Jiuzhaigou's Autumn is in my memory forever deep impression of the brilliant. May be due to the then state of mind, and happens to the season, and doomed to a lifetime I will use my time to aftertaste.
Following Travels I have been published in July, it had been some people praise before, but I still want to re-paste it again, not for points, but in order to allow more people to share my joy has been and will always have.
Notes on trip to Jiuzhaigou
October 28 we have a line of four (two men and two women) take Zhejiang Airlines flights to Chengdu, Sichuan Province, arrived after the arrival Chemical Design Institute Guest House (Temple of Marquis Street, traffic near hostel), 30 yuan / person double earth, independent bathroom, electric water heater. To lay down their luggage after the second day at the new south gate of the station to buy tickets to the Jiuzhaigou tourist. Because of higher oil prices, the fare adjustment of 93 yuan / person. Look at the time still early, first went to Du Fu's Thatched Cottage Qingyang Gong, and a walk, and so find our friends in Chengdu, we were the thatched cottage tea tea cards. Night in Chengdu, a friend led to eat snacks, first prefect Street, "Bell dumplings" (2 RMB / bowl, value, taste wonders), and then along the Chunxi Road all the way to go all the way to eat, to the "Dragon抄手" to eat copies of snack packages (Long抄手, bell dumplings, glass dumpling, Lai glutinous rice balls, and dan-dan noodles, etc.) 10 yuan / person, tastes so-so. Journey in the procurement of a bit of food and supplies to use later, went straight to "half a dozen Pi Jiuguan" experience Chengdu nightlife. 10:30 Back to the hostel late break.
October 29 to get up as early as 0630, at the new south gate of the station take the bus to Jiuzhaigou 0800, car is a Yangzhou Yaxing, 29, fine. 0900 to Dujiangyan, followed by Su-Min river, on the way, at noon and about 10 kilometers away from Maoxian parking places to eat two dishes, soup, 32 RMB, about 1300 to Maoxian, 1400 Diexi Lake parking around to the convenience of around 1600 to the Songpan, 1630 or so to the Chuanzhusi, around 1645, only stopping to visit the scenic spots along the Na Mi Temple. 1730 or so back on the road to arrive at 1915, Mizoguchi. We have about 200 meters away from the Mizoguchi, a small hotel stay there (unfortunately, can not remember the name, and just remember that it was Mizoguchi fork in the road east, sheep and Tong Mountain Hotel, Guest House has passed less than the power of the place), was originally 100 yuan / Inter-standard rooms, only the fourth floor the day the last two, giving us 150 2. Dinner in the hotel restaurant to eat, 70 yuan three dishes and one soup, at 20 o'clock to 23 o'clock hot water supply, you can bathe.
October 30 to get up as early as 0700, 0800 or so to a friend of Mizoguchi outlet mall on the second floor next to breakfast, did not expect that only the Qiang-style dumplings, 4 yuan / bowl, is not so satisfactory. Tickets are 205 yuan (including environmentally friendly cars, non-residential), insurance 3 yuan. Ride in the Connaught Center on Long Station along the search wow ditch about 300 meters upstream to reach the check the first one wow Walled accommodation point, 35 yuan / person in double room, hot water to go downstairs to the Tibetan people's house Eurya, because the night temperatures are close to zero, so I do not have a bath do not care. Put down your luggage proceed directly to the first environmentally friendly vehicles by virgin forest on the ditch. The timing of this trip is too good to be contrary to our expectations, deep autumn, thin clouds, snow-capped mountains, color forest, clear water, blue sky exist side by side. Scenic wonders along the way, especially in the sea water mirror reflected upside the hill Choi Lam, simply could not use words to describe. In the past, the plan is to first virgin forest and then all the way down, so do not stop halfway, did not expect that this trip has become one of the few regrets. Virgin forest near the sword is only one rock attraction, and since late autumn day nearly reasons, hanging spring has become difficult to identify, let alone take pictures. We are all the way down from the forests by Grass Sea to swan sea, scenery all came good. In the Swan the sea and other environmental cars are waiting for a long time, mainly because there is no meal at noon virgin forest area where all people go to central station or several of the stockade, where a meal. To Jian Zhuhai off and continue along the road to walk to Xiongmao Hai, traded Plank Road. Run Xiong Maohai Falls is a waterfall on the first, it is not flattered by such a scene everywhere south. Wu Huahai very beautiful, the water can not imagine showing a blue, and two in the afternoon, especially under the dazzling sunlight. Jinling the sea is very tranquil, underwater there are many dead trees of varying posture is very primitive. Pearl Beach and Pearl Beach are spectacular waterfalls, only around three in the afternoon sun is too strong, and there is no way to拍出好照片. From the Pearl Beach Waterfall return to the road, found that point of view from the highway on both sides of Cailin is too beautiful to think of the morning through the mirror when the wonderful feeling of the sea, they hastily rush in the past. Unfortunately, 16:00 is not a big mirror sea wind disturbed the quiet, we have waited for a while, find it hard to get back the feeling of the morning of echocardiography is unlikely possibility, and coupled with a day's walk began to hit the road to burnout years, we have decided to come back the next day fill. Sea car to Connaught in the mirror on Long Falls, silly in the central station out of the car, dragged his exhausted legs went Connaught Day Long Falls, and then walked back to the search wow Walled accommodation places. Back to the room when he felt that a person is tired Buhang Le. Stay up to 5:30 then check wow Village restaurant to eat dinner, actually only if we wave of people, we asked the price, 20 yuan / person, and another four to four dishes and one soup, because there is no other guests, it's easy to win again into a plate of vegetables for free. We have to buy two bottles of highland barley wine, and vegetables to do well, cold yak meat are particularly good, although the reason is because we have a mouthful of water and soil is a bubble, or it could not resist a few chopsticks underground lot. In fact, the people there is still very Chun-liang, as if a number of posts in-line description of "Badlands out of trouble-making people," the scene that we have not come across one. Estimated to have with us the time to go is not about people, etc. so a lot of people like flies in front of you when no one may be a good mood to deal with the. Back to the room at night when the blanket was found in bed, just a decoration, point for a long time that the temperature did not, four of us brought two sleeping bags and, therefore, what sub-sub-bed, sleep in sleeping bags out of the contribution will be quilts, leave a thin blanket and a bedspread, and accept another one blanket. Facts have proved that is a wrong decision, sleeping two quilt (like me) hot Buxing Le, sleeping in a sleeping bag for cold nights had no warming up.
October 31 morning, wash with hot water as usual to get up to go downstairs to fetch the Tibetans at home, because few people's sake, hot water is very ample, so we washed her face in comfort. Car starting to go a long sea or in the Central Station take the green car, we are pleased to run into the general situation does not get visitors - out shortly after the car broke down. We are out of the car, at the roadside waiting for central station sent empty, 10 minutes later, came two small green car. As originally outside of the car is a person in addition to our tour, we enjoyed a chartered and justly treated. Small group of Tibetan children on board tour guides have been pestering us to sing a few songs the first possession, we have been asked to sing a few songs Jiangnan minor, and pop music, laughter along the way enjoying themselves. After the arrival Changhai, in addition to an altitude of 2900 meters maximum Haizi Jiuzhaigou, the most attractive to us is to take pictures with the Tibetan people pull the white yak. A very rare white yak is said, sell about a 10000. We spent five dollars a person, in the long beach left a video will, those Tibetans still warm invitation to shoot a few more that we have paid over the money anyway, getting more value the more, let's really a bit embarrassed . Wucaiche car down to get off and found about 50 meters under the highway Wucaiche about places, down to the side of the pool is not a difficult task, can be a step up, many people have three gasp. We walked along the Wucaiche half circle, has not found particularly suitable place to take pictures, I do not know the reasons because of the time is still crowded chaos of the scene, in short, there is no legend in the gorgeous thorough. Back to Central Station from the Wucaiche already 11 o'clock, and we hastily rushed to the mirror sea, did not expect that micro-waves is always Hing, only Xing Xingran return. Back to the hostel, the simple and ate something, back packing and we left. Ride through the sea rhinoceros, tigers sea, to the tree is waterfall, we went hiking backpack water mill, tree is group of the sea, in the tree is out of the ditch on the train Walled, Wolong sea reed sea, beach bonsai did not get off . In general, all the attractions seem to be looking from south to north, to be beautiful, because of the strong sunlight, backlighting photos very difficult to have good shot. Mizoguchi is a 1:30 arrival, we plan to go to Huanglong. Because there is no direct train, we only chartered to go. In the night of arrival Jiuzhai once had a driver to solicit our business, that is the lowest 300 yuan to Huanglong, Chang'an facet. Mizoguchi has a Xiali asking price 300, and we do not suspect had no place to put luggage; a surprisingly open to Chang'an facet 600, really wanted to kill him; another Santana reported that 400 vehicles, we are still with him 300, he would not (In fact, we do not care about a few of money, in the past on the Internet to see StrategiesChinaInc Chang small pieces must be generally 350, is only a few drivers, because that attitude is not good, there is actually a lie we have to go Snow Dragon it can not). We see the time, too early, on the edge of a small Taner sit down and eat something baked potatoes. Do not know whether they are a lucky hit with Santana promised 300 to go, so we are in the accident at the same time has quite a sense of accomplishment. The roads in the Huanglong passed after Chuanzhusi has been climbing, road conditions are not very good, it is often on both sides of the rubble collapses. The scenery along the way there are not far from Kamiyama - Xuebaoding Heart and parking so that we stop. In turn the said to have a place 4,300 meters above sea level, after a few minutes down 10 to Huanglong. The entire journey took two and a half hours, by Chang-facet certainly be slower. Huanglong only two somewhere to stay, one is Searle lofty, the other is the Hualong hotels, we are living in Searle lofty, 100 yuan / Inter-standard rooms (color television with satellite TV, electric cup, electric blanket, but not with a bathroom) . The fact that we choose not to take the bathroom has become a wise move. Jiuzhaigou Huanglong lower than the temperature, water pipes all the frozen, no water available, wash water must go to help desk (waiter picked from the outside to the water, limited). Searle lofty evening opposite the one called "Chongqing Hotel" of the snack bar to eat dinner, the four dishes and a soup, because I lost last night, playing cards, so the meal count on me, probably more than 80 pieces.
November 1st to get up the morning of 0700, thought to have some water, wash desk, but the attendant refused to open the door and ignore us when life and death. The girls last night, leaving a basin of water, we are not so lucky, and can only use a wet paper towel will. Starting the morning at eight o'clock from the residence, after Hualong see the boiler room when the hotel is like smoking, may Hualong condition is better. To Huanglong is the door, a look at fares, season 80 yuan, 50 yuan off-season, today is the first day of off-season, but also earned. Tickets door, sparsely populated, and because the sun has not come out, particularly in cold water along the way are all frozen, even the Sands diffuse to no exception. Huanglong's roads are built of wood in the water next to the Plank Road, maintenance level of fine. Run into the middle section of the road because of icy waterways, water diffuse large in again on the ice, scuttling up the ice really cost us a lot of time. Wait until the climb in Huanglong Temple, be considered to see the ray of sunshine from the mountain disclosed to the cracks. To the Huanglong Temple and colorful Yao Chi was already ten more. After viewing platform colorful Jade Pool, there are two, short one is pictures of the place, and that a few high people go, but also because Yao Chi side of the branches of a tree branch twig's sake, always some sense of the landscape was evil, But in any case the physical conditions allow there is no reason not to get on. The Plank Road in the Jade Pool, on the road can be more close to that of water, but the water always leaves have become more and feel water not so pure a sight to behold. After all, the summer tourist season is the golden Dragon Well. Go down when the visitors gradually found more than up, and the staff to work, the toilet began to open the door charge. The more visitors down the more oxygen pillow holding up many of the people, let's pride began to ripple up. Welcome down to the pools and found nearly noon, the ice has been largely of bare. Back to the Searle has been a lofty 12:00 pm, the waiter let us pay half the cost increases, we are justifiably say that we went out that no one on duty, otherwise we would certainly check out the morning. Attendant is not embarrassed us, and we remove the luggage, out to dinner. A few days ago at noon due to not being eaten by the children of Pakistani rice, but there is also spiced dishes too much, we chose to eat rice porridge, and then bought on the roadside, where four Tibetan barley cakes, and 4 money. To Searle asked about lofty restaurant, there is no rice porridge, had decided to let him fry vegetable dish, and then cook a bowl of soup, restaurant seems to specialize in group meals, and did not give us a good face, and close 40 of our money, too dark. Searle lofty after dinner in the lobby, etc. to Songpan from Pingwu shuttle, a day after about two Huanglong, fares 20 yuan / person. Car 1 that we saw, but have just sold us that the Tibetan barley cake, uncle, or burst into the lobby to inform us that really make us very grateful. And other drivers finished in the meal, cars hit the road. Two and a half hours later, our car stopped at the station outside the east gate of the Songpan-ri. Wang Chengli walk from the east gate, we are carrying luggage look like a small town with the sight of Songpan together really at odds. Sure enough, there is no out of the 200 meters, they were locked in, that person is has quite a reputation for Yang Fu, Shun Jiang Colts manager. To be honest, first I really did not bring him as a good man, though had heard about it a "Good Guide with a Bad Eye", but the reality seems to not trust some people more than expected. Young is very enthusiastic to introduce us to stay, City View Hotel (County Government House) and the Song state restaurants, of course, there are cheaper. We live in City View, 80 standard rooms, separate bathrooms have hot water for bathing, not bad, but if the toilet is not so. Re-think the original had seen someone else's Travels medium shot edge of the room is 150 yuan, can not help Pidianpidian up. Stay there after the boss's office to the Young turn a moment the famous "Shun Jiang Colts" and "happy trails" are at the roadside outside the north is very simple, a table, and a few stools, and is full of the walls Photos and maps of the. We had only intended to stay in the Songpan day, but also in the issue of whether the horse would have had their differences, women are life and death do not agree with sleeping outside, so problems will not simple, we chose to collapse cliffs-day tour, flew into paid a 60 yuan / person of cavalry charges, starting tomorrow morning, 9:00. Dinner at the downtown intersection of the Dragon Hotel restaurant food, four dishes and one soup 57 per issue. Back to the hotel at night washed a hot bath, I am satisfied to sleep.
November 2nd to get up early in the morning to go to the toilet in public toilets outside of the cold Xiren toilet situation also makes chilling. After washing, first go back to Chengdu, the East Gate station to buy tickets, pay the ticket actually found is 41 yuan / Zhang. Q. What is the car, gave the answer Yangzhou Yaxing; ask why so cheap the fare, gave the answer did not receive any price adjustment notice. Nine o'clock, wizards, and Mount Colts have come, one horse, one a wizard, and instantly became a big Colts, mighty way through a village outside the town began a one-day journey. We are marching to the line begins with the same Munigou, climbed over a hill after the split of the. To tell the truth, at the beginning the feeling of riding a horse is not particularly good, one not familiar with horses, I do not know how to control, and second, take the edge is the slope of the Road children, on horseback, more terror than to walk. So little adapted to the kind of Fong Ma, after a while, under the blue sky beyond the feeling of all, with the elevation, the sky seems to be increasingly close, Meng back to the mountains was found immersed in a fog Oi has been among the radius of tens of miles, Only then a cavalry leisurely forward, feeling really great. Cliffs collapse does not provide any specific landscape, but also perhaps too much was I met with the beauty of both paralysis. Approaching the time for lunch at noon, because there is no water near the cliffs collapse, so still a while to go down. Riding down the mountain guide said no, then walk in front of horses, we have followed. For those of us who grew up in Zhejiang province's mountains and rivers of people, that part of mountain is also nothing but a little muddy a bit, if for a bunch of people on the plains, I am afraid impression deepens. Anyway, after we arrived at camp, there were already those who wish to lay down a. We watched the wizard who put horses, firewood, fire, dough, cooking, and soon the fragrant patch in front of us, and we enjoy this life a very memorable cuisine - in fact it is only a pot of cabbage and gnocchi . Finished, the downhill, and is said to smooth some of the road ahead, we can also be launched by. Launched again, feeling as if is already a veteran, and even competing to make their throne Sahuan ran a few steps. In fact, the mountains come down even more horrible than the next one about 45-degree slope, Mount marched "Dressage", I would like to sit on horseback but the people do not jockey chic and cool. The final section of the road is to walk on the road, Ma Tie Zhang reasons due to hit all day, slipping, but fortunately after a day going through so they are no longer a small problem for us to interfere with any. We safely returned to Songpan, and dismounted, after, or suffer from aching joints with the two legs of the guide say goodbye, limped back to the hotel. Dinner is still used in the old place, and 68 yuan. About 20 o'clock a sudden power failure, and it is the city blackout, I walk along the street in front of horses found to be a transformer on fire road, so we have a toss in the Songpan spent a dark night (fortunately, the boiler fuel, hot water as usual supply). Incidentally, there's the stars that I can remember 20-odd years have not had a picture, including a small child in the countryside, and the recent two to Europe.
November 3 to get up early morning dark (not dark there is no way, no electricity) to the east gate of the station by car back to Chengdu. To the station only to find when the car is not to Yangzhou Yaxing, but God Hebei deer, condition is worse some, in fact, that is, an ordinary long-distance vehicles, our two boys have to a large bag on the roof. Said one day then a bus back to Chengdu, so there nothing to say. 0600 Songpan starting from the car packed to squeeze a few numbers of 50 people, a little overcrowded. In the way of the "Tibetan Plateau" high-pitched singing, the driver seems to be eating enough of the stimulant, and always stepping on the accelerator did not loose too hard, as included in the Maoxian's cliff-like mountain on a long list of more than 90-degree turn, are engaged in I have been around for almost two girls working out that Yijingyizha neurasthenia. To when the car driver was once described as a foreigner "crazy", go back to this train of this estimate should be "hysterical" the. Maoxian county at noon on side-street parking restaurant to eat a little more time before 10:30, and we also follow our traditional habits of Chile Dun "breakfast", Siwan porridge plus three dumplings (steamed buns a Cap'n Tingda ), a dish of pickled vegetables on the forward and their own belt a bag of cabbage, spent a total of seven money. In Dujiangyan, when approaching a half-hour block of the car, finally Daizhe chance rotten window ventilation (windows, when driving can you freeze to death). Am ashamed to say I smoked it for nearly a decade who was surprised to be the vehicle predecessors taught a harsh one, this time I finally know that addicted smokers is not so casually. After more and more people to get off Dujiangyan, finally, no one sitting in covered tanks, and otherwise the police missed Uncle trouble. The driver found a fellow with the car with the money we received each one, saying it was taking highway, the result was breaking the speed of vehicles on the highway is even worse than it is in the mountain on the thrust of life and death can not go 70 km, make my reverence arises spontaneously. About 2:30 pm finally arrived in Chengdu are safe. Back before has given way to a good friend in Chengdu centers in a three-star hotel, 165 yuan / rooms, to properly enjoy, and which is to Huangchenglaoma unrestrained manner Cuoyi Dun.
November 4th get out of bed the morning, 8 o'clock they opened the door to the KFC, the most luxurious ever eaten a breakfast. Then back to the hotel check-out, playing the car to the airport. Jump table shows that 48, the driver told me the money upon receipt of a 10 return tolls, I do not know whether it is arbitrary charges, anyway, think also brisk walking, and not worthwhile with people upside down, and the money to pay the 10 . 16:00, we re-embarked on a Jianqiao airport concrete, surprised the crowd in exports in the eyes of the end of our run-length
