Introduction

Located in Jiuzhaigou, Sichuan, Panda Lake has an altitude of 2587 meters, a depth of 14 meters, and covers an area of 90,000 square meters. It is an oasis for giant pandas, as they are often seen here. The unique texture of the rock walls along the lake is reflected in the water, and natural black and white panda-like patterns have formed on the white stones.

It is said that giant pandas love to visit this area to roam, drink, and search for food. Therefore, this lake is affectionately called Panda Lake.
