[2025 Yulong Attraction] Travel Guide for Jingtan Lake (Updated Jul)

🏔️Snow Mountain Kiss: Standing on the west bank of Jingtan Lake, the sharp edges of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain are reflected in the cobalt blue water. When the shadows of clouds pass over the main peak, the water surface is shimmering with tiny diamond lights. When the glacial wind blows through the tips of your hair and snow particles float on your eyelashes, it feels like you are in the North of "A Song of Ice and Fire". 💧Blue Moon Secret Realm: The lake water has a magical blue color due to the presence of copper sulfate, peacock green on cloudy days and Tiffany blue on sunny days. The gravel on the lake bottom is clearly visible, and the submerged plants sway with the waves, as if you can see the water elves putting sapphire hairpins in their hair. ❄️Glacier Pearls: The fir forest by the lake is covered with rime, and snow tea blooms among the moss. In the early morning of winter, a thin layer of ice forms on the surface of the lake, and the sounds of ice cracking and avalanches resonate in the valley, as if the earth is telling an ancient legend. #Mainland Travel

📍Detailed address: Blue Moon Valley Scenic Area is a scenic area at the eastern foot of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in Yulong County, Lijiang City, Yunnan Province. 👍Most Recommended: Blue Moon Lake – famous for its turquoise waters and stunning snow-capped mountain backdrop. (Although we didn’t reach the top of the highest snow mountain, I was lucky enough to see the true appearance of the snow mountain in Blue Moon Valley🏔️!) ❤Recommendation reason: Legend has it that Blue Moon Valley is a sapphire lost by heaven, which drifted to the foot of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and became a pool of sentimental tears on this land. The Blue Moon Valley was formed when the eternal ice and snow of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain melted and flowed down the cliffs, continuously gathering into mountain streams and creeks, and finally formed a crystal clear river in the deep valley upstream. 🌟Highlights: 🌈Yuye Lake——The water is very clear, and the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain not far away is reflected in the blue lake, like a beautiful landscape painting. 🌈Jingtan Lake - A very small scenic spot in Blue Moon Valley. It looks small and exquisite, but very quiet. The lake water here is particularly clear, just like the taste of "Jiuzhaigou Mirror Sea". 🌈Blue Moon Lake——surrounded by lush green trees, clear and emerald green. If you go there in summer, you can wander freely among the green shade and cool lake water and enjoy the "beauty" that summer brings. 🌈Tingtao Lake——The water level of the lake drops greatly, and the stream flows through it like a waterfall, making a "ding-dong" sound, just like the sound of a sheng or a piano, hence the name. 🚌Transportation within the scenic area: Blue Moon Valley - Get off at the second stop of the scenic area bus, "Shuiyue Pavilion", and stroll along the plank road. Along the way, you can see Tingtao Lake, Jingtan Lake, Blue Moon Lake, Yuye Lake, etc.

#triptravelchina 📌 Blue Moon Valley | 蓝月谷 📌 🔹 Blue Moon Valley, also known as 'Little Jiuzhaigou (小九寨沟)', is a famous natural tourist attraction in the Naxi Yulong Autonomous County, Lijiang City, Yunnan Province, southwest China. It is said that when viewed from a distance, the valley resembles a blue crescent moon embedded in the foot of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. The color of the water in this lake is caused by the melting snow on the mountain that flows together, making the water in this area a beautiful, clear turquoise blue, similar to the water in the lake of Jiuzhaigou. 🔹 The river in the Blue Moon Valley is the same river that flows in layers through the valley. Until it becomes four large and beautiful lakes: Level 1, Yu Yue Lake (玉液湖), Level 2, Jingtan Lake (镜潭湖), Level 3, Lan Yue Lake (蓝月湖), and Level 4, Dingtao Lake (听涛湖). Although it is called the Blue Moon Valley, the river here is not only green and turquoise. Because sometimes when it rains, the limestone sediment that is submerged in the water will float up and mix with the water above, creating a white, cloudy river. It is also called 'Baishuihe (白水河)' or 'White Stream'. 🗻🌙 .
