Jiuzhaigou is a national park of turquoise lakes, multi-level waterfalls and Tibetan villages at 2,500 metres in Sichuan's Min mountains. Closed-buffered bus loops make the Y-shaped valley easy to cover; autumn colours in late October are the park's famous peak.
Top sights
- Five-Flower Lake — The park's poster image — a shallow lake whose mineral water shifts from emerald to sapphire in one frame.
- Nuorilang Waterfall — The broad travertine curtain at the fork of the Y — widest in the park, 20 minutes from the transit hub.
- Long Lake — The highest large lake, ringed by peaks and glacier-fed — calmest in the late morning light.
- Pearl Shoal Waterfall — Water sheets across a calcified slope before dropping — the boardwalk over the shoal is a highlight.
- Zharu Valley — The quieter Tibetan-Buddhist side valley, by permit only — the way to see the park without crowds.

Good to know
- Altitude: the valley floor is 2,000m+ — pace day one, hydrate, and keep painkillers handy.

- Photograph lakes mid-morning to early afternoon: low sun kills the colour, overcast is actually ideal.
