Absolutely worth visiting! The only thing to remember - it closes at 17:00. You can find a driver to go there from Songpan near the bus station. This place is full of great views and positive energy!

I travelled to the Wolong Giant Panda Research Centre by private car with a Chinese lady driver. It cost me about $200 Canadian and was well worth it. We visited both the Wolong Panda Centre and the Dujiangyan Panda Centre. I paid for my driver to accompany me inside the Centres and this proved to be wise as she used her phone to tell me details about the pandas and the parks. I had visited the Wolong Centre before the terrible earthquake of 2007. At that time the park was small and modest, but it had 16 one-year-old pandas!!! I was curious to see how much the park had changed. I was truly amazed by the development of large enclosures with lots of natural activities for the pandas to enjoy. The new Wolong Panda Centre nestled in the Wenqiao mountains is absolutely wonderful. At each enclosure, there are signs telling the visitor the names and ages of the pandas. If you can spare the time, Wolong is a must for the panda enthusiast.

I was in Ruoergai in August 2017, the best season of visiting prairie. We had a self-drive tour from Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture to Aba and Qiang Prefecture. It is well known as an Emerald inlays on the plateau of northwest Sichuan Province. The views were so extremely pure and peaceful. Mostly are glacier topped mountains, wetlands, blue sky with clouds, herds of sheep, cattle and birds. There are Tibetan villages with fluttering prayer flags, yurt with horses, winding rivers and lakes cross the grass. It is hard for me to leave, I strongly recommend this great area who wants to see wild scenery and look at the less visited part of China. It is definitely worth visiting.

I visited here as part of a 32-day solo holiday with China Private Tours. I visited Siguniang as an alternative when Jiuzhaigou was devastated by an earthquake. It’s a 5 hour drive from Chengdu. I was promised a snow peaked mountain and as we drove into the ranges all I could see were craggy rocky peaks but no snow. Being October, I was wondering where the snow was going to come from. I was getting more sceptical as we drove closer to the destination and then came the wow moment. Turning around an innocuous corner, suddenly before me was Siguniang itself, with snow! Very impressive. We stopped at the lookout for photos but I mention this as there are food stalls there and the chicken and potato skewers are delicious. The actual nature reserve is a way further and like many tourist attractions in China, this is a shuttle in and out. My guide took me to the end of the road first, the highest point, where people are warned about the thin air. This is as close as you get to the mountain but the views are beautiful. This park is well planned. At all the shuttle stops there are different views with the mountain as the backdrop – it’s quite clever really. It was also a lovely clear day when I was there (not a regular occurrence on my journeys), though it was raining when we left Chengdu. It ended as one of the best days of my time in China, even though the autumn colours didn’t happen for me. The park wasn’t crowded, walking was easy, it was so peaceful and the mountain lived up to the promise. One slight warning – though I didn’t have any thin air issues at the lookout, I did get a massive height-induced headache coming back down in the shuttle. It may not happen to everyone but be aware it’s possible. That night I stayed at a hotel in the local town which can’t be reviewed on Trip Advisor. Hotels here are not flash at all. The one I was in was built overhanging a cliff, which while it made the view from the room spectacular, considering this is an earthquake zone, I’m not sure of the wisdom of this construction style!
