Jiuzhaigou China - Nuorilang Waterfall

Nuorilang Waterfall, located in Shuzheng Valley, is the widest waterfall in Jiuzhaigou and so it occupies a central position in the area. Indeed, it is often regarded as the symbol of the scenic area and it is cited as one of the six most beautiful waterfalls in China.

Nuorilang Waterfall is over 300 meters wide and spans a ridge, which is 20 meters high with a smooth top floor. Legend has it that there was no waterfall, but only a terrace long, long ago. One year, a famous Buddhist monk named Jarmoda brought the Palm Leaves sutras, a ploughshare and hand reeling machine with him when he came back from travel in a faraway land. The bright and beautiful Tibetan girl Royi understood how to use the hand reeling machine quickly. She put the reel on the terrace and taught the girls passing by to use the reel and thus the terrace was called spinning platform. However, the fierce and cruel leader Luozha thought that the girl was doing something wicked so he kicked Royi and her reeling machine off the cliff. Immediately the mountain spring broke apart and swept away Luozha and his henchman into the cliff. The spinning platform became the waterfall that we can see today.

An observation tower is established on the opposite side of the Nuorilang Waterfall. Standing on the tower, travelers have a panoramic view of the whole waterfall. In the morning, the waterfall bathes in the sun's bright rays and looks even more charming as the water sparkles with colorful rainbows. During the winter, the waterfall usually forms a huge ice curtain with countless icicles hanging on the cliff, creating a rare ice crystal world.

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

The most beautiful place in China! | Spring Festival in Jiuzhaigou, Day 4 and 5

Spring Festival is China's biggest and most important holiday. It's like Christmas and New Year's Eve in one holiday!
From February 7th to February 14th, 2016, we got one week off from work, so my friend and I decided to spend an amazing week at Sichuan province, the home of Pandas and spicy food.

On our fourth day in Sichuan, we went on a 10-hour bus ride through the mountains and up to the valley and national park of Jiuzhaigou. As you can see in the video, we spent the evening of our 4th day hanging out with tibetan locals at a KTV.
On the fifth day, we spent the whole day to explore Jiuzhaigou National Park.

Here is the website for the Jiuzhaigou National Park:


As you might have heard the bad news a few weeks ago, an earthquake hit Sichuan and with it this beautiful National Park. A lot of natural sights were destroyed, with it, the Nuorilang Waterfalls which you can see at the end of the video. They were the tallest waterfalls in China, now it's just a heap of mud! Once again, this shows that we should never wait for a trip we want to go on.
