Why do tourists praise the scenery of Jiuzhaigou Valley that can only be found in the sky?

The fifth day, this is the focus of this tour, it is the fairy tale world in the hearts of many people. In all travel magazines and publications, Jiuzhaigou Valley is recommended as a must-visit place. If a travel magazine does not mention Jiuzhaigou once in a year, then the magazine will definitely go out of business.

The name Jiuzhaigou comes from the fact that there were originally nine Tibetan villages in the ditch. I made the plan to go to Jiuzhaigou three years ago, but it never happened. It stands to reason that I should be excited that the long-awaited journey is about to begin, but to be honest, I am not at all. Instead, I treat it with a relatively calm attitude. "Once upon a time, everything was difficult for water, except for Wushan, it was not clouds." Sometimes it is not a good thing to see too much. When the world is turbulent and the vicissitudes of life have seen enough, you will no longer be able to find your way forward. Lowering your requirements should be a good way to adjust your mentality, because I know deeply: the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Jiuzhaigou Valley is located in Jiuzhaigou County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture in northwest Sichuan. It is located in the southern section of the Minshan Mountains, with an altitude of 2,000-4,300 meters. The green sea, cascading waterfalls, snow-capped peaks, colorful forests and Tibetan customs form the "Five Wonders of Jiuzhaigou". In 1984, Jiuzhaigou Valley was officially opened to the outside world and is now a national nature reserve. It was included in the "World Natural and Cultural Heritage List" and the world's "Man and the Biosphere" protection network by UNESCO. Water is the soul of Jiuzhaigou, and there is a saying that "when you come back from Jiuzhaigou, you don't look at the water."

Jiuzhai was finally in sight. At the gate, I saw a sea of ??people and a long queue of scenic sightseeing buses, which were no different from scenic spots elsewhere. The sightseeing car was driving on the flat scenic road. As the tour guide in Tibetan clothing gave an emotionless and professional introduction, the magic of Jiuzhaigou gradually began to appear with its unique charm. People came to us from time to time and exclaimed. Like one sound, one sound louder than the other, emerald green, azure blue, dark green, navy blue, bright yellow... I can't tell what the color is, how many layers the color has, I can only see it changing constantly. Like a dream.

At this time, the sky was high and the clouds were clear, the wind was clear and the sun was bright, and the level was like a mirror. The people in the car began to calm down. They must have been infected by such beautiful mountains and water. They can only calm down and Only then can we truly integrate with nature and enjoy the magic of natural creations.

The end point of the bus is the long sea in Zhawa Valley. It is the largest sea in Jiuzhaigou, with an altitude of more than 3,100 meters. It is also the source of all seas in Jiuzhaigou. It is surrounded by mountains and surrounded by dense green. Under the dotted white clouds, the blue water is clear, and the long sea looks so quiet, peaceful, leisurely and free, like a dream, and intoxicated. The narrow strip of green is as pure, transparent, bright and dazzling as emerald. People say that Jiangnan is good, and the pearls from Jiangnan look pale here. They also say that Xinjiang is beautiful, but the jade from Hotan will also be eclipsed at this moment.

If you give all your praises to Chang Hai, you will regret it.

When I arrived at Wucai Pond, the colorful pool was already surrounded by crowds. The Wucai Pond is oval in shape, with an average depth of about two meters, which is about one acre in size. The bottom is covered with pebbles of various sizes. The part of the mountain reflected in the pool water shows different colors such as emerald blue, tender green, goose yellow, etc. depending on the depth of the water and the algae in the water. Where the skylight is reflected, it is a dazzling blue. As I walked on the boardwalk, the pool of water changed endlessly, becoming softer and calmer. The pool of water was like a Tingting girl, just sitting there quietly, even though she was covered with a veil. , but still reveals youth and vitality, making you want to escape but unable to escape.

I have always boasted that my photography skills are good, but now I find that the small camera cannot carry the stunning beauty. No matter which angle you take pictures from, you will regret it. You can only take small pictures. It is too small to capture the whole picture, because the beauty is the overall beauty of Jiuzhai landscape, the beauty of the blue sky and white clouds nurtured by the sunshine on the plateau, and the rich and elegant beauty of Jiuzhai landscape. I took the photos and deleted them, and deleted them again. , the only thing that can and should be done may be to take a few more glances.

After that, we saw the upper and lower seasonal seas along the way. Since it was summer, there was only a little water left in these two seas, but they still retained the charm of Jiuzhaigou.

There is only one restaurant in Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area, which is Nuorilang Buffet Restaurant. It is located at the intersection of the Y-shaped scenic area and can accommodate thousands of people dining at the same time. It is neat, beautiful and clean. It's just that during the peak season, it's completely expected that it will be overcrowded and there will be a rush for food.

After dinner, Yang Wenzhong, Yao Jiulong and I quickly rushed to Nuorilang Waterfall. It is the widest waterfall in Jiuzhaigou, more than 100 meters long, and the rumbling water can be heard from a distance. The waterfall is hidden in the dense forest. It is easy to find it by following the sound of the water. The waterfall more than ten meters high lies straight across there like a wall. According to reports, it is 250 meters wide, clear and rapid. The water rushes down from the calcified cliff, and there are many trees on it. There are some thick tree trunks lying here and there under the cliff. The areas where the water touches the water are covered with a layer of yellow calcification. I think these tree trunks must have been here for more than decades. Bar. After the huge water rushed down, it passed through the green jungle and disappeared into the dense forest.

Except for its scale, Nuorilang Waterfall left a deep impression on me, and there was nothing else about it. It’s no wonder that the tour guide didn’t recommend this place, so the three of us were probably the only ones on this trip to Jiuzhaigou. People who have seen Nuorilang Falls with their own eyes.

The afternoon was basically free time. Hongxia and I took some teachers up to Rizegou. At the end of the bus, they went to visit the virgin forest. Hongxia and I followed the plank road because they didn’t come because we had been waiting for a long time. We went down, the scenery was picturesque, there were no other tourists, it was so quiet that only the gurgling water was left. The green moss under the towering trees was wet and as thick as velvet. The wooden plank road wound through the forest, and there were always overflowing waves. The water flows overwhelmingly through the forest, flowing freely across the dead branches and leaves, spreading out and letting go...

Trees grow in water, and water flows in the forest. Why are those incredibly beautiful paintings so spread out here, that fairy tale-like world, why are they all gathered here? Could it be that the flower fairy dropped her lover's pearl, and her natural beauty is jealous of others?

After that, we passed through Caohai, Swan Sea, and Panda Sea, and watched the Pandahai Waterfall with the largest drop in Jiuzhaigou. Passing through Jianzhu Sea, we came to Wuhua Sea, which is the most exciting attraction in Jiuzhaigou. of. What is printed on the ticket to Jiuzhaigou Valley is the Sea of ??Five Flowers. Under the influence of sunlight, it turns into colorful colors, which are interspersed with the underwater sunken trees and plants. It is so beautiful that it is called the Sea of ??Five Flowers. The people of Jiuzhaigou say: The Wuhua Sea is a sacred pond. Wherever its water is sprinkled, flowers and forests will flourish, and it will be beautiful and rich.

Finally arrived at Pearl Beach. Pearl Beach is a relatively wide stone beach among the many lakes in Jiuzhaigou. The water flows down the slope. The calcification deposited over the years turns the entire slope into a golden color, like a golden beach. When the water flows from When rushing down the slope, due to the uneven slope and the obstruction of trees, the water splashes are like pearls, jumping non-stop and shining in the sun.

The wide and tall water curtain suddenly fell from the green and golden steep slopes, and quickly fell to the bottom of the valley to form a waterfall, causing a deafening wave of water and droplets. It is said that part of the exterior scenes of the TV series "Journey to the West" were filmed here.

I just felt that I couldn’t see enough and appreciate it enough. Until the sunset, I still lingered and didn’t want to go back. However, due to time constraints, we had to start walking out. The next attraction was Shuzheng Waterfall.

The scenery of Shuzheng Sea and Shuzheng Waterfall is also unique. The Shuzheng Waterfall above suddenly surges out from the dense bushes, and the torrents converge into a light blue river that runs through the scattered bushes. It rushes away in different directions, wider and narrower, and sprinkles behind it. A string of large and small blue sea seeds.

The Sea of ????Mirrors was formed by the legendary goddess "Semo" accidentally breaking the mirror in her hand and falling into pieces. The Sea of ????Mirrors is the most delicate piece of these fragments, because of its geographical location Due to its location, Jinghai is calmer than other lakes. The sky, mountains and underwater scenery are integrated into one, creating a wonderful scene of "fish swimming in the sky and birds flying in the water". There is also a "tree wrapped with thick vines" by the Mirror Sea, which reminds people of "love". Unfortunately, I don't have time to look for the tree wrapped with vines that symbolizes "love".

I only took a few photos of Sparkling Sea and Bonsai Beach before leaving. In the car, I saw two sapphire-blue jade ribbon-like streams on the Reed Beach winding through the reeds.

The evening program was to watch the performance of the Black Yak Tibetan and Qiang Art Troupe. The atmosphere was very lively. They drank highland barley wine, wore snow-white hadas, danced the cheerful Guozhuang dance, and Lao Chen participated in the Tibetan "Son-in-law Selection" "Activity, I wanted to win back a beautiful Tibetan girl, but unfortunately I couldn't do it and my success fell short. The most special one is the traditional costume performance of the Tibetan and Qiang people, which is also the climax of the party. The Tibetan and Qiang ethnic customs made everyone spend a pleasant night.

On the sixth day, we set off from Jiuzhaigou and stopped for a while via Songzhou, which was said to be the place where Songtsen Gampo married Princess Wencheng. At nearly ten o'clock, we finally arrived at Huanglong Scenic Area. Huanglong, known as the "Jade Pool on Earth", is located in Songpan County, 400 kilometers away from Chengdu. Huanglong also has three world-class laurels as a world natural heritage, a world biosphere reserve, and a world-class scenic tourist area certified by the "Green Globe 21". The main attractions are all above 3,000 meters above sea level, with colorful pools, snow-capped mountains, It is famous for its unique landscapes such as canyons, forests, rock peaks and lakes.

We need to pass through a mountain pass on the way. The tour guide said that the altitude is more than 4,000 meters, maybe, but something is missing in my feeling. The natural hypoxia problem is exaggerated to be extremely terrifying, so the oxygen bottle brought by the tour guide It was quickly sold out at a price of 30 yuan per bottle. In order to dispel everyone's worries about being beheaded, the tour guide announced that if it is no longer useful, you can withdraw. As we approached the mountain pass, the tour guide said: "Be careful, altitude sickness is very severe and can cause..., for safety's sake, everyone open the bottle quickly and listen to my command. I say one, two, three, and breathe in as hard as you can." All ten oxygen bottles were opened, and the tour guide smiled slightly and said: "Very good, after all, we are all teachers, now..."

We just arrived in Huanglong, and the weather was unfavorable. It started to rain lightly. It was cold on the plateau, and the car also made several turns while climbing the mountain. Some comrades became dizzy after taking in the oxygen. Fortunately, there are free oxygen bars on the roadside. You only need to pay one yuan for a straw, and you can take unlimited amounts of oxygen at a time. enough. But many people with oxygen bottles became even more dizzy when they saw the good news.

With the crowded flow of people, the true form of Huanglong began to appear.

These colorful pools are dazzling, exquisite and have different shapes. Being among them makes people feel like they are in a fairyland on earth. Therefore, Huanglong is also vividly praised as "the fairyland on earth".

Some calcification ponds have become muddy ponds due to water flow diversion or damage to scenic area construction. The tourists are bustling and crowded, and it is as lively as going to a market. Every place where you can take photos is fiercely fought for. Where can you enjoy it leisurely? In order to get to Maoxian County for accommodation, the tour guide only gave us 3 hours of sightseeing time. What was supposed to be a walking tour turned into a hurried mountain climbing competition. Everyone was chasing after each other for fear of falling behind and losing time. Running on a high mountain with thin air at an altitude of 3,500 meters is not as easy as on flat ground. There are many people who feel dizzy. In addition, the tour guide exaggerated and misled about altitude sickness. Many people were too frightened to react before reacting.
