Jiuzhaigou is beautiful! The blue of Jiuzhaigou is absolutely stunning 🌸 Huanglong's Five-Colored Pool is truly beautiful ☘️

#On May 18th, I flew to Chengdu, then transferred to the high-speed train to Huanglong Station. I stayed one night.

The next day, I hired a car to visit Huanglong's Five-Colored Pool and Jiuzhaigou.
