Blue Moon Valley, Lijiang, Yunnan Province: A magical area at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, where white stones and blue water intertwine

[Blue Moon Valley | Lijiang, Yunnan Province "A magical area at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, interwoven with white stone and blue water"] — After disembarking from the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain cable car, a short walk leads to a "different world." This is Blue Moon Valley. The deep blue water, white limestone, and the peaks of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the background. The beauty is so sculpted that it's almost man-made. But this landscape is a natural creation of meltwater and calcium. The passage of time is so clear that just walking through it awakens you. ⸻ 📍 [Location & Access] ・Location: Jade Dragon Snow Mountain Scenic Area, Lijiang City, Yunnan Province ・Access: Get off the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain Ropeway → Approximately 15 minutes by private bus or electric cart ・From the city, it is common to use the transportation included in your Jade Dragon Snow Mountain sightseeing ticket. 🕰️ [Sightseeing Hours] ・8:30 AM - 5:00 PM (may vary depending on the season and weather) ・The light is stronger during the day, making the water surface appear more vibrant. 💰 [Cost] ・Admission Fee: Usually included in your Jade Dragon Snow Mountain sightseeing ticket. ・Electric cart: Approximately 20-30 NTD (also possible to walk). ⸻ 💎 Recommended Points • The contrast between the deep blue water surface and the white riverbed is breathtaking. → The water is so clear you'll wonder if it's really natural. • The composition with Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the background is stunning. → A perfect place for taking photos that photography enthusiasts will love. • A mystical atmosphere permeates the tranquility. → Though it's not a flashy tourist destination, its beauty will stop you in your tracks. • When you touch the shallow water, you can feel the coldness of the melting snow. ⸻ 📸 Tips ・To capture the blue color, the light is best between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM. ・The water looks clearer on sunny days. Even cloudy or rainy days create a magical atmosphere. ・Sneakers are recommended as some areas are slippery due to the limestone. ・Stroll slowly on foot instead of using the electric cart to enjoy the scenery in detail. ・Don't miss the suspension bridges and small waterfalls along the way. ⸻ #BlueMoonValley #LijiangTourism #AbsolutelyFreeTrip
