5.2 departure

I am really excited to travel with my baby Z for the first time on May Day~

Since May Day baby z holiday from May 1st to May 8th, and it was only in late April that these days of vacation were implemented, in order to avoid the peak of tourism and still have a good time, as a handsome boy, I chose to travel with a group for the sake of being conservative, and the time was chosen to set off on May 3 or 4 to avoid the peak of traffic. In fact, at the beginning, we planned to go to Aden Daocheng, which has been popular for a long time, but after looking at Daocheng, the best time to see it is in autumn and winter, and there is a section in the travel itinerary that needs to be hiked for more than ten kilometers, so let's put Daocheng aside for the time being. Later, I also looked at the travel guide in Guizhou, but Baby Z didn't like to walk too much hilly areas, and after thinking about it, I chose to take a look at Jiuzhaigou, which has very few thunderbolts, and decided to go to Jiuzhaigou in Chengdu after decisively placing an order to go on a group tour, because I was afraid that the price of the ticket would increase again later (in fact, I took a look again on April 30 and found that the price dropped a little, but forget it).

In fact, we were also a little worried when we chose Jiuzhaigou at the beginning, because in May, Jiuzhaigou and the yellow dragon next door were in the dry season, but after looking at everyone's strategy, I felt that the impact was not too great, so I still firmly chose to go to Jiuzhaigou with the group, and on the afternoon of May 3, I set off from Shenzhen Bao'an Airport to Chengdu Shuangliu Airport ~ On the afternoon of May 2, the handsome boy took the high-speed rail from Guangzhou to Shenzhen to meet Baby Z, and it was dark when he came to Shenzhen. I was so hungry that I found a nearby rooftop barbecue restaurant for dinner, speaking of which it was still raining heavily in Shenzhen that night, although there were tents on the rooftop, there was still a little bit of water...

Shenzhen I went straight to the barbecue restaurant that night when I arrived in Shenzhen, but unfortunately it was raining and leaking, otherwise the rooftop was quite good

Shenzhen The boss strongly recommends her store's stocking milk tea, I personally feel that the taste is too strong,

eat and drink enough, go back and sleep until I wake up naturally and get ready to go

5.3 Chengdu

Because we booked a plane ticket to Chengdu Shuangliu Airport on the afternoon of May 3, we thought that we didn't have to get up early and go to have morning tea before leaving, but later found that we were thinking too much-_-. Originally, we wanted to go to the Fan Building in Huangbeiling at first, but when we went there, we found that it was crowded with people and we were afraid to look at it, so we could only eat something near the subway station and set off.

Shenzhen We chose Hainan Airlines for our trip, and the promotional video in the plane is quite special, if you take a Hainan Airlines flight, you can pay attention to it.

Shenzhen I could see such a blue sky on the plane, and it was completely dark on the way.

After a two-and-a-half-hour flight, we finally arrived at Shuangliu Airport at 4:30, and when we got off the plane, we turned off the airplane mode and the driver called us, saying that we should wait at No. 31 in the T2 parking lot. Speaking of which, No. 31 is an online car-hailing parking hospitality point, but we didn't pay attention at that time, so we looked for it in the order of the parking lot number, and we didn't find the parking lot for a long time, and we made several calls to ask where the driver is @_@, here I would like to remind friends who go to Shuangliu Airport for the first time to wait for pick-up, the open-air parking lot of Shuangliu Airport is distributed by area, don't look at the order... There is a designated area in the online car-hailing parking lot, which is probably located at the convenience service station at the airport.

On the first day, except for picking up at the hotel and arriving at the hotel, we were free to move around the rest of the time, so we went to the hotel to rectify and then came out of Chengdu non-stop.

Chunxi Road At 8 p.m., it was not completely dark in Chengdu

Because of the limited time, we chose the more famous attraction in Chengdu - Chunxi Road. I have to say that holidays are amazing, we are all crowded on the street, and Baby Z also said that it was like coming to the east gate of Shenzhen - _-hahahaha.

At the beginning, we planned to go to a nearby Internet celebrity store, but unfortunately there were too many people queuing up, and the number was full, but we didn't want to eat hot pot, so we could only temporarily find the next recommended Sichuan restaurant. After looking at it, we finally chose a Sichuan restaurant that is said to have very good reviews and is quite authentic, and when we went, there was just a seat, and not long after we sat down, we started queuing.

Chengdu This seems to be called "thick soup with fresh shrimp and boiled bamboo shoots", which I personally feel is quite suitable for the appetite of Cantonese people.

Chengdu Hard dishes We ordered "Overlord Green Pepper Rabbit" and "Steamed Pork", the rabbit meat is cut too small and not enjoyable enough. The steamed pork was different from what I had eaten in college before, but it felt much better.

After eating and drinking, we took a stroll around the neighborhood, and when we went to a new place, we couldn't help but go to a local bar. Originally, the bar I chose was already full of people and there were no seats in it, but then I continued to look for it on the road and found a bar that seemed to be a new one, which looked pretty good, so I chose this one.

Chengdu There are also many rare canned craft beers *_*, and the resident singers are quite good at singing

Chengdu Baby Z couldn't drink by himself, so he ordered her a bottle of juice ^_^ It

was also very late to finish drinking, and he would get up early tomorrow morning and set off. So we hurried back to the hotel to lie

down

5.4 Chengdu-Jiuzhaigou

6:50 a.m. on May 4th, we are going to set off to Chengdu Panda Park to see the giant pandas, pay attention to the difference between this and the Chengdu Panda Base. Since the hotel breakfast is 7:00-10:00, so we can only eat the packaged breakfast provided by the hotel, here to complain, although we understand that the food that has not started to be packed for breakfast may be more secondary, but these packed breakfasts are too unpalatable, especially those cakes, I feel like gnawing on a dried sponge when I eat it, although the tour guide said that our route is to relive the Red Army's Long March Road, but anyway, I will not be like this when I travel and eat

I have to say that Chengdu was still sultry the night before, and it immediately became cold this morning, and my baby Z and I were wearing shorts alone and short skirts alone haha-_ But we couldn't stand it on the road later, so we changed into down jackets and jackets directly. It took about half an hour to drive to Panda Paradise, and I have to say that it was really cold outside after getting off the car. . .

Dujiangyan China Giant Panda Garden (formerly Panda Paradise) When we arrived, we happened to encounter the activities of pandas, and it was great to see the giant pandas jumping around

Dujiangyan China Giant Panda Garden (formerly Panda Paradise).

Dujiangyan China Giant Panda Garden (formerly Panda Paradise) In addition to giant pandas, there are also red pandas here

Dujiangyan China Giant Panda Garden (formerly Panda Paradise) When walking in it, you must be careful to step on these small insects at any

time After walking around inside, at about 9:30, we were about to leave for the hotel on the other side of Jiuzhaigou, and the hotel we had booked before was full, so we went to the hotel where the prime minister was said to have stayed. How to say, the five-star hotel here in Jiuzhaigou is estimated to be equivalent to a three-star hotel in the city, as long as you can live comfortably, cleanly and hygienicly. It took us about 8 hours to get from Chengdu to the vicinity of Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area, and there are still many sharp curves and rockfalls on the road, so we advise you to carefully consider choosing to travel to Jiuzhaigou by car. The closer the road is to Jiuzhaigou, the lower the temperature feels, but there is also a reason for the increase in altitude, it was raining at first, and then it didn't take long for it to start snowing outside, and it felt like it had experienced all the seasons in these two days.

Diexi-Songpinggou Scenic Area

We also stopped at Diexi and Songcheng on the way.

Diexi-Songpinggou Scenic Area

After coming to the vicinity of the scenic spot, we ate the Tibetan-style clay hot pot included in the tour group in advance, which felt a bit similar to the Tibetan home visit when I graduated from high school and visited Yunnan, so I won't go into detail here. After eating, we immediately went back to the hotel to rest and prepare for tomorrow's most important attraction - Jiuzhaigou!

5.5 Jiuzhaigou

Since we live less than 10 minutes' drive from Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area, we rarely don't have to get up early to go to the scenic spot ^_^. I have to say that the scenery of Jiuzhaigou is really beautiful, and even the dry season does not affect its amazement at all. The entire scenic spot is generally a Y-shaped route, but one of the forks is temporarily closed and cannot be seen.

Jiuzhaigou Another branch can only see the sea of flowers, and you can't see it further up.

The sightseeing car in the scenic spot needs to be paid for separately, so it is recommended to buy it, because the whole mountain road, a scenic spot is basically more than 1 kilometer, walking will be tiring to death, and you may be able to take a special car directly to the mountain when you stagger the peak.There is a Nuorilang Center in the Nuorilang Waterfall in Jiuzhaigou, which is a meeting point, basically all sightseeing buses start from here to take tourists to various attractions, at the beginning we went to the route of Wuhuahai, as the first attraction, Wuhuahai has amazed us.

Jiuzhaigou-Wuhuahai Just came to Wuhuahai to take a picture

Jiuzhaigou-Wuhuahai Pingshi also took a picture

Jiuzhaigou-Wuhuahai Let Baby Z also help me take a picture hahahahaha

After reading here, we started to walk down to see the scenery, not much to say, the photo arrangement!

The next attraction is Pearl Beach Waterfall:

Pearl Beach Waterfall This is the waterfall where the master and apprentice walked at the beginning of the legendary 84th edition of Journey to the West The

next attraction is the Mirror Sea, when we first took the car up the mountain, there was no wind here at that time, the whole lake was really like a mirror, super spectacular, but unfortunately we didn't take pictures in time at that time, and when we got here, the wind was already blowing, what a pity:

Mirror Sea If there is no wind, it is really beautiful

Mirror Sea

After reading here, I am about to return to the Nuorilang Center, where tourists can solve the lunch problem, the price is okay, 30 yuan a large bowl of braised beef noodles, but as for the meat in the bowl, don't expect it, I look at the little meat in the baby bowl I am -_-#. Forget it, just eat enough. After eating, we can sit and rest in it, and when we have rested enough, we can take the car to see another branch - Changhai.

Colorful Pool In fact, this is not the Changhai Sea, but the colorful pool of Jiuzhaigou, which is almost dry

When I came to Changhai, I found that this place was quite affected by the dry period, Changhai forgot which photo, so I remembered the colorful pond under Changhai, but the water also dried up a lot, note that this is not Huanglong's colorful pond, so I didn't take many photos all the way. Further down is the landscape of the main road, not much to say, continue to put photos!

Jiuzhaigou

Jiuzhaigou The snow-capped mountains here are quite beautiful

Jiuzhaigou By noon, the snow in the sunny snow-capped mountains began to melt

Jiuzhaigou

Jiuzhaigou The water is really clear

Jiuzhaigou Looking at Jiuzhaigou, you can not only see the grand landscape, but also the scenery of some details is also very good

Jiuzhaigou This is already a relatively downstream place, and there are many such prayer wheels on the waterfront

Jiuzhaigou

Jiuzhaigou Some tree trunks fall and soak in water, which looks pretty good

Jiuzhaigou

Jiuzhaigou There are actually fish in the water

Even a lake is the shape of loving

you~ The park seems to be closed at 17:00, but in fact, after a whole day, there will be aesthetic fatigue in the back, and the downstream attractions are basically passed by the area, when the two of us took a taxi back in advance, the driver on the road also asked us if we were ready to go to Huanglong the next day, and said that there is nothing to see in the current Huanglong dry season, except for the colorful pond on the top of the mountain, the rest of the places are dry and waterless, we...Because we didn't have high expectations for the tour group meal, we went back to the hotel in the evening and went back to the room to rest, and waited until 9 o'clock to go out for a late-night snack ^_^.

We found a barbecue restaurant with good reviews, which is not very far if you walk for about ten minutes. But after finding it, the boss asked us if we had an appointment, and I ??? (You actually have to make an appointment here??? But the boss still let us in and order later). At first, the boss strongly recommended that we order a lamb chop or grilled fish, but thinking that we were only two people, so we still declined, but we didn't expect that after we didn't order these things, the boss instantly changed his face, let us look at the menu and go to the proprietress to bake the things we wanted, ah, it's really unpretentious-_-.

Jiuzhaigou The taste is okay, but I personally feel a little salty, but it's really cool with beer!

One day we had enough to eat and drink, because we needed to leave at 6:50 tomorrow, so we should rest early in the evening and wait for the next day's yellow dragon.

5.6 Huanglong-Chengdu

Although we are a little mentally prepared that Huanglong is not as beautiful as Jiuzhaigou, in fact, we still feel very good after visiting the scene, but overall, we have always thought that Huanglong's snow-capped mountains are much better than the pool hahaha.

We took the cable car up to the top of the mountain (here is also a reminder that Huanglong's stop is also an additional fee), and when we reached the top of the mountain, we found a pine forest surrounded by snow, which looked pretty good. Moreover, where there are pine trees, you may encounter squirrels. There are really a lot of squirrels here, and they are not very afraid of people, as long as you break a small piece of bread and come out, there will be squirrels looking for you to eat haha. It's also the first time I've seen a squirrel ^_^ so close.

Huanglong Scenic Area Although the squirrels seen on the scene are quite small, they are all quite fat, and they are estimated to be fed fat by tourists hahaha

The first attraction of Huanglong is the colorful pool of the top mountain, here is a reminder, although the colorful pool is not high from the top of the cable car, but it is quite far, and there is a staircase to go up to the place close to the colorful pool, and after walking a few kilometers at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, and then going up the stairs is actually very tiring for us in the plains, in order to avoid altitude sickness, you must have enough rest and do not do strenuous exercise before going. In addition, I have to say that it may be that the distance is relatively close, and the snow-capped mountains of Huanglong are much more spectacular than those of Jiuzhaigou.

Huanglong Scenic Area It's really the first time I've seen such a big snow-capped mountain so close

Huanglong Scenic Area The cute back from Baby Z~

After climbing a staircase, you can see a whole colorful pool, probably due to the dry season, I feel that it will look better during the wet season.

Colorful Pool If you look at it on the spot, the pool water is actually still gradual, and the feeling taken by the mobile phone is not very obvious

After seeing the colorful pond and taking photos, we went all the way down the mountain to prepare for the return trip, and the attractions on the mountain were all dry as the driver said yesterday, leaving only one or two and one dropped water, so we didn't take many pictures. On the way down the mountain, Baby Z's knee hurt again, ah, distressed... Return to Chengdu and have a delicious meal!

The

route back to Chengdu is basically the same way back, this day is May 6, which happens to be the first day of the release of large trucks throughout the day, so we still encounter a lot of large trucks on the road, friends who travel to Jiuzhaigou should vaccinate themselves in advance, it is likely that it will take more than ten or even twenty hours to prepare on the road because the large truck is blocked. Back in Chengdu, after some twists and turns, we finally found a barbecue restaurant that looked good and turned on the carnivore mode!

Chengdu Do it yourself and have enough food and clothing

Chengdu This kind of roasted quail eggs are quite delicious

After this meal, my first trip with my baby Z finally ended perfectly (although I was almost cold to catch a plane later-_-), I have to say that Jiuzhaigou is still worth seeing! Finally, I hope everyone can go to see their favorite places with their favorite people, put a picture and finish scattering flowers!
