Ecologists are very worried about the serious consequences of the continuous drought on the Eco system of the lakes as well as the whole Yangtze River Valley.

Heavy rains had already pushed many lakes and rivers in the Yangtze Valley close to flooding by early July 2010, and rain kept falling.

Every year, visitors from all over the world come to admire the mountains, lakes, streams, trees, underground springs and waterfalls which make Jiuzhaigou Valley an area of outstanding natural beauty.
