Evelyn Sterling
An absolute masterpiece of a journey! Staying at the Fairmont Peace Hotel was a legendary experience, but Jiuzhaigou completely stole my heart. The colors of the water look like molten turquoise and emeralds. Banyan Tree Jiuzhaigou felt like a luxury cloud palace. Well worth every single penny!
Marcus Thorne
The itinerary is incredibly comprehensive. The scenery in Puyuan water town with the Hanfu photoshoot was a highly unexpected highlight—very romantic! The long coach drives to Jiuzhaigou were a bit tiring, but the view of the lakes and the InterContinental hot springs made it completely worth it.
