Summer Trip to Jiuzhai, Zoige, and Emeitang Flower Sea for Graduation in June-August

Highlights along the route towards Aba and Jiuzhai:

1: Emeitang Flower Sea: From early June to early August each year, the grassland covering 30,000 square kilometers becomes a sea of flowers and a paradise of fragrance.

2: First Bend of the Yellow River: One must see the Yellow River to be content. Tourists from home and abroad are eager to enjoy the magnificent view of the First Bend of the Yellow River, especially the scenery at sunset and sunrise. In the evening, as the sun sets, the Yellow River shimmers with red light under the setting sun, winding freely and gracefully. Such a majestic and composed demeanor can only be found at the First Bend of the Yellow River.

3: Waqie Pagoda Forest: In Tibetan, Waqie Pagoda Forest means 'big tent.' Here stands the Waqie Pagoda Forest, commemorating the site where the 10th Panchen Lama chanted sutras and prayed for blessings. Surrounding the pagoda forest is a continuous expanse of prayer flags, a truly spectacular sight.

4: Zoige Flower Lake: The hundreds of acres of water meadows around Zoige Flower Lake form a nature reserve for plateau wetland biodiversity. Simple and quiet, yet it ignites the soul—this is Flower Lake, the enchanting Flower Lake.

5: Jiuzhaigou: 'No need to see water after returning from Jiuzhaigou' is a true interpretation of its scenery. With 108 lakes formed by springs, waterfalls, rivers, and shoals, it creates a colorful jade basin of heavenly pools. The six major scenic areas—Long Lake, Sword Rock, Nuorilang, Shuzheng, Zechawa, and Black Lake—are distributed in a 'Y' shape. Emerald lakes, layered waterfalls, colorful forests, snow peaks, Tibetan culture, and blue ice are known as the 'six wonders.' The magical Jiuzhaigou is hailed as a 'fairy tale world' and the 'king of water scenery.'

6: Chuanzhu Temple Lavender: Every peak summer season, over 20,000 mu of lavender in Chuanzhu Temple burst into bloom, undulating with the wind, displaying purple blossoms, and filling the air with fragrance. The entire base seems to be dressed in a purple coat. The fragrant lavender sways in the breeze, a magnificent sight.

7: Huanglong: Upon entering Huanglong Scenic Area, the first thing you see is a group of exquisite pools with bright and clear water—the Welcome Pools. These pools vary in size, with unique shapes, brilliant colors, and are arranged in a staggered pattern. Surrounded by mountains and lush forests, wildflowers bloom among the cliffs, and colorful butterflies dance. Stone paths wind through the mountains, dotted with viewing pavilions, adding to the charm.
