Jiuzhaigou Trip with Kids: Not Recommended in March! Traveling with Music

“Dreamy clouds, over thousands of mountains, gently fall on the homeland of the cycle of the sun and moon.” The song "My Jiuzhaigou" planted the seed of Jiuzhaigou's stunning scenery in my heart. In March, as the ice and snow begin to melt and the breath of spring gradually pervades, I embarked on a journey to this dreamland. Now, let me share my travel guide with you 😎 Preparation The temperature difference between day and night in Jiuzhaigou in March is significant, so thick coats and warm clothing 🧥 are essential. Book tickets in advance on the official WeChat account of Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area to understand the opening hours and travel notes, which is convenient for planning your itinerary. Also, Jiuzhaigou is at a high altitude, so prepare anti-altitude sickness medication in advance. My Itinerary • Day 1: Arrive at Jiuzhaigou - Jiuzhaigou Entrance Upon arrival in Jiuzhaigou, settle down near the entrance. This bustling area is full of Tibetan-style buildings and unique shops. Stroll around, taste the local cuisine, and experience the rich Tibetan culture. • Day 2: Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area Day Trip Enter the scenic area early in the morning and take the sightseeing bus directly to the primeval forest. Breathe in the fresh air and admire the marvelous scenery of snow and spring buds intertwined. Then, visit Arrow Bamboo Lake, Panda Lake, and Five Flower Lake in turn. The lake water shimmers under the sunlight, breathtakingly beautiful. In the afternoon, head to Pearl Shoal Waterfall to experience the majestic momentum of "a stream cascading down three thousand feet," and finally visit Shuzheng Lakes to conclude a dreamy day trip. About Surrounding Attractions • Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area: “Those mountains, those waters, that beautiful painting.” The beauty of Jiuzhaigou is like a natural painting. Emerald lakes, cascading waterfalls, colorful forests, snow-capped peaks, Tibetan customs, and blue ice are known as the "Six Wonders." In March, you can still see some unmelted ice and snow, which has a unique charm. • Jiuzhaigou Entrance: This is the only way to enter the scenic area. Not only is there a lively commercial street, but you can also experience Tibetan folk culture and enjoy Tibetan and Qiang cultural performances in the evening. Accommodation Guide It is recommended to stay near the Jiuzhaigou entrance, where there are various hotels and guesthouses to choose from, convenient transportation, and quick access to the scenic area. If you want to experience a quieter environment, you can also choose accommodation 🏨 in Zhangzha Town. Food Guide • Yak Beef Hot Pot: On a cold spring night, enjoy a steaming yak beef hot pot. The meat is tender, the soup is delicious, and it warms both the body and the heart 🥘. • Tibetan Butter Tea: Although the taste is unique, you must try it. It is a traditional drink of the Tibetan people, which can both resist the cold and alleviate altitude sickness. • Jiuzhaigou Mushroom Soup: A variety of fresh local mushrooms are simmered to create a fragrant and nutritious soup. Jiuzhaigou in March has both the remnants of winter and the vitality of spring. Accompanied by the melody of "My Jiuzhaigou," encounter this fairy-tale world and embark on an unforgettable journey! 💖
