Liming scenic spot of Laojun Mountain is in Yulong County of Lijiang City, Yunnan Province. Recently, the scenic spot seemed like a spectacular fairyland after rain, shrouded in the mist with peaks looming in the clouds.

Laojun Mountain in Lijiang City is one of eight areas of the world’s natural heritage, “Three Parallel Rivers,” and a significant component of western Yunnan’s tourist route. It has distinctive biodiversity and ethnic and cultural diversity with the interlaced distribution of primeval forests, glacial relics, Danxia peaks, rivers and lakes, valleys and canyons, and alpine meadows. (Editors: Ines, Lexi)
