Private Tour From Lijiang: Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, Baisha and Longquan Village

After pickup from your Lijiang hotel, enjoy the views as you journey north by private, air-conditioned vehicle to the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.

On route, learn the history of this revered mountain range, and hear some of the archaic legends that surround it. Consisting of 13 peaks, the 22-mile (35-kilometer) range hosts the southernmost glacier in the northern hemisphere, and gets its name from its resemblance to a snow-laden dragon - one of China's enduring symbols.

Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Glacier Park

On arrival, ride a cable car to a scenic viewing point, and marvel at the spectacular glacier and mountain views. Then, after descending, continue to the village of Baisha, set beneath the mountain, and a traditional home of the Naxi people. This ethnic community is descended from nomadic clans, and boast a distinctive culture, language and traditions.
