    "Although the snow on the top of the Yulong Snow Mountain in September has been eliminated, the scenery is still worth seeing. The overall ropeway and the eco-friendly car are very good in all aspects. Be careful not to miss the appointment time. There is also the staff of Blue Moon Lake, I *you *, this scenic spot has you really lowered the score."

    "The park is very small and not very fun. There are only a few roads inside. The design is very ordinary. It is suitable for boating. The scenery of Lashihai is OK. The park does not use the environment well. It is better to experience the nearby tea horse ancient road."

    No.1 of Water Fun Attractions in Yulong
    Highlights: Lashi Sea is located 10 kilometers west of Lijiang City. It is a marvelous grassland with beautiful scenery. The water is very clear, and it is a wonderful place to visit in the spring and summer around Lijiang. This is also a habitat for many migratory birds in the winter. Every year, tens of thousands of migratory birds arrive here to spend the winter. There are many racecourses for horses in the village next to the river. Many tourists choose to ride horses here and have a relaxing time. Lashi Sea has therefore become a wonderful place in Lijiang for riding horses, boating, and bird watching.

    "If you are looking to enjoy an old town environment but escape the crowds this place is a great choice."
    Yulong.Baisha old town/FOLIDAY Town Lijiang Mediterranean Resort
    14.9km from downtown
    Highlights: Baisha Ancient Town is an ancient town about 12 kilometers north of Lijiang City. It was the original settlement of the Naxi people in Lijiangba and the birthplace of Lijiang Mu's Toast. At present, it still retains the antique style, and it is very quiet and simple. The "white sand murals" in the town of Ming and Qing Dynasties are even more precious. Some people say that Baisha is Lijiang ten years ago. There is only an old commercial street here, and there are many local Naxi courtyards, which retain the original appearance of the ancient town, and you can see the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain when you look up. The small shops selling souvenirs mainly sell two kinds of things, one is tie-dye, the other is all kinds of imitation antiques, and there are some cafes and snack bars. Compared with the bustling business of Dayan and Shuhe, Baisha Ancient Town is a relatively quiet place. The strange thing is that although the streets here are relatively old, there are almost foreign English signs on the doors and windows of the streets, and some shops can also do business with foreign tourists in English. This is because most of the people who came to Baisha in the past were foreigners, who preferred the primitive Naxi folk customs here, and the locals also learned foreign languages. There is a very famous attraction in the ancient town "Baisha Murals". The painting of "Baisha Murals" lasted for more than 300 years from the early Ming Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty. When you come to Baisha Ancient Town, you might as well come here to learn about Dongba culture. In addition to this scenic spot, most of the people who come to Baisha Ancient Town are for the sake of the cleanliness here. Chatting in languages you know or don't understand makes people feel relaxed and leisurely.

    "The large grass under the mountain is full of small stones, which is a bit difficult to walk; the village and other ancient towns are almost the same, and they are all buying and eating; if you like horse riding, you can try it, and the surrounding scenery can still be enjoyed."
    Yulong.Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area
    21.5km from downtown
    Highlights: Xuesong Village, also known as Yuhu Village, is a quiet ancient village located at the foot of the snow-capped mountains. The surrounding scenery is very beautiful. The houses in the village are all made of stones, exuding an ancient and simple atmosphere. It is suitable for taking pictures, and it is also suitable for tourists who like quietness to stay here and enjoy the tranquility and beauty at the foot of the snow-capped mountains. Xuesong Village is not as famous as Dayan Ancient Town and Shuhe Ancient Town, but it is actually one of the birthplaces of Naximu clan chieftain, and it is also well-known internationally. American-Austrian explorer Joseph Locke came to Lijiang in 1922 and lived here for 27 years, leaving a lot of graphic materials about it. His former residence is also in the village, and you can buy tickets to visit it. There is a Shujia Yulu Xuesongyuan Hotel in Xuesong Village, which was carefully designed by the famous architect Nie Jianping. The appearance of the stone building is integrated with the style of Xuesong Village, and the landscape is very beautiful. Tourists who want to experience more of the style of Xuesong Village can stay here. The hotel is very high-end, and the price was also high back then. In addition to this one, there are also some inns in the village, and each place is fairly complete, and you can choose according to your needs.

    "As soon as the scenic spot enters, there are local ethnic minorities jumping and singing. We can also participate in it and interact with them together. The experience is very good. Then go inside is the Naxi blessing platform and the glass suspension bridge. You can also watch the snow-capped mountains up close. Taking pictures and everything are quite nice. The natural scenery is very beautiful after going down the canyon, and you can breathe fresh air. The staff inside is very good, the service is in place, very satisfied, it is worth a visit 😁😁"

    "Quiet lake, wide meadow, cattle and horses leisurely eat grass 🌿, grass and green fields watch the smoke rise in the small village, cattle are playing by the water, horses are running freely and happily on the green grass... This is Lijiang's niche attractions ‖ Wenhai tourists do not exceed ten people... Of course if It would be perfect without the horse chasing it."

    Highlights: Wenhai is located in the north of Lijiang. It is a pure place that has not been extensively developed. A lake sits quietly on a broad meadow. The lake water changes colors with the blue sky. Cows and horses graze leisurely, and there are also wild ducks from time to time. Come and feel relaxed. To play Wenhai, you can charter a car from the ancient city of Lijiang. There is not much development around Wenhai. Only some herdsmen provide horseback riding services, and you can walk along the lake on horseback. The best season to visit Wenhai is around July, when the wildflowers on the meadows by the lake are in full bloom, colorful and very beautiful.

    "It takes about 2 hours and 20 minutes to drive from Lijiang to Laojun Mountain. We walked on National Highway 353. I didn’t expect the scenery along the way to be particularly beautiful. Walk along the first bay of Jinsha River to Laojun Mountain Scenic Area. The ticket gate service attitude at the entrance is very good. 👍 It takes 2 and a half hours to take a battery car + cableway to and from the play. Buying a package is more favorable, the mountains above are shocking, the unique Danxia landform landscape is not seen in other places, it is worth a trip"
