This is a recommendation for people who would like to experience both the "cold" and "warm" in winter, explore a prosperous city and incredible nature.

On the next day, hike on an ancient glacier at the foot of the highest mountain in Sichuan and soak in a hot spring in a snow world. This 5-day Chengdu and Hailuogou tour will satisfy all your desires for a memorable winter trip.
