Yulong Snow Mountain - Located 25 kilometers north of Lijiang, Yulong Snow Mountain is the southernmost snow-capped mountain in China. All year around, snow falls on it peaks, which are frequently lost in the clouds and fog. Looking from a distance, the mountain resembles a Jade Dragon (Yulong), which is how it got its name.
