Lying in the southwest of China in the Northern Sichuan province, hidden in a national park is the Nine Villages Valley (or Jiuzhaigou) home to Nine Tibetan villages scattered throughout a natural wonderland. A national park of ragged peaks, sapphire Lakes, abundant forests and rushing Waterfalls, Nine Villages Valley (Jiuzhaigou) is considered one of China’s most beautiful areas. Covering over 700 square kilometres, the valley is one of China’s greatest natural assets, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1992 and a World Biosphere Reserve in 1997.
