Dao Ren Mountain

　　Dao Ren Mountain is a majestic peak in the Biluo Snow Mountain range on the western bank of the Lancang River. As the highest summit within Longyang District, it stands at an elevation of 3650 meters. Towering alone over Waya Township on the western bank of the Lancang River, it resembles a silent yet grand giant. Its name is tied to a legend about a deified “Taoist hermit.”

　　The legend of the Taoist seems to envelop the entire mountain. To this day, remnants of tools used by the Taoist, stone huts personally built and inhabited by him, and his tomb can be seen, touched, and photographed by every visitor to Dao Ren Mountain. Serving as evidence of the legendary “ascension to immortality,” these relics infuse the ethereal tale with tangible “presence” and imbue this towering mountain with an aura of the divine. Thus, every climber feels like a “pilgrim.”
