Apologies for another Blog so soon, but this place deserves a space of its own.

Jiu Zhai Gou is a National Park in Northern Sichuan where glaciers have created a series of emerald coloured lakes, all surrounded by misty peaks. It was raining the day I went which was unfortunate. However, it was still an amazing place, especially since the rain meant I had the place to myself for hours at a time. I really want to come back one day and see the place in Autumn.

These photos don't do the place justice. See the following link:-

Nice blog mate. Did the Chinese ruin the place by charging you to breath? :)
