This trip was decided so hastily after a drink that I woke up the next morning wondering if it was a joke. But no matter what, there is also a feeling of "telling the truth after drinking". I have been living in this city in the south for a long time. Although I had the idea of going out for a walk, I was stranded due to various unreasonable reasons. My friend is right, don't make excuses, just do whatever you want. If you deny your thoughts today, you may never have any thoughts tomorrow. So, after five days of insufficient preparation, we flew to Sichuan.
On the first day when I got off the plane, Chengdu came into view. I thought it would make my eyes shine, but the result was just the opposite. It felt a bit like old Changsha. It was already 10:30 in the morning, and the sky was still gray. It seemed that there was still some air pollution. Because it was the weekend, there were not many cars on the road, and we arrived at the scheduled hotel soon.
Although the modern buildings in Chengdu are not particularly distinctive, the ancient alleys and streets are still unique. The first thing we arrived at was the gate of Kuanzhai Alley. When we got out of the car, an old hotpot restaurant appeared in front of us. We were already hungry, but the smell of hotpot wafting around led us directly into the store.
But to be honest, the hot pot is not as delicious as imagined. Although I was hungry, I ordered a table, but I didn’t feel like I didn’t want to eat it. I don’t know if I didn’t eat the most authentic one. Next time, I must Baidu to find out which one is the most authentic. ! After eating and drinking, I started wandering in the alleys. At the beginning of the alley, there was a row of food stalls, all kinds of snacks were neatly placed on the stalls, full of fragrance, red pepper, green coriander, yellow sesame oil. . . Cleverly matched, very pleasing to the eye. On both sides of the road are rows of small shops, decorated in a very ethnic style, and the goods inside are colorful.
Wide and narrow alleys can be divided into wide alleys and narrow alleys. Although it is a wide alley, it can't handle the large number of tourists. We just follow the flow of people and move forward slowly. After walking through the patchwork alleys, we took a taxi to Jinli Ancient Street. The two scenic spots are not far away, about 10 minutes by car. Compared with the combination of simple design and ancient buildings in Kuanzhai Alley, Jinli has more ethnic customs. All the buildings are antique, and the products sold are also biased towards ethnic culture. However, the commonality between the two is that everywhere they go is colorful. Perhaps because of the inheritance from generation to generation, Chengdu people seem to be good at matching colors. Bright colors, not obtrusive, very beautiful.
The two scenic spots have been shopping from 12:00 noon to around 5:00 pm. After dinner, I bought some snacks needed for the itinerary, and then returned to the hotel to rest. It is necessary to give a grand introduction to the hotel we stayed at that night.
Location: The hotel is located in the Kuanzhai Alley known as the "Chengdu Living Room".
Subway: Exit of Kuanzhai Alley is Metro Line 4
Location: The location is really great! It's right in the Kuanzhai Alley scenic spot, and it's very convenient to go shopping and eat right away. It is not far from Chunxi Road, Taikoo Li, Tianfu Square, etc. You can take the subway or take a taxi. If you take a taxi, it is about ten yuan.
Hotel style: I like the overall style of this homestay very much. The design of the guest rooms is Japanese style, made of pure wooden structure. The room smells a unique fragrance, which is very comfortable. There are also handmade Shu embroidery in the room, as well as the wren bird specially painted by the painters.

Bathroom: Whether I stay in a hotel or a homestay, the most important thing I pay attention to when I go out is the bathroom. The cleanliness of the bathroom can definitely affect my mood. I want to give full marks to the bathroom of the wren! The details show low-key luxury. Super five-star luxury configuration, carnation linen, Jin Keer mattress, Kohler bathroom products, TOTO smart toilet, it feels like you can feel the store's heart when you turn on the faucet.
Washing area: It is worth mentioning that the washing area is separated from wet and dry. You can take a shower or lie in the bathtub to take a bath. The hotel also provides bath salts.
The three-piece body wash and skin care set is still American Zunjipa (a high-end spa skin care brand in New York, USA). I used this brand at a Sheraton in Guangdong before and liked it very much. I didn’t expect to be able to use it again in Chengdu. Moreover, according to the housekeeper, Zunjipa has specially tailored a set of techniques for the hotel. Based on the local culture, environment, and climate, plus some traditional Chinese medicine physical therapy techniques, the hotel's unique "wren's nest" has been created. Forest".
Bedding: It is so comfortable to lie down and fall asleep in minutes. The quilt and mattress are very soft and skin-friendly. I like to sleep on buckwheat pillows, and the hotel kindly provided me with buckwheat pillows.
The biggest highlight is the hotel butler, a group of very enthusiastic friends. When I was about to arrive at Kuanzhai Alley, the housekeeper contacted me in advance, and even came to pick me up at the entrance of the alley and introduced us to the culture of Kuanzhai Alley along the way. This alone made me feel good about this hotel . When I arrived at the hotel, the housekeeper learned that I couldn't eat spicy food, so he specially prepared non-spicy Chao Shou for breakfast.
In order to avoid scattered booking of hotels and scenic spot tickets in various places, we pre-booked the Chengdu-Huanglong-Jiuzhaigou three-day and two-night tour group from the 25th to the 27th. Thinking about it now, this decision is very wise. The food and accommodation along the way There is a tour guide arrangement, which really saves a lot of heart. Since the departure time is 5:30 in the morning, we got up at 4:00 in the morning the next day. After tidying up, we went to the hotel lobby to wait for the person who came to pick up the car. This is also one of the benefits of joining a group. You don’t have to go by yourself. Zhang Luo car. Chengdu is 8 or 9 hours away from Huanglong and Jiuzhaigou by car. In order not to delay the time to visit Huanglong that day, the general tour group departs very early, and there must be insufficient sleep. After getting on the bus, listen to the introduction and requirements of the tour guide Datong. A large car of people fell asleep in a daze. Until seven or eight o'clock in the morning, the sky was already dark, and the tour guide began to "play tricks" again. Because he didn't eat anything in the morning, the boat was exhausted, and the buzzing voice of the tour guide in his ears, the content was the Wenchuan earthquake again. How many people died? People and the like, my stomach feels a little overwhelmed, I really want to yell "shut up", but unfortunately I don't have the courage to offend the people who will control my life in the next few days. Things like motion sickness medicine are really important for long-distance buses! Fortunately, I passed a stop halfway and got out of the car to take a breath before avoiding the crime of vomiting. The restrooms at the stops along the road are run by the residents themselves, so they all charge 1 yuan. The conditions are all kinds of disgusting, and I don’t want to look back. Arrived at a hotel at noon to eat, oh, it should be just to satisfy my hunger. Regarding the food, the tour guide has already been vaccinated in advance. I actually don’t have much requirements for the food, but even I can’t say it’s delicious, it’s really bad. But there is no way, people are under the eaves, and it is necessary to make do with it. Next time, you must bring your own old godmother or something, so that you can eat deliciously and stay in good health! After eating, we set off non-stop. Along the way, we meandered along the S-shaped mountain road. The peaks on both sides of the road became steeper and steeper, and the colors of the plants on the mountain became more and more colorful, giving people the illusion that we are about to enter a paradise. . However, the swaying car always brings the yearning back to reality. After going around like this until two o'clock in the afternoon, I finally arrived at the nearest medical service station to Huanglong Scenic Area. After the car stopped, a staff member came up and explained to us what we should pay attention to when visiting the scenic area and altitude sickness. As for altitude sickness, I really didn’t know much about it when I first came here. I simply bought a box of rhodiola capsules. I didn’t expect that this capsule would have to be taken a week in advance. It’s not very useful to eat now. There’s no way , For the sake of my own health, and I have begun to feel a little bit of chest tightness and shortness of breath, I bought a box with tears in my eyes. It should also be emphasized here that altitude sickness should not be underestimated. If you travel to a place with a higher altitude, you must prepare in advance. Whether it is taking medicine in advance or buying this kind of oral liquid that you drink now, it is cheaper to buy it outside the scenic spot. A lot, if you are really unprepared, don't take the risk of not eating just to save a few dollars, after all, a good body is the foundation of everything. Not long after drinking the medicine, the car drove to the gate of Huanglong Scenic Area, but there was no car, and it continued along the long queue of tourists without end. The queue stretched back three to four hundred meters, longer than my I have seen that the queues in the peak season of Chimelong are even longer! My heart suddenly became cold, when will this be scheduled? ! The tour guide was also a little anxious, and urged us to get off the bus and line up before the car stopped at the end of the line. As soon as I got out of the car, a chill hit my face. Now I have reached an altitude of about 3200. Although the sun is shining brightly, the temperature is quite low, so I can't help but wrap up my clothes.
The entrance of the scenic spot is built in the valley, and the distance between the two mountains is not wide. Looking up, the blue sky and white clouds are like a narrow and beautiful oil painting covering the top of the mountain. On the right side of the queuing aisle is a small stream, the stream is gurgling, clear and melodious. I don't know when it started, all the scenery that came into view have become beautiful pictures, which may be the charm of this place. After queuing for about forty minutes, we took the cableway up the mountain. It may be that there are a lot of tourists to be received every day, and the speed of the cableway is relatively fast. Friends who are afraid of heights suggest not to open your eyes, it is really exciting! As the cableway ascends, the field of vision gradually breaks away from the shackles of the valley and is filled by other mountains in the distance. I don't know if it's because of the rapid ascent or seeing the magnificent mountain peaks in the distance, my heart beats faster and faster, but this feeling quickly disappears as I reach the top of the mountain. To be honest, I still feel a little unsatisfied.
Get off the cableway and follow the plank road all the way, enjoying the scenery of the virgin forest along the way. The plank road with a relatively single direction is a common feature of this scenic spot, which not only protects the landscape here from being damaged, but also protects the safety of tourists. There are not many scenic spots in Huanglong. The main thing we want to see is the Wucai Pool, but the Wucai Pool is at the highest point of the entire scenic spot, so we have to walk along this plank road to the end. At the beginning, we will be attracted by some tall or odd-shaped trees, but as time goes by and physical strength decreases, such scenery is no longer enough to attract our attention. In addition, at this time, Guo Feng had already started to suffer from altitude sickness, so it was even harder to walk. When I stopped and walked for about a third of the distance, I saw the snow-capped mountains on the plateau for the first time on the first viewing platform. The majestic mountain peaks soar into the clouds, and the snow on the mountain is more crystal clear against the blue sky. The white clouds stop quietly on the top of the mountain for a long time and refuse to leave. The sun pours down through the thick clouds, like the light of Buddha, which is very spectacular. . I have seen the snow-capped mountains in TV movies or novels before, especially the Changbai Mountain in "Tomb Raider Notes". Although I was shocked when I read it, I couldn't fully appreciate the magnificence. Now I see it with my own eyes, and the experience is even more Thoroughly, I have the idea of going to Changbai Mountain to see it.
After a few minutes of admiring on the viewing platform, we followed the plank road towards the scenic spot closer to the snow mountain—Huanglong Wucai Pool (the reason why Huanglong is emphasized is that there is also a Wucai pool in Jiuzhaigou). The journey was even more difficult, and Guo Feng's altitude sickness became more serious. Fortunately, he bought a bottle of oxygen while queuing, otherwise she would be really afraid that she would lose her breath. After walking like this for a short distance, I need to take two breaths. I look like a high-risk patient, and my arm naturally becomes her solid backing. Stepping on high-heeled boots, she attracted the gazes of people around her and the sounds of surprise and admiration. Her face was full of helplessness. I think her heart must have collapsed at the time =_=", and she walked two-thirds of the way up the plank road. The place started to go uphill. At this time, I was a little out of breath, but it was almost the same as climbing the 8th floor when I went home. I was suddenly glad that I lived on the 8th floor, which allowed me to breathe normally at an altitude of 3500. These discomforts are in the The moment I saw the colorful pool, I was relieved. Huanglong’s colorful pool is composed of more than ten pools, large and small. Each pool is like a palette that is independent of each other and complements each other. The colors are mainly green, blue and yellow. Dotted with other colors, it looks like an exquisite painting displayed between heaven and earth, which is so beautiful that people are intoxicated. At this time, the snow mountain stands majestically at the end of the valley, like a serious and loyal guard, guarding for thousands of years. Looking at this sacred place on earth. How much nature loves this land to give them such beautiful scenery! It would be great if you could lie by the colorful pool and feel her peaceful atmosphere with your eyes closed. Unfortunately, by the pool They are full of people, as strong as a city wall, and they cannot be squeezed in at all. Alas, this is a common phenomenon in popular tourist attractions. It is difficult to stand on tiptoe to take a few photos and then walk down the mountain helplessly.
It is true that it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down the mountain. Going up the mountain is supported by excitement, and going down the mountain depends entirely on perseverance. Although the plank road going down the mountain passes through several scenic spots, none of them are as beautiful as the Wucai Pond, and the time is limited, so it is muffled all the way forward. Guo Feng's two highs (altitude sickness + high heels) have completely made her lose her former combat effectiveness, and I limped down with my support. It was almost dark, and the meeting time agreed by the tour guide had passed, so I couldn’t help feeling a little anxious. I thought that if I had the strength, I would definitely carry her and run down without saying a word, until 6:40 p.m. We finally walked out of the gate of the scenic spot on the verge of collapse. A simple downhill road took us nearly 2 hours. At this time, I just want to take a shower and sleep! However, we are not the last ones to go down the mountain. There are two groups of people in the group who have not come down, including a group of 6 elderly people. These are 6 old men and old ladies from Shenyang. They talked and laughed along the way, and they couldn’t tell that the average age was 60 years old. Sometimes when I saw them, I would wonder if I could be as old as them. How about walking such a difficult road like them? At that time, were there any friends who were willing to accompany us to see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland? When I think about it this way, I feel a little sad in my heart. After waiting in the car for about half an hour, they finally got down. One of their aunts had severe altitude sickness and vomited a lot. At such an old age, they came to climb Huanglong, the highest altitude of 3700, which is really admirable! But also sweat for them. At 8:00 p.m., there was a free ticket to watch the show, but due to too much time wasted on the mountain and everyone was tired, it was unanimously agreed to cancel it. At night, I stayed at Chuanzhu Temple at an altitude of about 3,000 meters. When I got off the bus at the hotel, I felt the deep coolness from this place. My teeth began to chatter and my feet trembled. After dinner without any expectations, we went back to our rooms to rest. Since this day is directly from Chengdu, which is 500 meters above sea level, to more than 3,000 meters above sea level, the tour guide specifically asked us not to take a shower or wash our hair, so as not to catch a cold, and to sleep on our side to avoid altitude sickness during sleep. I thought that the day would pass like this, but I didn't expect that the altitude sickness of my companion did not disappear because of going down the mountain.
At one o'clock in the morning, I was woken up by the sound of heavy breathing and the light. Guo Feng was lying on the bed limply, with a painful expression on his face, saying that he felt a lot of stones on his chest and couldn't breathe. I got up and boiled some water, ready to give her the Rhodiola capsules I prepared earlier. Originally, I didn’t want to drink the water here. The tour guide said before that the water here is rich in minerals. Although it is clear, it is not suitable for drinking. It is easy to get kidney stones, but there is no way. The mineral water I bought before is gone. . After boiling the water, Guo Feng took a sip and felt his throat burning, so he finally took the medicine with cold mineral water. After getting up and tossing for a long time without any sleepiness, Guo Feng showed no signs of improvement. He said that he was still very uncomfortable and wanted to call the tour guide. I hesitated for a while. After all, it’s not good to call to wake up others in the middle of the night, but seeing that it was useless after taking medicine, I had no choice but to call the tour guide. I didn’t expect that the phone that claimed to be open for 24 hours was prompted to shut down Yes, after calling two or three times in a row, it was the same, and my heart sank unconsciously. Guo Feng suggested to go to the front desk of the hotel to find out which room she was staying in. Thinking of the cold wind outside, I was still quite scared, but seeing Guo Feng in pain, I gritted my teeth and walked out. We lived on the third floor, and I looked around before closing the door, but I couldn't see a single person. Also, it's cold in the middle of the night, so why stay outside when there's nothing to do. The hotel is in the shape of a "mouth". You can see the situation in the corridor clearly at a glance. Because it is a closed structure, the echo is also very obvious. Every step I take, there are one or two footsteps. It sounded very scary. I don’t know if it’s because of the cold or because the hotel is trying to save electricity. The lights in the corridor are very dark, with pale yellow in the dim light. I can only turn on the flashlight of my mobile phone and walk forward. In this way, there are several light sources, and the shadows on the ground I also have several, because every time I take a step, I will look around, and I can always unconsciously see the shadows on both sides of my eyes. I know it in my heart, but I also associate a lot. The whole atmosphere is not to mention how scary! I walked to the first floor in fear like this, thinking that I would finally see people at the front desk, but I didn't expect the front desk to be empty, but the hotel door was open, so my scalp was numb again. I feel that there must be someone at the front desk, and even if I encounter something, I can yell to attract attention, but now, I have confirmed that I am the only one in this empty and quiet environment, and my heart beats faster. The horror clip is also very suitable for looping in my mind, I want to teleport and roll back to the room! I wanted to go outside to buy some medicine, but when I looked out through the glass wall, the outside was like a dark bottomless abyss, with my mouth wide open waiting for me to throw myself into the trap. I gave up this idea instantly and contacted the front desk The person's phone was not found, so he immediately turned around and walked back. It's strange, the more afraid people are, the more they want to pretend to be calm, thinking that this will make people afraid of themselves. Thinking about it now, this is just a way of self-comfort. If someone is really lurking in the dark, they will only care about whether you have money or not, whether you look good or not, who cares whether you are calm or flustered! Feeling so worried and fearful for a long time, I finally returned to the room, until I confirmed that the door was closed, a hanging heart finally fell down. Fortunately, Guo Feng vomited when I first went out, and he is much better now. Looking at the time, it is already three o'clock in the morning. If he wakes up at five o'clock, he still has two hours to rest. So I went to bed quickly, and within two minutes of lying on the bed, I fell asleep in a daze.
At 5 o'clock in the morning, the familiar and annoying alarm clock rang again. After struggling for a few minutes, she reluctantly left the warm bed. No. 26 is the most important stop of this journey - the fairy tale world Jiuzhaigou, we have a whole day to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Guo Feng's physical strength has basically recovered, which is also a great fortune! Otherwise, if it's like yesterday, then our trip is really in vain. The weather that day was a bit gloomy, and the top of the mountain was covered with dark clouds. A heavy rain must be inevitable. I really miss the weather in Huanglong yesterday! But we took raincoats and umbrellas, even if there was hail, it couldn't stop us from seeing the beautiful scenery! While waiting to get the tickets, I saw a father and daughter in the same group. I heard from Guo Feng that the uncle handed her a tissue when she was motion sick and vomited in the car. They are very gentle, so Now I can't help but pay more attention when I see it at close range. The uncle's hair is a little gray, but he looks very energetic. He wears glasses and smiles when he meets people. He is indeed a warm person. His daughter is very young, she looks to be only about 20 years old, she looks very handsome, and her smile is as warm as her father's. These days, people who are so old and travel alone with her father are almost unheard of. , I was a little moved unconsciously, but when I discussed the reason with Guo Feng, she said a less moving reason, saying that her mother might have passed away, and she couldn't help feeling a little sad in her heart.
Thinking about walking like this, the gate of Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area appeared in front of me. The entrance gate is much wider than that of Huanglong, and there is no need to take a cable car, so it is relatively fast to queue in. While queuing up to get on the sightseeing bus, it really started to rain lightly, and it got heavier and heavier after a while, so we had to take out our raincoats and put them on. At this time, I really wanted to slap myself, because the raincoat I bought in advance was put in the trunk of the car, but not in the small bag on my body. Now I only have a bad gift raincoat, which is still a pullover , Looking at my body like a bun, tens of thousands of grass and mud horses roared past in my heart, I really wanted to tear this raincoat to pieces. But in the end, rationality overcame impulse. I took out my umbrella and put it on the small bag. I just followed the tourist team and waited for the sightseeing bus. There are three gullies developed in Jiuzhaigou, each of which is different in length. The long one takes more than half an hour to drive by sightseeing bus, and the short one takes ten to twenty minutes. It is definitely impossible to walk, unless You can spend three days here, so the way to visit is to rely on the non-stop shuttle of more than 600 sightseeing cars. The intersection of the three lines is the only tourist service center and the only smoking point in the ditch. All the sightseeing cars are dispatched here to decide which ditch to go to first. After the decision is made, the sightseeing cars will drive along the road all the way to each The highest point of the ditch, and then tourists will slowly go back along the tour plank road. You can get on and off at the scenic spots that are far away, so we can take the bus to the next scenic spot immediately after watching this scenic spot. The first thing we visited was Rize Valley. After listening to the tour guide, we did not go to the primeval forest at the highest point of Rize Valley, but got off at Jianzhuhai. In fact, the tour guide on the sightseeing bus has already briefly introduced the origins and legends of various attractions along the way. We have also hurriedly admired the picturesque scenery, but when we finally got off the bus and walked into this fairy tale world by ourselves, we were still deeply shocked. up. These large and small lakes are called Haizi here, and each Haizi has its own legend and characteristics. At this time, the Jianzhu Lake came into view. Because it is the innermost lake in this ditch, it is a little more deep and quiet than the outer lake. The water surface is not very wide, and there are many reed-like plants on the shore. Since it just rained, there are still many crystal clear drops of water hanging on the plants on both sides of the plank road. When the wind blows, they fall to the water surface, causing waves of ripples.
As you go down the plank road, you will arrive at the Panda Sea. The Panda Sea is named because the color of the sea surface is divided into black and green, which is a bit like a giant panda. The Panda Sea is much wider than the Arrow Bamboo Sea. There are no aquatic plants on the water surface, and it is as calm as a mirror. At this time, the rain had stopped, and the sky above the head was already covered with blue sky and white clouds, reflected on the water surface, decorating Haizi even more blue.
When a person fully enjoys the sight, the sense of taste will become insignificant. We drove to Jiuzhaigou after breakfast at 6 o'clock. We walked around from 8 o'clock in the morning to 12 o'clock now, and we didn't have the signal of hunger. So we ate some snacks at the rest point of Panda Lake, and then got on the bus to Wuhua Lake, one of the essence of Jiuzhaigou.
If Haizi in Jiuzhaigou is a masterpiece of nature, then Wuhuahai is a masterpiece of nature! Seeing her, you will feel that all the hard work in the past few days is worth it. Whether it is seven or eight hours on the bus, or the soreness of going up and down the mountain, her beauty can heal you. This is a kind of beauty that cannot be described in any language; this is a kind of beauty that people are willing to go through untold hardships to find. People who see her will be reluctant to look away, for fear that they will miss the meeting every minute; people who see her will take out their cameras to freeze her beauty because they can't digest the beauty in a short time. ; People who see her will temporarily forget all their troubles, and every corner of their hearts will be filled with her figure. I have always dreamed of beautiful scenery, but I have never seen the beauty of Wuhuahai in my dreams. It's a pity that Haizi is surrounded by people who have been reluctant to leave for a long time. We left this fairyland step by step with reluctance, but our hearts could not be calm for a long time.
Wuhuahai goes down to the Pearl Beach Waterfall. The magnificence of the waterfall cannot be compared with the great waterfalls all over the country, but this piece of whiteness in a specific scenery is also unique. In addition, this waterfall is the scene of the 86 edition of Journey to the West. However, it still attracted a lot of people to watch and take pictures.
The waterfall continued to descend until we reached Jinghai, but with Zhu Yu from Wuhuahai in front, the other lakes also lost their beauty somewhat. After going down, we returned to the Nuorilang Visitor Center, where we rested for a while and continued to drive to the next ditch—Chawa Ditch. This ditch is the longest among the three, but there are relatively few scenic spots, only four. Along the way, we decided to visit two scenic spots in it - Changhai and Wucai Pond. After driving for half an hour, the car arrived at the top of the ditch - Changhai.
Changhai is equivalent to the mother sea of all the lakes in Jiuzhaigou. Because the terrain is higher and it is at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, the water volume in each season is very stable and will be supplied to other lakes. Standing on the viewing platform and looking down, a piece of pure blue comes into view. Although the sky above is blue and white clouds, Haizi does not reflect it, but inhales the blue of the sky deeply into his body, revealing The water patterns blown by the breeze from time to time, playfully torturing the eyes of tourists. The snow-capped mountain stands at the end of the long sea, selflessly dedicating his love and waiting. If Changhai is the mother, then the snow-capped mountains in the distance are the mountain-like father. There is a magical pine and cypress on the edge of the viewing platform below the Changhai Sea. The branches grow in one direction, like an old housekeeper, silently welcoming guests from afar. The plank road from Changhai to Wucai Lake is the steepest section in Jiuzhaigou. At this time, my calf and right knee began to hurt. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve walked a lot these days, or because I’ve suffered from the wind and cold. This section is also a bit difficult. It’s hard Guo Feng's altitude sickness disappeared, and my knees started to have problems. Alas, the visual enjoyment still has to pay a little price.
From the Changhai Lake, you will arrive at the second essence of Jiuzhaigou - Wucai Pool. The Wucai Pond in Jiuzhaigou is different from the Wucai Pond in Huanglong. It has only one pool and is relatively small, but it has another color that other lakes do not have. In addition to the crystal-clear green, there is also a special fluorescent green. I don’t know whether it is the refraction of light or the unique minerals in the pool. This depth, shallowness, movement and stillness make the colorful pool a thrilling beauty. . Due to its small size, Haizi was surrounded by crowds and it was even more inaccessible. Finally, I took a full picture with the selfie artifact, and the photo was full of other people's mobile phone screens. It seems that everyone has the same aesthetics for Damei.
After coming out of Wucai Pool, I took a sightseeing bus and went out of the ditch directly. After arriving at the Nuorilang Visitor Center, it was already 3:30 in the afternoon. Since the tour guide agreed that the gathering time was 5:30, it was only two hours. There was no tour in Shuzhenggou towards the exit of the scenic spot, so there was no rest. On the sightseeing car. Fortunately, the essence of Jiuzhaigou has been deeply in my mind. I only stopped briefly at Rhino Sea, Spark Sea and Bonsai Beach on the way, and then I went out of the gate of the scenic spot. This time we came out earlier, and arrived in the car at five o'clock, and the sky in Jiuzhaigou had already begun to show signs of darkness. This day is really too tiring, but also tired and happy. Interestingly, the young couple sitting next to me got into an argument for some unknown reason. The woman seemed very angry. No matter how the man coaxed her, it was useless. The scene was a bit embarrassing, but I wanted to laugh a little. Before that, they could chatter from the moment they got in the car until they got off the car, but now Xian has stopped talking at all. I didn't pay too much attention, and fell asleep in a daze not long after getting in the car. When I opened my eyes, I found that there was no one in the car. Knowing that calmness is the solution to all problems, he still sat quietly in his seat. It wasn't until Guo Feng came to call me that I realized that it had been an hour since I got on the bus, and now it was one of the itineraries arranged by the tour guide—going to a Tibetan family's house as a guest. And all the people in the car had already got off, only I was sleeping, so I didn't feel the sound of the car stopping and the tour guide at all. I didn't know it was so noisy. I couldn't help admiring myself! But I was too tired, so I asked Guo Feng to go by himself, and stay in the car to rest, waiting for them to come back. In this way, they waited for an hour before they came back, and the day's trip was all over.
On the morning of the 27th, I still got up at 5:00 and set off at 6:30. Since today is the last day back to Chengdu, I can't help but feel a little bit sad. Although it was the last day, in the morning, I went to three shopping spots named Jie Minority Culture, a silver jewelry store, a specialty supermarket, and a silk product. However, although it has a commercial meaning, it still allows us to understand the customs and cultures of many ethnic minorities, which is another gain.
When I got out of the silver jewelry sales point and got into the car, I found that the young couple sitting next to me had reconciled as before, and they had returned to their usual chatter. There was a silver bracelet on the woman’s wrist. It's the best way to coax a woman! Departing from the Silk Culture Site of Chuanzhu Temple at 2:00 p.m., we started the 8-hour return trip. The bus first had to climb over a snow mountain with an altitude of about 4,200 meters before driving all the way out of the mountain. Today is daytime, so we can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the snow mountain at close range. Never give up, the blue sky and white clouds, the mountains are gradually receding from my eyes. The bus is still circling all the way up, and the Chuanzhu Temple at the foot of the mountain is getting farther and smaller. When the car reaches the highest point, look through the car window, and the snow-capped mountains in the distance appear naked in front of you. It is different from the high and untouchable snow-capped mountains that we saw a few times before, and now they appear in front of us. The snow-capped mountains can be described as being close at hand. This kind of shock caused by looking up is incomparable when looking up. I suddenly had the illusion that the car would break through the guardrail on the cliff and drive all the way to the snow-capped mountains. Are there any Bronze Gate and Zhang Qiling? The towering snow-capped mountains are so beautiful and spectacular! I didn't expect to enjoy such a beautiful scenery on the last day. In a word, it's worth it! It's a pity that I didn't have time to take pictures because I was in the car. After descending from the snow-capped mountains, the scenery began to return to plain, like the feeling of heaven and earth, and I was finally willing to sleep. The road out of the mountain has become extremely long because there is no expected support. Every time I fall asleep in a daze, it takes only a few minutes after I wake up. It may be that I have gotten used to this kind of driving way of swinging left and right in the past few days, so I don't want to talk about the details of the hard work along the way. After bumping like this for 6 hours, the feeling of the city gradually appeared outside the car, my God! We're finally out of the mountains! The bus stopped at Jinniuba Road on the Third Ring Road of Chengdu, and our tour with the group came to an end. Although the tour guide of our group had many shortcomings, especially the night of Guo Feng's altitude sickness, after all, he was also responsible during the process, so I am very grateful to her. After getting off the bus, I planned to take a taxi to the hotel I had booked. Unexpectedly, the road to the hotel was closed, so I had to re-book a hotel near the drop-off point. After checking in, it was past eleven o’clock in the evening, and I was so hungry. Way to eat a hamburger at the McDonald's next door, and didn't go to bed until 12:30 in the morning.
This sleep was so comfortable that when the alarm clock rang at seven o'clock the next morning, I thought I was dreaming. Because the last day's itinerary was to go to Chongqing, I bought a train ticket at 10:50 in the morning, so I didn't dare to sleep much, and hurried out after washing. Arrived at Chengdu East at 10:00 and picked up the ticket, looked back at the city of Chengdu, and plunged into the waiting room. I kept recalling the details of this trip on the bullet train, and I didn’t appreciate the scenery along the way. I arrived at the mountain city—Chongqing before I knew it. The name of the mountain city is really well-deserved. When you look out of the window in a taxi, you can see tall buildings like mountains everywhere. The road is rugged and narrow. It takes two steps to drive up a slope. The slope is not usually steep, even in the city center. You can see low hills, so the degree of greening is very high. Mountain city and mountain city, the mountain is in front and the city is behind. It is not that the mountain conforms to the development of the city, but the city adapts to the tenacity of the mountain. The taxi driver recommended a good noodle shop in Jiefangbei, Chongqing, and it is said that it was also on a lot of TV. Because it is relatively close to Hongya Cave, we stopped by to try the noodles of this restaurant. To be honest, it was okay. I don't know what's going on, but I have an inexplicable dislike for this city as soon as I get off the train. I don't have half the favor of Chengdu. Maybe it's because I feel that Chongqing people are relatively indifferent. After eating, I dragged my luggage and didn’t know where to go. It’s really not a wise choice to drag my suitcase to visit the scenic spots. People come and go, which is a bit embarrassing. So when I got to the gate of Hongya Cave, I decided to stay and look at my luggage instead of going in. Guo Feng was bored walking alone, and his body was a little uncomfortable, so he came out after a while.
As the previous taxi master said, because Chongqing Road is relatively narrow and there are many one-way streets, traffic jams are very serious during rush hours. In order to avoid traffic jams, we took a taxi to Beichuan Airport at four o'clock, and it was only five o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived at the airport. On the 8:30 plane, we spent the last three hours of our trip in a cafeteria. At 10:30 in the evening, the plane landed at Guangzhou Baiyun Airport, and our trip really came to an end.
There have been hardships and surprises along the way, but generally speaking, it is still very worthwhile. This walk-and-go trip started from Chengdu and ended in Chongqing. It not only allowed me to appreciate the uncanny craftsmanship of nature, but also made me feel the different characters of each city. wait a while. But regret is the driving force for the next time. For the beauty of Jiuzhaigou, even looking at it a thousand times is not enough. But next time, we must choose to fly directly to Jiuhuang Airport, so as not to suffer from the 8 hours of "displacement".
