Lijiang Jade Dragon Snow Mountain Attractions

In order to fully immerse yourself in the diverse mountain vistas, I highly recommend exploring all the attractions nestled in the mountainous regions. Attractions - Recommended duration within the premise 1. Jade Dragon Snow Mountain 玉龙雪山 - 1-2 hrs climb *Highly Recommended* 2. Yaks Pasture 牦牛坪 - 2-3 hrs walk *Highly Recommended* 3. Yun Shan Ping 云杉坪 - 1-2 hrs walk 4. Blue Moon Valley 蓝月谷 - 1-2 hrs walk *Highly Recommended* 5. Impressions Lijiang 印象丽江 - 1 hr show Recommended Itinerary: Day 1: Attraction 1 > 4 > 5 Day 2: Attraction 2 > 4 > 3 Important Reminders: Allocate time for waiting in line for the bus/cable car and for the actual ride itself. The bus ride from the Tourist Center to the various cable car lines varies. The longest bus ride, to Yaks Pasture, takes about 40-50 minutes, while the others should be within 10-20 minutes.We spent approximately an hour waiting in line for both bus and cable car just to ascend Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. However, queues for other attractions were still manageable. Do note that this was during low peak period. 💰Money Matters 💰 Below are the details from my trip on 2024 March FYR 1.
