The scenic area is mainly composed of three valleys, Rize Valley, Zechawa Valley, and Shuzheng Valley, which are distributed in a "Y" shape and belong to the world's high-altitude karst landform.

During the flood season, the water is abundant, and the waterfalls, streams, and other water features are even more spectacular. - Autumn (September-November): September to November is the colorful season in Jiuzhai Valley, especially in mid-to-late October, when the trees on the mountains are colorful, making it a recognized period for viewing colorful forests. - Winter (December-February): You can enjoy a fairy tale world covered in ice and snow.
