The clear water flowing down from the high, far snow-covered mountain forms crystal-clear, shallow and sparkling pools with a tier upon tier.

It is such surpassing beautiful landscapes that visitors seem to have entered a fairyland. (If weather not permitted, Huanglong will be replaced by Mounigou Gully.
