Your journey
Leshan Giant Buddha and Huanglongxi forms a round trip from Chengdu, with Leshan Giant Buddha, Huanglongxi Ancient Town arranged between the outward and return legs. Combine the monumental riverside Buddha with the lanes of Huanglongxi on a full-day excursion from Chengdu. Jiuzhaigou lies mostly between about 2,000 and 3,100 metres; scenic buses link the main valleys, but the boardwalks beside Five Flower Lake, Nuorilang Waterfall and the forest still add several kilometres on foot. Return to Chengdu after Huanglongxi Ancient Town. Eat a warm bowl of yak-beef noodles or Tibetan-style potatoes after the valley walk, and look for the blue-green lake colour against pale travertine rather than trying to count every bus stop. The route is best suited to travelers who prefer a private guide, a named set of sights and time for a proper meal in each place, with the daily emphasis on a focused private journey with a balanced daily rhythm. Opening hours, traffic and local access are checked during the trip, allowing the guide to reorder visits when needed.
