The weather in Glacier Town

To travel to Lijiang, Yulong Snow Mountain is a must. It is the first mountain in Yunnan and one of the snow-capped mountains closest to the ancient town in China. Even if you go to play in summer, you must put on a down jacket. Many tourists will also prepare oxygen cylinders to make high-end products.

Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area includes Blue Moon Valley, Yunshan Ping, Ganhaizi and Glacier Park. Glacier Park is the most popular, and most tourists will go here. Sheng, wearing a down jacket, walked on the plank road with snow on both sides, watching the snow cover the mountain peaks, as if he had crossed into a dreamy fairy tale world.

Because of the climate, summer is not the season with the most snow in glacier park, but the contrast of seasons brings freshness to tourists. For southern tourists, the experience is better, because it is difficult to see snow in low altitude areas in the south.

Yulong Snow Mountain Glacier Park has vast snowfields in winter and spring. Although the glaciers have shrunk in summer, you can still enjoy the Baishui No.1 Glacier, which is about 2.7 kilometers long and was formed 40,000 years ago. When you come to the glacier park on a sunny day, there are only two colors in the world, white and blue. Because of the intense sunlight, glacier snow appears whiter under the refraction.

The weather in the snowy mountain is changeable, foggy and sunny, which is normal. In July and August, under normal circumstances, most of the time before 10, the snow-capped mountains are cloudless in Wan Li, which looks very sunny. Even at the foot of the mountain, you can see the effect of the golden dome of the sun. After 10 o'clock, the fog accumulated, and the snow-capped mountains were often wrapped in white gauze, sometimes appearing and disappearing, which seemed to be true.

Traveling to places above 4500 meters above sea level, many people are worried about the high altitude. In fact, everyone adapts differently. For safety reasons, tour groups usually prepare oxygen cylinders in advance. If they play alone and have no previous experience in plateau travel, it is recommended to prepare a bottle in advance.

Climbing from an altitude of 4506 meters, although the ascending slope of the plank road is not large, it is not suitable for running, jumping and talking loudly because of the thin air and rapid physical consumption above 4500 meters. Slow down, relax and enjoy the scenery is the best travel experience.

Yulong Snow Mountain is a modern glacier-distributed snow mountain with the lowest latitude in Eurasia. It's very special to take photos with ice and snow on the mountain.

Taking portrait photos in Glacier Park is suitable for wearing dark clothes, such as red, orange and purple. It is easy to form a sharp contrast with snow.
