There are actually many places to visit in Lijiang, but most tourists are attracted to those popular attractions. Today I’m going to introduce a place that is still worth visiting, because there aren’t many tourists here, so it’s not very commercialized and has more scenic value. Dragon Spring is waiting for you!
There are two main attractions worth seeing in Dragon Spring, and I will introduce them one by one.
1. Nine Tripod Dragon Pool
Unbelievably, the spring water here is as beautiful as Jiuzhaigou. The water is as calm as a mirror, reflecting all the buildings and trees on the shore. Coupled with the crystal clear, azure blue spring water, it is visually stunning.
If the green lung of Dayan Ancient Town is Heilongtan, then this Dragon Spring is the green lung of Shuhe. When you come to Shuhe, you can come here at any time to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
2. Dragon Spring Temple
This is a Han Chinese Buddhist temple that mainly practices Pure Land Buddhism and also Zen Buddhism.
The temple is not big, but it is very spiritual. Entering the temple with a humble heart and admiring it will make you feel calm.
