Step into a real-life utopia and discover Yuhu Village.

In Lijiang, Yunnan, there's a place favored by time—Yuhu Village. Like a hidden gem tucked away from the hustle and bustle, it exudes a rustic and charming atmosphere. Once the summer palace of the Mu Family, the village is dotted with rugged, primitive glacial stone houses. These houses seem to have grown from the depths of time, carrying the majesty and simplicity of nature. They stand quietly, captivating hearts at first glance. Yuhu Village is extraordinary, serving as one of the prototypes for "Lost Horizon." The book's depiction of a mysterious and beautiful utopia finds its real-world reflection here. American explorer Joseph Rock was so captivated by its charm that he lived here for 27 years, a testament to Yuhu Village's unique allure. As the birthplace of Lijiang's thousand-year-old Naxi culture, Yuhu Village still retains its authentic ethnic customs. Thousands of indigenous people have lived here for generations, wearing traditional Naxi clothing adorned with embroidered stars and moons, as if narrating ancient legends. As you stroll through the village, they greet you with sincere smiles, creating a palpable sense of camaraderie that warms the heart. Surrounding the village are towering snow-capped mountains and vast grasslands. The glistening snow reflects the sunlight, while cattle and sheep graze leisurely on the pastures. Here, humans and nature coexist harmoniously, and ancient charm blends seamlessly with the natural world. If you're tired of the city's hustle and bustle, come to Yuhu Village. Walk along the stone paths, touch the ancient stone houses, listen to the stories of the indigenous people, and immerse yourself in the rare tranquility and beauty, seeking the poetry and distance within your heart.
