Experience China's Majestic Snow-Capped Mountains

When it comes to traveling in China, one cannot overlook the timeless and majestic snow-capped mountains of this country. In today's article, let's explore these famous snow-capped mountains of China's travel scene with Mytour.

Jade Dragon Snow Mountain

Ngọc Long Snow Mountain is located in Lijiang City, Yunnan Province, China. It stands as one of the tallest mountains in the world, with a height of over 5,000 meters. Its highest peak, Phiến Tử Đẩu, rises to 5,596 meters, perpetually covered in snow. Ngọc Long Mountain holds profound significance for the Naxi people, symbolizing life and the strength of its inhabitants.

To reach the summit, travelers can opt for the cable car experience. From here, you can fully admire the surrounding snow-capped mountain, enveloped in lush green vegetation with rare species such as pine trees, cypress trees, rhododendrons,... especially the vibrant azalea flowers embellishing the white snow backdrop creating a picturesque landscape.

Mai Li Snow Mountain

Dubbed as the 'Prince of Snow Mountains', Mai Li Snow Mountain stands magnificently and mysteriously in Yunnan Province. Located 10 km northeast of Deqin, between the Nujiang River and the Mekong River, with 13 peaks averaging 6000m above sea level, arranged in a line from north to south, known as the 13 Princes.

Its main peak, Kawagebo, rises to 6,740 meters (22,110 feet) above sea level, making it the highest peak in Yunnan Province. To this day, it remains a pristine peak and one of the rare snow-capped peaks that humans have yet to set foot on its highest point.

The high plateau lakes, dense forests, unique vegetation, and wildlife are all considered the natural treasures of this mysterious snow-capped mountain. Especially, the golden sunrise on the snow-covered peaks will be an impressive sight not to be missed at Mai Li Snow Mountain.

Snow Mountains in Nyingchi, Tibet

Located in the Yalu Tsangpo River area, northeastern Tibet, Nyingchi could be regarded as the world's deepest valley with an average elevation of 3,100m above sea level. With its pristine forests, sea of flowers, and mountains stretching across landscapes, Nyingchi is an attractive destination to explore. But the most famous natural beauty of Nyingchi is the blooming peach blossoms in spring. While distant mountains are still covered in snow, Nyingchi is already adorned with peach blossoms.

Stone Sand Snow Mountain

The snow-capped mountain, standing at 4,500m high, lies about 7km from the center of Shangri-La. Stone Sand Snow Mountain is known as a magical winter painting, heralding the arrival of spring, sweet and exotic. To reach the mountain peak at 4,500m, travelers will take two consecutive cable car sections. As you ascend, Stone Sand Snow Mountain becomes more distinct. Steep cliffs, thick layers of ice covering all rocky surfaces create a piercing cold sensation.

After piercing through layers of clouds, overcoming steep and treacherous sections, travelers reach the mountain peak. Intertwined with the snowy realms are lush green meadows resembling vast green plains of the foothills. The tranquil and picturesque scenery adds to the irresistible charm of Shangri-La.

These are all mountains that attract a large number of Chinese tourists. It is believed that these will be exciting experiences in the Chinese tourist journey.
