Jiuzhaigou Travel Guide | Essential Attractions Recommendations, Just Read This and You're Set
🎫Tickets:
Available for purchase online, the price is 280, which includes a 90 yuan sightseeing bus fee
🏞Attractions:
The Jiuzhaigou scenic area is very large, distributed in a Y-shape, with three diverging valleys being Rize Valley, Zechawa Valley, and Shuzheng Valley. To fully explore the entire scenic area, including taking photos, it should take about 10 hours. (The route map is on the last page)
Upon entering the park, take the sightseeing bus directly. The bus will distribute visitors evenly according to the day's visitor flow, randomly taking tourists to the uppermost parts of Rize Valley, Shuzheng Valley, and Zechawa Valley. The central transfer point of the entire scenic area is the Nuorilang Transfer Station, located at the very center of the three valleys. At this transfer point, you can switch buses to reach any of the valleys.
On the day of our visit, we first reached the Primeval Forest Station at the top of Rize Valley, then played our way down to the Nuorilang Transfer Station, went to the highest point of Zechawa Valley on the left - Long Lake, then to the Five-Color Pond, and back to Nuorilang. Finally, we played our way down Shuzheng Valley and exited the scenic area.
💙Essential Attractions Recommendations:
The scenic area is too large, and some of the lakes look similar to each other. Personally, I don't think it's necessary to visit every single attraction. Here are the spots I think are worth seeing.
🌟Rize Valley: Arrow Bamboo Lake➕Panda Lake➕Five Flower Lake.
We went to the Primeval Forest and felt it was not very distinctive, so we continued downwards. The most recommended is to walk from Arrow Bamboo Lake to Panda Lake, make sure to walk on the inside plank road, accompanied by the clear stream all the way, it's too comfortable! Panda Lake is really blue and serene! It's great for taking photos📷.
Five Flower Lake indeed looks like it has several different shades of blue and green, different from the other purely blue lakes.
🌟Zechawa Valley: Long Lake➕Five-Color Pond
Long Lake is the highest in altitude, and it's cooler on the mountain, giving a feeling of the ocean.
The Five-Color Pond is the most dreamy blue, clear and transparent, it doesn't seem like it really exists.
Shuzheng Valley: By the time we came down, it was already a bit late, so we just glanced at it from the sightseeing bus. It's recommended to sit on the driver's side when going up the mountain, and on the other side (the right-hand side) when coming down. This way, you can enjoy the scenery along the way twice from the bus, both when going up and coming down.
🎒Equipment to Carry:
ID card, sunglasses, sun umbrella, sunscreen spray, photography equipment, and lunch food
Wearing sunglasses makes it easy to take good photos, no need to manage expressions. Also, it's too hot in the scenic area, so be sure to protect yourself from the sun. It's said that the mountain weather is changeable, and it might rain, but I didn't encounter it
The food in the scenic area is 15 yuan for a bowl of instant noodles, 30 yuan for a self-heating pot, 5 yuan for a bottle of mineral water, and 10 yuan for a grilled sausage. You can decide whether to bring your own food or buy a simple meal in the scenic area
The famous Jiuzhaigou! I'm here this time! Start with the old father! Personal feeling is so-so! Or either I go in May is not the time! Mainly to see the water in the ditch! VIP package is very useful! Every attraction stops to give you time to see the water! Not very tired!
Sichuan Jiuzhaigou...This piece of heaven in Sichuan is definitely not a place to be missed... Love it!❤️❤️❤️
Jiuzhaigou, the name can be reminiscent of the beauty of a fairyland. This is a masterpiece of nature, a pure land on earth. I personally explored every corner of Jiuzhaigou, and today I will reveal the ten beautiful scenery of Jiuzhaigou in my heart for everyone! 🎉 Nuojilang Waterfall: The drop is more than 30 meters, which is the widest waterfall in China. Standing on the observation deck, the water mist comes on your face, which is shocking! 💦 Wuhua Sea: The lake is blue, reflecting the sky and surrounding mountains, as if you are in a fairy tale world. ✨
As a Sichuanese, I wanted to come very early, but I always felt that I could come at any time and delay it. Finally, in September 2023, I came to a trip that said to go. It was very convenient to drive by car. In order not to hurry from Chengdu to stay at Songpan, I came to Jiuzhaigou the next day. I entered the ditch at about ten o'clock in the morning. I didn't have enough time for one day. I visited half of the attractions and continued the next day. It is recommended to use two days. My favorite is the sea of flowers and colorful pools. Other attractions are also amazing. It is really the ceiling of domestic attractions. The visitor center in the ditch can eat box lunch, the price is not expensive, and the villagers can also eat. The language cannot describe the beauty of Jiuzhaigou. You must be in the scene to know his beauty. You must list the attractions that you must go to for this life.
Jiuzhaigou is renowned for its scenic and aesthetic majesty. I'm told it's worth seeing in every season for different reasons, but we went during winter. Winter is so called its off-season. It is just like a fairyland on earth, so beautiful that you'll doubt your eyes! Fewer people, more beautiful scenery, no need to queue for photos, and there are super value off-season ticket discounts, making it extremely cost-effective
jiuzhaigou is the place to be if love for nature is what you are looking. Take a high speed train from chengdu to Huanglong (if it's ready) The distance will be shorter compared to Zhenjiangguan station. We spent 2days at Jiuzhaigou National Park. No other vehicles are allowed into the park except the electric buses which will pickup passengers at the gate. The bus will drive up to the highest level of the national parks and passengers can get down and walk down to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the mountains.
The scenery is superb, the scenery is beautiful, and the public toilets in the scenic area are very clean, the scenic area is also very clean, the hand washing water is warm, the staff's service attitude is also very good, it feels special warmth and intimate, super super super love
All-round praise! Scenic facilities and transportation services are the best quality I have been to so many places. The landscape of Jiuzhaigou is even more infinite, quite shocking, this beautiful scenery is beyond prevention, the world is beautiful, the water wonderland is simply!
