Blue Moon Valley: A Must-Visit in Lijiang

How can you not go to Yulong Snow Mountain when you go to Lijiang? This time I would like to share with you the Blue Moon Valley that Yulong must visit - known as "Little Jiuzhaigou", the blue lake reflects the snow-capped mountains, so quiet that people forget time. The highlight of the trip is that you can see the beautiful blue lake, enjoy the yaks up close, and feel the magnificence and tranquility of nature! 🌊 Attraction inventory: Blue Moon Valley photo guide First stop: Blue Moon Valley Lake As soon as we got off the bus, we saw the clear indigo blue lake, which perfectly captured the reflection of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain📸. It is recommended that you must bring your camera/mobile phone to prepare Memory burst, different angles are beautiful to delete. Walking around the lake, the cool breeze blows, it really feels like a paradise. The flow of people is not too much on weekdays, and the healing rate is extremely high. Second stop: Yak Meadow You will see large numbers of yaks grazing leisurely near the Blue Moon Valley. The yaks have thick fur and are very cute💕. You can also take pictures with yaks, but remember not to move too much, they are afraid of life - full of wildness, very suitable for photography and relaxation. Stop 3: Trail walk & viewing platform There are several wooden canyons along the lake, along with observation decks overlooking the panoramic view of the Blue Moon Valley. For a more open view, it is recommended to go to the upper platform for a further view, where the blue sky and white clouds blend with the lake water. The walk is about 20-30 minutes, which is easy and effortless, so you don't have to worry about your stamina. 📍Blue Moon Valley Address: 15 kilometers from Yulong Naxi Autonomous County, Lijiang City, Yulong Snow Mountain National Scenic Spot ⏰Opening Hours: Year-round 07:00-17:00 (last entry 16:30) Practical tips: 1. The weather in the mountainous areas is changeable. Remember to bring a windproof jacket. Don't think that June is not cold. 2. Less people in the morning, especially 8-10 to take the most beautiful photos, not so many tourists into the mirror. 3. If you take a camera or mobile phone to take pictures of the lake, it is recommended to turn on the exposure by one level higher, the color of the lake is more prominent. 4. Yaks can check in, but do not feed or touch, respect the animals and avoid harassing them. 🚙Transportation Tips: From Lijiang there are tour buses or chartered cars to Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area, which takes about 40 minutes. At the Snow Mountain exit and entrance, change to the scenic bus to reach the Blue Moon Valley directly. It is recommended to buy tickets in advance to avoid queuing. 🍴Food Recommendations: There are some small restaurants outside the Snow Mountain Scenic Area. It is recommended to bring some dry food snacks into the scenic area. The food options in the scenic area are limited. If you want to see the natural wonders + animals + take pictures at once, Blue Moon Valley is a must-see in Lijiang that you can't miss! After walking around, it's beautiful and chill, I think the blue here, you really have to see it in person to believe it! #Yulong Snow Mountain Photo #Blue Moon Valley Must-See #Lijiang Travel Guide #Yak Wildlife #Lake View Photo Sharing
