What is the impact of Jiuzhaigou earthquake on scenic spots? Can it be restored?

After the August 8 earthquake, some scenic spots in Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area were damaged, among which the Huohuahai and Nuorilang Waterfalls were seriously damaged and almost "disappeared".

It is undeniable that the natural landscape is mainly formed under the influence of the natural environment, and the internal and external forces of the earth work together, which is itself a precious property endowed by nature to mankind. Earthquake is one of the important natural forces, and the formation of many natural landscapes is affected by the earthquake, including some beautiful natural landscapes including Haizi in Jiuzhaigou. However, this does not mean that scenic spots damaged in the earthquake should not be restored. Whether the tourist attractions damaged in Jiuzhaigou earthquake should be restored can not be simply said to be restored, nor can it be rudely said to never be restored. The key is to look at the actual situation and treat it differently.

For damaged scenic spots that have been difficult to restore, or landscapes that have completely disappeared and been directly destroyed, or damaged scenic spots must be restored through huge projects in the process of restoration, the restoration of scenic spots directly becomes the creation of new scenic spots. If this is the case, then it is definitely not necessary and should not restore the damaged scenic spots, just keep the damaged scenic spots as they are. After all, for tourists, what they want to see is natural landscape, not man-made natural landscape. Moreover, some damaged scenic spots have become new unique and beautiful landscapes, or will gradually form new landscapes and become new gifts from nature in the future, so there is no need to implement restoration projects.

But for those damaged scenic spots that can be restored without expensive projects, restoration projects should be implemented. Otherwise, it is obviously a great loss for Jiuzhaigou tourism, and it also makes potential tourists who have never been to Jiuzhaigou lose the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful scenery. In the final analysis, the gift of nature can become a popular attraction for tourists, because it has unique functions and beautiful scenery. Destroyed scenic spots, even if they are caused by nature, will not become scenic spots as long as they lose their beauty and are no longer beautiful, but just ordinary natural features.

On the other hand, it is a common practice at home and abroad to implement some human intervention to restore many scenic spots damaged by the earthquake, whether it is natural landscape or human landscape. From this perspective, there is no need to directly refuse to restore the natural landscape destroyed in the earthquake.

Of course, it should be noted that even if the scenic spots damaged in the earthquake are restored, they may not be completely restored to the original appearance and appearance before the earthquake. They should not only integrate the natural features formed after the earthquake, but also combine the new seismic design. They should try their best to preserve the original natural features and let tourists see more original natural landscapes.

If it is artificial repair, there is no need to go, naturally, let nature take its course.
