Fully a quarter of all plant species found in China have a home here on and around the mountain. The natural diversity is stunning in the shadow of the dragon. Naxi guides and other tour companies are available to lead treks through the more accessible parts of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.
While the mountain peaks are too slippery and the conditions are too harsh to reach the summit, it doesn’t mean you can’t get close. Today, people come from all around the globe to add Lijiang to their China vacation plans. After his victory, the jade dragon continued to yield 13 swords to show his power, which eventually lead to the 13 peaks that continue to reach towards the skies. The legend says that the jade dragon drove away an evil interloper after using 13 swords. From Lijiang Old Town, the peaks appear like a jade dragon lying down in the clouds. Each of the peaks-the highest of which is 5,600 meters (18,360 feet) tall-are shrouded in fog and covered in snow. For these people of China who live primarily on grain farming and leading treks, this is a place of legends. The Naxi People of China have lived in the shadow of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain for generations.
