The 99 Dragon Pools scenic area in Laojun Mountain National Park, Lijiang, Yunnan province, has entered its most striking season of the year, when drifting clouds and mist sweep through the high-altitude basins like a thin white scarf.

The 99 Dragon Pools are regarded as the heart of Laojun Mountain. They appear as vivid blue-green jewels set within ancient forests until autumn, when the surrounding colors reflect across their clear waters.
