Black Dragon Pool

Black Dragon Pool lies in Jade Spring Park, north of Lijiang’s old town. Its famous view frames water, bridge, pavilion and Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in a single calm composition.

The dragon name gives the pool a mythic tone, as if water itself carried an old guardian. The site gathers architecture, reflection and mountain memory.

For this archive, Black Dragon Pool represents a quieter kind of legend: not a single plot, but a place where landscape and cultural memory meet.
