Where can you pick strawberries in Mianyang?
You can go to Fangshui in Mianyang. Take a regular shuttle bus from Pingzheng Bus Station. The ride takes roughly over an hour, and the ticket fare is about 10 yuan, though I cannot remember the exact price clearly.
Strawberries are sold by weight. They are not cheap nowadays, but you can eat as many as you like while picking them on the farm.
If you drive, take the road to Jiangyou via Qingyi. Do you know the Qingyi Campus of Southwest University of Science and Technology? Head towards Jiuling from there and turn off before reaching Jiuling. The route is a bit tricky to describe in detail, so feel free to ask locals along the way. Strawberry farms can also be found in Jiuling.
Other options include the 9th Brigade of Fangshui in Jiangyou and the Songya area. For self-driving travelers: take the Mianjiang Road. After going uphill past Longmen, do not continue down the long slope; turn left instead. You will see many roadside stalls selling strawberries at that intersection on Mianjiang Road.
