Located in Hongya County on the edge of the Sichuan Basin, the Mount Wawu National Forest Park covers an area of 1.04 million mu and is 180 kilometers from Chengdu. Forming a tourism "golden triangle" together with Mount Emei and the giant Buddha of Mount Leshan, it includes the Mount Wawu Virgin Forest Adventure Area, the Yuping Man-made Forest Resort, and the Mount Bamian Historical Sites.

Azaleas are an attraction in spring, hanging waterfalls in summer, red leaves in autumn and snow -covered mountains in winter. Tourists may view the sunrise, the sea of clouds, the "sacred lantern" and the "holy light" all the year round from peaks in the park.

When you enter the Yuping Man-made Forest Holiday Resort, you will feel as if you have walked into a fairy land with a vast expanse of forest, waterfalls emptying into Haihui Pond and Mozi Ravine, small boats bobbing on Apricot Lake, and elegant wooden houses scattered all over like stars in the sky. There are regular buses from Hongya to Liujiang for theYuping Forest Holiday Resort, or from Liujiang to Binling and Jinhuajing at the foot of Mount Wawu. At the new southern gate of Chengdu a shuttle bus goes directly to Jinsan Bridge every Monday and Friday morning.
