Jiuzihai wetland is one of the important Primula germplasm resources in Yunnan Province. Similar to a vase, it is adjacent to Yulong Snow Mountain. A natural picture is drawn in the forest on the east side of Yulong Snow Mountain. There are more than 30 "tiankengs", like pearls falling from the starry sky. The construction site of ghost axe God is inlaid in the wetland. It is said that these "tiankengs" are the sites where the Ming Dynasty chieftain Mu took earth to burn tiles.

During the rainy season, many "pearls" are inlaid in the green plateau meadow, which has attracted many tourists.
