Historical evolution

For thousands of years, Jiuzhaigou has been hidden in the mountains of Northwest Sichuan Plateau, and human activities have been insignificant. The Tibetan people in this area are almost isolated from the world and live a life of self-sufficiency in agriculture and animal husbandry. Due to the high mountains and long road, Jiuzhaigou has always been little known.

In 1975, a working group of the Ministry of agriculture, forestry and Fisheries of the people's Republic of China made a comprehensive investigation of Jiuzhaigou and concluded that Jiuzhaigou not only contains rich and precious animal and plant resources, but also is a rare scenic spot in the world. In the same year, Professor Wu Zhonglun, a famous forester, made a comprehensive investigation of Jiuzhaigou. He was on the scene, full of emotion: "I have been to several countries in Europe and the United States, and I have never seen such wonderful natural scenery, which must be well protected." he immediately informed the provincial forestry department and wrote to the Sichuan provincial government. Provincial Forestry Department immediately issued a document to Nanping County Forestry Bureau: "Jiuzhaigou chawa, rizegou 200 meters away can be felled.". This is the earliest measure taken by the forestry department to protect Jiuzhaigou.
