Over across the Feicui (Emerald) River, the Zharu Bridge is built in a typical Tibetan wood-bridge style. The supporting logs are wrapped in fences, the roadway is paved with unpainted wood plates. The roof is made of tree barks, in their original color, too, presenting an endeared and plain feeling. On the handrails hang colorful kha-btags which are dancing pleasantly in gentle winds, like intangible hands opening up to tourists. Walking on the bridge, yon will see the rapid torrents below, peculiar pines in a distance, worn-out canoes, and carving traces on the Baojing Cliff. Now, you begin your endless imagi nations.

Located at the entrance of the Zharu Gully, the Baojing (Magic Mirror) Cliff is 400 meters high. This giant rock erects on the stream bank, the wall is as flat as being cut by a sharp sward. Looking from a distance, you will find it resembles a huge magic mirror. Legend has it that, the mirror was built up by Zhayi Zhaga, King of All Mountains, The mirror suppressed down a demon that used lo cruelly treat local folks. Hence, it is also called the Demon-Suppressing Cliff.

One is higher than the other in altitude, the Dalian (Saddlebag) Lake sits surrounded by green grasses, with one stream connecting both ponds. Between summer and autumn, flowers and grass are in their full growth, filling the “bags” with fragrance and beauty.

Sitting opposite to the Saddlebag Lake and surrounded by full slopes of fragrant grasses, The Hei (Black) Lake covers an area of 5 mu (1 mu=677 sq.m.). One of its features is that you see different color hues or ambience from different angles and at different time. The spot is often covered with sensitive clouds, above, and when you shout to it, a rapid rain will pour down.

Among overlapping ranges, Sacred Mountain Zhayi Zhaga shapes like a shape sword erecting straight into the sky. Looking upward, you will feel its chill. At clear dusk when the sun sheds its slanting rays down, sunglow spreading, the peak is bathed in golden sunlight. In rainy days, mists cloud the peak in the boundless sky. Walking around, you will feel you are riding on clouds.

On the 15th of every month of the Chinese lunar calendar. Tibetans from Jiuzhaigou as well as nearby Nanping and Songpan counties come to pay their homage to the mountain by circling around on fool. May 15th, Mazi Festival is the climax of the annual mountain-circling ceremony. Believers, in groups, on horse or foot, walk to complete a full circle around the mountain in a counter clockwise direction, spreading kha- blags and singing religious songs. Some pious believers of the Benbo Sect would move forward on their knees to kowtow once every three steps. The mountain circling event usually lasts 2 to 3 days. From on the slope runs down the Zharu Waterfall where you will see the divine springs of Qubu and Qumo. People come over to drink water in order to purify their mind and to drive out diseases and disasters. At rest, they sit around and propose toasts for each other's blessing.
