Immortal pool

Shenxianchi scenic spot is located in the southern part of Minshan mountains in Northwest Sichuan Plateau. The main scenic spots are distributed in a 3000 meter long and 311 meter wide Alpine canyon. There are more than 2000 colorful travertine pools and terraced fields. Some of them are like coral, some are like agate, and some are like pearls. It's like being in Huanglong. Recently, geologists have made a comprehensive investigation on the genesis and geological conditions of shenxianchi. It is pointed out in the formed "reconnaissance report" that "the calcification rate of shenxianchi is 10 times that of Huanglong scenic spot, which is the highest in the world in modern calcification deposition rate, so it has high scientific research value." In view of its high calcium content and fast calcification precipitation, a unique calcification tourist souvenir in the world is being developed. Tourists only need to choose their favorite items (such as stones, rock pieces, leaves, etc.) in the scenic area, put them in the water to precipitate, and then take them away after special technology processing. What's particularly surprising is that shenxianchi not only has the wonder of Huanglong, but also has the beauty of Jiuzhaigou. Among them, Qinglong sea and shenfrog sea are the same as the big and small Haizi in Jiuzhaigou: dead trees lie at the bottom of the water, moss spreads all over the water bank, and there is no trace of calcification, which even geologists can't explain. Shenxianchi not only has an altitude of more than 2000 meters, but also has a relative drop of more than 300 meters, which makes it very accessible to tourists.

synonym

Shenxianchi generally refers to shenxianchi scenic area

Shenxianchi scenic spot is located in Jiuzhaigou County, the southern part of Minshan mountains in Northwest Sichuan Plateau. It is far away from Jiuzhaigou. It is called "nenensangcuo" in Tibetan, which means the place where fairies bathe. Its main scenic spots are distributed in a 3000 meter long and 300 meter wide Alpine canyon.

Features of scenic spots

The altitude of shenxianchi is only more than 2200 meters, and the relative height of each scenic spot is only more than 300 meters. It has long been said that there is a "immortal pool" in Jiuzhai. People who have been there all say that nature really loves Sichuan. It not only gives Jiuzhaigou, the "fairy tale world" in Sichuan, and Huanglong, the "human yaochi", but also has such a beautiful fairy pool integrating Jiuzhai and Huanglong.

Main attractions

The whole scenic spot is surrounded by boundless primeval forest. The terrain around it is precipitous. There are more than 10 peaks above 4000 meters above sea level. There are overlapping peaks, deep meandering streams, and shrouded by clouds. It gives people a feeling of ethereal mystery, tranquility and seclusion.

When you enter shenxianchi scenic area, you can walk slowly along the ancient wooden plank road, surrounded by lush forests. Between the branches of green pines and cypresses and red birches, there are lovely squirrels passing through from time to time. The hillsides are surrounded by yellow and milky white calcium, forming a unique basin like calcification pool and calcification slope, which are stacked in front of each other layer. The water color in the pool emits a unique "Jiuzhai blue", which is not like eating fireworks. I think only fairies are suitable for bathing in this kind of landscape.

Tourism information

There is no direct road connection between shenxianchi and Jiuzhaigou. Ganhaizi is the transfer station connecting the two scenic spots. From Jiuzhaigou to Ganhaizi, you can directly charter a car for 18 kilometers. The fare is about 50 yuan. You can bargain with the driver.

Note: taxis can only get to the shenxianchi reception center here, and then take the shuttle bus of shenxianchi scenic spot at the gate of Jiuzhai Paradise to the restaurant, and then take the battery car from the restaurant. It takes about 90 minutes to visit the immortal pool.
