Jade Dragon Snow Mountain
15 kilometers north of Lijiang County Town, this magnificent snow-capped mountain sprawls 35 kilometers from north to south. Owing to the different altitudes of the mountain part, a combination of multifarious climates and temperatures is conspicuous and is attributed to the mountain's modern oceanic glacial period. The mountain is well-known habitat of azaleas and rhododendrons. Thanks to the cable way of 2968 meters, tourists can easily reach the spot which is 4500m above sea level to enjoy the perpetual snow there.
