Hidden experiences in Huanglong! 90% of people miss these viewing spots + photo schedule

📍China · Huanglong

The Five-Color Pool after the rain looks like a washed gemstone💎 Keep this detailed camera position guide handy!

​📌 Best viewing postures for key attractions​

🔹 Five-Color Pool: First climb to the top viewing platform for a panoramic view → walk counterclockwise to the front of the pool for close-up shots of the color layers → finish shooting before noon!

🔹 Zhenyan Pool: Descend to the viewing platform and shoot downward, zoom out to include the mountain mist; the green pool + distant peaks create an ink painting effect～

🔹 Golden Sand Spread: In the afternoon when sunlight hits, the calcified beach glows golden; shooting the panorama from the side slope makes it look even more magnificent!

​⚠️ Key tips to avoid pitfalls​

1️⃣ Sightseeing bus tickets are hard to get! No ticket means wasted energy, so follow official accounts early to grab them!

2️⃣ At the Xianqiao fork, choose the right path! The left is purely downhill with no scenery, the right passes by Bonsai Pool, Lotus Terrace Waterfall, and other lesser-known colorful pools—fewer people and beautiful views～

3️⃣ Friendly for hikers: The downhill path is gentle, interspersed with colorful pools, forests, and snow mountain views, so it’s not tiring at all!

​🌤️ Altitude sickness test​:

At 3,900 meters with rich vegetation, no one in the group had severe altitude sickness, oxygen tanks were unused the whole time～ Recommend staying calm and slowing your pace appropriately!
