clouds🏔️ . ❽Weishan Ancient City Located in Dali, Yunnan; I guess not many people know about this place. This is the ancient Nanzhao Kingdom in the Legend of Sword and Fairy. But what impressed me most was that the snacks here are so delicious! ! . ❾Sichuan Islands Located in Ningde, Fujian; the real-life version of Zelda, an undeveloped wild island stands alone in the middle of the sea, like a giant dragon lying down, or like a meteorite relic. . ❿Chongzuo Located in Chongzuo, Guangxi; a small border town on the border between China and Vietnam, it is surrounded by beautiful and unique karst landforms, with thousands of mountains abrupt and continuous, and rice fields scattered in between. . It is said that "the harder it is to reach a place, the more it touches people's hearts" Except for Baisha and Weishan, the above 10 places are not easy to reach.

Setting off for Gannan on March 15th is how I'm starting my 2025 journey. With fewer tourists, it feels like having the whole place to myself, and the scenery is absolutely breathtaking, offering a truly immersive experience. Amidst the wilderness, distant mountains reflect in the holy lake, creating a stunning panorama between heaven and earth. March is the best time to see snow-capped mountains in Gannan, and it's also the perfect season for encountering wildlife. Flocks of waterbirds fly over Gahai Lake, boasting scenery that surpasses even Namtso. The snow-covered, less-traveled "Little Duku Highway," devoid of tourists, allows herds of sika deer and blue eared pheasants to return to their canyons. Only by seeing them with your own eyes can you truly appreciate the spirits of the forest. The mist rising from the mountains of Zhagana adds a touch of mystery to the ancient Tibetan villages. For scenic accommodation, I recommend staying near the Deba Village viewing platform. Shan Wang Panoramic Sunrise and Cloud View Homestay is a great choice. Be sure to watch out for snow-covered sections of the road and have snow chains ready. Avoid attempting to cross particularly challenging sections unless you have a 4WD vehicle, to prevent getting stuck.

It is said that Western Sichuan is the favorite destination for self-driving enthusiasts. Having traveled countless times to Western Sichuan, we chose to travel in the opposite direction this winter and went to Northern Sichuan. It turns out that this Gannan loop, which runs through Sichuan and Gansu, is so beautiful❗ Gannan in winter is like a hidden paradise, mysterious and breathtaking... ⭐Treasured spots on the Gannan loop—— 1️⃣ Awancang Wetland: China · Gansu · Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture 📌 Located in Awancang Town, Maqu County, Gannan (Maqu: Tibetan for "Yellow River," is the only county in China named after the Yellow River), it was rated as the first of the "Five Most Beautiful Grassland Wetlands in China" by *China National Geographic*.

The weather was great when we passed by, and the blue sky and white clouds ☁️ added to the scenery. Here, the river loops, thousands of mountains compete in shape, and the Nine Bends of the Yellow River looks magnificent and has obvious curves. It is said that the best viewing period here is from May to September, but I think winter adds a sense of tranquility and harmony, as if you are in a fairyland. Walking along the boardwalk, surrounded by vast grasslands and free cattle and sheep 🐏, you may also encounter rare wild animals such as Tibetan wild donkeys and Tibetan gazelles, feeling the vitality of nature 🍃, and the beauty is endless. In the morning 🌞 and evening, the soft sunlight is perfect for capturing the beauty of the lake, snow-capped mountains 🏔️, and wetlands. -- 2️⃣ Zhagana: Diebu County, Gannan, Gansu Province Altitude: around 3,000m (Zhagana · Tibetan means "stone box"), rated by *National Geographic* as a must-visit place in one's lifetime. 🕰️ Best travel time: June-September, the grasslands are green in summer, and the scenery is super beautiful.

Zhagana in winter is more profound and mysterious. 📌 Zhagana includes four villages, from bottom to top: Dongwa Village, Yeri Village, Dari Village, and Daiba Village. There are 4 viewing platforms: "Dari Viewing Platform, Locke Viewing Platform, Shimen Viewing Platform, and Xiannvtan Viewing Platform." Among them, the Dari Viewing Platform is the highest viewing platform and a must-visit spot for watching the sunrise 📷. We had limited time and only went to two viewing platforms. If time permits, you can also embark on a Locke's journey self-driving tour from Zhagana❗ -- Spending a day driving on this loop, the comfortable feeling of being away from the city's high-rise buildings lingers for a long time. This kind of trip is really awesome ❤️
