Which is better to travel in September?

1. Lijiang: The best time to travel. Everyone has different opinions. You can go when you want what kind of scenery you want. However, although September and October are the peak tourist seasons, and even though we are in Lijiang, a popular tourist destination, Lijiang in September is still not to be missed. Even in the bustling city, walking around the ancient city is still simple, elegant and leisurely.

Clothing: carry-on items - short-sleeved T-shirts, sweaters, jackets, sunscreen, and rain gear. In Lijiang, especially during the rainy season, don’t forget to bring a jacket. If it’s a summer sweater, you don’t need it. But sunscreen is a must. The altitude of Lijiang is higher than that of Dali, so don’t underestimate the ultraviolet rays there. I once put on sunscreen and was completely black after being exposed to the sun for a day.

Food: Personally, I feel that the food in Lijiang Old Town is not as good as that in Dali and Kunming. This is probably because many things in the ancient town have become internationalized, with various Western restaurants, cafes, and pizzerias popping up in endlessly. If it must be considered a specialty snack, it would be chickpea jelly and Lijiang Baba.

2. Jiuzhaigou: Autumn is the most brilliant season in Jiuzhaigou, with colorful red leaves and colorful forests reflected in the bright lake water. Colorful fallen flowers float in the lake. The distant clear sky is blue and clear, and the most beautiful scenery created by nature fills the eyes. Walking into Jiuzhaigou in early autumn, not only the temperature and climate are suitable, but you can also see the autumn scenery.

In the autumn of Jiuzhaigou, the mountains and plains are filled with brilliant purples and reds. The fiery red maple leaves, the leaves of cotinus, the lush green pines, and the brilliant poplar trees are bathed in a golden and dark green. The crimson relief rations are crystal clear. The barberry fruit is like a string of eye-catching agates, inlaid on a colorful tapestry. The mountains, rivers, clouds and sky complement each other, weaving into an intoxicating golden autumn picture.
