Special Mention

Jiuzhaigou Gully is about 2000m一4 300m above sea level，located at the foot of Garna Peak in the southern section of Minshan Mountain ranges，a branch valley of the source of Dialing River which is an upper part of Yangtze River. The scenic area is accessible all the year round，though in autumn the gully is at its best. For a period of time it was thought unsuitable to tour in winter，yet the newly built Chengdu-Jiuzhaigou tour highway unveiled its winter beauty to the sightseers. Since the first“Winter Tour to Jiuzhaigou”in 1998 ,an increasing number of admirers are rushing in for a special winter sight enjoyment，particularly in the holidays of Spring Festival，when hotel rooms are hardly available without booking early in advance.
