Six kilometers southwest of Yala Qingbo Ranch is the legendary Lingxi Lake in the scenic area. This is a lake full of spirituality, deeply hidden in the primeval forest halfway up the mountain in Blue Moon Valley Scenic Area. According to legend, whenever there is a full moon, rhinos will appear. It is the seat of the goddess Shika, and it protects people's cattle and sheep here to thrive. To the west of the lake is a hill, just like a sitting Buddha, which the locals call the incarnation of Jumba Buddha. The lake is surrounded by lush trees, azaleas and green jade, and the ecological vegetation is extremely well protected, showing a quiet and mysterious scene.

Take the cableway to the top of Shika Snow Mountain, which is 4449.5 meters above sea level. Looking around, a pyramid-shaped snow mountain appeared in the northwest. According to the reporter, she is the main peak of Meili Snow Mountain, which is famous at home and abroad. On her left, she also saw a beautiful mountain-Mintzm Mountain. Yulong and Baja, two equally famous snow-capped mountains, also appear in the southeast. At the same time, in the northeast of the top of Shika Snow Mountain, you can also see three famous sacred mountains in Aden, Sichuan: Xianrenzheng, Jiangbianyang and Shanuoduojie. It's unbelievable. Climbing to the top of Shika Snow Mountain and seeing all the famous mountains is a great enjoyment. Behind the main peak of Shika Snow Mountain is a canyon called Blue Moon Valley. This is a canyon famous for its danger. The locals call it Death Canyon. In September 2003, an American couple, Haier Danju, who was nearly seventy years old, mysteriously disappeared in Shang Huashi. After a three-day carpet search organized by the local government, they were rescued.

The climate of snow-capped mountains is changeable. On a sunny day, clouds suddenly appeared, and a quiet mountain village at the foot of the mountain appeared and disappeared. "This village is called Bulun in Tibetan. It has a long history and is the most important transit point of the ancient tea-horse road in Tang Dynasty. At that time, in June and July every year, the caravan carried tea from Pu 'er area, passed through Dali and Lijiang, arrived here to rest horses, and then set off for Tibet, or turned to Myanmar, Nepal, Bhutan and India. "The big meadow outside the village is connected with the Napahai Scenic Area, a national first-class protected bird black-necked crane habitat. Every winter, rare birds such as black-necked cranes, striped geese and yellow ducks will spend the winter in the meadow. " The ancient Tibetan dwellings are located at the foot of the mountain, with smoke billowing, green grass and cattle and sheep roaming, showing a beautiful picture of Shangri-La people living in harmony with nature.
