I had been wanting desperately to go to Jiuzhaigou for so long, but no one was interested in going with me, and then the earthquake happened and put any would-be plans to rest. Finally, years and years and a pandemic later, I managed to drag my mum there with me :’) and it was worth the wait - every bit as magical and healing as I hoped. Nature really is the best medicine.
