Is it snowing where you are? The winter scenery in Jiulong County

There is a place that cannot be described in words for its beauty, this place is called Jiulong. As the winter month is not over and the lunar month is coming, between the minor cold and the major cold, it is the coldest time of the year. If you are not in the warm south, it must be snowing where you are, right? However, in this season of 'no snow in the south, no spring in the north', there is a magical landscape in the pure land of Jiulong, with snow-capped mountains and silver-wrapped, the Tibetan villages below the snow line have bloomed in the cold and there are more ancient scenes. This is a natural painting, this is a harmonious poem. Ganzi Prefecture Jiulong County, anciently a Qiang land, is the most unique Tibetan Yi corridor in Ganzi Prefecture, located in the heart of the Great Shangri-La in southwest China, hidden in the deep folds of the Hengduan Mountains, independent of the world, little known, but is kept in the deep boudoir unknown, glaciers and snow mountains, grasslands and forests... all kinds of beauty are mixed in it. Lietah Lake is the representative of the wild secrets of Jiulong, also known as 'Black Sea', primitive forests, alpine lakes, meadows and waterfalls, snow-capped mountains and glaciers, it includes all the beauty of the world, like a beautiful oil painting of the world. The Dayluku Prairie, at an altitude of 3654 meters, is mainly grassland, combining mountains, valleys, houses, and temples. When snow falls here, the wilderness is vast, the mountains are green and white, and the boundary between fairyland and the world is lost. The sunset is golden, the vast snowfield, all in a blink of an eye, beautiful to the extreme. Wuxuhai Lake is clear, like a mirror, locals call it 'the mirror for the fairy to dress up', it seems that you can see through the bottom of the lake at a glance. If you catch the mountain mist and water vapor, you will feel like you are in a fairyland. The Fairy Lake Scenic Area is located in Wulaxi Township, Jiulong County, 45 kilometers southeast of Jiulong County, with a total area of 204 square kilometers. Jiulong in Tibetan is called 'Puyizanxue', which means the divine lake in the depths of the white clouds. The locals call it Changhaizi. The vegetation around Fairy Lake is lush, with hundreds of flowers competing for beauty in spring and summer. The lake is surrounded by tall alpine rhododendron trees. When they bloom in June and July, the entire alpine lake is surrounded by a sea of flowers. Wahui Mountain Scenic Area is a provincial nature reserve, with altitudes ranging from 3400 to 5460 meters, mountains overlapping, with an average annual temperature of 6.9°C. It is one of the sister peaks of 'King of Shu Mountain' Gongga Mountain. In the Wahui Mountain Scenic Area, the mountains are green, the ancient trees are towering, especially in the spring and summer seasons, beautiful wild flowers are blooming all over the meadows, and the autumn leaves, yellow leaves and green leaves are intertwined, the entire scenic area is colorful, making people daydream. Mengdong is nestled in the high mountain canyon by the Yalong River, with altitudes ranging from 2550 to 5600 meters. The vegetation here is intact, the rainfall is abundant, and the climate is pleasant. It was praised by American explorer Rock as 'the most beautiful place in the world': deep blue snowfield. Xieka Nature Reserve, located about 130 kilometers east of Jiulong County, borders Shimian County, Ya'an area to the east. Here, the mountains are stacked, the gullies are crisscrossed, the weather is varied, the grasslands are vast, the forests are lush, the rivers are clear, the waterfalls are in groups, and dozens of ice lakes are dotted in between, like pearls inlaid on the earth, crystal clear. It can be described with the eight characters 'forest quiet, stone strange, mountain strange, cloud charming'. If you have time, come to Jiulong this winter, there is snow scenery, and there is warm sun.
