I woke up with sore throat that day. I didn't know that the tap water there contains of high concentration of Chlorine. I pour some water into a clear glass that morning and the water color was almost white with chlorine particles flowing. Don't ever drink tap water in Jiuzhaigou! We had breakfast at 7.00 am. The breakfast
was traditional Chinese breakfast. Mantau (plain bun) with some vegetables.
They also served yellow color hot soup with only rice as its’ ingredients and
it was bland. So just imagine you put some rice into a bowl of hot water and
drink/eat it. That’s what it tasted like.
We headed to Jiuzhaigou
National Park at 8.00 am.
It took about 30 mins from our hotel to reach the place. There were so many China
group tours there. I didn’t see any foreigner at all at that day. If you have
plan to visit China, avoid China
holidays. China
itself has a very large number of local tourists.
On the way from parking lot
to the entrance, I found something really unique and fascinating. I saw the
drainage at the road side and it had 2 water colors, blue and brown. The blue
one is the water from inside Jiuzhaigou national park and the brown one is just
regular drainage water. Pretty cool isn't it?
