After visiting Jiuzhaigou, come and check out the 'Little Jiuzhaigou' too!

A great place to cool off and escape the heat, I recommend the legendary 'Little Jiuzhaigou' - Da Kou National Forest Park in Zhongxiang, Jingmen, Hubei. Regarding tickets: Booking 2 hours in advance costs only 30+ yuan, while purchasing on-site is 40 yuan. Travel Tips: Pet-friendly! Be sure to choose a sunny day to visit, as the lake water will be even more dazzling under the sunlight. I took the photos after ten in the morning. The most beautiful scenery is at Suolongtan (Lock Dragon Pool) and Tianchi (Heavenly Lake), which are not far from each other, just a 5-minute walk away. This is where you'll find the most pictures online. Now, the hydrangeas are blooming, adding to the surprise. After Tianchi, there is a path leading up the mountain, but the road condition at the top is not good, so proceed according to your ability. We walked the whole way, which was quite easy for me, but I saw some people were very tired. However, the route is very pristine, which I think is beautiful and worth a visit. There are plenty of small fish and shrimp, and many people bring their children to play. Nets are available for sale. There is a parking lot inside, which is convenient and free, with a master to guide parking.
