Live Your Best Lives
The Sichuan West Bamboo Sea Scenic Area is located in Pingle Town, Qionglai City, Chengdu. The scenic area has dense bamboo forests and deep canyons. The bamboo sea of more than 100,000 mu is lush and green. When the breeze blows, the blue waves surge and the momentum is majestic. The valley has strange rocks, clear springs, winding paths, and fresh air. It is known as a "natural oxygen bar".
With the introduction of railway climbing and rock climbing, outdoor sports have entered this secret place in western Sichuan. The quiet valley has become lively, the vast sea of bamboo has become more jubilant, and the Western Sichuan Bamboo Canyon Scenic Area has also gained the reputation of "the first town on the Silk Road and an outdoor paradise".

It’s not a big scenic area, but the scenery is great. The high-altitude suspension bridge, glass plank road, and towering bamboo forest can all give you more surprises.
The scenic area is closed and I didn’t see any relevant news on the Internet. I made a long trip and it was in vain. Friends, please pay attention.
A good place to escape the summer heat, where there are large tracts of bamboo forest.
Alas, it is difficult to buy tickets. I had to queue for 3 hours. There were so many scalpers in the queue that one person bought 10-20 tickets. The 40 tickets were sold for 100, and you can't get the tickets directly, but wait for the locals to queue up at the window. The glass plank road is more than 100 meters long. It doesn't look so steep, and it's not as scary as you imagine. The toilet is very dirty, and there is no water for washing hands. It is mainly bamboo forest. The 40 ticket is really not worth it. I was deceived by some Internet celebrities, or it may be a marketing method of the scenic spot.
Jinji Valley is not far from Pingle Ancient Town. It only costs 10 yuan to take a tricycle from the town. You can also take a Didi, but it is not recommended because it cannot be delivered inside. The ticket price is 40 yuan per ticket, and you can buy it on Dianping one day in advance for 36 yuan per ticket. After purchase, you can directly enter the scenic spot by checking the QR code. The entire scenic area is dominated by bamboo forest and stone slabs. It is more suitable for wandering in summer. It is cool and the air quality is good. It takes more than an hour to walk around. The main attractions are the high-altitude suspension bridge, a short section of glass plank road and artificial smoke in the valley. It is more suitable to visit Jinji Valley and then return to the riverside of Pingle Ancient Town to find a seat for tea. However, it is strongly not recommended to go there on holidays, because the scenic area is not large and the reception capacity is limited, and the suspension bridge is shaking a lot, which is slightly unfriendly to people with acrophobia.
I was helpless. I left Chengdu Shuangliu at 8:00 on May 1st and arrived at 11:00. The navigation said it would only take a little over an hour. Seeing the traffic jam, I parked in the parking lot and walked to the scenic spot for more than half an hour. As a result, I was told that there were no tickets. This was the worst experience. When I parked, I asked the staff inside.
I wanted to walk on the glass bridge during the May Day holiday in Jinji Valley, but there was no hope these days. The problem was that there were no tickets for sale. I was a little disappointed to have traveled so far from Chengdu. I was going to Pingle Ancient Town to play.
We first visited Pingle Ancient Town. The environment was very quiet and leisurely. Some facilities were under construction, so there were not many people. We only visited half of it and then took a tricycle to Jinji Valley. The fare was 5 yuan per person, and we bargained for 15 yuan for 4 people. (In fact, it could be negotiated to 10 yuan.) The ticket for Jinji Valley was 40 yuan per person (I personally feel it is not worth it). You need to buy a separate ticket for the rock climbing inside. The biggest highlight of Jinji Valley should be the suspension bridge! There will be glass plank roads and air sliding locks in the future, all of which are under construction. In general, you can still feel the excitement of the suspension bridge, but it is still a bit tiring to go up the mountain, because the suspension bridge is built between two mountains, so after entering the ticket gate, go straight up the mountain in the right direction. It takes about 30 minutes to reach the suspension bridge, and the other side of the suspension bridge is the way down the mountain.
The aerial suspension bridge was designed and built by the French. It is quite high.
It is still under development. There is only a long suspension bridge to visit. Then go to the Pingle Ancient Town and the Jinji Valley. You can play in the water in the ditch. Tickets are required now.
It doesn't feel good, except for the bamboo and the good air. There is nothing special about it. I finished the whole tour in one hour.
Jinji Valley is located in the upper reaches of Baimo River in Pingle Town, a 40-minute walk away. The valley is full of beautiful mountains and rivers, strange rocks, bamboos everywhere, cool air, gurgling streams, and simple rural customs. You can enter with an additional 20 yuan ticket. On both sides of the bottom of Jinji Valley, there are 5.4 kilometers and 2.8 kilometers of hiking trails respectively, as well as the country's first railway climbing and free climbing field and the country's first high-altitude narrow-bottom canyon tourist cable bridge.
Bamboo sea, suspension bridge, murals, rock climbing and wild fun make up today's Jinji Valley, which can be visited, played and viewed.
There is a tourist battery car to Jinji Valley in the ancient town. After waiting for a long time, there was no staff. The locals said that it was more affordable to take a three-wheeled car, and the car would pick us up and drop us off. Ha, I had no choice but to agree. The driver seemed to be familiar with the bumpy road and chatted with us enthusiastically. The local dialect made us a little confused, but we smiled in tacit understanding.
The development of Jinji Valley is not mature, but it has all the facilities, such as a natural oxygen bar for cleansing lungs. We set off early, and there were no more than 10 tourists in the valley, as if they had contracted the place.
Tickets: 30 yuan
Recommendation index: ★★★☆☆
I'm from the same place, and I came here for class.
It's still worth a visit, but we drove straight up the mountain! We didn't know the road, so we split into two teams, one walking down the mountain, and one driving down the mountain! Note: The road up the mountain for friends who drive is very narrow, and it's very troublesome to meet cars! It's best to drive the car to Huangzui and walk up the mountain!
The characteristics are the bamboo forest and the cable bridge on the top of the mountain. If the weather is good, it is still good for taking pictures. There are many outdoor rock climbing activities on the facade, but it feels more suitable for people who know a little bit of professionalism. It is best to bring slippers to play in the water in summer.
Jinji Valley, rock climbing, climbing, hiking, high-altitude plank roads, bamboo forests, and streams.
Jinji Valley is very close to Pingle Ancient Town. There are tricycles in the town that cost 5 yuan to get there. However, if you drive yourself, you must go early because there are few public parking lots in this area and they are not very formal. The road leading into the scenic area is also very narrow, and it is difficult to pass other cars.
Jinji Valley is actually a landscape developed from rural mountains and forests. At present, it still feels like a half-agriculture and half-scenery area. The scenic area is not very large, and it takes about 2 hours to go around. I remember the ticket price was 30 yuan. The biggest feature of the scenic area is the bamboo forest, which is a natural oxygen bar. The air is very fresh and comfortable. In addition, friends who like outdoor rock climbing must not miss this place. It is thrilling to travel between cliffs. The famous scenic spot Jinji Suspension Bridge. Connecting the canyons, walking on it, the scenery is charming~ Jinji Valley is very suitable for going outing in the wild and breathing fresh air during the weekend. If you have enough time, you can visit Pingle Ancient Town together.
Jinji Valley, there is rafting at the bottom of the mountain, rock climbing on the mountain, and the top of the mountain is the place to play your heartbeat, the cable bridge! Standing on the cable bridge and looking down, the vast sea of bamboo is also a beautiful sight. If you want to experience it, it is worth a visit!
There is nothing worth visiting, just climbing half a day on the mountain to see a suspension bridge, which cost 30 yuan.
This requires a ticket. There are many buses arriving in Pingle Ancient Town. The ticket seems to be 30 yuan per person. There are many bamboos inside, and you can also climb rocks. The highest place is the iron chain bridge, which is said to be designed by a foreigner. The scenery there is good. After that, you can go down from the other side of the bridge. There are ticket inspectors on the bridge. The road inside is not very good.
Well... the bamboo in the ditch is growing well... the suspension bridge is quite interesting... the rest is to climb the mountain (the road is not steep)
It was like hiking in a bamboo forest. We walked a long way. There was a very special rope bridge. Looking down, there were thick forests. The view was great.
The suspension bridge in Jinji Valley is very high, and it is nice to stand on it and look at the surrounding scenery! There are places for rock climbing and rafting nearby
During a physical education class, my favorite thing was taking photos on the high-altitude rope bridge with my friends. The ticket was 30, but we all had tour guide certificates, so it was free. Students can get half price.
The Jinji Valley Suspension Bridge is more than 300 meters long and 1.5 meters wide. It feels really good to walk on it, but those who are afraid of heights should consider it carefully.
The vast expanses of bamboo sea make people feel the magnificence of all the natural creatures in the world. Overlooking the surrounding scenery from the bridge, it is a pleasing sight to the eyes.
Personally, I don’t think there is anything fun to do in Jinji Valley. However, if you like rock climbing, that’s a different story.
This is a rock climbing outdoor sports camp near Pingle. In the off-season (April to October), no tickets are required before 8:30 in the morning, and in the peak season (May to September), no tickets are required before 7:30. You can get there by taking a three-wheeled vehicle for 8 yuan from the ancient town.
The scenery is so beautiful! The first half to the first viewing platform is a flat road, and then it is a continuous uphill climb. It is a steep slope at the cable bridge, so please pay attention to safety when climbing.
Unfortunately, due to the earthquake, I was unable to go to the bridge to take a look. It was this regret that gave me a reason to go to Pingle again.
To be honest, the most fun thing in Jinji Valley is rock climbing. It was closed due to the rain. Those who like adventure can go there on a sunny day. Many places are not developed. I went to see a suspension bridge, but I really felt that it was not worth the 30 yuan. It was not as fun as Lugou Bamboo Sea. (Be careful on the road to the suspension bridge. The iron rope guardrail next to it is very low. You must hold on to it. There is a cliff next to it.)
We went there the day before National Day, and I would recommend that netizens go on a non-holiday day when it will be quieter, with fewer people, and you can have a comfortable time. The air is great, and it's a great summer resort.
