Distant views of Yulong Snow Mountain

❤Yulong Snow Mountain Yulong Snow Mountain is called "Olu" in the Naxi language, meaning "Heavenly Mountain." Its thirteen snow-capped peaks stretch on and on, like a "giant dragon" flying through the sky, hence the name "Yulong" (Jade Dragon). Because its rock is mainly limestone and basalt, it is also called "Black and White Snow Mountain." It is the sacred mountain of the Naxi people, and is said to be the incarnation of the Naxi protector god "Sanduo." 🌟About 15 km north of Lijiang, it is 75 km long. The 13 peaks of the mountain are arranged vertically from south to north, with the highest point of the main peak, Shanzi Dou, at an altitude of 5,596 meters, and the snow line is between 4,800 and 5,000 meters.
