Geladandong (also spelled Geladaindong or Geladaintong) is a snow-covered mountain (or massif) located in southwestern Qinghai, China, near that province's border with Tibet Autonomous Region. It is noted as the tallest mountain in the Tanggula Mountain Range of the Tibetan Plateau (with an elevation of 6621 meters above sea level), as well as for being the source of the Yangtze River, which begins with glaciers on its surface.
