A panoramic view of the town of Lijiang, Yunnan Province, China. This view is from the eastern slope of Lion Hill, looking down on the Mu Clan Mansion, the residence of a local chief during the Ming Dynasty.
Northeast of the ancient town of Lijiang in Yunnan Province, China, within an area called the Jade Spring Park, lies the Black Dragon Pool. On the horizon lies Yulong Snowy Mountain, whose highest peak Shanzidou reaches 5,596 meters. This scene is widely considered as one of China's finest views. In the center of the lake is the tiny Yiwen Pavillion, and farther back to its right is the Deyue Pavilion [Moon-Embracing Pavilion].
