Finally touch down the Singapore Changi Airport.
The trip to Chengdu is definately worth it.
It was fun as i learnt the culture of the PRC there and made friends with our tour members.
Day 1:
4.5 hrs of flight to chengdu shuangliu airport. The weather was cold(15 degrees). We rushed to put on our sweaters and jackets to keep ourself warm. Chengdu temperature is temperamental, most of the time it rain and rain but we were lucky. Throughout the whole trip, chengdu is warm(the sun is out). We had to hurry down to catch the flight to Juizaigou after we touch down. Juizaigou is known for it's colourful water and the waterfalls. After we reached our destination, we had to take another 3 hrs to reach the tourist visitor centre. The journey there is definately tiring... as the road were uneven, many of our tour members vomited. The altitude of the mountain is 3000++ m high. Some people weould experience headaches, nausea and those with High blood pressure & Heart problems is at higher risk. We spent two nights at juizaigou. The climbing of the mountains under the cold temperature(7 degrees) is tiring... we had to climb 189 flights of steps just to see the beautiful colour of the lakes and water. Our tour guide there: Wang Mei.
She is a native there but her chinese is not too bad, i made friends with her and took a few photos with her too. The colours of the water and lakes were amazing, jus like a fairyland.
We watched the native cultural performance at night. Some of the photos were not uploaded.
