There is very limited information in English on this location. The best I can gather is that it is in Sichuan, close to Gongga Mountain. And it's not featured in any travelchinaguides. I am very curious about making a trip there. So any information about how to get there, where to stay, what to do there, etc. Thanks!

Two ways:
No.1 Take bus at Chengdu New South Gate Bus Station (成都新南门汽车站) to Moxi Ancient Town (摩西古镇) and then hire a van to take you to Yanzi Gou.

Bus fare from Chengdu to Moxi Ancient Town: around CNY 119. Time: around 7 hours. It takes around CNY 40 to hire a van to take you to Yanzi Gou for one-way trip.

No.2 Take flight from Chengdu to Kangding (around 40 minutes) and then take airport shuttle bus to Moxi Ancient Town (about two hours). Then hire a van to Yanzi Gou.

Yanzi Gou admission fee: CNY 85. Sight-seeing bus: around CNY 80.

Just for your reference.
