Jiuzhaigou 2-Day Itinerary

Mountains and rivers, long and wide, green water, clear skies, and clouds. This is not the Jiuzhaigou in books, but a fairyland in your memory. Itinerary: Day 1: Chengdu East - Huanglong Jiuzhai (about 2 hours) Depart from Chengdu East Station. You can choose a train ticket for noon or 1:00 pm. After arriving at Huanglong Jiuzhai Station, you can take a bus, rent a car, or carpool. You can book a car rental on Trip.com. After arriving at the hotel, you can take a short break and enjoy a yak meat hot pot. Day 2: Get up in the morning and go to Jiuzhaigou (there is a storage point at the entrance of the scenic area). After the tour, you can take a bus or rent a car to the high-speed rail station. Be sure to pay attention to the time and reserve about 2.5 hours to get to the high-speed rail station to avoid missing your train. (During holidays, it is recommended to rent a car for convenience and speed.) Travel tips: The scenic area is arranged in a Y-shape. The order of the tour is arranged by the scenic area, but you can still choose the direction. When you arrive at Nuorilang Center Station, you can ask to get off and choose to go left or right. On a sunny day, be sure to choose the right side! Right side! Right side! Important things should be said three times! Left side highlights: Long Lake, Five-Color Pond (must-see) Right side highlights: Five-Flower Lake (must-see), Pearl Beach Middle highlights: Nuorilang Waterfall Lower highlights: Rhinoceros Lake, Shuzheng Lakes, Shuzheng Waterfall, Spark Lake, Double Dragon Lake Note! The scenic area is open from 8:30 am to 6:00 pm. Entry is prohibited after 2:00 pm. Tips: ① To avoid altitude sickness, it is recommended not to stay up late or exercise vigorously. Those who are prone to altitude sickness should not take a bath or wash their hair. ② It is best to enter the scenic area early. After 4:00 pm, the light is not good. Visit during the golden hours. It is recommended to visit the right line in the morning and the left line in the afternoon (you can ask the guide in advance which side you are assigned to). ③ In winter, some sections of the plank road in Jiuzhaigou are icy. It is recommended to wear non-slip shoes. ④ You don't need to bring too much food. Travel light and bring some Snickers and electrolyte water.

Hot water is also provided, which is very convenient. ⑤ There is no need to check in at every attraction in one day. Just choose the highlights. ⑥ It is best to book a hotel near the entrance for convenience. ⑦ Sunglasses and hats are a must!
