Distance: It is more than 200 kilometers from Chengdu to Marcand and Hongyuan. At present, the Zhegu Mountain Tunnel has been opened. It takes 6.5 ~ 7.5 hours for Chengdu to directly reach Marcand and Hongyuan respectively. The biggest difference is that it is diverted at Brush Temple, heading for Marcand and heading for Hongyuan.
Attractions complement each other: There are many cultural attractions in Marcand, and the shooting of Dust Settled is also there. The scenery in Hongyuan is beautiful, and July is the most beautiful time to go to Hongyuan (Wache Yellow River Fish is recommended, which is the best ecological food).
Time: the two can be played back and forth and can be highly coordinated. You can go to Marcand alone for 3-4 days and take Hongyuan to play together. Four days is enough. The road distance between them is about 70 kilometers, which is completely two places to play together. Why do we have to choose only one of them?
