Meili Snow Mountain, located in Deqin County, Shangri-La, is Yunnan's most sacred and stunning snow-capped range, standing on the Yunnan-Tibet border. Its main peak, Kawagebo, soars to 6,740 meters, Yunnan's highest, and remains an unconquered virgin peak. Feilai Temple is the premier spot for viewing the "Sunshine over the Golden Mountain" and the panoramic view of the thirteen Meili peaks. It also serves as a vital transit hub for those trekking into Yubeng.
Known as the "Thirteen Prince Peaks", it features 13 snow-capped summits over 6,000 meters. A sacred site for Tibetan Buddhists, it's revered as the "God of Snow Mountains". The iconic Mingyong Glacier, a rare low-latitude modern glacier, stretches from the peak to lush forests.At dawn, the "Golden Sunrise" bathes the snow peaks in radiant gold—a breathtaking spectacle. Remote, majestic, and spiritually charged, Meili is a paradise for nature lovers and pilgrims alike.
