Li Jiang(丽江) -- Yulong mountain (玉龙雪山)

Yulong (jade dragon) mountain has snow all year around. More than ten peaks covered in snow connect together, like a jade dragon.

玉龙雪山终年积雪,十多座山峰白雪连绵,像一条雪白的长龙,故称作为玉龙雪山。丽江城内,到处可见溪水从脚下流过,其实都是玉龙山上流下的雪水。雪水非常的冰凉清澈,当地的酒吧有用篮子装着啤酒吊在溪水里作冰镇啤酒。

Cold Beer

Locals put beer in a basket, and put the basket in the creek. The water in the creek is from the melted snow from Yulong mountain.
