Introduction

This is a famous attraction in Jiuzhaigou - Mirror Lake, named after its water surface is as calm as a mirror. The blue sky and white clouds in the morning, the distant mountains and trees reflect perfectly on the water on windless days. There are many giant trees in the Mirror Lake, up to 20-30 meters long, half floating and sinking. The tops of two giant trees are even partially exposed to the surface of the water, as beautiful as a potted landscape in the center of the lake. If you want to enjoy the beauty of Mirror Lake, the best time is before 9 am and after 5 pm in sunny weather.
