The Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is easily accessible via a system of cable cars that take visitors to different parts of the mountain. The 13 peaks, home to several glaciers, are covered in snow year-round. Different altitudes give rise to changing landscapes, with peaceful meadows giving way to snow-covered paths and glaciers. The choice to visit Spruce Meadow with the cable car is due to its lower altitude (3,300 meters) and fewer visitors than the route to Glacier Park, as well as the beautiful view.

If it rains, the white mud and limestone rubble at the riverbed will be swirled up, making the water as white as milk. Therefore, local Naxi people call it White Water River (Baishui River).
