Special Mention
The most amazing travertine formations in the area are those in Yellow Dragon Gully. The travertine formations in the gully fall in eight groups，consisting of over 3 400 travertine pools linked together by travertine waterfalls and shoal flows to form a complete hydrological whole before joining in the source of Fujiang River.
黄龙地表钙华景观以黄龙沟最为出色。沟内共有8群彩池，3 400余个钙华池，山钙华滩流、钙华瀑布等相连、相串，注人涪江源流，形成一个完铭的水文地质单元。
Each colorful pool of the eight groups is different in size，shape，and feature.The first group at the gully entrance are Flower Bathing(Xihua)lakes，blended with the greens of thick trees. They are situated with a beauty of variation and order，like mirrors inlaid on the golden or silver travertine formations，shining under the azure blue sky as the introduction to the attractions in the gully. Waters burble down from one step to another，tinkling as a welcome melody，and visitors warmly name it as Guest Welcoming Pond. The highest group of Jadeite Bathing Ponds are made up of 693 colorful pools，altogether occupying 21 056m} as the largest pond group in Yellow Dragon area. Rich in all colors in the sunshine，the ponds are just like brilliant dishes of green jade. The ancient logs and vines sunk in the water are turned into artistic treasures by the travertine through the years，creating an underwater world with infinite illusions.
