Meltwater from Yulong (Jade Dragon) Snow Mountain flows down its eastern slopes, winding through the valley, where the surrounding mountains shape it into four interconnected bodies of water. The waters are remarkably clear, with snow-capped peaks rising beyond them. Their colors shift with the changing light and weather, creating ever-changing shades across the valley.

Streams, lakes, and snow-covered mountains come together to form a distinctive highland waterscape of Lanyue (Blue Moon) Valley. Follow the trail through the valley, and the layers of blue-green waters unfold beneath the peaks, revealing a different side of Yulong Snow Mountain.
