Four beauties from Shanghai have fun in Chengdu in May—Guidelines for returning from a free trip to Jiuzhaigou Valley

Me, my sister-in-law, and my sister. My mother. 4 beauties. 4 different thoughts. The only time we unanimously decided to travel to Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan was when my sister was still in college and was about to enter the society this June. She was admitted to be a flight attendant in CA, but she still has to go through a series of on-the-job training before she can be finally confirmed. However, the family has already started celebrating for my sister. To be honest, our family's genes are really weird. My parents are both no taller than 1.7 meters, and I am only 1.58 meters tall. My sister is actually 1.75 meters tall. It's a miracle. In fact, my ex-boyfriend is currently studying in Sichuan for graduate school and has stayed there for almost 2 years. It is said that he will stay in Chengdu in the future and has a relatively good impression of Chengdu. In the past, under his guidance, I also had a very good impression of Chengdu. Good impression. Although I broke up with him, Chengdu and I are like people who fell in love for the first time, even though we were basically in Chengdu. I did it three times, big and small, but the feeling was very different each time. It feels more casual. It would be great if my sister also flies this route to Chengdu in the future.

No need to talk nonsense. Let’s get to the point.

My sister is an idiot. She can’t find anything on the Internet other than SHOPING on Taobao. I guess the others will just steal food. My mother can't be counted on, she only knows how to steal food, but I am too busy at work, and I am not allowed to browse the web or open QQ at work. I can only log in to MSN, and I can't even open the vegetables on the farm. I guess that's why I'm looking for a man in Chengdu. It's a very casual city, not as tense as Shanghai. At least you won't be restricted from opening web pages when you're at work. You'll see so many people sitting in teahouses on the streets and alleys in Chengdu. Old. Big ones. There are small ones and small ones. Their attitude towards life is really something we should learn from. They are always so leisurely and comfortable. Although they have experienced earthquakes and many hardships that are unknown to us, what I want to say is that tragedies of jumping from buildings are happening everywhere now. There is not a single case in Chengdu. Is it worth thinking about? . .

My sister-in-law is responsible for the planning of this trip to Jiuzhaigou. My sister-in-law and her uncle have been divorced for more than two years. During this period, she had many good relationships with men, but she basically had a good prelude and no results, so she has been living with us. She sold several houses left by her uncle, and she became a veritable little sister-in-law. Rich woman, she is living a good life now, but her grandma needs someone to take care of her at home. As a result, the old lady was selected as a volunteer at the Expo. Pretty good too. This gave us the opportunity to travel this time. My sister-in-law is a top computer student at Fudan University and is very familiar with the Internet. My sister-in-law printed at least 50 Sichuan travel guides for us. Among them, 20 pages are about food in Chengdu. I actually chuckled. Just ask my boyfriend. It also takes a lot of effort to find a place to eat. Ten pages are about shopping in Chengdu, 15 pages are about Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area Guide, and 5 pages are about travel agencies in Chengdu. I laughed at my sister-in-law and said she was quite attentive. It would be a waste of talent not to ask her to do the census work. Over the weekend, we announced that we would go on a self-guided trip to Jiuzhaigou this time and not join any group tours. Although Sichuan’s tourism resources are good, for my sister who has traveled to many countries, she no longer has much hope in travel agencies. In fact, everyone knows that we Shanghainese are more careful. Pay more attention to details. After comparing many itineraries, my sister-in-law. Decided to choose Sichuan Free Travel Old Luggage route. There are many good reviews online. Facts have proved that our choice this time was right. Then I will give you a guide for actually visiting Sichuan. I hope it will be of reference to you

Chengdu City Center Commercial Street:

Someone once said that you can hear the laughter and mahjong sounds of Chengdu people on the plane. At first I thought I thought it was because people in Chengdu have loud voices, but when I arrived in Chengdu, I realized it was because there were so many people playing mahjong. Generally, you can see it everywhere in the afternoon, which is quite leisurely. Since we have been to Chengdu three times and we are familiar with the roads, we rushed to the airport bus. However, there were 4 of us, so we chose TAXI because the bus cost 10 yuan plus 2 yuan for insurance. For 4 people, it was 48 yuan. However, we took TAXI to the city It only costs 50 yuan (I didn’t tell my boyfriend before arriving in Chengdu, I wanted to surprise him). Knowing that Chengdu has the third ring road and the airport is outside the third ring road, you can imagine how close the airport is to downtown Chengdu. For a 50 yuan taxi from Shanghai, it is pretty good to be able to walk from the Oriental Pearl Tower to the South Railway Station. After arriving in the city, we checked into a hotel chosen by my aunt, on Chunxi Road.

It's called Bailistin, and it's known as a four-star hotel, but the conditions are average and the cost is 228 yuan per room. My sister and I share a room, and my sister-in-law and my mother share a room. Chunxi Road is a commercial street in Chengdu, just like Nanjing Road in Shanghai. There is also Yanshikou in Chengdu which is similar to Huaihai Road in Shanghai. Not too far away. Moreover, there are so many beauties on Chunxi Road. No matter in terms of figure, appearance or dress, they are all very white, which makes us envious. Even my sister-in-law praised us. Our figure is considered good in Shanghai, but it pales in comparison on Chunxi Road. We have long heard about the beautiful women in Chengdu, and now we see them. It certainly lives up to its reputation. . .

In addition to the cost-effective Uniqlo, you can find Zara and H&M brands in Wangfujing and Pacific Street. Even Louis Vuitton and Gucci in Yanshikou have a very large store. This shows that Chengdu is already a very fashionable city, and I believe that it will only take 10 years to develop into an international metropolis comparable to Shanghai. The area from Chunxi Road to Yanshikou belongs to the relatively prosperous city center of Chengdu. They are available in all major shopping malls: Wangfujing and Pacific. Carrefour, Ito-Yokado. Beijing Hualian, Chengdu Maoye Department Store. These are very famous. Just past 1 o'clock is the Sichuan Science and Technology Museum. There is a very useful statue of the great Mao Zedong outside the door. Tianfu Square is a demonstration of Chengdu’s unique leisure charm. A very large square that can accommodate at least tens of thousands of people. The musical fountain at night is very attractive. My sister and I respectively left Qianying somewhere. There are pictures to prove it. Ha ha. And it’s not far from the legendary Wuhou Temple, and the taxi only costs 12 yuan.

Chengdu city center food article:

Here I have to mention a self-service hotpot called Lumanjia on Chunxi Road. This is the worst place to eat in Chengdu that gives me the worst impression. When you walk on the northern section of Chunxi Road, there are dozens of people handing out flyers to you, ranging from Korean to Japanese food. To the hotpot. In the end, we chose a hot pot restaurant that seemed to be cost-effective. 29 yuan per passenger. Eat whatever you want. When we walked to the third floor. Just ask us to pay for the tickets. This is similar to the concept of being polite when we go to a wedding banquet. When we walked into the lobby on the third floor, wow, there were so many people. Chengdu people are so awesome. My sister couldn't help but scream strangely. However, there are no empty seats on the third floor. The waiter asked us to go to the 5th floor. We found a place to sit down. I saw many kinds of vegetables placed in the center of the table. But it doesn't look very fresh. Probably because it's cheap. There are still many people on the 5th floor. My sister and I have never seen such a dining scene. My sister-in-law said there were more people there than on her wedding day. When we went to get plates and pick up food, we basically couldn't squeeze in around the edges. The waiter spoke with a local accent. Didn't understand anything at all. depressed. After they took turns, my sister and I finally found a place to get food. I was immediately dumbfounded. All meat. Duck intestines, heart, chicken, tripe, etc. It doesn't look very fresh. I didn’t dare to take more. When eating hot pot, the table was stained with grease. The waiter couldn't wipe it clean even after wiping it three times. Plus there are so many people. Even the air conditioning wasn't on. It's so hot. That meal was really nauseating. From now on, if you see this green house, don’t go there.

Of course, there are still many good places on Chunxi Road, such as the famous Long Chao Shou. Mom's favorite. My sister-in-law's favorite. My sister's beloved. And I like it. A set meal costs 28 yuan and includes 12 dishes, which is a great value. You can try all kinds of snacks. There are also a lot of people. In the center of Chunxi Road, there is a statue of Dr. Sun Yat-sen. Next to it is the haagendazs store. There is also DQ not far away. I like to eat DQ. So does my sister. , because it doesn’t contain many calories. It’s a good ice cream for us beauties to satisfy their cravings and lose weight. And I still ate in Chengdu, which felt much better than in Shanghai, at least it wasn’t depressing. Downstairs in Pacific Ocean is the famous couple's lung slices. Lai glutinous rice balls. Korean buns etc. Very famous. Everyone, pay attention. At this time, I am about to introduce a good place to you - Lao Ma Ho Flower. So delicious. It's in a small alley on the right hand side of Chunxi Road South Street. My sister and I were shopping and couldn't find our way back to the hotel. Then I accidentally discovered it while wandering around. The aroma is overwhelming at the door. My sister, who never likes greasy things, had to hold on to two pig's trotters. Be scary. Especially the dipping saucer. Made secretly by the boss. Use nine words to describe it as "fragrant, rich and spicy". At 12 yuan each, it’s not expensive. The store also has a lot of delicious food. We stayed in Chengdu for 3 days. I brought my mother and sister-in-law to eat here three times. But my sister-in-law doesn't like it. well. The gap between those born in the 1980s and those born in the 1970s. . . .

Jiuzhaigou Travel:

In fact, after reading a lot of travel notes posted by Ctrip, I already know what kind of travel methods are available. Free travel. My sister-in-law chose it. With a very familiar mentality, we arrived at the travel agency where Lao Li traveled online, signed the contract and paid. One-stop service. Note: Don’t swipe your card. Because there is a one percent handling fee. I also enjoyed Lao Li’s ten-minute introduction to Chengdu’s oral travel guide. interesting. I think he looks like a panda. Add a pair of black glasses. And my sister said he looks like a Chow Chow. When I see it, I feel like I want to ravage him. He really has the capital to be abused. Okay, let’s get back to the topic.

The four of us were each assigned a small car. A Nissan car. Don't know how to pronounce it. There are TIDA letters on the back of the trunk. The car is quite spacious. Because my sister-in-law and I are not fat. Sitting in the back row is not crowded at all. The driver was picked up by us at our hotel as scheduled. Everyone sets off at 7:30. Passed by Jiangyou County (former residence of Li Bai). The driver stopped for us to see the earthquake ruins. The new county seat of Beichuan is on the road from Chengdu to Jiuzhaigou. Recovery is so quick. My uncle once donated 1 million to build a school in Beichuan. He probably doesn't know that Beichuan will develop like this until now. The road to Jiuzhaigou is all winding. The road conditions are still good. It's not as bad as the legend says. We arrived at Jiuzhaigou at 3:40 pm. Had a meal on the way. Went to the toilet 2 times. I have to mention the toilet. It can be called the tyrant of the toilet. The boy seemed to pee standing up. It probably doesn't matter. Not if it's a girl. If you don't have Miss Liu Xuan's skills, don't go to the toilet. Two balance poles are placed horizontally. People step on it. The middle is empty. If you don't have good balance, you will fall into the pit. Also charge 1 yuan per time. The experience was so profound. Seeing this, my sister forced herself to the hotel. We stayed in a new store owned by grassroots people. Pretty clean. There is hot water. It just feels relatively deserted. I guess it’s because of the new store. The boss's new store has only been open for two days, and it usually receives high-end customers. Ha ha ha ha. We are still considered high-end. That’s awesome. .

Through my sister-in-law’s efforts, after reading the guide, I thought Jiuzhaigou should be familiar to us. But when I opened my sister-in-law’s first guide, it read: "Due to the large number of people buying tickets temporarily in Jiuzhaigou and the queues for more than 2 hours, it is recommended to buy tickets one night in advance." In view of this, we decided to send representatives to Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area to buy tickets. To be honest, it took me a full day of driving. They are all very tired. No one wants to run. Finally, with the encouragement of my mother. Sacrifice my rest time. My sister-in-law and I went to Mizoguchi to buy tickets. The time was 4:30. My sister-in-law and I were very happy. Just go and buy it. There was no queue. I feel extremely lucky. Go back to the hotel and take a closer look. Immediately fainted. Dumbfounded. We bought tickets for the day. Rather than a ticket to ditch the next day. OMG. 880 yuan. What a shame. Call Lao Li. Ask for solutions. Finally, through his friend's friend's friend's friend, he exchanged 4 Jiuzhaigou tickets for the next day. It made our sister-in-law crazy. Strategies harm people. Fortunately the remedy was timely. Otherwise, you will regret it. The 15-page guide gives us a hint at the beginning.

Four beauties came to the gate of Jiuzhaigou at eight o'clock in the morning. Needless to say. Take a group photo as a souvenir, striking a big pose, scissor pose, the standard photo pose of the post-80s generation. The standard photo pose of those born in the 1970s is to stand at attention. Mom is helpless. There are 20 sightseeing buses of various sizes at the entrance. I feel that Jiuzhaigou is very grand. Get on the bus and there will be a guide wearing Tibetan clothes. Mandarin is not very standard. Our first stop was Spark Sea. Seeing such blue water for the first time, everyone in the car was in an uproar, and then they arrived at Shuzheng Village. We chose to sit directly in the primeval forest. My sister-in-law said this is what the guide said, and then walked down from the primeval forest to Arrow Bamboo Sea - Panda Sea - Pearl Beach - Jinghai - Shuzheng Village.

For lunch, there is a service center called Nuorilang. At 12 noon, it is packed with people. The buffet is now 50 yuan to 70 yuan. It seems that there is a kind that can reserve a table for 10 people. Serve. The 4 of us ordered 4 70 yuan dishes. One sentence. Enough to fill your stomach. . My sister and I really couldn't walk anymore. My mother and sister-in-law are in good physical condition. I guess this has something to do with the fact that they usually go out to dance. Office women like us basically lack exercise and have always been in a state of sub-health. It took a long time to set off from the Nuorilang Center in Shuzheng Village at 2pm, heading for the Zezawa Valley. There are only Upper Season Sea - Lower Season Sea - Wucai Pond - Changhai. On the way, we passed a love cliff.

This is another legendary story, probably similar to Dong Yong. In modern times, he would still be commonly known as Brother Sharp. . Hahahaha.

At about 4:30 pm, we went to stay at a Tibetan home in Shuzhengzhai Valley as agreed. It looked deserted outside, but unexpectedly, after entering, it suddenly became bright and full of people. We know these people are staying here to avoid paying tickets. So do we. Because the guide says so. There is no hot water in Tibetan homes. There are still two people sharing a room, and there is free dinner at night, but there is no way to take a shower. It looks pretty clean. But my sister said that she really doubted whether the sheets had been changed and she didn't dare to take off her clothes when sleeping. Sleep fit. . At 6 o'clock in the morning, we were woken up by the sound of Tibetan people making breakfast. Free breakfast, steamed buns, porridge, and pickles. The pickles tasted weird. What was even more strange to us was that the Tibetans were holding the local names in their hands early in the morning. The one who calls highland barley wine is drinking. So unhappy. . . .

It’s already 7:30 after eating breakfast. Still have to stay at the Tibetan uncle’s house. Because the landlord said that the gate would not open until 8 o'clock, but you were in the ditch at 7 o'clock. That was too obvious. Hahahahaha. We waited until 8 o'clock to come out, and as soon as we got there we met three staff members wearing suits and ties. My sister-in-law said it was over. You have to make up the ticket, and you will be fined seriously, because the guide says so. Unexpectedly, they only asked us to pay 90 yuan for the sightseeing fare for the next day. Lucky you. . I feel like I have someone helping me on this trip, hahaha. But the staff said that starting from June 1st, a fine will be charged to compensate for the ticket. Scared to death. . It doesn’t feel good to be caught anyway. Some affect the mood. Playing in Shuzhenggou, there is no Haizi in Tiger Sea or Spark Sea. It was time to get out of the ditch, but in the end, my little girl nervously said that she wanted to go to Shuzheng Waterfall and take some beautiful photos. Because I was too tired yesterday and didn’t have the energy to shoot. I would like to advise everyone that one day in Jiuzhaigou is really not enough. , must be two days. Otherwise, you can only watch the car. Of course, it's better not to live in a ditch if you can. After all, being caught will affect your mood. You have to pay a fine to make up for the tickets. It's too laborious. .

We went out at noon on the third day, feeling very tired and unable to eat, so we bought some KFC. Just go back to the hotel. The price is twice that of KFC in Shanghai. The next stop was Huanglong Scenic Area. After seeing the pictures taken by photographers, I was very attracted to Huanglong. However, when I met those who came by plane and went to Huanglong first, they all told me not to go. Because the most beautiful Wucai Pond really doesn’t have any water. Spending more than 200 yuan is not cost-effective. Very regretful. The physical strength of our four beauties was already exhausted. Decided to give up the Huanglong tour. On the fourth day, we returned directly from Jiuzhaigou to Chengdu. It was a pity that the Huanglong attractions were missing, but we all like to listen to others and make decisions, so we asked Lao Li to make new arrangements for us. Finally, Lao Li agreed to send us to Dujiangyan in Chengdu. We didn’t agree at first, but we were kinder to the driver during the trip and gave him 200 yuan for his meal. The driver was very happy. We used three tactics against Lao Li: the bitter flesh trick, the beauty trick, and the sowing dissension trick. In the end we won. Hahahahahaha.

Finally, to summarize: This trip to Jiuzhaigou Valley in Sichuan was perfect. It felt great not to be in a group. However, the accommodation on Chunxi Road in the center of Chengdu was noisy and expensive, so it is not recommended. Oh, lodging in Jiuzhaigou Valley can affect your mood. You will definitely be caught. It just depends on how they implement their policies. If you can't live here, just live there. We stayed in Chengdu for several days and went to many places, such as Huanglongxi and Luodai in the surrounding ancient towns. I didn’t mention it in the article, so I really feel sorry for everyone. I was really busy and worked overtime early in the morning to write it. I have to go to work again tomorrow. I write these messy things because I am very grateful to my friends who provide us with travel guides. I'm just doing my best for everyone's smooth travel. Thank you for your support. . I love my mother, my sister-in-law, and my sister. come on. come on. come on. .
