Jiuzhaigou Travel Guide

Transportation Tips: After visiting Huanglong, head to the bus parking lot to take the shuttle bus to Jiuzhaigou. The fare is 62 RMB per person, and the bus departs once it's full. I boarded the bus at around 5 PM, and the journey from Huanglong to Jiuzhaigou takes about 2 hours. I had booked a hotel near Moon Bay in Jiuzhaigou, so I got off at the Moon Bay stop. The hotel is about 1 km from the scenic area entrance. There are many accommodations, restaurants, and supermarkets around Moon Bay, making it a convenient area for visitors. Must-Visit Attractions: Arrow Bamboo Lake, Pearl Shoal, Nuorilang Waterfall, Shuzheng Waterfall, and Shuzheng Lakes. Must-Try Food: Yak Yogurt, priced at 10 RMB per box, with a rich and creamy flavor. The Jiuzhaigou scenic area is explored using shuttle buses. The last stop is the Primeval Forest, but I found it unimpressive and think it can be skipped to save time. Arrow Bamboo Lake, Pearl Shoal, Nuorilang Waterfall, Shuzheng Waterfall, and Shuzheng Lakes are all stunning and should not be missed. The Five-Color Pond is small and crowded. While its colors are beautiful, it reminded me of a swimming pool.
