If there is a spot in Sichuan Province that is more strikingly beautiful, more fairyland-like than the Huanglong Scenic and Historic Interest Area, it has to be the Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest Area, which lies about 130km north of Huanglong and roughly 400km north of Chengdu (about 10 hours' drive from the latter), near the Sichuan-Gansu provincial borders.

With clear and bright lakes, curtain-like waterfalls, lush forest, primitive tibetan villages, Jiuzhaigou features all the elements of the shangri-la found by the secluded chinese monk over thousands of years ago.
