The type of trip determines the search area

The regional contrast is crucial when choosing the accommodation area. The orientation leads on the one hand to Chengdu and cultural heritage areas, and on the other to mountain landscapes with Baima Tibetan culture in Pingwu and its surrounding mountain area. This comparison helps align the search with the desired type of trip without reducing Sichuan to a single base.

If urban experiences and cultural heritage are the focus, you can initially choose the right area in this direction. If landscapes and Baima Tibetan culture are the main focus, Pingwu and its surrounding mountain area are a clearly defined example. Only then search for accommodation as a holiday apartment, holiday home or hotel.
