This year's Chinese New Year I especially wanted to go out, saw many destinations, and finally made a plan to go to Jiuzhaigou. Because it is difficult to buy all kinds of tickets during the Spring Festival, so the first day of ticket release began to grab tickets, according to the ticket time, the following plans were determined:

on the first day, Xi'an to Chengdu, bullet train, 4 hours, and stay near Chengdu New South Gate Station at night;

The next day, Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou, Chengdu New South Gate Station to Jiuzhaigou Passenger Transport Center (scenic spot), 8 hours, stay at Jiuzhaigou Hotel at night;

On the third and fourth days, visit Jiuzhaigou;

On the fifth day, Jiuzhaigou Passenger Transport Center (scenic spot) to Chengdu City, 8 hours.

If you have enough money, you can choose a flight from Chengdu to Huanglong, but you still have to rent a car and then transfer to Jiuzhaigou; In addition, there is a high-speed rail from Chengdu to Zhenjiang Pass, which takes about 1 and a half hours, but it takes 3 hours (no traffic jam) by bus to get to Jiuzhaigou.

People

like me who have a lot of luggage and are lazy choose the simplest point-to-point scenic spot direct bus.

Tell me how I feel about Jiuzhaigou!

1. Road situation

I went to Jiuzhaigou before the earthquake, and the road at that time was not as good as it is now, and the current road grade is higher, the road is wider, and it is easier to walk, and the driver himself said that he was more worry-free and labor-saving than before. And now the road passes through many scenic spots, if you are driving, you can play while walking. The driver will stop three times for everyone to rest, go to the toilet, and visit the supermarket, where things are very expensive. It is recommended to buy as needed, it is recommended to buy more fruits, the fruits here are delicious, especially rake oranges, very sweet.

2. Ticket discounts

I originally thought that the Chinese New Year was the off-season in Jiuzhaigou, but when I arrived at the scenic spot, I found that there were really a lot of people!! It may be because Jiuzhaigou did an activity this year, and two people traveling together are free of charge, but the bus ticket in the scenic spot is inevitable, and it is an off-season fare, which means that two people only need 240 yuan. In addition, it is said on the Internet that there are tickets for the second ditch, but the actual situation is none! But fortunately, if you buy tickets on the official account of Aba Tourism Network and pay online, each ticket will be reduced by 40 yuan.

I went alone and played for two days, so the ticket for two days was 240 yuan (120+120), which is almost the same as the second ditch!

I don't know when this offer will last, it's really great!! This is the Cultural and Tourism Bureau that has figured it out! Kudos to you!!

It is precisely like this, according to the service staff of the scenic spot, they have never seen so many people come during the Chinese New Year that year, and the scenic spot is almost limited!

3. Accommodation recommendations

There are many accommodations in Jiuzhaigou, there are homestays and hotels, I recommend that you choose hotels. I chose to stay at the Lotus Leaf Hotel at the entrance of the scenic spot, 3 minutes walk to the ticket gate, the hotel is floor heating, this is too friendly for people to play in winter, and the decoration in the hotel is very exquisite, the room is very clean, and the facilities are complete! The hotel has its own restaurant, breakfast is free, dinner is at your own expense, but the price is reasonable and the dishes are large!

Fourth, the less crowded route

It is recommended that you must choose to play for two days if you have time, because Jiuzhaigou is too big, and the door opens at 8:30 every day. At 3 p.m., the bus in the scenic spot only sends people out, not in.

Many friends have written about the situation in the scenic spot, so I don't need to say more, I'll just talk about how I play!

Because I am from Xi'an, I have a problem, I have to wear Hanfu everywhere, hahaha, look at the weather forecast, the first day is sunny, and the next day it rains. Therefore, on the first day, he decisively wore Hanfu into the scenic spot to take a selfie.

There are many ticket gates at the gate of the scenic spot, and the scenic spot will be automatically diverted as soon as there are more people, so the moment you queue up will determine your itinerary today! I lined up in the leftmost line, and after entering, the bus pulled to Shuzhenggou (Shuzheng Qunhai Station), and after getting off, the scenic spot staff asked everyone to go up, walk to the Rhino Sea and then change to the bus to Changhai or the primeval forest. I decisively turned around and walked back, haha, there was no one along the way!!

So I took pictures while walking, and I didn't take a car all the way, so I walked to Bonsai Beach, and the scenic spot where I got on the car at Bonsai Beach was 4 kilometers down. I walked from 10 am to 4 pm, with a half-hour break in between to eat something.

The scenery along the way is quite good, especially the sea of sparks, the color of that water cannot be compared! So beautiful! The reed sea must be taken for a walk, at 4 p.m., it is the setting sun here, and the sun shines on the reeds, which is beautiful! At this time, taking portraits is simply amazing! I was tired after walking 4 kilometers, and I left the scenic spot at 5 pm, but fortunately I arrived at the hotel in 3 minutes!

The next day, cloudy. I chose the line on the far right, and sure enough, I was pulled to the Arrow Bamboo Sea when I entered, because the primeval forest was closed and managed in winter. But along the way, I found that there were a lot of people in the Arrow Bamboo Sea and the Panda Sea, so I asked the driver to pull me up and get off at Wuhuahai when I went back. Because of the bad weather, the view of the Five Flowers Sea looks very bland. There are a lot of national costumes here, but you have to see if you have enough time!

Because the weather was bad today, I didn't hike, and this is the original station to get on and off, so I went to Jinghai when I came down. However, it is not as beautiful as before the earthquake, and there are many anti-slide piles and retaining walls on the surrounding mountains, which is a bit discordant. Many of the wooden plank roads that used to be able to walk on the side of the mountain have also collapsed and been damaged, but now the side of the mountain is no longer allowed to go, and the wooden plank roads are newly repaired after the earthquake!

The

buses going down the mountain only run to the Norilang Visitor Center, and then transfer! The visitor center is crowded and things are very expensive, so it is recommended to bring some food to save money and time!

Because the long sea in winter is frozen, and the colorful pond is getting smaller and smaller year by year, so I gave up over there, I directly transferred to Rhino Sea Station, waited for the sun here for a while, and the scenery was super beautiful as soon as the sun came out!

Because there was still time (exactly 12 o'clock), I chose to walk from the Rhino Sea to the Spark Sea (2.5 kilometers) and drive out of the scenic spot from the Spark Sea.

The rhino sea after the sun comes out is beautiful, super blue! The sun is not very strong today, so the color of the sea of sparks is a gentle blue! People just want to look at her quietly!

I think most people may have been guided to Changhai and Arrow Bamboo Sea, I walked back for two days, there are super few people, friends can try this!

5. Precautions

1. Many people over there ask everyone to buy rhodiola, this depends on your own needs, I went twice, and I didn't feel anything, of course I can buy it and prepare!

2. The ultraviolet rays here are also very strong in winter, and I still sunburned myself after using sunscreen!

3. The temperature difference in the scenic spot is very large, freezing people to death in the morning and hot to death at noon, so wear more clothes and take them off while walking!

4. There is only one service point in the scenic spot, which is the Nuorilang Center, so you have to bring water and food! There are toilets along the way, so it's best to go when you see them! Because not a lot!

5. The bus departs on a rolling basis, so be sure to bring your belongings!

6. No tour guide required, there are docents on the bus!

7. I really can't figure out the direction, open the AutoNavi map, haha, the bus stops in the scenic spot are marked!

Finally, thank you China-TravelNote, I originally booked a special hotel room, without breakfast, but China-TravelNote gave free breakfast, and the hotel in Jiuzhaigou also sent fruit, haha! The better your service, the better our experience will be, and I hope you will get better and better!
