Cangshan Mountain, also called Dian Cang Mountain or Holy Golden Eagle Mountain, is located to the northwest of the city proper of Dali. It is the major peak of the southern end of Yunlin Mountain. Cangshan Mountain is standing by Erhai Lake in the east, and watching Black Hui River in the west. There are 19 grand peaks on Cangshan Mountain, most of which have an altitude of more than 3,500 meters. The peaks stretch like a barrier from the south to the north. The major peak, Malong Peak, has an altitude of 4,122 meters. It is covered with snow all the year round; so there is a saying going like this: the snow will not melt even in mid-summer. The most wonderful thing is that there is a brook between every two peaks. The brooks run down from the peaks and then east into Erhai Lake. The 19 peaks and 18 brooks make a unique and colourful view of Cangshan Mountain.
Many sights with featured culture of Bai people are at the foot of Cangshan Mountain. They include the well-known Three Towers of Chongsheng Temple, Buddhist Picture Tower, Inaction Temple, Taoxi Zhonghe Temple, Nine Dragon Virgin Pool, three pools of Clear Green Temple and Enlightenment Temple. Among the famous four wonders of Dali, (the Wind, the Flower, the Snow and the Moon) the Snow refers to the snow sight on Cangshan Mountain.
