Take a tour of Huanglong Scenic Area in Sichuan, China - part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

The Huanglong (hoo-ang-long) Scenic Area, in China, is a place of such incredible beauty that it is almost otherworldly.

Flowing through the floor of this valley is one of the tributaries of a river.
Limestone pools, many of which are lipped with golden color, have slowly formed within the waters of this river.

On a bright day, the shimmering pools look like scales on a dragon whose body is the river.

The valley's name – Huanlong - means Yellow Dragon.

As the bright waters flow, many exotic and fascinating types of animals can be seen moving about the park here.
