Located on a plateau in the northwestern area of China's Sichuan province, the Ruoergai Wetland Reserve is a national level nature reserve known for its high altitude.

The nature reserve's peak stands at 3,697 meters above sea level. The area provides habitat for many rare bird species including the black-necked crane and is home to numerous other wild animals. The wetland reserve has transformed into its autumn finery as can be seen in this latest photo feature filed by People's Daily Online reporters traveling in Sichuan Province.
