Jade Dragon Snow Mountain!!

Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is located in Lijiang, Yunnan Province. It is the mountain range closest to the equator in the northern hemisphere with year-round snow. It is located across the river from Zhongdian Snow Mountain and Mianmian Mountain, and extends from the mouth of the three rivers to the north latitude 27°, like a fan facing the ancient city.

It is covered with snow all year round, and the snow line height is between 4,800 and 5,000 meters. It has developed the temperate maritime glacier closest to the equator in Eurasia. Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is called "Oulu" in Naxi language, which means "Tianshan". Its thirteen snow peaks are continuous, like a "giant dragon" flying and flying, so it is called "Jade Dragon".
