Seeing that Lijang is 1500 m above the sea level the climate is anything but tropical. So I'm not sure you'll have much use for that pool, azepine00. Now it may depend on your dates but when I went there in mid-June the weather was rather chilly and it was raining all the time (not surprisingly as it's the rainy season).

PM me if you need some local advice on the area.
