Juizhaigou or ‘Nine Villages Valley’ is a place made for dreams. It is called ‘fairyland’ and the Tibetan folks who live here tell of romantic tales of gods and fairies. It is another geological wonder in the valley within the Min mountains similar in formation to Huanglong but on a much larger and varied scale. It is covered with lush forests studded with colourful crystal clear lakes, drained by sparkling shoals and rivers and decorated by stunning white curtains of waterfalls.
Undoubtedly, this vast and amazingly beautiful nature reserve has also been included in UNESCO World Heritage List in 1992 together with Huanglong. |
