Just take a look, wouldn't you terliuq... I have been aiming this for the past 3-5 years (seriously, Santorini was even longer ler kan), wouldn't you too.
This place is located in China and it is called Jiu Zhai Gou Valley or literally "Valley of Nine Villages" is a nature reserve and national park located in the Aba Tibetan Qiang Autonomous Prefecture of Sichuan Province, Jiuzhaigou Valley was inscribed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1992 and a World Biosphere Reserve in 1997. It belongs to the category V (Protected Landscape) in the IUCN system of protected area categorization.
How to get here?
Since 2003, it has been possible to fly from Chengdu or Chongqing to Jiuzhai Huanglong Airport on a 11,311 ft (3,448 m) high mountain side near Songpan County, and then take an hour-long bus ride to Huanglong, or a 90-minute bus ride to Jiuzhaigou. From 2006, a daily flight to Xi'an had been opened in peak season and new flights are being added all the time from different parts of China. In October 2009 new direct flights were added from Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou. Jiuzhaigou or Huanglong National Parks did not experience any damage during the earthquake of May 2008 and never closed after the event.
All above content is from Mr. Wikipedia, another interesting site is Jiuzhai Valley National Park. My suggestion is to do a DIY trip and then get local agent to take you here on a day trip, reason being my friend whom just got back was upset with our very own country travel agency as they did not take her up the cable car nor up to the highest level. I remembered she saying that went up to the 3rd station and was rush down to proceed to the next itinerary (that's why I do DIY nowadays, duh!).
Another place would be the above....Xian. I dream of this since school days.... I studied them but successfully failed to remember with flying colours, bila ler agak nye dapat jejak bertapak kat sini(s).
So, sapa sapa nak pegi sini, jangan lupa I tau!!!
