Jade Dragon Mountain 玉龙雪山
The peaks of Jade Dragon Mountain are covered in snow all year round. From a distance, the mountain looks like a dragon flying among the clouds, hence its name “Jade Dragon Snow Mountain”. It is the soul of Lijiang County and the Naxi minority.
The main peak is called Shanzidou, there is ice on the top and a large forest in the middle. However, at the foot of the peak, people can enjoy spring-like climate almost every day of the year. Shanzidou is a virgin peak; no one has ever climbed it because it is too steep, so people’s imagination is running wild.
The Jade Dragon Snow Mountain attracts millions of visitors every year with its admirable charm and unique scenery. If you are lucky enough to go there, you will be rewarded with the beauty of the forest and the magnificent view of the surrounding mountain ranges.
