Jiuzhaigou ( 九寨溝) : Gold Tree?

This photo is taken in Jiuzhaigou. What attracts me at that time is the colour of the tree. The branches looks like bright gold colour from afar. I have no idea what contributes to the gold colour. Tree sap? I don't know what is the name of the tree as well.. Anyone has any idea?

I'm afraid I don't know the name of that particular tree - but it's wonderful whatever it's called.

Thanks for the eye-opener!
