Jiuzhaigou Valley:

Jiuzhaigou Valley, part of our heritage
The valley of nine hamlets
Like heaven on earth
So magical and mystical, can there be such a place on earth?

Cascading waterfalls in a magical forest
Lakes of shimmering emerald and turquoise
Layers upon layers of pine and conifers
Air so fresh and sweet

This fairyland on earth
With lakes named Seas of Jade
In Autumn your display is such a panoramic array
Such a peaceful and poetic place

The giant panda can be found feeding on bamboo leaves
The splendor of the Five-Flower lake, beauty which words can not adequately portray
My heart rejoices for such natural beauty and grace
How can this be, there be such a place?
