    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest Area, located in Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan Province, China, is a World Biosphere Reserve known for its exceptional natural beauty and rich ecosystem. It is home to broad-leaf temperate forests, mountainous regions, and ancient glacial remnants, providing critical habitats for many endangered species, such as giant pandas, golden monkeys, and antelopes. As a settlement for the Tibetan and Qiang ethnic groups, Jiuzhaigou also features a unique cultural heritage, which contributes to its designation as a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Jiuzhaigou attracts millions of tourists every year. Despite the economic benefits of tourism, this popularity stresses the local ecological environment. In response, the local authorities have implemented a GIS-based Integrated Monitoring System to manage natural resource data efficiently, and a Smart Tourism Platform that adjusts eco-buses routes based on the tourist capacity, thus easing the impact during busy seasons. These measures have played a positive role in achieving SDG 12. B and SDG 15.1/4/5/9, promoting sustainable tourism and environmental conservation.]]></dcterms:description>
