Compared to the Huascaran Plateau, Chinese tourists traveling to Manu will have more, but it is also rare to really explore the depths of Manu. When we entered the park at the entrance of the Manu National Park, 10 of our group entered the park. Although it was already in early October, we visited the entire visiting roster. Before that, only 4 Chinese registered in 2017 and they were still in the process.
