A pleasant walk from Lijiang, the Black Dragon Pool is best visited in the late afternoon when the light on the pool, the bridge and the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is best.
More than ever, it was easy to escape the tourist hordes in Lijiang. While they at times make walking impossible in the narrow cobble-stone streets of the old historic centre, you see much less of them once you turn north along the Yu-He river. Instead, you come across old Naxi men and women, playing games, fishing, or just walking home. After some ten minutes, you hear water rushing down: you have come to the small waterfall, where water flows from the Black Dragon Pool further down into the Yu-He river. When you walk up the stairs, your breath is taken away: in the quiet waters of the Black Dragon Pool, you see the majestic Jade Dragon Snow mountain, the arches of the marble bridge, and the surrounding trees reflected, as well as a small pavillion in the middle of the pool.
