About this place

Altitude 2,995m  depth 6.6m  , area 5,645m2 

The Five Coloured Pool is one of Jiuzhai Valley's smallest but most colourful lakes. Its colours are a result of travertine sedimentation on the uneven lakebed, as well as various algae. But legend has it that the pond was where Goddess Semo washed and combed her hair and Dage came everyday to bring her water. The pool's colours are said to come from Semo's rouge coming off her pretty face and colouring the water
