We are going up this snowy mountain -玉龍雪山. It has a small chance to view the tip of the mountain all-year round

there is a plateau at the mid-level of the snow mountain

　

you will only wear these things once in a life time ;-p

　

Going down, very steep cable car again

The snowy mountain can be seen from the city (taken at the front of our hotel)

This is a viewpoint at the edge of the snowy mountain. 白水台.. It is formed by calcium sediment

　

The very famous ancient town-麗江古城, there are still indigenous people living in the town. Some areas are developed into souvenir shops, restaurants, and inns.

The whole town is intertwined by waterways originally built few hundred years ago

people put these lotus-shape lanterns in the waterways to make wishes
