How to get to Jiuzhaigou from Chengdu Jiuzhaigou Tourism Transportation Guide

Jiuzhaigou is actually not as beautiful as before after the earthquake, but overall Jiuzhaigou has recovered very well thanks to the work of nature. The editor prefers this beautiful Jiuzhaigou. Do you want to see it? Departing from Chengdu

Driving into Jiuzhaigou from Chengdu is the most common way at present. But what everyone doesn’t know is that the road from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou is the same as the Wenchuan earthquake. Landslides caused damage to the road at that time, so now it is a newly built road. The total length of this journey is about 500Km. The road conditions are good, but many of them are winding mountain roads. Friends who suffer from motion sickness must choose this route carefully.

Passenger transportation: 1. Chengdu Xinnanmen Station has shuttle buses to Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area at 6:30, 7:00, 7:30, 8:00, and 8:10 every day. The fare is 145 yuan/person. The journey time is about 10 hours, call 028-85433609

2. Chengdu Chazidian Bus Station has 3 direct flights to Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area before 8:40 every day, the journey time is about 10 hours, the fare is 120 yuan/person (The fare for buses in better condition is 170 yuan/person)

Chartered bus: The price of chartered bus from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou is between 1,200-1,500 yuan.

Self-driving: The important land transportation in Jiuzhaigou is the Nine Ring Road, with a total length of about 920 kilometers.

1. The western route of the Ninth Ring Road starts from Chengdu, passes through Dujiangyan, Wenchuan, Maoxian, Songpan and ends at Jiuzhaigou Valley, with a total distance of about 440 kilometers.

2. The Eastern Route of the Ninth Ring Road starts from Chengdu, passes through Mianyang, Jiangyou, Pingwu, and Jiuzhaigou counties to Jiuzhaigou Valley, with a total distance of about 480 kilometers. Departing from Mianyang or Guangyuan

As you can see from the map, there are Dujiangyan, Earthquake Relics Park, Shuimo Ancient Town, Ancient Qiang City, Mutuo and other scenic spots along the way. So although there are some twists and turns, the scenery is really good.

Mianyang, like Guangyuan, is entered from Sichuan. Although there are fewer well-known scenic spots along the way, the advantage is that the road is short. Departing from Jiuhuang Airport

Jiuhuang Airport is located in Chuanzhusi Town, Songpan County, Aba Prefecture, about 88 kilometers away from the mouth of Jiuzhaigou. The Jiuhuang Airport inquiry phone number is: 0837-7243770.

Passenger transport: 1.5 hours' drive, fare 45 yuan/person, but there are fewer flights.

Chartered car: The distance is about 88 kilometers and the fare is about 200 yuan. If you want to visit Huanglong first and then Jiuzhaigou Valley, the price of chartering the entire journey is about 500 yuan. Departure from Huanglong Scenic Area

Passenger transportation: There are shuttle buses from Huanglong Scenic Area to Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area at 7:00 and 7:30 every day. The fare is 45 yuan/person and the journey takes about 1 hour.

Flights Flights: The direct flights to Jiuzhaigou are as follows:

① From Beijing Capital International Airport to Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Airport: flight time is 2 hours and 50 minutes

② Guangzhou New Baiyun International Airport to—— Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Airport: Flight time 3 hours and 50 minutes

③Xi'an Xianyang International Airport-Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Airport: Flight time 55 minutes

④Shanghai Pudong International Airport-Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Airport: Flight time is 3 hours and 5 minutes

⑤Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport-Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Airport: flight time is 50 minutes

Depending on the time of the off-peak and peak tourist seasons, many domestic cities will impose restrictions on daily flights Flight schedules are adjusted. The peak tourist season in Jiuzhaigou is July, August, September and October. There are up to 10-20 flights a day in the peak season, with the earliest around 6 a.m. and the latest around 10 p.m. During the off-season, the number of flights will be relatively reduced. Generally, flights to Jiuzhaigou are operated by Sichuan Airlines, Air China, China Eastern Airlines, etc.

There are few discounts on air tickets: During the peak season, there are not many discounts on flights to Jiuzhaigou, and the discounts are not large. The short 50-minute flight from Chengdu to Jiuhuang Airport costs about one thousand yuan. So it’s okay to travel from a distance, but it’s actually quite uneconomical to fly from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou. Everyone should decide based on their own budget.

Delay problem: Due to the high altitude of Jiuzhaigou Huanglong Airport, there is often fog in the surrounding mountains, and the airflow is unstable, resulting in frequent flight delays. I have read some travel notes saying that the longest delay was more than a day, longer than taking a bus from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou. In some cases, the plane took off and returned halfway due to poor weather conditions. Therefore, if you buy a ticket, you must be mentally prepared for delays. You can buy delay insurance.

Jiuhuang Airport to Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong Scenic Area:

From Jiuhuang Airport, it is closer to Huanglong than to Jiuzhaigou. It takes about an hour to get to Huanglong by car and two hours to Jiuzhaigou.

There are civil aviation buses between Huanglong, Jiuzhaigou and Jiuhuang Airport. The fares are as follows:

One way from the airport to Jiuzhaigou (88 kilometers): 45 yuan, round trip: 80 yuan (one way) It takes about 1.5 to 2 hours) Huanglong Self-Driving

On the surface, Chengdu is about 400 kilometers away from Jiuzhaigou. However, due to the complex terrain around Sichuan and the mountainous roads are mostly winding roads, the drive still takes about 8 hours. . The scenery along the way is still very charming. Friends who want more freedom can choose to drive there by themselves or rent a car.

The nearest and most convenient route for self-driving is the Jiuzhaigou West Line: Chengdu---Dujiangyan---Wenchuan---Maoxian---Songpan Ancient City---Chuanzhu Temple---Jiuzhaigou, the whole journey About 420 kilometers or so. The entire journey from Chengdu to Wenchuan is an expressway, and the remaining sections are national highways. If you drive to Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong from December to March, be aware that there will be snow on the plateau roads. For safety, you need to prepare some iron chains to tie on the wheels to prevent them from slipping.

Reference on the cost of the whole journey: highway toll round trip: 100-120 yuan; gas fee: 800 (small car); rental cars usually have a dedicated driver, and the cost is generally: about 2,500 yuan starting from 3 days .

Tips:

Parking fees near Jiuzhaigou will be very high in the peak season. The single parking fee is 100 yuan, with no time limit but limited number of times.

Transportation from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong Highway

Chengdu has buses to Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong Scenic Area. Chengdu Chadianzi Station and Xinnanmen Station have fixed shuttle buses, which depart 1-3 times a day. The price is 150 yuan per trip, and the round trip costs about 300 yuan. There will be no stops along the way. Departing from Lanzhou

This is the farthest route. After the Wenchuan earthquake, the roads mentioned above were all broken. The backlog of tourists in Jiuzhaigou all took this road. Although the road is a little far, it is indeed the safest. Why do you say that? Because this is a grassland road. Along the way is a beautiful prairie with no mountains, and this road has been praised by many netizens as a tourist route full of beautiful scenery, a journey to purify the soul, a road back to Tibet, etc. What kind of road do you think this is? Look at the map below!

Now let’s focus on this road. Some people may wonder why we start from Lanzhou, because apart from the several routes into Sichuan just introduced in the five northwest provinces, this is the only one with both attractions and content. Some friends will definitely say that I can’t fly there? Tuhao, what I’m talking about here is the way to enter Jiuzhaigou by land.

Start from Lanzhou, enter Gannan via Linxia Hui Autonomous Prefecture, and go straight down the 319 National Highway, passing the world's largest Tibetan learning institution "Labrang Monastery". In Hehe City, the capital of Gannan Prefecture, Milareba Pagoda is right next to National Highway 319. Further down, Langmusi Town, one of China's top ten charming towns, has already shocked the world with its sky burial platform and the source of Bailong River. Continuing to travel south, you will see the Garden of Eden "Zhagana" praised highly by Locke Road and the most beautiful wetlands in China "Gahai and Huahu".

Next you will enter Ruoergai County. On the less than 200 kilometers from the county to Jiuzhaigou, the virgin forests along the way will make you feel relaxed and happy. If you have more time, then take a short detour of dozens of kilometers, from Ruoergai County to Chuanzhu Temple, as well as the "Talin" in Waqie and the "Moon Bay" in Hongyuan, which are both very beautiful.

What are the advantages of departing from Lanzhou?

1. Air ticket price advantage

Lanzhou air tickets are relatively cheap, including Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou:

< p>2. Rich content of the itinerary

As mentioned before, the scenic spots along this route are richer than those in Chengdu. This route is the Gannan plus Jiuzhaigou route. The itinerary includes most of the scenic spots in Gannan, and each scenic spot is familiar and has a certain degree of popularity. I would like to recommend a few for your reference: Labrang Monastery, Milareba Pavilion, Zhaga Na, Langmusi, Huahu, Eighteen Bays of the Yellow River, etc.

3. The road conditions are the best

Although other routes are shorter in terms of kilometers, the road conditions are more complicated, and most of them are winding mountain roads.

Especially around Wenchuan, this section of road has been rebuilt many times. However, although it is nearly 300 kilometers longer from Lanzhou, the entire highway from Lanzhou to Hehe City has the largest number of mosques on this road, reaching 256 per square kilometer, so it is also called It is called the National Customs Road. It is a national highway from Hehe City to Langmusi. After leaving Langmusi, you pass through Rierlang Mountain and you will see an endless prairie. The scenery along the way is beautiful. This section is also called the grassland road. There are no mountains, no ridges, and no ditches. The road conditions are stable, whether you are driving by yourself or with a group, you are relaxed and have no visual fatigue! Bus

Chengdu Xinnanmen Station departs daily to Jiuzhaigou Mioukou; Chengdu Chadianzi Station departs daily to Dujiangyan and Jiuzhaigou County . The fare is about 140 yuan. If you don't want to go out and wait for the bus at the station, you can also choose another "door-to-door" bus. This free-travel bus is cost-effective and includes pick-up and drop-off. It is very convenient to go to Jiuzhaigou without worrying about traffic problems.

Intercity EMU

Chengdu has intercity EMUs leading to Dujiangyan, Qingcheng Mountain and Lidui Park. After arriving in Dujiangyan, you can transfer to a local bus or carpool to continue to Songpan and Jiuzhaigou. Self-driving

Chengjiu Expressway, Chengwen Expressway and Sichuan-Kowloon Expressway are the main roads. If you want to know the specific itinerary, you can read the next section. It usually takes at least 3 days to drive to Jiuzhaigou to see the scenic spots by plane

Tourists can take a plane to Jiuhuang Airport and then transfer Take the airport bus or taxi to Huanglong Scenic Area.

Jiuhuang Airport. Jiuhuang Airport is about 50 kilometers away from Huanglong Scenic Area, about an hour's drive. There are nearly 20 flights every day from Chengdu Shuangliu Airport to Jiuhuang Airport, and the flight time is about 40 minutes. There are slightly fewer flights from Chongqing Jiangbei Airport to Jiuhuang Airport. There are several flights every day and the flight time is about one hour. However, the air tickets are generally about 200 yuan lower than the former.

Many cities have now opened direct flights to Jiuzhaigou Jiuhuang Airport. The flight from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou takes about 60 minutes. The one-way ticket price is 1,540 yuan per person, and discounts are rare. It is worth noting that Jiuhuang Airport is still 88km away from the entrance of Jiuzhaigou and 55km away from Huanglong Scenic Area. Therefore, after arriving at Jiuhuang Airport, you still need to take a bus to Jiuzhaigou or Huanglong (it takes about 1.5 hours to Jiuzhaigou and about 1 hour to Huanglong).

However, because the take-off and landing conditions at Jiuhuang Airport are relatively harsh, planes are prone to delays or flight cancellations. At the same time, because most of the passengers coming by plane are group tourists, it often takes 2-3 hours to collect the number of individual passengers on several flights before departure. It is recommended to call to check whether the airport bus is operating normally before taking off (0837 -7243770). You can also call a taxi temporarily at the airport (the cost is about 300 yuan).

Air tickets are relatively expensive for round-trip flights. I would like to recommend you a luxury bus product. The seats are large and very comfortable. No matter how long the journey takes, you don’t have to worry at all!

Get there by plane. The flight time from Jiuhuang Airport is about an hour, but as everyone knows, the price of the plane is still relatively expensive. I need to remind everyone that there is still a long distance from the airport to the entrance of Jiuzhaigou, and it is also a long distance to the Huanglong Scenic Area. Therefore, after getting off the plane, you need to drive for more than an hour to reach the scenic spot.

And because of the special reasons of Jiuhuang Airport, the conditions for aircraft takeoff and landing are very high. Therefore, the aircraft is more likely to be delayed or unable to land due to environmental, geographical, weather and other reasons, and can only return to the departure point. Therefore, Friends who want to take a flight should be mentally prepared and it is recommended to consult relevant matters in advance. Chartered car

03. When taking a group tour, the price varies depending on the nature of the group. It is recommended to choose a pure entertainment group. Although the price is higher than the economic group, quality group, etc., it will not enter Tibetan and Qiang villages. Not only does it save time as a shopping spot, but it also provides relatively guaranteed food and accommodation.

04. By airplane, Chengdu and some other cities have opened routes to Jiuhuang Airport, and the price is relatively high. The flight time is about 1 hour from Chengdu, and the one-way ticket price is 1,540 yuan/person, which is almost No discounts.

Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area is located in Jiuzhaigou County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture. It has Jiuhuang Airport and is more than 400 kilometers away from Chengdu.

The consultation hotline of Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area Bus Station is: 0837-7739900, address (pick-up and drop-off location): In the courtyard of Jiutong Sunshine Hotel in the east of Jiuzhaigou Pass.

If you don’t want to waste time by taking a bus, you can consider chartering a car. For less than 4 people, you can rent a 5-seater car, and the cost is about 600-800 yuan/day (including tolls and gas); for more than 4 people, but less than 8 people, it is recommended to rent a 7-11-seat Ruifeng commercial vehicle, and the cost is about The price is 1,200-1,600 yuan/day (including tolls and gas expenses); if there are more than 8 people, you should consider the 17-seat Transit bus, which costs 1,800-2,200 yuan/day (including tolls and gas expenses). It should be noted that for all chartered services, you are responsible for the driver's food and lodging along the way, or you must agree with the driver in advance how much food and lodging will be subsidized to the driver each day. Traveling in a group

This is the easiest and most direct way to travel to Jiuzhaigou. You don’t need to think about how to play or where to stay. The travel agency will arrange everything for you in advance. At present, Jiuzhaigou group tours are divided into three-day tours and four-day tours. The difference between the two is that due to limited time, the three-day tour will only arrange the two main attractions of Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong; while the four-day tour will only arrange the two main attractions of Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong. In addition to the scenic spots, there will also be some ancillary scenic spots along the way, such as: Panda Paradise or grassland and other routes.

If we want to distinguish based on the quality of the team, it can be roughly divided into:

Economic group (between 500 yuan and 700 yuan):

This type of team During the tour, in addition to shopping stores (souvenir shops, silk shops, Tibetan medicine or silver jewelry shops) that will be arranged throughout the tour, you need to purchase items such as the Zangjia sheep roasting activity or song and dance performances separately from the tour guide.

Quality tour (between 800 yuan and 1,100 yuan):

Shopping stores will be arranged on the way, but meals and accommodation conditions are absolutely guaranteed, especially Chinese food, general meals The bid will not be less than 25 yuan per person, and there will basically be 1-2 special meals arranged. Self-funded projects will give away at least one of them (the one with the highest chance of giving away should be the Zangjia Roast Lamb Activity. You can check with the customer service or salesperson before signing up).

Pure play group (between 900 yuan and 1,400 yuan):

Speaking of pure play group, it is necessary to teach everyone how to distinguish true pure play from fake pure play. The simplest The way is to see if there are special Qiang and Tibetan villages in the itinerary. If you want to go to these two places, it means that this is a fake tour. If it is clearly stated in the itinerary that Tibetan and Qiang villages are not to be visited, it means that it is purely fun.

When it comes to choosing pure play, everyone also needs to pay attention to the price. This is also an area where many people misunderstand. They think that pure play must mean good food and good housing. In fact, pure play does not mean high-end, it just means that there will be no shopping malls to waste your time during your visit. If you want to stay in a better hotel, please take the initiative to choose a team that meets the product quality and price.

There are generally many types of tour groups, one is pure fun group, and there are also deluxe group, standard group, ordinary group and special price group. The price difference is quite large, and people who don’t understand can easily be fooled. They may look the same but they are different when they go out. Please consult the travel agency before departure.

Joining a tour group is a relatively hassle-free option, because the tour bus will pick you up from your hotel in the morning and take you to Huanglong, Jiuzhaigou.

Carpooling from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong

Carpooling from Chengdu is also a relatively free and cost-effective way to go to Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong. Free travel carpooling includes fare, hotel, and sometimes tickets. The fare can be shared equally. If you book the hotel price through a travel agency, there will be a certain discount. If the ticket price is not obvious, you can buy it yourself. The carpool bus will stop at scenic spots along the way, leaving plenty of time for everyone to take photos and enjoy the scenery. There will be a driving assistant on the car. If you have any questions, you can ask the assistant at any time.

The one-way cost of independent carpooling is about 100 yuan, and the three-day round-trip fare plus 2 nights of accommodation is about 400 yuan. Of course, the price varies with the accommodation level or the off-peak and peak seasons.

One way from the airport to Huanglong (43 kilometers): 22 yuan, round trip: 40 yuan (one way takes about 1 hour)

Huanglong Airport, peak season (April-November) every There are about 10 daily flights, and about 4 daily car flights in the off-season (December to March of the following year)

Fatigue level: Taking a car to Jiuzhaigou requires courage and is quite tiring. If the road conditions are good, it takes eight hours It can be reached within. If there is a traffic jam or something like that, it will be nowhere in sight. Due to the rugged mountain roads in the Sichuan Basin (commonly known as the "difficult Sichuan Road"), many sections of the mountain roads have eighteen bends, so driving will be very slow. The people at the station said it can be reached in eight hours, but be prepared to take the bus for ten hours or more.

Buy bus tickets: There are two bus stations in Chengdu that can go to Jiuzhaigou.

One is the Jiuzhaigou Tourist Line sold at Xinnanmen Bus Station, which ends at the mouth of Jiuzhaigou Valley, and the ticket price is 141 yuan; the other is Chadianzi Bus Station, but the shuttle bus only goes to Jiuzhaigou County, and the ticket price is 112 yuan. . Accommodation in the county seat of Jiuzhaigou is cheaper than Mizokou and the conditions are better. However, the county seat is 39km away from the scenic spot, so you can only take a taxi to get there. The pre-sale period for the bus is 3 days. If you go during the peak season, it is strongly recommended to purchase tickets in advance. But you don’t have to worry too much about not being able to buy tickets. If there are too many tourists in the peak season, Xinnanmen will drive a 6-seater off-road vehicle with a ticket price of 222 yuan. This type of vehicle is called a luxury vehicle and the seats will be wider. The time to the destination will also be shorter.

Recommended ticket purchase route: If the booked accommodation is in Mizokou of the scenic spot, go to Xinnanmen and take the bus; if the booked accommodation is in the county town, go to Chadianzi Bus Station and take the bus. I prefer Xinnanmen because Mizoguchi is much more convenient to stay in. Although the conditions are not particularly good, it is closer to the scenic spot and the scenery is better.

Tips:

As a reminder, if you visit Jiuzhaigou first and then Huanglong, you should also pay attention to buying tickets. I saw someone say before that they couldn't go to Huanglong because they didn't buy a ticket. This is because the shuttle bus from Jiuzhaigou to Huanglong only runs a few times a day, and it will be gone if it's sold out. So when you first arrive at your accommodation, you can ask the hotel to help you book tickets. It is also best to ask in advance when booking accommodation. Although there is no guarantee that you will be able to book a ticket, if you are unable to book a ticket, you will be refunded. Therefore, it is best to finalize the transportation to Huanglong as soon as you arrive at the accommodation. The ticket from Jiuzhaigou to Huanglong is 54.5 yuan/person, and the insurance is 3 yuan/person. In order not to affect the schedule, the earliest bus I bought seemed to be at 7:30.

If you only go to Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area when going to Jiuzhaigou, it will be a big loss. Starting from Chengdu, go all the way north and enter the Northern Sichuan Plateau. Along the way, from the beauty of the plains to the roughness of the plateau, and from the Han culture to the mysterious Tibetan and Qiang culture, the scenery along the way is absolutely not to be missed. This is the benefit of taking a car.

1. Long-distance Passenger Terminal Bus

Both Chengdu Chadianzi Station and Xinnanmen Station have buses to Jiuzhaigou. They leave every day and the journey time is about 10 hours.

Generally, there are three departures from Chadianzi Station every day, the departure times are: 7:40, 8:40 and 10:00, and the fare is 157 yuan (one way); Xinnanmen Station has one departure every day. The departure time is: 8:00 (there are two types of tickets, one-way and round-trip, 141 yuan for one-way and 268 yuan for round-trip).

2. Direct tourist bus

There is a direct bus to Jiuzhaigou scenic spots in Kuanzhai Alley. Along the way, it stops at Yingxiu Town, the site of the 5.12 earthquake, Diexi Haizi, Songpan Ancient City and other scenic spots. There is a free guide service, and you can also ask the staff about travel matters without entering the shopping store.

The following are recommended bus through-train products. There are one-way and round-trip services from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou. Choose freely and DIY your itinerary~

Take the shuttle bus at Chengdu Chadianzi Tourist Terminal It can go directly to Jiuzhaigou, with four departures every day. You need to order tickets 1 day in advance. Tickets can be purchased at the long-distance bus self-service vending machines in major Hongqi supermarkets in Chengdu, or through the Sichuan Bus Ticketing Network, which is very convenient.

If you go to Jiuzhaigou and you go straight to Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area to pick it up, you will have wasted the long drive. Starting from Chengdu and entering the plateau, there are many beautiful scenery along the way. Not only the scenery along the way, but also the different Tibetan and Qiang culture. This is the advantage of taking a car.
