Heilongtan Sunrise Golden Mountain Viewing Guide

Heilongtan is the closest spot to Lijiang Old Town for watching the sunrise on the Golden Mountain. The sunrise time is around 7:50 AM and lasts for about half an hour. Navigate directly to the Heilongtan parking lot, then turn right a few hundred meters after entering to reach the best photo spot. This location is great for landscape shots. If you want to capture both people and scenery in the frame, you’ll need additional lighting for the subjects. You can bring a portable fill light and a flash. It’s still a bit cold in the morning, so be sure to dress warmly.
