Jiuzhai Valley travel tips.

Jiuzhai Valley travel tips.

Some subjective suggestions for those planning to visit soon I arrived in Jiuzhai Valley on the 19th and checked in, then entered the scenic area on the 20th and 21st 10/20: Cloudy in the morning, sunny in the afternoon 10/21: Sunny in the morning, rain started at 1 pm Jiuzhai Valley is a weather-dependent scenic area The weather forecast before departure was rain on the 20th and 21st In fact, it only rained for a while on the afternoon of the 21st The weather was very good the rest of the time So keep a positive attitude Jiuzhai Valley is beautiful in all seasons Enjoy it 👔 Top: Quick-dry short-sleeve top + fleece jacket + windbreaker Pants: Quick-dry shorts + summer hiking pants Shoes: Thick socks + two pairs of Salomon shoes This outfit should be suitable until it snows The sun is strong in Jiuzhai Valley, so it can be hot on sunny days But it can be a bit cool in the shade, so this is for reference I felt very comfortable PS: Those taking the high-speed train, note that the station is much colder than Jiuzhai Valley! Itinerary I planned a two-day itinerary I wanted to take my time at each spot But I ran out of time and missed three or four spots (Definitely need a second visit) If time, weather, and energy allow, three days is best You can explore all of Jiuzhai Valley The core attraction is the 70+ km scenic boardwalk See the last picture I entered the valley at 8:30 on the first day and 10:00 on the second day. I walked non-stop except for meals, covering over 30 km in two days Some views are only visible from the boardwalk, and it may close in bad weather, so choose based on your own conditions I highly recommend going up to the primeval forest and walking down This boardwalk is amazing If you only have one day, plan ahead and decide which spots to visit Even if you rush, you can't see everything in one day (Avoid getting on at the central station, it wastes time and is crowded) 🍜 Have breakfast at the hotel before heading out Prices in the scenic area are reasonable, with restaurants and food streets, so travel light Opinions on Jiuzhai Valley vary, often compared to other places. To me, it's simply beautiful. Its beauty can't be captured by a camera. I'll definitely visit again. I hope you like Jiuzhai Valley too, and that this content helps you.

Breathtaking Fairyland of China 🇨🇳

#wecreate We've been all around and so far Jiuzhai Valley is one of the best places I have ever visited and seen. The water is serene with majestic mountains that surround the lakes. Whereever you are in China, I suggest that this must be and should be in your list to visit before you leave this country. This place is such a feast in the eyes. So go and experience it yourself. HOW TO GET HERE: 1. Take a long distance bus from Xinnamen Bus Station in Chengdu. It will take you around 8-10 hours travel time and if it is during holiday time then prepare for longer hours on the bus. 2. Take the plane. It will only take you approximately an hour to reach Jiuzhai Huanglong Aiport. Note‼️ 1. If you're weak in dealing with altitude then I suggest you prepare yourself by taking some altitude sickness a week before you explore this fairyland. You have to be in your best health to totally enjoy everything. 2. It is cold there and misty so bring a raincoat and wear comfortable shoes and clothes. #jiuzhaivalley #mytripvlog #tripblazers #nationalpark #explorechina #sichuan

Chengdu, Jiuzhaigou, take shelter from the storm! Take shelter!!

Chengdu, Jiuzhaigou, take shelter from the storm! Take shelter!!

Chengdu, Jiuzhaigou, take shelter from the storm! Take shelter!! Clickbait, random thoughts on Chengdu and Jiuzhaigou, with itinerary and hotel recommendations at the end! Total cost 4000 yuan A child from the plains visiting the plateau for the first time, Jiuzhaigou is really too beautiful~ Any random shot can be used as wallpaper, any filter would be disrespectful to it! Must go again once the high-speed rail is connected From Wuxi to Chengdu Tianfu, actually Tianfu Airport is not as demonized as said online, took the subway Line 18 at 5 pm, arrived at the hotel near Hongxingqiao Subway Station at 6 pm! Great location🉑, right out of the subway station, recommended for budget travelers! Chengdu citywalk is very convenient by subway~ Sanxingdui Museum: Take the high-speed train to Guanghan Station, a 15-minute taxi ride for 20 yuan (seems to be a fixed price) takes about 3 hours to tour, remember to buy tickets in advance for holidays!!!!!! Chengdu Giant Panda Base: Wanted to see the pandas, two hours was too rushed, just followed the crowd to see other pandas, caught a little one sleeping on the job Jiuzhaigou: Took the 10:30 am high-speed train to Zhenjiang Pass, booked a direct bus on Ctrip, arrived at Jiuzhaigou around 4 pm, took a taxi to the hotel (be sure to ask the price in advance, starting price of 15 for 1 kilometer), the hotel is located at the mouth of the valley, within walking distance, there's a McDonald's, Book also, the popular Tomato Yak Pot restaurant is nearby within walking distance, many people recommended it, no queue if you arrive early, but it's not particularly delicious (compared to the restaurant on the second day it's considered good) The next morning, went straight into the scenic area, there are buses inside, followed the route to visit, there are stops to take the bus, walked about 13 kilometers in total, must wear comfortable shoes!! The scenic area has everything it should have (here I want to complain about the Kudi, one cup sold for 35, I have never seen such expensive Kudi, I understand it's expensive in the scenic area~ but this is a bit too much, the neighboring Xuewang is only 1 yuan more expensive hahaha, long live Xuewang! Luckin Coffee is under renovation inside the scenic area, waiting for it to open and outcompete Kudi) For dinner, Himalayan Music Tibetan Restaurant, really avoid this place! Ordered stir-fried wild vegetables, got a pot of stir-fried lettuce leaves... counts as wild vegetables??? On the third day, the return trip was still a direct bus from Ctrip, high-speed train from Zhenjiang Pass to Chengdu East, direct high-speed train from Chengdu East to Tianfu Airport, Chengdu East Station has transfer instructions, follow them for 5 minutes to the next train's ticket gate, Tianfu Airport exit is a 5-minute walk, directly to self-service check-in and baggage drop, go upstairs for security check, very fast! The whole process can be done in 20 minutes!

Winter beaty of Juizhaigou❄️😍❄️

It was the best and the most beautiful Park I've ever seen 😍 Some people would say, that it's not good going there in winter, but I think it's the best time to go! There are less people and the scenery with snowy mountains and party frozen lakes are just unbelievable! It's easy to go around, cause from one spot to another you can always use a hop on bus, so you won't get so tired. Also in the middle on the trail, you can have some rest and eat, or even buy some souvenirs you need around 5h to explore all of the places but honestly you don't need to see every spot, some of the places you can see just through the window 😁 We came to park at 10:00 and left around 16:00 The Park shape is like letter "Y" so first you take a bus to the end of right side, and walk down (or use bus) till the middle then take a bus to the end of left side and do the same Overall it was amazing experience, the best scenery I've seen in my life! #winterwonderland #mountains #china
