I thought that the most beautiful scenery in autumn was in Jiuzhaigou, Sichuan,

Yaochi, jade basin, deep valleys and ravines, and the sea of clouds stretched to the sky

, until I saw Shangri-La

I realized that the most beautiful autumn was Yunnan

Yulong Snow Mountain is the second largest mountain in Yunnan after Meili Snow Mountain. Under the snow line, the grass is green and the scenery is pleasant. Thousands of tourists come to Yulong Snow Mountain every year. However, few people know that no one has ever climbed this beautiful snow-capped mountain.

Although you can't enjoy the mountains at a glance, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery at the foot of Yulong Mountain. At the foot of Yulong Mountain, there are many special attractions, among which Blue Moon Valley is the most beautiful.

The lake is quiet, blue and charming, and the snow-capped mountains can be faintly seen on the snowy lake, which is very much like a dynamic oil painting. Standing by the Blue Moon Lake and looking at the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, the snow is covered with snow, forming a beautiful masterpiece with the blue sky and white clouds, which is unforgettable.

The Blue Moon Valley was formerly known as the White Water River, which was formed by melting snow and glaciers from the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain into a single river. The stones through which the river flows are made of limestone and are gray in color, making the river clearer. Gives it the name to make it look like a white river.

There are four large lakes in Blue Moon Valley, all of which have very beautiful names: Tan Lake, Blue Moon Lake, Tingtao Lake and Yuye Lake.

In addition to the beautiful name, the lake color here also has its own characteristics. When sunlight shines on it from different angles, it takes on different colors. The colorful lake water is truly enchanting.

In the beginning, this is not a tourist attraction, but a place for tourists to relax on the way to Yak Flat or Spruce Flat. During this period, many tourists are attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of them and stop to admire them. In particular, a small waterfall similar to the "White Water Terrace" is loved by tourists and has gradually become a landscape of today's Yulong Snow Mountain, attracting many tourists who make a special trip to Blue Moon Valley.

The beauty of Blue Moon Valley cannot be described in words. Only when people are there can they realize how charming the clear lake water and blue sky are. Standing in this picturesque place, people's hearts will be purified and their mood will become very good.

The sun shines on the blue lake, the water sparkles and dazzles, and it is natural that the lake is surrounded by dense pine forests. Although most people cannot climb the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and feel its magnificence, they can still stop at the foot of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain to enjoy the Blue Moon Valley.

Even if you can't go to the majestic Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, you can also see the majestic posture of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain here in a panoramic view and find the right angle, Take pictures of the beautiful snow-capped mountains reflected on the lake.

The plank road winds and twists by the lake, walking by the lake in front of the first snow, even if the wind is cold, my heart is happy to bloom, quietly enjoying the beautiful scenery in front of me.

Notes

The Blue Moon Valley at the foot of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is actually not the same as the Shika Snow Mountain and the Blue Moon Valley. Blue Moon Valley is Shangri-La, the birthplace of Naxi culture, while Blue Moon Valley in Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is a canyon from Spruce Flat to Maoniuping.
