Jiuzhaigou

Jiuzhaigou (Nine Village valley)

Literally named after the Nine Tibetan villages that populate the valley; Jiuzhaigou is a pristine natural park located 350 Km (or a short 30 minute flight) from Chengdu, the regional capital of Sichuan province.

Jiuzhaigou literally translates as Nine Village Valley because of the Nine Tibetan Villages are scattered throughout the valley. It is a stunning, beautiful place, known for its natural wonders of lakes, springs, waterfalls, streams, rivers and shoals.

The giant Panda, Golden Monkey and white-lip Deer inhabit the wilds of Jiuzhaigou. The local people are Tibetan or Qiang descendants and they are happy to share their beautiful culture which is truly memorable.

Jiuzhaigou enjoys four distinct seasons, from the lush Spring and Summer, the changing colours of Autumn and the tranquility of Winter as time seems to freeze like the lakes and waterfalls.
