jiuhaigou splendour
a sparkling haiku
takes shape
jiuhaigou splendour
the rushes of a distant
waterfall
jiuhaigou splendour
spicy and varied as
Sichuan cuisine
jiuhaigou splendour
tip top sichuan
cuisine
jiuhaigou splendour
a tibetan calm
for frazzled nerves
China
Take in the splendor of Jiuzhaigou in China's Sichuan province by exploring the nine Tibetan villages that give the reserve its name and hiking the park's interlacing trails. With shimmering emerald and sapphire lakes amidst valleys of matchstick pines, and roaring waterfalls cascading down mountain faces, it's easy to see why director Zhang Yimou chose this as the backdropp for some of the most magical scenes in his movie Hero.
