Is it snowing where you are? The winter scenery in Jiulong County
There is a place that cannot be described in words for its beauty, this place is called Jiulong.
As the winter month is not over and the lunar month is coming, between the minor cold and the major cold, it is the coldest time of the year. If you are not in the warm south, it must be snowing where you are, right? However, in this season of 'no snow in the south, no spring in the north', there is a magical landscape in the pure land of Jiulong, with snow-capped mountains and silver-wrapped, the Tibetan villages below the snow line have bloomed in the cold and there are more ancient scenes. This is a natural painting, this is a harmonious poem.
Ganzi Prefecture Jiulong County, anciently a Qiang land, is the most unique Tibetan Yi corridor in Ganzi Prefecture, located in the heart of the Great Shangri-La in southwest China, hidden in the deep folds of the Hengduan Mountains, independent of the world, little known, but is kept in the deep boudoir unknown, glaciers and snow mountains, grasslands and forests... all kinds of beauty are mixed in it.

The Dayluku Prairie, at an altitude of 3654 meters, is mainly grassland, combining mountains, valleys, houses, and temples. When snow falls here, the wilderness is vast, the mountains are green and white, and the boundary between fairyland and the world is lost. The sunset is golden, the vast snowfield, all in a blink of an eye, beautiful to the extreme.
Wuxuhai Lake is clear, like a mirror, locals call it 'the mirror for the fairy to dress up', it seems that you can see through the bottom of the lake at a glance. If you catch the mountain mist and water vapor, you will feel like you are in a fairyland.
The Fairy Lake Scenic Area is located in Wulaxi Township, Jiulong County, 45 kilometers southeast of Jiulong County, with a total area of 204 square kilometers. Jiulong in Tibetan is called 'Puyizanxue', which means the divine lake in the depths of the white clouds. The locals call it Changhaizi. The vegetation around Fairy Lake is lush, with hundreds of flowers competing for beauty in spring and summer. The lake is surrounded by tall alpine rhododendron trees. When they bloom in June and July, the entire alpine lake is surrounded by a sea of flowers.
