Jiuzhaigou Travel Tips

Shuzheng Valley, Rize Valley and Zechawa Valley are three main valleys in Jiuzhaigou, but the sceneries are far more than mentioned above. There are Panda Lake Waterfall that has the longest drop in Jiuzhaigou 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 ... to name just a few. Only if you are personally present can you truly appreciate just how splendid the sights of Jiuzhaigou Valley are.

In addition to the dreamlike sceneries, there are numerous flora and fauna in Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest 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.
