    The independent trip went as planned: long, orderly ticket queues and a clean and tidy environment within the park. However, when taking a taxi back, some licensed taxi drivers refused to use the meter and charged exorbitant prices, charging 50 yuan for a 10-minute drive, while I only paid 30 yuan for a private car. Otherwise, the food, drinks, and entertainment in Jiuzhaigou were quite good, especially within the scenic area.

    Jiuzhaigou Luneng Resort (Huamei Resort) is a pleasant surprise! The Tibetan and Qiang customs are perfectly integrated with modern facilities, like an exquisite snow-capped mountain secret town. The pedestrian street is lined with specialty shops and the Tibetan architecture is magnificent. Stay in a landscape room facing the forest and snow-capped mountains, with rich dining options and warm and thoughtful service. It is adjacent to the Jiuzhaigou scenic area, but you can enjoy tranquility and convenience when you return. Stay here at night and sleep with the starry sky and forest language. A holiday paradise that perfectly combines play and rest!
