Itinerary
Wolong Giant Panda Nature Reserve
24 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeWolong Bird-Watching Highlights Wolong (Wenchuan County, Sichuan) is a top bird-watching spot, with high-altitude habitats (forests, meadows, slopes) hosting rare species. It’s ideal for spotting Chinese Monal (national first-class, China-endemic, iridescent plumage) and Chestnut-throated Partridge (another rare first-class bird). Key second-class species include vibrant Golden Pheasant, red-spotted Blood Pheasant, and white-plumed White Eared-Pheasant. Vertical climate brings diverse birds: low-altitude Brown Accentors to >3,500m Tibetan Snowcocks. Best seasons: May-June (breeding plumage) and Sept-Oct (mild weather). Near Balang Mountain, it’s a birder’s must-visit. Keep distance to avoid disturbing birds.Balang Mountain
24 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeBalang Mountain is located in the Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province. It straddles Wenchuan, Xiaojin, and Baoxing counties, serving as a key mountain range between Wolong Nature Reserve and Siguniang Mountain Scenic Area. Key highlights: • Scenery: Famous for its "sea of clouds"—white clouds float halfway up the mountain, dividing it into alpine meadows (upper) and primeval forests (lower). Summer snow (July-August) is also a rare sight. • Ecology: Rich in biodiversity, with alpine flowers blooming (May-August) and new species like Gastrochilus balangshanensis (an orchid) discovered in 2024. • Transport: Accessible via the 8.8km Balang Mountain Tunnel (opened 2016, altitude ~3,850m). The branch road to the mountain pass is permanently closed (since 2023); hiking nearby is an option for views. • Culture: Its ancient trail was part of the Tea-Horse Road, a vital trade/military route since the Three Kingdoms period.
