Jiuzhaigou is located at the northern foot of Gaerna Peak in the southern section of the Minshan Mountains. It is a branch of the Yangtze River system at the source of the Jialing River.

Water is the protagonist of Jiuzhaigou landscape. The crystal clear green stream intersects between the forest and the shoal like a necklace. The colorful lakes and majestic waterfalls are dazzling.
In ancient times, when the earth was in the very cold interglacial and Little Ice Age stages, the calcium carbonate in the water here could not condense, and they flowed with the water. It was not until the earth's climate warmed about 12,000 years ago that the calcium carbonate in running water became active. When they encountered obstacles, they adhered to them. Over thousands of years, they accumulated more and more. It is so high that it forms the "Haizi" that people see in Jiuzhaigou today, which is composed of milky white calcium embankments that store water. It is called a barrier lake in geology.
Many people have learned from myths and stories when they were very young that there are colorful Yaochi in the palace of the Queen Mother in Heaven, but no one has seen it. However, you can actually see colorful Yaochi in Jiuzhaigou. The lake is the Five Color Pond hidden at the bottom of Zechawa Valley. Through the gaps in the forest, you can see that some parts of the lake are blue, some are light green, some are crimson yellow, some are gray and black, and some are pink and blue... If the mountain wind blows, the lake will be even more colorful, really It's like a colorful fairyland falling into the world. There was a local rumor that it was dyed with fairy rouge water.

The language, clothing and customs of the Tibetan people here are obviously different from those of their neighboring Tibetans. According to research, their ancestors originally lived in Maqu, Gansu, belonging to a powerful tribe at the foot of Aniqing Mountain. They stayed by the Baishui River with Songtsen Gampo during his eastern expedition to Songzhou. "Book of Tang: Biography of Tubo" records that during the Tubo expedition in the early Tang Dynasty, Songtsen Gampo took the brave and capable Hequ tribe as the vanguard and occupied Songzhou in one fell swoop, while some of the remaining troops were left behind at the foot of Gongganling. They brought the legend of the Oro Goddess Mountain in the original meander of the river and the birth legend of the tribe to Jiuzhaigou. The name of Semo Mountain in Jiuzhaigou Valley and the legend of Goluo Semo both originate from the meander of the river.
