Overview

Situated in the north of Sichuan Province, Jiuzhaigou is a famous national park. In 1992, this natural national park was recorded on the list of World Heritage Sites. There are lots of multi-level waterfalls, colorful lakes, and snow-capped mountains. And the average elevation is about 2,000 to 4,500 meters. Huanglong, 120km away from Jiuzhaigou, is another hot tourist destination for travelers. Owing to the special terrain and geography, Huanglong is famous for its colorful and diverse ponds, dense forests, white snow mountains, and numerous hot springs. Songpan, a traditional county in the northwest of Sichuan Province, is known to the public for its stunning natural views and unique traditions. As a special activity in Songpan, horse riding has become a hot program for travelers. Planning a 5 day Jiuzhaigou, Huanglong, and Songpan Horse Riding Tour is the best way to explore the natural beauty and local cultures.
