Tricked into coming to Yunnan by a single photo! It's truly breathtaking!!! 📍 2 days 1 night itinerary (focused on deep experience) - Day 1: Arrive at Tongle Village → Explore the century-old wooden beam houses village → Climb the viewing platform at dusk to watch the sea of clouds - Day 2: Early morning digging for caterpillar fungus with villagers (optional) → Visit the Lisu Ethnic Museum → Prepare to return 🌟 Must-see spots (each place is a trace of time) - Tongle Village wooden beam houses cluster: The whole village has over 100 wooden houses built with mortise and tenon joints, roofs covered with pine needles. On rainy days, smoke curls from the chimneys, creating a heartwarming scene; any photo looks like a still from a movie 🎬. - Village viewing platform: Best to go at 4 PM! From here, you can overlook the entire village nestled in the valley. If you're lucky, you might catch a rainbow stretching across the mountains—super stunning 🌈. - Lisu Ethnic Museum: Free admission! Inside you can see old-style looms, traditional hunting tools, and sometimes local grandmothers demonstrate hemp weaving skills live, full of local life vibes. 🚗 Transportation guide (a bit remote but worth it) Visitors from other places first go to Shangri-La city center, then carpool to Tongle Village (about 50 RMB per person, 1.5-hour drive); Only walking is allowed in the village! The stone paths are somewhat steep, so be sure to wear comfortable sneakers to avoid twisting your ankle; If you want to explore the surroundings more deeply, you can rent a horse from villagers (50 RMB/hour). Riding through the mountains and fields is an amazing experience. 🍲 Local food (authentic flavors) - Lisu hand-grabbed rice: Cured meat, boiled corn, and buckwheat cakes fully spread on a bamboo sieve, paired with homemade rice wine, the aroma is irresistible; - Roast suckling pig: A signature dish usually served only at village banquets, with crispy skin and tender meat, you can eat your fill for about 30 RMB per person; - Lacquer oil chicken: A local specialty! Chicken stewed with lacquer tree seed oil, which has warming and nourishing effects, but the taste is slightly bitter, so try it cautiously; - Buckwheat pancakes: Dip them in honey, sweet and sticky without being greasy, 10 RMB can buy 3, perfect as a snack. ⚠️ Pitfall warnings (avoid traps!) Don’t buy “wild caterpillar fungus” at the village entrance! Many are fake. To find real caterpillar fungus, you need to go digging in the mountains with villagers; Choose to stay at villagers’ homes (80-120 RMB/night), avoid newly built guesthouses—they are not only expensive but also lack local character; Respect local customs! Take off your shoes before entering wooden beam houses, don’t take photos of elders and children casually, always ask for permission before photographing; The best time to visit is May to June (caterpillar fungus season, and the mountain flowers are in full bloom); after November, it snows and mountain roads become difficult, so visiting is not recommended. This village hidden deep in the mountains hasn’t been overly commercialized yet and is slowly being changed by modernization. While it still retains its original look, hurry and go see it! There are no crowded crowds here, only simple Lisu people and stunning scenery. Once you come, you won’t want to leave~
