Romantic 3-hour trip from Chengdu

3️⃣ hours from Chengdu, who knows the value of this romantic purple moment? The flower language of jacaranda: [Waiting for love in despair!] In two months, the jacaranda will be in full bloom. You can easily check in to the fairytale-like purple romance without leaving Sichuan. Flowering period: Mid-April to early May High-speed rail: Chengdu-Xichang, about 3 hours Bus: Xichang City will open a free bus line for jacaranda viewing from mid-April to May Day. Daily operation time: 9:30-21:30, starting point (Xichang West High-speed Railway Station) - end point (Xichang Wanda Plaza) Accommodation: It is recommended to stay at "Qionghai No. 17" opposite Wanda Plaza. There are many hotels and homestays to choose from, the location is convenient, and the terminal of the free flower viewing bus is here. Electric car: It is not recommended to rent an electric car to go to each check-in point, because the price is relatively expensive, generally 50-100 yuan/person/day, and the cost performance is not high. Xichang City is not big, and the cost of taking a taxi + walking is far less than that. The daily round-trip taxi fare is about 30-40 yuan. Check-in props: Liangshan Snow (must-have), straw hat, white dress, sun hat, sunglasses, parasol Play time: 8-10 am, 4-6 pm is the best, the ultraviolet rays are very strong at noon, and it is very hot outdoors, so it is recommended to rest in the hotel. Summary of jacaranda check-in points 1⃣️Aerospace North Road This street is of course the top stream of jacaranda check-in! The jacaranda trees are very large, and the street is not wide, so it is very suitable for taking pictures and checking in. But there are also a lot of tourists! However, drones cannot be flown on Aerospace North Road. 2⃣️Jianchang Road (Jianchang Pavilion Archway) The jacaranda on this street is also very good, very suitable for taking citywalk fresh photos. Since the archway has stairs to go up, this is the only place where you can take a bird's-eye view of the jacaranda street scene without a drone. It is very suitable for taking pictures of people, cars and flowers in the same frame. 3⃣️Entrepreneurship and Innovation Road The jacaranda on this street is also very lush, and it is very niche, and not many tourists know about it, and drones can be flown on this street, so the jacaranda street scene from a bird's-eye view is also the best! For example, the first picture! 4⃣️Wenhui East Road There are several large jacarandas at both ends of this street, and drones can also be flown. The street is narrow, and it is easy to capture empty and clean street scenes. 5⃣️Aerospace Avenue Section 3 (Bridge next to Holiday Inn Express) This point is very niche, the jacaranda next to the bridge is very good, and because the height of the bridge is just at the position of the flower, it is a very suitable point for taking portraits, and the afterglow of the sunset is just right here at 17:00-18:00 in the afternoon
