Lìjiāng is a prefecture-level city in the northwest of Yunnan province, People's Republic of China. Lijiang is famous for its UNESCO Heritage Site, the Old Town of Lijiang.

Jade Spring Park,commonly known as Black Dragon Pond Park, is one of the most beautiful parks in all of Lijiang. The park derives its name from the fact that the water in the pond is clear and pretty, like a piece of jade. Upon entering the park, visitors encounter the Suocui Bridge, under which there are three small waterfalls running swiftly. A tower here houses numerous pictures and drawings on its beams, pillars, doors and windows. Today, this tower is used as a museum in which many precious historical cultural relics as well as calligraphic and paintings are displayed.
