Yunnan｜This journey finally comes to a full stop. Crossing mountains, rising at dawn, breathless at high altitudes — all for a few seconds of the Milky Way and Meili Snow Mountain’s golden sunrise. The wild beauty of Tiger Leaping Gorge was just as unforgettable, and last night’s 520 photoshoot was the closing chapter — and the perfect one. The only regret? Not reaching the peak of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. But maybe a perfect journey shouldn’t be flawless. The exhaustion is real — and so is the joy. Next stop: Guiyang. A short pause before I continue onward. #日照金山 #梅里雪山 #虎跳峡

Shangri-La Tiger Leaping Gorge

Tiger Leaping Gorge. The name is at once enticing and thrilling. Located in Yunnan, about midway between Lijiang and Shangri-la, this is where to come to see snow-capped mountains, steep cliffs, raging waters and soaring eagles. Hike along an ancient switchbacked trail and breathe the mountain air. Stop to rest in minority villages clinging to the canyon walls amongst steeply terraced fields. There might not be any tigers today, but the place has a rugged fierceness of its own. #leaveyourmark #urbanexplorer #lightthecity #yunnan #tigerleapinggorge #虎跳峡 #mountains #hiking #canyon #photography #scenery #naturalwonders
