Blue Moon Valley - Sapphire Falling from Snow Mountain
The Blue Moon Valley, located at the foot of the snow capped mountains, is a secret realm formed by the convergence of glacial meltwater. The lake water, rich in minerals, presents a dreamy Tiffany blue color on sunny days. The four lakes of "Yuye Lake", "Jingtan Lake", "Blue Moon Lake", and "Tingtao Lake" in the valley are connected, reflecting the towering snow peaks, making it an excellent place to capture the reflection of snow capped mountains.
