The name Jiuzhaigou means “Nine Stockades of the Tibetans“ and it’s formed in a region of sedimentary limestone mountains. This area boasts hundreds of picturesque lakes and waterfalls, both large and small. Locals even have a saying: “After returning from Huangshan, one doesn’t look at other mountains; after returning from Jiuzhai, one doesn’t bother looking at other waters.” (Meaning: once you’ve been to Huangshan, other mountains lose their appeal; once you’ve visited Jiuzhaigou, no other bodies of water compare.)
This area is formed by a Y-shaped symmetry with three main valleys (known as “gou”): Rize Valley, Zechawa Valley, and Shuzheng Valley. This gives Jiuzhaigou a multi-dimensional, multi-colored, and multi-soundscape.
