On a sunny morning, filled with excitement, I boarded train C7542 heading to Jiuzhaigou. Over an hour later, the train slowly arrived at Huanglongjiuzhai Station. Stepping out, I was immediately greeted by breathtaking mountains and beautiful scenery, unfolding like a captivating painting. For the next three days, I would immerse myself in this stunning landscape, exploring every corner of Jiuzhaigou and experiencing a dreamlike journey.　　

The Fairy Pool：The Veil of the Fairy

Fairy Pool, also known as Nen'en Sangcuo, meaning "the place where fairies bathe." Located in Dalu Countryside of Jiuzhaigou County, it officially became a national 4A tourists attraction in 2021. While many visitors may not be familiar with it, the scenery here is incredible.

As soon as I entered the attraction, I was greeted by a lush, primordial forest, where dappled light filtered through towering ancient trees, as if stepping into an ancient world. The tour guide informed me that this place was once a filming location for the TV series "The Romance of the Condor Heroes," which thrilled me.

As the boardwalk extended, the tranquility of Water Curtain Cave, the clarity of Divine Spring, the depth of Yaochi, the grandeur of Qinglong Lake, and the vibrant colors of Lotus Pool… each spot captivated me and made it hard to leave.

Jiawuhai and Panda Park：The Tranquil Pearl of the Plateau

Jiawuha and Panda Parki, located within Jiuzhaigou County, is a lake situated on the plateau. The water is emerald green, with a wide surface and gentle ripples, surrounded by towering mountains.

Standing by the lake, the water is so clear that the pebbles and swimming fish at the bottom are clearly visible. Sunlight filters through the clouds, glistening on the surface like countless tiny diamonds dancing.

Here, time seems to slow down, inviting one to become immersed in this green poem, reluctant to awaken.

Jiuzhaigou: Palette of Nature

On the third day, as dawn broke, I arrived at the Jiuzhaigou tourists attraction. The autumn here is enchanting, with vibrant greens, blues, and golds… The colorful leaves reflect in the crystal-clear waters, as if nature has carelessly brushed the palette's hues, creating this breathtaking masterpiece that refreshes the spirit.

Changhai, the largest pool in Jiuzhaigou, captivates with its deep blue hue. Meanwhile, Sparkling Lake tells tales of a thousand years through its changing colors and the ancient tree remnants at the bottom. Sunlight filters through the mist, casting a glow over this land, renowned as a "fairy-tale world."

I strolled along the boardwalk, accompanied by the gentle sound of flowing water. When I reached the widest waterfall in China—Nuorilang Waterfall, I was mesmerized by its grandeur. Water cascaded from above, creating splashes that formed rainbows in the sunlight, prompting me to grab my camera to capture this beautiful moment.

The couple, Hong Weihui and her husband from Henan Province, were visiting Jiuzhaigou for the second time. Unlike their previous trip, this time they chose a more convenient mode of transportation—taking a sleeper train followed by a bullet train to reach their destination. "This trip has been much easier for us, and the overall travel time has been significantly reduced. The opening of the bullet train has indeed made travel more convenient!" they shared excitedly. "The natural scenery in Jiuzhaigou is truly enchanting, both the mountains and waters, as well as the cultural aspects, make it unforgettable. It's worth visiting multiple times."
