Joan's Guesthouse

Sichuan


Run by the friendly Yang family, this slightly rundown guesthouse overlooking a forested valley (and with a terrace to enjoy the view from) is the best reliably low-cost option near the west gate. The owner speaks English and is quite used to helping organise excursions around the forest for foreigners who would otherwise be lost and confused.

Call to arrange for pick-up from the bus station or gates.
