Shot on November 4! Jiuzhai Valley in autumn is like a fairyland, already a legend. || If I hadn't come here myself and seen this dreamlike scenery with my own eyes, I would have found it hard to believe that there is such a fascinating place in the world. Before coming to Jiuzhai Valley, I had only heard from others that it was a tourist destination that people longed for. However, when I actually set foot on this land, I deeply realized that the shock that hits the soul can only be felt by personal experience. At this moment, Jiuzhai Valley is at the peak of the colorful forest season. The trees all over the mountains seem to have been carefully colored by nature, the magical painter, and intertwined into a colorful and beautiful picture. Every leaf is like a bright gem, red like fire, yellow like gold, and green like jade. They complement each other and form this beautiful scenery, making people linger. 📍Jiuzhai Valley Scenic Area Here, I will share two ways to avoid the crowds: ✅Method 1: Timing is very important. You can choose to enter the park when it just opens and become one of the first visitors, so you can enjoy a relatively quiet atmosphere. Or choose to enter the park around 9 am, when you can usually cleverly avoid most of the tour groups and avoid the trouble of being crowded during the tour. ✅Method 2: Try the reverse tour strategy, which will give you a unique experience. The morning tour route is as follows: Take the sightseeing bus from the mouth of the valley, get off at the Nuorilang Center, transfer to other vehicles, and then start the wonderful tour. First, arrive at Rhino Lake, where the water is clear and reflects the colorful trees around, like a huge mirror, integrating the beauty of heaven and earth. Then come to Tiger Lake, the scenery of Tiger Lake is unique, and its unique charm will make you stop and appreciate it. Next is Spark Lake, where the sunlight shines on the lake, sparkling, like sparks jumping, lively and wonderful. Then go to Double Dragon Lake, which is named after two calcium carbonate dikes that resemble two dragons. Here you can feel the magic of nature. Then come to Bonsai Beach, where the trees are in various shapes, like natural bonsai, showing unique artistic charm. Finally, stroll to Reed Lake, where large reeds sway in the breeze, making a rustling sound, as if telling an ancient story. After visiting Reed Lake, walk back to Bonsai Beach and take a car back to Nuorilang. It should be noted that Jiuzhai Valley Scenic Area is very large, with many attractions, and one day is not enough to capture all the beautiful scenery. Therefore, it is recommended that you choose a few favorite attractions to visit according to your preferences. The attractions I chose this time are Five Flower Lake, Long Lake, Five Color Pool, Double Dragon Lake, and Reed Lake. These places are all unique and left a deep impression on me.

Western Sichuan Trip｜Huanglong is beautiful, Jiuzhaigou is even more beautiful! 🥰😍|| Personally, I feel ❗️❗️ Jiuzhaigou is very beautiful, and Huanglong is not bad either. I saw many people say Huanglong is not as beautiful as Jiuzhaigou, but after going there, I realized there wasn't enough time to appreciate it! 🚗 About the itinerary ❗️ We spent three days and two nights visiting Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong. 🕑 24th 🚄 From Chengdu to Zhenjiangguan 🚌 Then take a direct bus from Zhenjiangguan to Jiuzhaigou (book the direct bus on Ctrip, ⚠️ the bus to Jiuzhaigou is harder to get than the one to Siguniang Mountain, so if you get carsick, take some motion sickness medicine) 🏠 As for accommodation, I think they are all similar, just make sure to stay near the entrance of the valley, close to the scenic area. 🕐 25th Touring Jiuzhaigou: There are three valleys, and personally, I think the primitive forest and the valley over there are more beautiful, but a friendly reminder ❗️ you can't finish touring it all, just visit the valleys you want to see, the scenery is pretty similar (⚠️ make sure to arrive half an hour before the park opens, we arrived twenty minutes early and there was already a long queue at the entrance) 🌡️👔 It's cold in the morning and evening, and very hot at noon and in the afternoon, so I just brought a jacket to wear. 🍜 The food in the scenic area is all at the Nuorilang Center, I personally think it's a bit expensive and not very tasty. 🕑 26th 🚗 We bought a direct bus from Jiuzhaigou ➡️ Huanglong ➡️ Zhenjiangguan High-Speed Rail Station on Ctrip. Touring Huanglong time (10:00—14:00), gather at two o'clock to go to the high-speed rail station. 🎫 Remember to buy a sightseeing bus ticket for Huanglong, otherwise, you have to walk up the road to the Five-Color Pond. 👔 Make sure to bring a very thick jacket, Huanglong's altitude is higher than Jiuzhaigou, so it's colder than Jiuzhaigou. If it's cloudy 🌥️ or rainy ☔️, it's especially cold. We checked the weather and it showed sunny, but it was actually cloudy and rainy, so we had to buy thick cloaks at the scenic area entrance for 💰 200 yuan (not worth it at all). 🥰🥰 Compared to Jiuzhaigou, I actually prefer Huanglong, but for photos, Huanglong doesn't produce as good results as Jiuzhaigou ❗️ Jiuzhaigou Food 🍜 Hotpot 🍲: 🍅 Tomato Yak Soup Pot, very delicious, the meat is really a lot and in big chunks, very affordable, about 💰 80 per person. Tibetan Cuisine: Himalaya Music Tibetan Cuisine Bar, delicious but a bit expensive, about 💰 100 per person, if you buy a group deal, it might be cheaper.

One must not miss the 'Huanglong Colorful Ponds' in this lifetime, a place hailed as the 'Celestial Pool on Earth'. The water here is crystal clear and refreshing, with a scenery that is unparalleled in the world. Promise me, in this life, you must take your loved one there at least once, to experience the harmony between nature and the soul! Huanglong Scenic and Historic Interest Area is located in Songpan County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, China. It is a well-preserved plateau wetland situated on a ridge that rises gradually from south to north, covering an area of 700 square kilometers. It is 100 kilometers away from Jiuzhaigou, with an altitude ranging from 1700 to 5588 meters. The core area is dotted with more than three thousand colorful ponds, among which the Colorful Ponds are the essence of Huanglong. In the distance, the snow-capped mountains are majestic and magnificent, surrounded by green hills and continuous peaks. The calcified colorful ponds are like a palette filled with colorful paints, with shades of sea blue, light green, deep yellow, pink... They are stunningly beautiful and vibrant, like gems embedded in the valley. The water reflects the sunlight, presenting different colors, making one feel as if they are in a multicolored dreamland.

⛱️Tour: There are too many beautiful spots in Jiuzhaigou, either you take a quick look and check in, or you go in and play for two days, or you painfully give up a few unimportant spots! Otherwise, you will miss the key views like us! 🕘9 o'clock: Depart from the hotel and walk for about ten minutes to the main gate of Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area. 🕤9.40: Take the bus to Changhai and Wuhuachi. Jiuzhaigou is in the shape of a Y (P8), and the bus will randomly pull to one side of the Y. 🕧11.40: We didn't go to the transfer station for lunch, we went directly to the other end of the Y by car. At this time! If UU only has one day to play, you can get off the bus when you get to Wuhua Sea! Then look down all the way to see Pearl Beach, Mirror Sea, Nuorilang Waterfall, Shuzheng Waterfall, etc. We followed the principle of 'since we are here', got off the bus at Jianzhu Sea, and it was already past four o'clock when we played to Mirror Sea. 🕔5 o'clock: Take the bus to Reed Sea. I was attracted by the Reed Sea when I entered the scenic area, and I said that I must go and see before the sun goes down. But there is no stop at the Reed Sea, you need to walk about 45 minutes after getting off at Huohai Sea. So we gave up the Shuzheng Waterfall and Shuzheng Group Sea, which are said to be the most interesting in Jiuzhaigou, and rushed to Reed Sea. 🕕6 o'clock: When we arrived at Reed Sea, the sun was gone. Although it is not as lively as when the sun shines on the sea when entering the scenic area, there are not many tourists 'grabbing the scenery' at this time. 🕖7 o'clock: Leave the scenic area. I have been to Jiuzhaigou once before, knowing that it is very beautiful and can play all day. But I didn't expect that I didn't have enough fun from getting up at 7 o'clock to returning to the hotel at 9 o'clock, but my calves were sore for several days after walking all day. 🏠Accommodation: There are many hotels near the Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area, with off-season prices around 200. There is also accommodation in the scenic area, so you can play inside for two days.

Jiuzhaigou in autumn is breathtakingly beautiful, and I can't wait to highly recommend it to everyone! There are golden forests, transparent blue lakes, towering snow-capped mountains, spectacular waterfalls, swaying reeds, etc. The scenery is picturesque and incredibly beautiful. Jiuzhaigou is very large and it is impossible to visit all the attractions in one day, so I have selected a few that I personally like. 📸 And places with excellent photo effects: Wuhua Lake, Changhai Lake, Wucai Pool, Shuanglong Lake, Reed Sea, etc. Each place is an excellent location for taking pictures and is beautiful. Although there are many tourists in the scenic area, the beauty here is real, and even the casually taken photos can show its extraordinary charm. I believe this trip will definitely make you feel worthwhile! 📍Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area

Finally, I embarked on a journey to Jiuzhai Valley to see the peach blossoms, and now I can't wait to share this beauty with everyone 😎. When I arrived at Jiuzhai Valley, it felt like stepping into a paradise. Along the way, the peach blossoms covering the mountains were like pink clouds, gently falling in the mountains from afar, so beautiful that I couldn't take my eyes off them 😍. Walking into the scenic area, along the boardwalk, the babbling stream sang beside me, and the peach blossoms by the stream were blooming lively. Some peach blossoms were still in bud, like shy little girls, with a touch of pink, quietly hiding their beauty; some were already in full bloom, with petals stretching out, gently swaying in the breeze, as if warmly greeting every passing tourist 🤗. Occasionally, a few pink petals fell on the water surface, swirling with the current, like a lively spring painting, intoxicating. Near Long Lake, the peach blossoms and the azure lake complemented each other, the deep blue and the soft pink intertwined, forming a unique and harmonious beauty. Standing there, looking at the scenery in front of me, I felt my soul being gently caressed by the magical hand of nature, and all my worries were thrown to the clouds 🧘‍♀️. At the Five-Color Pond, the peach blossoms by the pond seemed to have added a pink lace to the colorful pond. The sunlight shone down, making the water in the pond even more colorful, and the peach blossoms were also coated with a layer of golden halo, truly like a fairyland. I kept pressing the shutter, wanting to capture every moment of beauty 📷. During the peach blossom viewing, I also met many friends who love traveling. We shared the food we brought under the peach trees, talked about our love for this beautiful scenery, and the laughter echoed in the mountains, adding warmth and joy to this journey 🥰. Here are some travel tips for everyone 👇. For tickets, you can book in advance on official platforms or through regular channels like Trip.com, which can save you the trouble of queuing on-site and save a lot of time ⏰. As for accommodation, choosing a homestay or hotel near the scenic area is a good choice, convenient for travel, and you can sleep with the mountain breeze and the fragrance of peach blossoms at night, very pleasant 😴. For dining, be sure to try the local specialties, such as yak meat and barley cakes, to satisfy your taste buds while enjoying the peach blossoms 😋. The peach blossoms in Jiuzhai Valley are truly the most romantic existence in spring 🌸. They are like a precious gift from nature, allowing us to find a place to indulge and enjoy beauty in this bustling world. If you also yearn for such spring scenery, don't miss the peach blossom season in Jiuzhai Valley. I believe you will fall in love with this place, just like me, deeply impressed by it 💕.

Get off the bus at Bonsai Lake to check in, and then take the bus directly out of the scenic area. Personal feeling: The scenery in late winter is indeed discounted (except for the super beautiful Panda Lake). Look at the early and late winter photos posted by others (especially after the snow), it will be particularly beautiful, and the late summer and early autumn are also more beautiful!

Huanglong Scenic Area is indeed beautiful, but it's very cold and windy. Most of the pools are frozen, so you can't see their original beauty. The best part is that there are fewer people during the off-season, so it's easier to take photos. I plan to come back in the summer. Clothing suggestions: 1. Down jacket: Be sure to wear a thick down jacket, preferably with a hood, to keep warm. 2. Waterproof and snowproof boots: The ground is slippery and snowy, so a pair of waterproof and non-slip boots will allow you to walk freely in the scenic area. 3. Hat and sunglasses: A hat can protect your head from the cold wind, and sunglasses can prevent the sunlight reflected from the snow from hurting your eyes. Photography suggestions: The colorful pools in the snow have a unique charm, so take more photos to remember the moment. Try interacting with the snow, such as reaching out to catch snowflakes or jumping in the snow, to capture dynamic photos. I recommend visiting Huanglong in the summer. Huanglong is at a high altitude, and the rhododendrons bloom in June and July. The dry season is long, and if the water freezes, the downstream water flow will be very small. So if you want to see the pools downstream with water, you need to wait for the snow on the mountain top to melt. Therefore, summer is the best time to enjoy the scenery of Huanglong. Huanglong has a good natural environment, and you can see many small animals along the way, such as various birds, tits, weasels, and squirrels, which are very cute. Recommended attractions in the scenic area: Jiuzhaigou: Long Lake, Five-Color Pond, Nuorilang Waterfall, Panda Lake and Waterfall, Wuhua Lake, Pearl Shoal and Waterfall, Shuzheng Waterfall, Shuzheng Lakes, Spark Lake, Bonsai Shoal Huanglong: Five-Color Pond, Huanglong Waterfall, Huanglong Temple

You can get off the bus at the Bonsai Sea first, visit the Reed Sea and return to the Bonsai Sea (a ten-minute walk) before continuing up the mountain.

You can go earlier. When I returned to the hotel at five o'clock in the afternoon, the housekeeper had already filled the bathtub with water, which instantly relieved the fatigue of 1.5w steps. In the evening, I ate hot pot in the hotel and watched the stars, ending a perfect day [Happy] Jiuzhaigou Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture
