Mirror Lake
It is situated at 2,386 meters’ altitude in the main valley of the Jiuzhaigou Valley. It has an average width of 105 meters, an average length of 1,050 meters and an acreage of about 110,000 square meters. The Mirror Haizi is formed by the landslide substances that block the valley. After being calcified, substances that blocked the Haizi formed a large platform, on which calcified mounds separate it into two smaller lakes.

In recent years, great amount of sand has been brought down into the Mirror Haizi from the Danzu valley. Because of the deposit of sand, the aquatic grass at the back of the Mirror Haizi is now growing toward its center gradually, which result the shrinking of the Haizi.
