Blue Ice Creamy Top, a paradise on earth! Huanglong in winter is too beautiful
Many people advised against visiting Huanglong in winter before I came.
I took a trip to Jiuzhaigou and made a detour to see it.
Honestly, climbing the mountain is really tiring!
But I think the scenery is quite worth it.
Probably because the weather was particularly good,
or maybe because there were very few people in the scenic area.
The crystal-clear colorful pools,
the world's rare high-altitude cold water calc-sinter landscape,
like a giant dragon with shimmering scales,
lying quietly under the main peak of Minshan, Xuebaoding.
Taking photos is really too beautiful!
Friends who are going to travel during the Spring Festival, look here for tips.

off-season tickets are buy one get one free, 40 yuan per person.
🚠Cable Car
80 yuan per person for the ascent, 40 yuan per person for the descent.
If you usually like to hike and are in good physical condition, you don't need to buy a cable car ticket at all; because after getting off the cable car, you still have to walk a long way, which is very unreasonable in design.

The good parts are in the first 2 kilometers and the last part near the colorful pools, the middle part is relatively dull.
🔸Welcome Pool - Washing Body Cave
The several large-scale calcified pools at the entrance, the water does not freeze in winter, and it is very beautiful when it is sunny. The calcified pools in the middle are basically frozen and have no water.
🔸Pengtai Waterfall
In winter, the spring water freezes to form ice waterfalls, which is quite spectacular.
🔸Colorful Pools
Located halfway up the mountain in the scenic area, at an altitude of 3576 meters, it is the largest group of calcified pools in Huanglong, and it is very spectacular when viewed from above against the backdrop of Xuebaoding.
In winter, most of the colorful pools are covered with a thin layer of ice, and the yellow, green, and blue water shines brightly among the broken ice. The sunlight shows different colors from different angles, plus the blessing of white snow, the colors are dreamy.

📝Notes
1️⃣The round trip in the scenic area is 7KM, and the round trip on foot takes at least 4 hours. Elderly and children should not consider climbing the mountain, and should act according to their abilities. If you still want to see it, you can take the cableway up and then walk down slowly.
2️⃣For hiking, wear soft-soled sports shoes, you don't need to wear too thick clothes on sunny days, but you need to be windproof, as it will be very tiring and easy to sweat when climbing.
3️⃣In the off-season, except for the entrance of the scenic area, there is no food for sale inside, so be sure to prepare dry food in advance.
Huanglong Scenic Area has four parking lots, one to four in turn, the parking lot No. 2 is the closest to the exit of the scenic spot, No. 3 is mainly a tour group bus, and No. 4 is the closest to the ropeway. From Chuanzhusi Town, drive to the scenic spot for 20 minutes and park in the No. 2 parking lot (parking fee 10 yuan/time). There are several small private parking lots at the entrance of the scenic spot. Someone takes the initiative to direct on the road (it is best to park the scenic spot parking lot), and there is a real-time display when driving to the scenic spot. The real-time remaining one to four is displayed on the real-time display. Parking space. Then take the free shuttle bus to the ropeway, the ropeway fee is 80 yuan/up, the ticket fee is 170 yuan/person, and then take the battery car (20 yuan/person). Start to visit the highest place "Wucai Pool" for1.5 hours, rest for 30 minutes, walk down the mountain (in 2.5 hours), take a sightseeing w to the entrance of the scenic spot.
The scenic spot is too big. It is best to give two days to move to the scenic spot of Yijing. It is rare in China, like it, and beautiful. I want to get 90 points, and I have to write a few more words. I don't know how good it is, just write it. Okay. The picture is also shared
The through train is very convenient. The driver contacted us the night before and picked us up at the hotel entrance. There is plenty of time, more than three hours to visit Huanglong Scenic Area, it is no problem to take the ropeway and sightseeing car and walk down.
Before I arrived at Huanglong, others said that it was very hard to climb the mountain and have altitude sickness, but he may have been to Huanglong for a long time. Now Huanglong does not need to climb the mountain. You can go up the mountain directly by the cableway, and there is a sightseeing car on the mountain to the observation deck of Wucaichi, which is very convenient and efficient.
The scenery is very good, walking up, about two hours, then hiking, down, an hour and a half, the scenery is beautiful, but there is very little water in this season, if you go in July, June and July, I think it is more beautiful or autumn, there is altitude sickness
Huanglong is our second time. The first time was the epidemic. When it came, it was winter. It was ice and snow. It was white. It was really beautiful. It was not the same as the Huanglong we knew. The second time I came, it was autumn, with a thick optimized color.
Busy next trip review late! Master Yang was safe and successfully accompanied us for 3 days of wonderful tours! Not only the attractions are charming, but also the food and accommodation are quite satisfactory. There is really no shopping and no extra charge throughout the whole process. Have fun and have no blockage!
景区风景好,不过人也多,目前积水都不算很多,再过几个月去就更好看了。建议坐索道和观光车上行然后再走下来,这样可以看到所有的风景。
