China evacuated stranded tourists from the UNESCO World Heritage site of Jiuzhaigou on Monday after mudslides triggered by heavy rain, state broadcaster CCTV reported, as authorities issued the highest flash-flood alert for parts of the country in the wake of Typhoon Noul.
Jiuzhaigou, in southwestern Sichuan province, is famous for its fairyland landscape with blue, green and purple pools, snow-capped peaks, lakes and multi-tiered waterfalls.
CCTV said some of the key tourist sites had been closed and stranded tourists were being safely evacuated.
