“The Nine-Headed Crown of Sichuan”

Iconic Icon — Juiding Mountain

Juiding Mountain (also spelled Jiuding Mountain, 九顶山) is a beautiful and iconic peak in Sichuan Province, China. The name means “Nine Summits Mountain”, because the mountain has nine dramatic peaks lined up like a crown in the sky.

The most iconic thing about Jiuding Mountain is its alpine meadows, snow-capped peaks, and stunning sea of clouds that often float around the summits. In spring and summer, the meadows bloom with colorful wildflowers, making it look like a hidden paradise — people often compare it to Switzerland’s alpine scenery.

It’s also known for clear streams, glaciers, forests, and rich Tibetan culture in the surrounding area. Hikers and nature lovers come for the panoramic views, the sunrise above the clouds, and the feeling of standing at the “roof” of Sichuan.
