An In-depth Exploration of Western Sichuan
How much do you know about Sichuan province? The lovely giant pandas and incredible Sichuan food are not the only things this place has to offer. Sichuan also has an incredible national highway that connects the middle part of the country to Tibet. In China, it is known as the most beautiful highway and is considered a bucket list drive.
When starting from Chengdu and journeying west, you will feast your eyes on the beautiful landscape, experience the culture blend between Tibet and Han Chinese, and discover China's best-kept secret where explorer Joseph Rock wanted to visit again and again.
