The 16-kilometer Rize Valley Scenic Area, between Nuorilang Waterfall and the primeval forest, is the highlight of Jiuzhaigou's scenic route. Its breathtaking scenery and diverse landscapes make it the climax of Jiuzhaigou's landscape. Unfortunately, Jiuzhaigou is not yet fully open to the public, and the section from Panda Lake to the primeval forest is still closed.
The scenery is very beautiful, it is worth the trip, the motherland has great mountains and rivers
A ravine with dense attractions and unique scenery. After driving to the center of Nuorilang, you will usually visit Rize Valley first.
The first place I went to in Jiuzhaigou was to take a bus directly to Jinghai, then to the primitive forest, and then to Jianzhuhai. The rest of the way was to Nuorilang. It is definitely worth the walk, the whole way is so beautiful.
The Rize Valley scenic area, nestled between Nuorilang Waterfall and the primeval forest, is the essence of Jiuzhaigou's scenic route.

Some lakes here are vibrantly colored, like a kaleidoscope of ever-changing colors; others are pristine and natural, like a fairyland; and still others are deep and tranquil, like a captivating mirror. Along the way, there are dramatic waterfalls, cornucopia-like rapids, and primeval forests filled with towering ancient trees. The scenic spots are arranged in an orderly manner, staggered in height, and seamlessly transition into a natural landscape, offering a powerful sense of beauty and a thrilling experience.
The colors are so beautiful in autumn. You must see the beautiful scenery given by God.

It is very beautiful and unique and worth visiting.
There is a Y-shaped double ditch on the east side, with concentrated scenery. The original forest will open in the peak season. It seems very good. This is the best ditch with great scenery.
The scenic spots are numerous and densely packed. Walking along the plank path is a picturesque journey. The wooden walkway is framed by mountains and forests on one side, and the ever-so-sighted Jiuzhaigou Water on the other. Although autumn hasn't quite arrived, golden leaves already blanket the trail in patches, creating a stunning spectacle. Moss-covered tree trunks can often be seen along the roadside, likely due to the humid highland climate. The ecology here is complex and diverse, and despite the crowds, the air remains fresh and comfortable. If you pay close attention, you'll discover that every part of Jiuzhaigou is a painting: every pool of water, every mountain, even the spreading tree roots and falling autumn leaves—their beauty is worth savoring.
The scenery is beautiful, it is still beautiful, but the distance is too close, so it is not easy to take portraits

To explore the essence of Jiuzhaigou, you must walk if you have enough time. Walk around the various plank roads, take pictures from all angles. Don’t limit yourself to the most crowded places. Every two steps forward, you will see scenery.

It's so beautiful! Every vantage point offers breathtaking views. I spent two days in the ditch and still haven't seen it all. I'll definitely go back when I have time.

The water is crystal clear, it's amazing, the environment is great, it's comfortable to walk and watch, most of the lakes are similar

The most scenic and beautiful section of Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area is known as the fairy tale world.
This attraction can only be seen from the car when passing by, and it seems that the car does not stop here.
I really like every attraction, but I feel that there is not enough time.
It's so beautiful, it's like a paradise on earth. If I have the chance, I will come again.
If it is sunny, go in the morning, before the sun is at its highest at noon.

Haha, the scenery of Jiuzhaigou is worth the trip~
One of the four valleys in Jiuzhaigou, it is also an important valley, but the scenery is not as good as the other valleys.
At first you will be amazed by the clarity of the water, but after looking around you will become numb because all the lakes are similar.
The lake water is crystal clear and turquoise all year round, and with the change of light and seasons, it presents different tones and water patterns.
It's beyond imagination, very beautiful! ~~~~
The essence of Jiuzhaigou. If you don't have enough time and energy, you can give up other valleys, but you must visit this valley.
Rize Valley is one of the three main valleys in Jiuzhaigou. I feel that the scenery of this valley is the most beautiful in Jiuzhaigou.
The farthest scenic spot in Rizegou is the primeval forest. We did not go there due to time constraints when we were playing there. There was nothing there but forest, so there was no need to go there.
I think if you want to have a good time in this ditch, you have to walk the whole way, so everyone needs to have good physical strength, otherwise it will be very tiring to walk more than 20 kilometers a day.
Regarding the time arrangement of the tour, in order to avoid the peak period, it is best to go in the afternoon when there will be fewer people.
The scenic area's service is in Nuorilang, so there is only a small service point here, which is okay for emergencies.
Very beautiful, very beautiful, very beautiful...
The three dogs are each worth visiting, with different scenery.
Each ditch has its own characteristics, some are big, some are small, and some are high.

Jiuzhaigou. Beauty beyond words!
The ditch with the most attractions is worth a visit. It's pretty good.
The scenery is beautiful, very beautiful, I really want to see it again!
Jiuzhaigou has only three valleys, and each valley has its own unique scenery. It is really hard to describe such a large scenic spot.
Our tour guide told us that Rize Valley is arguably the most worthwhile of Jiuzhaigou's three valleys, and it's best viewed in the morning. After entering the Jiuzhaigou scenic area, everyone boarded a sightseeing bus, which randomly decided which valley to visit first based on the number of visitors entering each valley. We were incredibly lucky; the bus turned right at the Nuorilang Central Station and entered Rize Valley. Everyone on the bus cheered! Since we'd stayed at the Jiuzhaigou entrance the previous day, we woke up early the next morning and lined up to enter the scenic area around 8:00 AM. Fortunately, it wasn't overly crowded.
Midea is a scenic spot with transportation. I don't feel tired while walking and looking at the scenery, but there are too many people.
There are many beautiful sights along the Y-shaped line, and the main attractions are located here.
I went to Jiuzhaigou twice... but I didn't get to see Rize Valley properly...
Compared to the lake, its water is not as green or blue, but it is clear and clean. You can see the reflections of the ancient tree trunks at the bottom of the lake and the trees on the shore. It is very beautiful.
Jiuzhaigou, a 50km-deep valley, gets its name from the nine Tibetan villages within it: Shuzheng, Heye, and Zechawa. The scenic area is composed of three ravines, forming a "Y"-shaped route. Zechawa Ravine is on the left, Rize Ravine is on the right, and Shuzheng Ravine is near the ravine entrance. The fork in the "Y" is the Nuorilang Transfer Station.
