Renting a Car for a Self-Drive Tour of Western Sichuan in Golden Autumn (1): Chengdu to Barkam, Taoping Qiang Village, and Bipenggou
In the golden autumn of 2019, I rented a car and took a self-drive tour of western Sichuan, following the route: Chengdu → Dujiangyan → Taoping Qiang Village (Li County) → Bipenggou (Li County) → Barkam → Xiaojin → Danba → Bamei → Xinduqiao → Litang → Daocheng → Yading → Daocheng → Litang → Xinduqiao → Zheduo Mountain → Kangding → Hailuogou → Luding → Chengdu. This is essentially the small western Sichuan loop plus Daocheng (Yading). I was accompanied only by my eldest son, X.J., who was responsible for driving and all arrangements and expenses for the trip, while I planned the driving route.
