🌸 Boxin Yun She｜In Lijiang Ancient Town, fall asleep to the fragrance of tea and books in a "Big Fish & Begonia" dream 📖 Afternoon at Boxin Book House: Time healed by the scent of books and bougainvillea At three in the afternoon, sunlight gently filters through the wooden window frames of Boxin Yun She in Lijiang Ancient Town, softly illuminating the pages of a book. The second-floor Boxin Book House is so quiet that only the sounds of turning pages and boiling water remain. Outside the window, clusters of bougainvillea bloom fiercely like fire🌺. Sitting face to face with an old friend not seen for years, brewing a pot of aged Pu'er tea, the aroma curls up as our voices soften. We talk about youth and distant places, as if time has never moved away. The book house is small but holds all the endless confessions—here, Lijiang’s gentle moments are gently stretched by a cup of tea and a book⏳. ✨ Travel Tips 📍 Address: Inside Lijiang Ancient Town, it’s recommended to navigate to "Boxin Yun She," then pass through the alley on Qiyi Street to arrive 🕒 Best visiting time: 2 PM to 5 PM, when the sunlight slants and the book house’s light and shadow are stunning 💡 Suggestion: Bring a favorite book, order a pot of Yunnan Pu'er tea (about 68 RMB/pot), and quietly enjoy a private reading moment --- 🌙 After nightfall: The ancient town lights up, as if stepping into the dream of "Big Fish & Begonia" When night falls, Boxin Yun She gradually glows with warm yellow lights. Climb to the third-floor terrace, and the entire ancient town unfolds beneath your eyes—the dark green eaves, winding stone paths, and strings of red lanterns lighting up one by one, like the streets of Spirited Away appearing in the human world🎑. In the distance, the gentle undulations of Lion Mountain’s silhouette, and Jade Dragon Snow Mountain faintly shimmering silver under the deep blue sky. Suddenly recalling the line from "Big Fish & Begonia": “All living humans are a giant fish in the sea.” At this moment, the ancient town feels like the deep sea, and we are the roaming fish, seeking a place to dream among the rippling lights🐋. 🌃 Night Tour Guide 🌟 The Boxin Yun She terrace offers excellent views, free for guests, recommended to visit after 8 PM to avoid crowds 📸 Photo spots: Lantern corridor, bougainvillea corner, terrace panoramic view of the ancient town 🍶 Nearby late-night snacks: “Naxi Barbecue” at the South Gate of the ancient town or the fruit wine bar on Wuyi Street --- 🚶 Ancient Town Stroll Guide: Besides Boxin Yun She, these places are also worth a stop The beauty of Lijiang is hidden in corners and between dawn and dusk.
