The Mountain Laojun stands 70 km upward the First Bend of Yangtze River. It is known as the "Grandfather of all mountains in Yunnan Province", according to the myth, after the magic mirror of Supreme Laojun (Laozi, the Supreme Patriarch of Taoism, regarded as a god) fell sown out of his carelessness, and the 99 broken pieces tuned into the 99 clean Dragon Ponds on top of the mountain, hence the name.

Laojun, with a number of interesting place like Mt Jinsichang, South Heaven Gate, Azalea Bush, Yellow Dragon Pool, Meile Peach Garden, Mountain of Five Immortals, Buddha Rock in Morning Sunshine, Mountain of Bird King, Ninety-nine Dragon Ponds, Black Dragon Pool, Sishiluo, and Anqilin.
