I happened to meet a local sociologist working on ancient village preservation, and together we took a taxi from Baisha to Yuhu Village at the foot of the snow-capped mountains to visit Locke's former residence.
Yuhu Village, where Locke lived, is a village of stone houses at the foot of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.
It is said that the stone there is a very famous stone in Lijiang.
Lock Courtyard and Living Room
Locke, a foreign botanist, traveled thousands of miles to the snowy mountains to collect plant seeds and write for National Geographic.
He lived there for 27 years, integrating himself with the local Naxi people. Through writing and photographs, he revealed to the world every aspect of the mysterious ancient Naxi Kingdom on the snowy plateau. He also used his camera to document the customs of the Naxi and other ethnic minorities in southwestern China, which was then isolated.
The chieftain’s wife is also a great beauty.
The gift Locke received for helping the Flying Tigers open the Hump Route.
Time has changed, things and people have changed, but the sacred snow-capped mountains remain eternal.
With Jade Dragon Snow Mountain at its back, every household enjoys a view of the eternal snowcapped peaks of the Western Ridge.
