Itinerary : Chengdu
– Wenchuan – Maoxian – Songpan - Jiuzhaigou
Once again we packed our luggage and boarded to Jiuzhaigou
by bus. A driver picked us up at hotel at 07.00 am and drove us to gathering
place. The bus should come at 08.00 am but it was late. It arrived at 08.40 am.
There were 37 people who joined the tour and we were the only foreigners. The
tour guide speaks only Chinese and doesn’t understand English at all. Worse, he
can’t read our name that is written in alphabet and he called us “You two”
during the tour -.-“

The road to Jiuzhaigou is curvy but the road is good. Only
in some spots the road are in maintenance due to the impact of Sichuan earthquake back
in 2008. The traffic was already crowded when we departed. If you are planning
to go to Jiuzhaigou by bus from Chengdu,
it’s better to go as early as possible to avoid traffic jam. Our bus was
comfortable enough and air conditioned. The scenery along the way to Jiuzhaigou
is incredibly beautiful.
