Suburban Chengdu | Cultural Hiking Day Trip Itinerary

Recently, I've been hiking in the suburbs, discovering some different ways to play. This time I came to Xinjin, which is super suitable for a day trip, and the scenery is not monotonous, both exercising the body and experiencing different cultures. We call it a cultural hike, walking around, not all in the mountains, and able to experience some interesting cultural features. ✅Recommended play: 1️⃣Wake up naturally in the morning, directly navigate to Laojun Mountain in Xinjin for hiking. Laojun Mountain is a famous Taoist mountain, mainly with the Hall of Primordial Chaos; Hall of Three Purities; Hall of Mercy. The incense here is strong, the scenery is pleasant, suitable for climbing and praying for blessings in the New Year. Suitable for the whole family, the overall difficulty is not great, the loop is about 3km. Although there are many steps, it doesn't take much knee effort. You can choose to have vegetarian meals at Laojun Mountain at noon 2️⃣After hiking Laojun Mountain, navigate to Baozi Mountain Forest Park. Actually, you can also hike here, but it's a bit rundown The biggest feature is an abandoned plane, children can go to see, also suitable for taking pictures Also suitable for cycling 3️⃣Taiping Old Street It's a lively, quiet and interesting old street. There are several interesting shops on the old street, and the shop owners are all very Buddhist, they all seem to be a group of people with stories and ideas. Take a walk to feel the old street, or sit down for a tea, it couldn't be more comfortable. 4️⃣Eat river fresh There are more river fresh in Xinjin, of course, the main push is yellow spicy ding or triangle peak, the taste is good and the price is cheap Recommendation: Song's Yellow Spicy Ding Claypot Blood Sausage Fatty Intestine TIPS Suitable for a family day trip Also suitable for three or four friends to travel together, can also be reached by bus and subway. For those who come to Chengdu during the New Year, choosing this one-day peripheral tour is also very good That's all for this share, see you next time in nature.
