Jiuzhaigou is as much mystique as it is wonder. Over the years, this nature reserve and national park has captivated visitors with its chromatic lakes, mini valleys, and jagged silver waterfalls. Majestic has always been the term to describe the region. And it’s no wonder Ritz-Carlton Reserve chose to make its debut in China in this valley of exceptional natural beauty. The name of the resort, Rissai Valley, is derived from the Tibetan word for “village” and is also a thread that ties the name back to Jiuzhaigou, which means “nine villages” in Chinese.
Set within a 72,000-ha nature reserve, the resort is just a 20-minute drive away from the Jiuzhaigou National Park. No matter where you find yourself within this reserve, you’ll always be surrounded by mountain views — it feels as if you are standing right at the top of the world. Pristine yet ancient, Rissai Valley makes the case for just the right amount of old and new with its elegant design and Tibetan heritage décor. This is a place that persuades you to get off the grid and relax into a hard-to-come-by serenity.
