While destroying the original landscape, geological forms such as glaciers, landslides, mudslides, and running water created a masterpiece in the Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture of southwest China's Sichuan province, which is the Jiuzhaigou National Park. Mountains, lakes, and waterfalls coexist successfully and add color to one another, forming a splendid and colorful fairyland. In 1992, it was listed as a World Heritage Site.
The national park is the result of 400 million years of creation as well as destruction. There is no way to stop the rapid changes in this place. Surely, old landscapes will disappear, and new ones will come into being in the future. Nevertheless, the national park will always have a pure, dreamlike, and colorful quality.
