November 22, 2025!!! The morning mist at Lugu Lake is insanely beautiful!!!!!!

Who understands the stunning power of the blue hour before sunrise at Lugu Lake!!! Morning mist, seagulls, the moon, small boats... Every photo looks like an oil painting 🖼️ · Transportation Guide 🚌: • Take a bus from the South/North Gate of Lijiang Old Town to Lugu Lake, about 4-5 hours • Self-driving from Lijiang takes about 3 hours · Boat Departure Point 📍: Love Pier Sailing through the reed marshes, the scenery is so stunning it leaves you speechless! 📌 Key point: Be sure to arrive early! Each batch has only 30 boats, arriving late means waiting for the next batch and you might miss the best viewing time · Time Reference ⏰: • Recommended to arrive at the pier before 7:30 AM • Board the boat and depart at 7:50 AM • Around 8:30 AM the morning mist thickens, the best time for photos · Boat Rental Tips 🧑🏻‍🌾: Price is about 200 RMB, Love Pier is slightly more expensive! For a better shooting experience, rent a boat; it's more comfortable for two people to take photos of each other. You can also share a boat with up to 6 people for a better experience · Car Rental for Lake Tour 🚗: Car rental is uniformly 200 RMB, a full circle around the lake takes about 4 hours. The driver will stop at various points to allow enough time for sightseeing and will control the pace as needed. Just pay attention to the return trip schedule · Accommodation Suggestions 🏨: Preferably choose a guesthouse near the boat pier for convenient travel; arrive one night in advance and you can contact the host for pick-up and drop-off, making it worry-free and easy 😀
