Nestled in Lijiang City, southwest China, the Blue Moon Valley is making waves as a must-visit spot for adventurers and nature lovers alike! Known for its crystal-clear turquoise pools, dramatic mountain backdrops, and lush forests, this valley feels like stepping into a fantasy novel—except it’s very real.
Dubbed a ‘hidden gem’ by travelers, the area offers everything from serene walks along misty trails to adrenaline-pumping hikes. Local guides say the valley’s name comes from the moon-like glow the water takes on at dusk—perfect for that Instagram-worthy shot!
What’s the draw? Think Avatar-level scenery without the CGI. Snow-capped peaks of the Jade Dragon Mountain frame the valley, while mineral-rich streams create surreal blue hues. Culture buffs can also explore nearby Naxi minority villages, adding a rich layer of heritage to the adventure.
With CGTN spotlighting the valley in their latest series, now’s the time to add this wonder to your travel bucket list. Pro tip: Visit during spring or autumn to avoid crowds and catch the landscape in full bloom!
