This may be different from the Jiuzhaigou you imagined, and it is also different from the Jiuzhaigou I imagined. This trip to Jiuzhaigou is not just Jiuzhaigou of Jiuzhaigou. Look at the water, turn around the mountains, and have an unexpected encounter with the local Tibetan and Qiang aborigines at the place where the eagle landed.


This is the first time I have come to Jiuzhaigou, and I heard the famous saying early on: When you return to Huangshan, you don’t look at the mountains, and when you return to Jiuzhaigou, you don’t look at the water. However, this trip to Jiuzhaigou once in my life made me realize not only the water of Jiuzhaigou, but also the mountains, the people and the Tibetan and Qiang customs.


about traffic

Now from Chongqing, Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou, in addition to the plane, you can only drive or take the bus. This time I went from Chongqing to Jiuzhaigou, I chose to take the high-speed rail from Chongqing to Guangyuan, about 114 yuan +/person, and it took about 3 hours to arrive. Then, after getting off at Guangyuan Station, you can walk 300 meters directly to Guangyuan Bus Station, and take a bus to Jiuzhaigou, 106 yuan/person, and it will take about 6 hours to arrive. This is the most time-saving and convenient way to choose ground travel.


You can also choose to take a bullet train from Chongqing to Chengdu. It will take about 9 or 10 hours from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou, and it really takes a day. Therefore, the bus from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou usually departs at around 8:30 in the morning. It means that if I take the high-speed train from Chongqing to Chengdu, I have to sit at about six o'clock at the earliest to transfer smoothly. Not to mention more expensive, but also harder.

Anyway, I look forward to the day when the Jiuzhaigou high-speed rail opens soon.

Accommodation - Hotel Indigo Jiuzhaigou

Hotel Indigo Jiuzhaigou is really a low-key luxury five-star hotel.


The hotel's iconic gradient purple commercial vehicle is parked at the entrance of the hotel.


Each Indigo hotel is designed with local characteristics at its core. Hotel Indigo Jiuzhai features the most representative "condor" in Zhongchagou, where the hotel is located, as the key point of decoration, such as the wall decoration in the lobby and the door handles in each room.


Zhongchagou, which means "the place where the eagle lands" in Tibetan, is the place where the "Dele" family was led to settle by the eagle. It is a holy land of geomantic omen. According to legend, the mount of King Gesar, the hero of the Tibetan people, is a huge condor, soaring into the sky and patrolling the universe. Only the Baijian mountain god here can carry the condor to land and rest, hence the name . Therefore, Hotel Indigo uses the "Condor" as the main line of inspiration, and the design of the Condor element can be seen at the gate, the background of the front desk, the elevator entrance of the floor, and the door of the guest room.


In addition to the eagle, the design of every corner of the hotel has absorbed the design elements of Xiangba, Qiang embroidery, yak, fire pond and other unique Tibetan life art forms.


Although it has a very Tibetan style, it does not lose the modern design. What is national is the world, and the integration is just right here.


CCD, a well-known design company in Hong Kong, personally worked on it, deeply cultivated the history and culture of Zhongchagou, and built a long-lost "Dele mansion".


The design elements of the unique local Tibetan life art form are widely used, including stone walls, plank houses, fire ponds, eagles, water in the Immortal Pond, Amdo Tibetans, prayer wheels, Tibetan Eight Treasures, yak bells, Qiang embroidery, unique Totems or decorations such as wooden ladders, prayer flags, stars, pulu cloth bags and harvest themes, interpret the neighborhood stories and Amdo culture with the theme of "zang (zang) · Tibetan (cang)".



There is a firepit in the middle of the lobby, which highlights the rich Tibetan-style residential features and implants Tibetan-style daily life culture.


On the wall of the Jiuhuan Bar in the lobby, there is a large-scale condor artwork, which looks as blue as the water of Jiuzhaihaizi from a distance, but it "freezes" countless memories of Dele Mansion when you look closely.



The Book Pavilion is based on the rich colors of traditional thangkas, and the decoration follows the fine patterns of the "Dele Mansion". Search for the spiritual pure land of "one flower, one world, one leaf, one bodhi" in the sea of ​​books.


The entire Hotel Indigo Jiuzhai has 200 guest rooms and suites. The details of the rooms can be seen in the traditional fabric embroidery of the Qiang nationality and the unique Thangka painting form of the Aba Tibetan. What belongs to the nation is what belongs to the world. The design of the bedside background wall in the guest room is mainly decorated with Tibetan and Qiang clothing totems, with unique patterns and rich colors. The design full of ethnic culture brings a different visual impact.


The check-in area is divided into Buildings 1 and 2, connected by an inner bridge.


The tones of the guest rooms are based on white and beige, which are simple and modern, but also incorporate local color and texture decorations, reflecting a sense of luxury everywhere. Even the tea sets are very Tibetan and Qiang style.



The bathing space has dry and wet separation, toiletries, toiletry boxes, soap pads, etc. are also designed with a strong Tibetan and Qiang style, and the bathrobes embellished with Tibetan and Qiang ethnic patterns are also very attractive.



The hotel also has a spiral staircase with a unique shape, suitable for taking pictures.


The suites in the hotel are 200 square meters, and the price is around 3,000 yuan, which is really cost-effective.


The tall floor-to-ceiling glass in the guest room can overlook the snow-capped mountains and forests, and truly realize the room with a view.






We enjoyed the buffet breakfast and the special yak soup pot at the restaurant of the hotel.


Located on the first floor of the hotel, the neighborhood all-day buffet restaurant "You·Tibet" is decorated with the golden "harvest" color as the keynote, cleverly combining Tibetan aristocratic rituals with British manor culture.


Yak yogurt is really delicious!


Yak bone soup is paired with chili dipping sauce, supplemented with Tibetan pig and free-range chicken, and the copper pot soup and stone pot soup are made to nourish the stomach and satisfy the stomach.


Because the hotel is located on a plateau and is limited by logistics, the chef team of the restaurant selects local ingredients, integrates Tibetan and Qiang food culture, and provides buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner set meals, and Tibetan hot pot. Guests can taste Tibetan snacks and fine wines such as buttered tea, and Tibetan hot pot with local characteristics. They can also order Western-style light meals such as pasta and fried rice, and taste the delicious taste exclusive to Jiuzhaigou.



The breakfast buffet is really rich.








The hotel is also equipped with a gym.


Hotel Indigo Jiuzhaigou is located at the core of Jiuzhai Luneng Meilihui Town, within walking distance to Luneng Town, where there is the Tibetan and Qiang Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum. The hotel itself cooperates with the Tibetan and Qiang Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum, and free reservations are available for visits.

Zhongchagou - the back garden of Jiuzhaigou

The local people said that they took their wedding photos in Chagou, Jiuzhaigou.


ZhongChagou is located in Zhangzha Town of the county, just one mountain away from Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area. It is a canyon about 10 kilometers long and 3.5 kilometers wide. Extremely rich animal and plant resources. There is an ancient white temple here. Tibetan people have admired white since ancient times, because white symbolizes sincere and pure wishes, and it is the performance of whiteness and flawlessness. Colorful prayer flags spread from the top of the tower.


Zhongchagou is really beautiful, not only surrounded by clouds and mists, surrounded by green hills, spreading meadows, connected villages, flocks of cattle and sheep, and gradually dyeing the forest... There are also ancient Tibetan villages with mysterious Tibetan folk customs and cultural resources. Distinctive.


"Zhongcha", transliterated from Tibetan transliteration, should have been "Qioncha". "Qiong" means "Condor Eagle", and "Qia" means "support, bearing", that is, "the place where the Condor Eagle lands". Legend has it that King Gesar's mount is a huge condor, soaring into the sky and patrolling the universe, but he can't find a place to rest. Only the Baijian mountain god here can carry the condor. As a result, the condor was able to land and rest, and this place was named after it, and then the sound shook the snowy area.


When you come to Zhongchagou, you must ride a horse. Experience the "caravan culture" that has lasted for thousands of years in Chinese history. Zhongchagou is also an ancient heritage site of caravan culture.



You can ride a horse to the middle of the mountain and take a perfect photo with the top of the snow mountain.


Here is also known as "Little Switzerland". The top of the mountain is covered with snow all the year round, lush and green, with flocks of cattle and sheep, and the ecology is very perfect.


Our set of Tibetan and Qiang traditional costumes is rented from one of the shops in Luneng Meilihui, Jiuzhaigou. It's pretty nice.



Then, you can let the locals take you to take pictures on the slopes and snow-capped mountains on horseback, which is really beautiful.



The local citizens in Zhongchagou are relatively simple and enthusiastic.



At the beginning, there were no Tibetans living in Zhongchagou. It was the ancient Tubo Tibetan royal family named "Dele" family. Discovered this hidden and fertile valley under the people, and settled here for hundreds of years. The "Dele" family, who are good at breeding horses, are the current Amdo Tibetans. Their ancestors brought a profound and unique Tibetan culture to Zhongchagou.


There are snow peaks, forests and streams in Zhongchagou all the year round. The houses here have the style of northern Sichuan houses, as well as old and simple Tibetan villages.


Zhongchagou is about 10 kilometers long, with an average altitude of more than 2,000 meters. At the end of the valley, there are continuous snow peaks and beautiful scenery.


White towers, red houses, ancient and quiet stop here.


Blue sky and white clouds, herds of cattle and horses, and simple Tibetans. Riding up the mountain is the small grassland on the hillside in the picture below. Local Tibetans lead us up the mountain with horses.


Zhongchagou and Jiuzhaigou are separated by a mountain, and the locals also call it "Little Jiuzhaigou". These are the homes of Tibetans.


If time permits, you can go to the local Tibetans in Zhongchagou to drink authentic butter tea and eat alpine potatoes, which are really delicious.


Butter tea started with tea cheese, ghee, and sugar packed in teacups separately.


Pour the hot tea into the cup, stir it and drink it first, it is sweet and rich, then continue to pour the tea and continue stirring until it is completely dissolved.


The Tibetan family is also very beautiful. I like this color combination very much. It is gorgeous but not tacky, and the patterns are regular and traditional.






The corridors and doors at the entrance are hand-drawn.



Accommodation—Jiuzhai Forest Earth Warehouse

In Zhongchagou, there is a Jiuzhai Forest Earth Warehouse, a container hotel located on a hillside. The rooms are scattered on the hillside, blending with the forest.


Although it is a container on the hillside, the room is of five-star standard and service. The hotel's location in Zhongchagou is the best place to view the snow-capped mountains.


Jiuzhai Forest Earth Warehouse is located on the No. 1 platform of Zhongchagou, Luneng Town, Zhangzha Town, Jiuzhaigou County. It is only one mountain away from Jiuzhaigou and less than 8 kilometers away from the mouth of the valley.


Jiuzhai Forest Earth Warehouse Hotel has more than 20 different independent landscape suites, including 23 guest rooms, and one room is the same style as Liu Tao and his wife.


It’s really like sleeping in the forest. When you wake up, your eyes are full of green. The scenery is great. It’s completely different from the general hotel accommodation experience. It’s worth experiencing.


Sleeping between the tops of forests and seas, it is integrated with Cangshan, Xuefeng and colorful forests.


In winter, you can stay in a warm room and watch the snow through the large floor-to-ceiling windows. Just thinking about it is beautiful!


Looking at the scenery directly through the glass window is like looking at a beautiful landscape painting. When I wake up in the morning, surrounded by clouds and fog, I can vaguely see the snow-capped mountains on the top of the opposite mountain. With the mountains and forests as the scenery and the clouds and mists as the screen, I sleep in the forest at an altitude of more than 2,500 meters.


Fully intelligent facilities, the experience is excellent, there will be automatically played music as soon as you enter the door, the taste is very good, it is a selection of various music that makes you feel comfortable, such as jazz. Evian's water, Dahongpao tea, bathing, etc. are all five-star hotel standards... Opening the curtain is an immersive natural environment.


In addition to the toiletries, there are two makeup remover sheets and two facial masks.


There are humidifiers and bluetooth speakers in the room.



Alone in a quiet place, backed by Cangshan Mountain, looking at the high mountains in the distance. There are container-style houses one by one, with large glass floor-to-ceiling windows and terraces. When you open the curtains in the morning, you can see the snow-capped mountains in the distance. There is also a pick-up service for Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area, which needs to be booked in advance.



Although the breakfast is simple, it is also very homely food, which is very good. This night's stay experience, I think it is very good.




Jiuzhai Luneng Resort not only includes hotel clusters, but all hotel clusters are built around the commercial street of Luneng Meilihui.


The street gathers Tibetan blankets, Tibetan paper, Tibetan incense, Tibetan pottery, pile embroidery and other intangible cultural heritage products of Rangtang. Here, you can get a glimpse of the unique Tibetan culture and experience the charm of intangible cultural heritage projects.


At the same time, it can also meet the entertainment and leisure needs of eating, drinking, playing and watching movies. We basically settle here for lunch, dinner and coffee in the afternoon, and it is not an exaggeration to bring together delicacies from all over the world.


Jiuzhai Lunenghui also has "man embroidered Tibetan paper" and Tibetan incense shop "Shilun Xiang". You can try the production of Tibetan paper and Tibetan incense yourself, and experience the inheritance of these crafts in depth.

Jiuzhai Luneng Resort Eat at Jiuzhai Luneng Resort——Hard Rock Cafe Jiuzhaigou

When I went shopping, I found that this store is very American. As expected, this store has a lot of background. I also never expected that there would be such a chain restaurant in Jiuzhaigou.

In 1971, two young Americans, Isaac Taglett and Peter Morton, opened the first Hard Rock Cafe in London.

Stroll - Jiuzhai Tibetan and Qiang Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum

The best way to learn about a city is to visit its local museums. Just at the entrance of Jiuzhai Luneng Meilihui is the Jiuzhai Tibetan and Qiang Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum.


The entire exhibition hall is very helpful for understanding the culture and history of the entire Tibetan and Qiang people.


You can ask the guide to lead the talk and listen, which is more interesting.




Tibetan and Qiang weaving embroidery is the collective name of "Tibetan weaving, cross-stitch embroidery" and "Qiang embroidery". It includes the embroidery skills of the two ethnic groups of Tibetan and Qiang. Vivid and vivid, the cultural heritage that is most closely related to the life of the Tibetan and Qiang people and can best communicate with today's society has strong national characteristics and distinctive regional characteristics, and is known as the "Pearl of Tibetan and Qiang Art".


Tibetan and Qiang Embroidery, Exhibition of Tibetan Weaving Skills and Qiang Embroidery Skills


There is an area dedicated to the history of Tibetan medicine. Tibetan medicine is a unique medical system formed through long-term practice on the basis of widely absorbing and integrating theories of traditional Chinese medicine, Indian medicine and Dashi medicine. It has a history of thousands of years. It is a relatively complete and One of the more influential ethnic medicines.


"Sibu Medical Classics" is the earliest surviving Tibetan medical monograph. It is said that the book was written by Jebu Chixi (Tibetan version), the son of Xinrao Miwo, the founder of Yongzhongben Sect, and was completed in 1999 BC.




This is the treasure of the town hall: colored sand mandala. The painting of colored sand mandala originated from the traditional art of Tashilhunpo Monastery in Shigatse, Tibet Autonomous Region, China, and is one of the national intangible cultural heritages. Mandala originated from Indian Tantric Buddhism, and is one of the objects of worship in Tibetan Buddhist Tantric practice. It is piled up with colorful sand particles according to strict proportion, structure, content, etc. After the outline is drawn on the pedestal, it starts from the center, alternates with squares and circles, and gradually spreads to the periphery. In addition to sand building, mandala also has different production methods such as hand-painting and wood carving.


This mandala, which is made of gemstones and ground into powder, is really beautiful. It took several months and it is so huge that it is really shocking.



Thangka, also known as cloth painting, is a unique art work in Tibet. It can be created in various artistic techniques such as color painting, embroidery, and piled damask. Color paintings use mineral and plant pigments, mixed with animal glue, ox gall, etc., to keep the color bright and not fade for a long time.

Play - Greenland No. 7 Paradise

Green No. 7 Paradise, located on the mountain behind the Hilton Hotel, on the No. 1 platform of Zhongcha Village, an outdoor adventure park under the snow mountain, suitable for both adults and children.


Now the package ticket is 88 yuan per person for adults and 58 yuan per person for children. There are a total of three altitude platforms in the whole area, with the theme of primitive scenery and natural exploration, creating a noble and private exploration experience integrated with nature.


Here I finally achieved my "bungee jumping" small goal, although only the "mini" short-distance version.


The entire park includes 12 experience sub-items, such as forestry projects, rope climbing, outreach sports, alpine crossing exploration, high-altitude delta wings, ziplines and other multiple ways of playing.







The all-terrain off-road motorcycle costs 100 yuan for 2 laps, 128 yuan for a single seat 2 laps, and 168 yuan for a double seat 2 laps.


Play - Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area

Now that we have all come to Jiuzhaigou, the core scenic spots must still be visited. After all, this is the first time I have come to Jiuzhaigou, and I have come here. This kind of psychological effect is very powerful, although I have seen various beautiful photos of Jiuzhaigou scenic spot on countless lines. Jiuzhaigou is mainly composed of Zawagou, Rizegou, and Shuzhenggou, which form a Y-shaped itinerary. The virgin forest, Wuhuahai, and Pearl Beach Waterfall inside are all must-see itineraries.


Before entering the scenic spot, you must do a nucleic acid test within 48 hours. We did the nucleic acid test at the local hospital in Jiuzhaigou one day in advance. Now Jiuzhaigou tickets are 280 yuan, including the transfer bus in the scenic area. That is, if you are not a special group, such as children, the elderly, the disabled and other special occupations, then the ticket must be purchased at the full price including the scenic spot transportation vehicle: 280 yuan. Only these special groups are eligible to pay only 90 yuan for the transportation car, and the tickets are free.


The transportation vehicles in Jiuzhaigou have stops for every necessary scenic spot, anyway, you can come and get on at any time.


The scenic spots probably include virgin forest, grass sea, swan sea, arrow bamboo sea, panda sea, panda sea waterfall, five flower sea, pearl beach, pearl beach waterfall, mirror sea, nuorilang central station, long sea, colorful pool, nuorilang Waterfall, Rhino Sea, Tiger Sea, Shuzheng Waterfall, Shuzheng Mill, Shuzheng Qunhai, Shuzheng Folk Culture Village, Wolong Sea, Spark Sea, Bonsai Beach.


As for whether to go to each scenic spot, it varies from person to person. Anyway, we didn't go to the virgin forest, because it was on the most mountain, and we had to walk a lot. I came to Jiuzhaigou just to see the water.


Jiuzhaigou is a world natural heritage, a national key scenic spot, a national AAAAA-level tourist attraction, a national nature reserve, a national geological park, and a network of world biosphere reserves. It is also the first nature reserve in China whose main purpose is to protect natural scenery.


Although we encountered cloudy days when we went to Jiuzhaigou, the water in Jiuzhaigou is really beautiful. The blue is pure and the blue is translucent.


If you want to go to the virgin forest, it is estimated that you have to go early in the morning to ensure that the classic scenic spots can be seen one by one and come out in the afternoon. If you don't go to the virgin forest, half a day is actually enough.


There are really no places to eat in Jiuzhaigou scenic area. Only beverages, snacks, dry food and instant noodles sold in canteens and vending machines.
