I embarked on a two-day fantastic journey to Jiuzhaigou with a per capita cost of only 300 yuan. I adopted the short-weekend budget travel mode to explore the beautiful scenery and delicious food.

Jinghai was surrounded by mist, resembling a fairyland.
It acted like a huge mirror, perfectly reflecting the surrounding lakes and mountains.
The symmetrical beauty captivated me, telling the story of late autumn.
Jianzhuhai: A Different Charm
Jianzhuhai showcased autumn beauty with swaying trees and yellow leaves.
The clouds and mists added a bit of mystery to the scene.
Tibetan Villages and Culture
Colorful prayer flags fluttered in the wind, conveying Tibetan blessings.
