Jiuzhaigou Valley
Geographic Location
Jiuzhaigou Valley is located at the foot of Mt. Gonggang of the MinShan Mountains in Jiuzhaigou County of Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan Province.
Status and Reputation
On October 14, 1992, it was inscribed on the List of World Natural Heritage by UNESCO.
On October 29, 1997, it was admitted into the World Biosphere Reserves by the United Nations.
On May 8, 2007, it was rated as the State 5A-Level Scenic Area by China National Tourism Administration.
Scenic Features
Jiuzhaigou Valley always delights tourists from home and abroad with its emerald lakes, layered waterfalls, colorful forests, snow-clad peaks and Tibetan customs. Its charm lies in the primitive, natural and idyllic beauty of its landscapes. As a tourist resort, it boasts 108 lakes, 47 springs, 17 splashing waterfalls, 11 turbulent streams, 5 shoals and 9 Tibetan villages.
The Nuorilang Waterfal
The Nuorilang Waterfall has a drop in height of 30 meters and is over 270 meters wide. As a symbol of Jiuzhaigou, it is one of China’s largest calcium falls. The waterfall is famed for its breadth and magnificence for which it gets its name in the Tibetan language.
The Five-Flower Lake
The Five-Flower Lake, which is 2,472 meters above sea level and only 5 meters deep, is the pride of Jiuzhaigou. Owning to the varying depths of the water and tufa sediments on the bottom, as well as the diversity of algae and bryophyte in the lake, waters assume a variety of colors, such as light yellow, emerald, deep and dark blue. Reflected in the sunlight, the bright colors look like the beautiful shades of the peacock’s fine feathers.
The Shuzheng Lakes
The scenic spot of the Shuzheng Lakes is at the entrance to the magnificent Jiuzhaigou, leading into the rest of the gullies. The attraction here lies in the beauty of lakes. The clear water, in shades of bright blue, varies in color with water-depth, the weather and hues of mountains.
The Pearl Shoal
The Pearl Shoal, at an elevation of 2,433 meters above sea level, is a huge fan-like calcium beach. Scattered around are a great variety of biological calcium species of different sizes due to the unique karst topography. A clear stream runs down a slope and spreads over the shoal, splashing water beads about, like millions of silver pearls bouncing in the sun shine.
The Reed Lake
The Reed Lake at an elevation of 2,140 meters above sea level is actually a semi-marsh lake, where reeds abound and birds flock. A clear brook zigzags its way through the marsh. When the reeds come into bloom, the jade-green meandering brook presents a striking contrast to the yellow spread of reeds.
The Spark Lake
When the morning mist has dispersed and the sun has risen, the crystal droplets of water in the lake look like sparks flashing, twinkling and dancing on the lake surface.
The Panda Lake and the Arrow Bamboo Lake
The road near the Five-Flower Lake winds its way up the steep mountain. You follow it until you come to a turn, and two lakes, the Panda Lake and the Arrow Bamboo Lake, come into view. Both lakes are so immense that their waters seem to join in the sky on the horizon. The names of lakes suggest that pandas will come here to drink the water in the lake and eat the arrow bamboos on the shore.
The Long Lake
At the end of Zezhawa Gully is the long lake, which is the broadest, deepest and highest lake in Jiuzhaigou. At an elevation of 3,000 meters above sea level, the Long Lake is 7.5 kilometers long and 103 meters deep at its deepest point.

Description
Beautiful Jiuzhaigou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site
Jiuzhaigou (literally Nine Village Valley) takes its name from the nine Tibetan villages. Jiuzhaigou's landscape is made up of the movement of glaciers, hydrological and tectonic activities. Jiuzhaigou's best-known feature is its dozens of blue, green and turquoise-colored lakes and multilevel waterfalls. Jiuzhaigou is composed of three valleys arranged in a Y shape, which is Shuzheng Valley and Rize, Zechawa Valley. Main attraction : Arrow Bamboo Lake, Panda Lake, Long Lake, Sleeping Dragon Lake, Pearl Waterfalls, Nuorilang Waterfalls and so on....However, the tour guide only brought us to see the 6 most beautiful waterfalls.
Jiuzhaigou was declared as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1992.
Chengdu & Jiuzhaigou | China
After flying to Chengdu we took a nine hour bus ride to Songpan, a city known for its delicious yak meat. We were told to ask the driver to complete the drive to Jiuzhaigou Valley, a beautiful and popular place filled with waterfalls, colorful lakes, and people, but he refused and we were stuck with nowhere to go, especially since our Chinese language skills were extremely limited at this time. Fortunately for us, we met four new local friends on the bus who helped us with absolutely everything. Without them, I'm not sure what would have happened to us.
From Songpan, our friends helped bargain an offering of a sketchy car ride operated by unlicensed drivers. Not only were we terrified of what might happen, but our new friends were too. Within the two hour car ride to Jiuzhaigou, each of the four cars switched drivers three times. Fortunately by the end of our trip the new drivers were much more amiable.
From here our new friends helped us plan the entire next day as we had come empty handed with a blank itinerary. After an eventful and exciting day capturing the beauty of mirror lake and the various waterfalls, we took another nine hour bus ride back to Chengdu where we spent the remainder of the night exploring the famous Jingli Pedestrian Street.

China Jiuzhaigou — Colorful Alpine Lakes
Jiuzhaigou, in remote west China, has inspired dreams of a colorful fairyland among many travelers. Jiuzhaigou features multicolored lakes surrounded by vast mountain forests. These lakes change color throughout the day and year. The colors come from the reflections of surrounding mountainsides and algae and minerals in the lakes.
Fall is the most beautiful season in Jiuzhaigou, when the landscape changes color, providing a vivid backdrop of autumnal hues — an unspoiled, dazzlingly beauty rarely rivaled in China.
Jiuzhaigou : step-by-step
Spending one day in JZG:
Morning : Arrow Bamboo Lake/Falls - Panda Lake/Falls - Five Flowers Lake - NRL Waterfall
Afternoon : Long Lake - Five Coloured Lake - Shu Zheng Falls - Shu Zheng Lakes - Lying Dragon Lake - Sparkling Lake - Reed Lake
for Zhangjiajie step-by-step video:
JiuZhaiGou, Sichuan (6 oct 2013)
No autumn is autumn enough if you don't see big patches of golden/red/colorful leaves. No water is water enough if you don't come to JiuZhaiGou.
Here, water is for your eyes only. But the images of its beauty are what you should take back.
Come anytime... as long as you have water...

We take a bus to another part of the park. This time, due to the many steps to climb, we hire a sedan chair to bring us up! Otherwise, it would be too tiring.
It is said that if there should be wonderlands on the earth, Jiuzhai Valley must be one of them. There is no equal elsewhere that has sceneries and fables of dreamlike eloquence, or natural purities like a fairyland as it.
Jiuzhai Valley National Park is located in Nanping County, 450 kilometers (about 280 miles) to the north of Chengdu City. Its name is due to the existence of nine stockaded villages of Tibetan origin, and it is always regarded as a holy mountain and watercourse by the Tibetan people.
It is a great masterpiece of nature having dreamlike scenery, which combines blue lakes, waterfalls, verdant forests, snow-covered mountains, and the folk customs of the Tibetan and Qiang peoples. Legend has it that long long ago the deity of mountain named Dago had a crush on the goddess Semo, and he gave a mirror that was made from wind and cloud to the goddess. However, the devil appeared and made trouble to Semo. Inadvertently, Semo broke the mirror into 108 pieces, which fell down to the earth and then turned to 108 colorful lakes. The lake is also called Haizi by local people.
In addition to the dreamlike sceneries, there are numerous flora and fauna in the scenic area. The natural forest covers an area of nearly 30,000 hectares (about 74,132 acres), including 2,576 higher plant species (24 species of national protected plants) and over 400 lower plant species (212 species of algae). The diversity of flora has provided a good environment for wild animals. There are 170 species of vertebrates, 141 species of birds and 17 species of rare animals. Among them the first rank has giant pandas, takins and golden monkeys and the second rank has lesser pandas, marmots, and blue sheep.
Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest Area covers more than 600 square kilometers (about 230 square miles). Shuzheng Valley, Rize Valley and Zechawa Valley are the three main valleys, but the sceneries are far more than you expect. There are Panda Lake Waterfall which has the longest drop in Jiuzhai Valley and freezes to a crystal world in winter, the giant calc-sinter beach Pearl Beach, the Arrow Bamboo Lake that has a large area of bamboo, the favorite food of pandas, and Swan Lake where swans inhabit ...

Amazing Places On Earth - Jiuzhaigou Valley National Park
Jiuzhaigou park is probably the most beautiful place I have ever been to and I have been around! Jiuzhaigou Valley is a mountainous area with series of lakes and waterfalls containing clear, mineral-rich water. It is located in China's Northern Sichuan Province. And Jiuzhai Valley is probably also the most well-preserved natural area in China.
More than 100 lakes of different sizes are scattered in the valley. These lakes with brilliant colors are called “haizi” by the local Tibetan people, which means the sea. It is these alpine lakes that make Jiuzhaigou a fantastic place. Disposed in a stepped-like fashion in the valley, the lakes are always connected with waterfalls. Between the primeval forests and the lakes, there are nine villages of Tibetan people, and the name Jiuzhaigou means Nine Village Valley.
The primeval forest at Jiuzhaigou is nearly 30,000 acres, which contains more than 2,500 rare plants and a dozen rare animals under state protection including pandas, which also have been found here. The discovery of Jiuzhaigou is related to a panda-rescue program. The pandas once were endangered because of the blooming of arrow bamboos here. When experts came to rescue the pandas they were startled by the beauty of Jiuzhaigou. Thus Jiuzhaigou became a protected scenic area.
The magic of Jiuzhaigou lies in the water – the alpine lakes and waterfalls. Pure and clear as they are, the lakes of Jiuzhaigou have gorgeous colors. The colors of the lakes change with the variance in light angle and intensity and changing of seasons. The lakes at Jiuzhaigou are of different types and shapes. In Shuzheng Valley, Rize Valley and Zechawa Valley, there are 114 lakes of different sizes disposing like a ladder. The 19 lakes in Shuzheng Valley are named “seas of Shuzheng”. Each is over 100 meters in distance to another.
