Chengdu and Jiuzhaigou Tour

From feeling relaxed and energized upon arrival in Chengdu, to exploring the natural wonders of  Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong Geological National Park to immersing yourself in the rich culture of western Sichuan, every moment is full of surprises. This trip is not only a visual feast, but also a spiritual journey that will give you an in-depth understanding of the human and natural beauty of Jiuzhaigou and the surrounding area of Huanglong.

Day 1: Chengdu-Huanglong

  • Chengdu--Huanglong Scenic and Historic Interest Area--Jiuzhai Vally

  • 4+stars Hotel

  • Breakfast


After breakfast, you will embark on a journey to Huanglong Scenic and Historic Interest Area, which is is well known for the"four wonders"of colorful ponds, snow mountains, alpine gorges and forests. It has well preserved tectonic zones, glacial remains, and river source topography. 

First we will arrive at Huanglong Valley, which is famous for its world-class travertine lake terraces. It is named Huanglong because it resembles a yellow dragon perched under Xuebao Peak (5,588 meters)

The most amazing attraction is the Colorful Pools at an altitude of 3,556 meters, with 693 colorful pools that look like emerald jewels.  In addition, Huanglong Valley is also a paradise for giant pandas and golden monkeys.

Next you will take a cable car to the top of the mountain and then walk through the valley, which is expected to take about 3 hours.  After finishing your trip in Huanglong, you will be transferred to Jiuzhaigou Valley, where we will stay for the night.


Tips:
1. Due to the high altitude of Huanglong, please pay attention to the prevention of plateau reaction and bring enough warm clothes.
2. Please note that the Huanglong Ropeway is suspended in winter.
3. Food are limited in the valley, so please bring some food or snacks with you, or choose to have lunch after leaving the area.

Day 2: Jiuzhaigou Valley

  • Jiuzhaigou Valley

  • 4+stars Hotel

  • Breakfast


After breakfast, you will head to this piece of Jiuzhaigou Valley, which is known as the fairyland on earth.

Jiuzhaigou, named after the nine Tibetan villages spread out in the scenic area, has attracted the world's attention with its unrivaled natural beauty since its discovery in the mid-20th century.

The area boasts a stunning array of natural wonders, including snowy peaks, crystal-clear lakes, majestic waterfalls, lush forests, and colorful flora. The scenery changes with the seasons, with autumn being particularly vibrant as the leaves turn vibrant shades of red and yellow.

The classic tour route includes starting from the entrance of Nuorilang Waterfall, passing by the Wucai Pool, then proceeding to the Sea of Five Flowers, Pearl Beach Waterfall and so on. Eventually, you will enjoy Rhinoceros Sea, Shuzheng Waterfall and so on until you return to the park entrance to end the day's journey to the wonderland.

Afterwards, your guide and driver will transfer you back to the hotel for a rest.


Tips:

  1. Respect the Environment: As a World Heritage Site and Biosphere Reserve, it's crucial to respect the environment and abide by the park's regulations, such as not littering or feeding wildlife.

  2. Dress and equipment: Jiuzhaigou Valley is located on a plateau with a changing climate, and some visitors may experience plateau reaction. Please bring enough warm clothing and medication, and wear comfortable hiking shoes.

Special thanks to my guide, Sofia. It's really hard for me to find a Spanish tour guide. She is professional and I have a good understanding about the China culture under her guide. During the Xi'an trip, I was shocked by the strong atmosphere of culture. I hope I can go next time, really love it.

Independent travel by train in China…
Independent travel by train in China can be daunting ordeal. We decided to use Intoexplore for booking the trip and are very happy we did. It almost felt like Norman was a family member guiding us through how to use Alipay for payments in China to where to find the ticket office in the train station to convert digital tickets to paper. He was always available (sometimes at 6 am!) to answer any question and solve any problems that arose .. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who is thinking about independent travel to China .
