The Ethereal Colored Pools of Huanglong

Nestled at the highest point of the Huanglong Scenic Area, the Colored Pools are the most exquisite among thousands of travertine-formed pools. With crystal-clear water and mineral-rich beds, the pools shimmer in dazzling shades of blue, green, and yellow under sunlight, like jewels inlaid deep within the forests. Often shrouded in mist and clouds, the scenery here shifts endlessly, earning the poetic title "Fairyland on Earth."
