Sichuan is really a place with too many beautiful scenery, it's hard to say enough about it.
Even if you have gone to Sichuan less than ten times, you still might miss many beautiful scenery, such as the following 4 hidden spots.
1. Mana Tea Gold
More suitable for viewing snow mountains and starry skies than Pi Baishan
When it comes to viewing snow mountain platforms, many hikers will think of 'Asia's No. 1 Viewing Platform' Meili Snow Mountain. However, Meili Snow Mountain is temporarily closed, but don't be too regretful, in the unknown Moli, there is a place called Mana Tea Gold which is even better for viewing snow mountains –
According to local Tibetan, here you can enjoy cloud seas, sunrise gold mountains, and sunset rainbow mountains all year round.
Compared to Meili Snow Mountain, Mana Tea Gold's viewing platform:
↓ Closer to the snow mountain, can see more peaks, also has more momentum;
↓ Higher altitude, sunrise and sunset's dawn is also more beautiful, with more variations;
△Three Gods Snow Mountain Sunrise Gold Mountain
↓ More remote location, far from the city, better climate, better starry sky;
In addition, Meili Snow Mountain is a mining area, it has little scenery, while Mana Tea Gold is a high-altitude pasture, in May and June, azaleas bloom all over the mountain, in autumn, gold and red are dazzling, in winter, it's like Northeast Snow Village.
PS: Regarding cloud seas, Meili Snow Mountain is more spectacular, each has its own beauty.

2. God's Village
People live together in a paradise on Earth
For many people, God's Village is still a relatively unfamiliar place.
But this small and obscure place in Sichuan, once defeated 'Finding China's Hidden Paradise' competition, including Jiuzhaigou, Kangbgye, Wuyuan, Qinghai Lake, and obtained 'Most Beautiful China Hidden Paradise' honor.
This place is full of fairy tales. It's said that it's far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, time passes by slowly; It's said that this place is simple and peaceful, no night; It's said that here the stream is full, the grass is full, and smoke rises from the mountains at sunset…
God's Village is so simple, you may need to live here for a while to really experience it. For hurried travelers, walking up and down the river in front of the village and behind the village, feeling the blue sky and green grass, and the quietness of the deep mountains and forests, is enough.

4. Mosca
Comparable to Rainy Gorge
In the hiking circle, Mosca is known as 'Sichuan's Rainy Gorge'. To go to Mosca Village, you need to go through a very bad road, while walking, while increasing the altitude, which is a test for hikers.
In addition to hiking, you can also hire a local car to go in. It is said that in 2014 and 2015, Mosca has cement roads, and small cars can go in and out.
The scenery along the way to Mosca is very good, if you are lucky, you can also see cute prairie dogs. Mosca Village has only over 100 households, the village is very quiet, but now there are several guesthouses for accommodation, so don't worry about accommodation too much.
