Widely renowned as a fairyland, Jiuzhaigou Nature Reserve is located in the northern part of Sichuan. In 1992, UNESCO declared it a World Heritage Site. The reserve encompasses an area of 65,000 hectares with the altitude varying from 2,000 metres at the entrance to 4,700 metres at its highest peak. Within it can be seen some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. This book with its stunning photographs shows the reserve in all its variety and splendour - large two-page spreads give a hint of its majesty while smaller images focus on the people, plants, and wildlife that make it their home.
