　　The Dayueshan Yi, Lahu, and Dai Township is located to the west of Lincang City and in the southeastern part of Yongde County, about 157 kilometers from the county seat and 110 kilometers from Lincang City (the prefectural capital). The highest elevation in the area reaches 3,504.2 meters, while the lowest is 630 meters. The total land area spans 379 square kilometers. The area receives an average annual rainfall of 1,014.1 mm, with an average relative humidity of 76%, and features a South Asian tropical valley monsoon climate.

　　The Dayueshan Township boasts abundant natural resources. First, there are tropical agricultural resources. The region remains lush with vegetation and fragrant with fruits all year round. It has established agricultural commodity bases for sugarcane, macadamia nuts, Taiwanese green jujubes, white-flower papayas, pecan nuts, tung trees, grapes, and livestock. Second, there are mineral resources. The township contains various metallic and non-metallic minerals such as silica, manganese, lead-zinc, iron, and copper ores. Third, there are tourism resources. The township borders the Dayueshan National Nature Reserve, with snow-capped peaks covered in white all year long. The towering Wanzhangyan Waterfall cascades dramatically down deep cliffs, and the winding Nanting River flows through the area, complementing the majestic snow mountains to create a stunningly colorful “Rainbow Snow Mountain” landscape. Fourth, there are water resources. Multiple rivers, including the Nanting River, Baishitou River, and Nanjing River, run through the region, offering vast potential for hydropower development. Currently, preliminary planning and feasibility studies for the Baishitou River Hydropower Station have been fully completed.
