Hey there,
I am going to Beijing in December and consider traveling to Chengdu as well. Can you please tell me whether it is better to go by train or plane? What are the costs? As I am traveling just by myself I would also like to know about the safety situation within the trains...
Thanks a lot in advance!!
Sep. 19,2009 01:31 Mr.Ho(Singapore) replied:
Looking at the map, the distance between these 2 cities is considerably long. Even a train would, I think, take about 2 days. It may therefore be inadvisable for you to take a train, especially that you are going to be alone. (Besides safety, it is also quite uncomfortable to be travelling for so long. I recently took an overnight express bus from Lijiang to Kunming which took 9 hours, and that was uncomfortable enough!).
Take flight will be better way, it is 2.5 hours flight. Published airfare is Cny1440, but sometime you may get better offer of 50%-60% discount.

I am planning to go to Chengdu in early November 09, is it a good weather to travel at that time? How to travel from Chengdu city to Jiuzhaigou and how long it takes by bus? how much is the fare?
Aug. 26,2009 02:31 Ms.Dora replied:
A bit cold there, especally when you visit Jiuzhaigou. Take warm clothes. It is the low season and there is not much passengers, and the entrace fee is half the price at high season. So, it is a fine idea, just keep warm. Chengdu Xin Nan Men (New South Gate) bus stations has buses at 8:00 and 8:05. Chadianzi has more buses but the bus condition in Xin Nan Men is better. It needs 10-12 hours to reach Jiuzhaogou and the ticket fare is about 150RMB. Enjoy~

You could take the bus from Chengdu Toursim Transport Center or Chadianzi Bus Station to Juizhaigou, via Pingwu County. The journey is 8 hours more or less The fare is around 140RMB. Since there are only several buses everyday, you may consider rent a car to drive you there.
