Bonsai Beach

Entering the main gate at the mouth of the gully, passing the first lotus leaf village, and continuing forward, you'll reach a travertine beach. This shallow, flat area is covered with weeds, poplars, azaleas, pines, cypresses, willows, and other trees and shrubs. The trees are graceful and the water is emerald green, creating a scene resembling a vast, colorful bonsai, hence the name "Bonsai Beach." Currently, the beach is a bit messy. When I asked the manager, he said they haven't had time to prune it, so it's overgrown.

The Bonsai Beach is home to a sea buckthorn forest of unique shapes. With the perpetually snow-capped mountains in the distance as a backdrop and the shimmering stream at your feet, these old yet tall, thousand-year-old sea buckthorn trees even more unique, magical, and beautiful.

My favorite spot in Shuangqiaogou is here. I visited once before and returned again this time, and I still spent the majority of my time here. I never tire of looking at or taking photos.

The scenery at Bonsai Beach can be mistaken for a Jiuzhaigou attraction. Not only does it share a similar appearance, but it even has a similar name. The reason it resembles a Jiuzhaigou attraction is that this lake, like most of the calcified pools in Jiuzhaigou, is crystal clear, reflecting a brilliant blue in the sunlight. Furthermore, the bonsai created by nature's gardeners in the center of the lake is a giant potted plant made from a century-old sea buckthorn tree.

They say that after visiting Jiuzhaigou, you won’t want to see water. The most amazing thing about Jiuzhaigou is its water. When I reached Laohuhai, I believed it. When there is no wind, the water in Jiuzhaigou is as still as a mirror and full of colors.

Bonsai Beach, also known as "Bonsai Sea" and "Jiazhucuo" in Tibetan, is the first shoal stream landscape upon entering Jiuzhaigou. It gets its name from the fact that the entire site resembles a giant bonsai. Bonsai Beach exhibits a calcified flow pattern, a natural formation formed by the long-term deposition of loose, porous carbonates within the flowing water. Calcification is a crucial foundation of Jiuzhaigou's natural landscape.

It is one of the more unremarkable ones among so many lakes, but since you are not walking there, you might as well take a look if you have time.

This scenic spot is very close to the ditch mouth. Most people pass by by car. The small trees here grow from the children, like bonsai one by one. The name of the sea is true to its name.

Our first ford stream landscape upon entering Jiuzhaigou was Bonsai Beach. Passing Heye Village, we arrived at a shallow beach known as Bonsai Beach. The entire site resembles a giant bonsai. Strange rocks dot the beach, and without artificial carving, the trees stand like bonsai in the water, captivating and endearing. Bonsai Beach is Jiuzhaigou's three-dimensional light music. The melodious sound of flowing water, birdsong, and the fascinating bonsai trees intertwine to create a tranquil and captivating melody, inviting reverie.

The continuous deposition of carbonates formed the current calcified landforms

A place worth visiting, a wonder of nature

I still remember it clearly, the name is well-deserved, it feels very good

Bonsai Beach gets its name from the dried-up sea buckthorn trees in the stream. They are still standing upright in a staggered manner, with a clear stream at their feet reflecting the snow-capped mountains in the distance. A kind of peerless and desolate beauty is quietly outlined here, creating a natural landscape bonsai painting.

I met him on the way back, it was pretty good.

The first water attraction in Shuzhenggou is also the first water attraction when entering Jiuzhaigou. However, according to the order of the tour, it is the last attraction to visit before leaving Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area. It may be the last attraction. I feel a little tired from the journey. It may also be that the characteristic of this attraction lies in the combination of water and various plants growing on it. The most beautiful season is spring. We missed the most beautiful season. In short, the feeling of Bonsai Beach is quite average. It is similar to the water shrub forest between the Shuzheng Group Seas or Pearl Beach.

A very unique place with trees of various shapes and sizes

The travertine beach is densely populated with willows, cypresses, poplars, pines, and azaleas. Travertine deposits around the tree trunks form natural bonsai formations.

We took a few photos before boarding the sightseeing bus back to the gully entrance.

Bonsai Beach is 2,167 meters above sea level and 0.8 meters deep. Debris flows formed a gentle terrace here, and long-term calcification and sedimentation have shaped the present-day Bonsai Beach.

There are also strange rocks dotted in the beach, and there is no artificial carving, making these trees stand in the water like bonsai, which is lovely and adorable.

It was noon, the sun was out, and we sat down on the wooden boardwalk, basking in the sun while listening to the melodious sound of water. The moving natural music was so refreshing and delightful. It was truly a special concert.

My friends and I couldn't help but admire the wonders of nature. We were also glad that we were not afraid of the cold winter, the high altitude, and the long distance and decided to come to Jiuzhaigou. It was worth the trip!

This is the last attraction of my Jiuzhaigou trip in February. Because this area is shallow, the water is not as blue as above, and it is much less beautiful than the ones above. However, the various shrubs growing in the water are also another beautiful sight.

Jiuzhaigou's more ordinary scenery, no time to ignore

When we took the shuttle bus into Jiuzhaigou, the first surprise we saw was Bonsai Beach. It was very beautiful. The whole lake looked like a huge bonsai, beautiful and spectacular.

Each of Jiuzhaigou's lakes has its own unique characteristics, and the entire scenic area is composed of these colorful lakes. Each lake has a different color, and in the golden autumn of October, the colorful forest echoes the color, making it truly worthy of being called God's palette! That kind of beauty can only be appreciated with the eyes, and cannot be captured in photos!

As a landscape in Jiuzhaigou, it is slightly inferior ~ but it can definitely become a landscape in its own right if taken out!

The various colorful streams are like bonsai of different sizes and are called Bonsai Beach. It is really beautiful.

Did it change its name? Back then it was called Pearl Beach.

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.

Bonsai Beach features a calcified flow pattern, a natural formation formed by the long-term deposition of loose, porous carbonates in flowing water. Why are the trees in Jiuzhaigou's waters so diverse and varied? The main reason is that Jiuzhaigou's water is low in sodium and high in calcium. This excess calcium in the trees creates the bizarre bonsai formations found on Bonsai Beach today.

There are many calcified bonsai beach landscapes in Jiuzhaigou, such as Rhino Lake, Tiger Lake and Princess Lake. However, there is a station for exiting the ditch at Bonsai Beach. After viewing the Reed Sea, I just walked here and took a look.

I didn't get to visit Bonsai Beach, but looking out the car window, it was so beautiful, with its vibrant blue hues, much prettier than I'd imagined. It's a shame we ran out of time. I'll see next time.

A scenic spot close to the ditch mouth, where you can take pictures of the forest on the water

Bonsai Beach is the first scenic spot after entering Jiuzhaigou Valley. It is more beautiful in the rainy season with abundant water and green trees, but it is a bit desolate in the dry season.

I'm almost out of the groove here, maybe I'm aesthetically fatigued, I feel so-so

This is near the end of the scenic area, and there are not too many tourists coming to see this view. Most tourists are rushing to squeeze onto the scenic area bus. This scenic area is not as beautiful and spectacular as the main scenic areas, nor does it have those exquisite and elegant styles. What is here is only the primitive ruggedness and the naked natural beauty!

It’s time to leave the valley. I’ve seen too many beautiful sights in Jiuzhaigou, and there’s really nothing to see here.

Plants like bonsai grow in shallow water. It is true that the forest grows in the water and the water flows in the forest.

The trees in the water are of different shapes, and if they are moved into the pot, they will become a typical bonsai.

Rhododendrons, willows, pines, cypresses, alpine willows, and various shrubs stand in the water, forming natural bonsai of various shapes and sizes.
