Live Your Best Lives
Day 1: Qingdao Jiaodong Airport - Chengdu Tianfu Airport - Lijiang Sanyi Airport
Airfare: 1550/person
Accommodation: Stay at the IU Hotel at the South Gate of Lijiang Ancient Town, a few hundred meters walk from the ancient town. Recommended!
Twin room: 287/night
Day 2: Wenhai Village + Shuhe Ancient Town
During the rainy season, it's important to cherish every sunny day. Seeing that the next day was sunny, we made a last-minute decision to visit Wenhai Village. Wenhai Village is a wild landscape that has not been much commercially developed. It feels like my soul has been cleansed! I couldn't help but share the video with my good friends!
Transportation: Carpool, 80/person. South Gate of the Ancient City - Wenhai Village
Shuhe Ancient Town.
Between Shuhe and Baisha, we chose Shuhe. Baisha is smaller and more artistic, and my parents might not be interested in cafes. I also loved Shuhe Ancient Town! The architecture is so charming.
We had a delicious meal in Shuhe Ancient Town. My parents and I were very satisfied and loved the restaurant!
The ambiance is arguably the best of any restaurant I've dined at recently. It's a courtyard-style garden restaurant, a rare quiet and cozy little courtyard in bustling Lijiang!
Environment:
As soon as you enter, you're greeted by a dry landscape design, dotted with roses and hydrangeas. The courtyard's decor is truly thoughtful! The dining area is also very clean. You can tell the owner has high standards for the environment!
Service:
The service was also very enthusiastic. They proactively took us to the dining area to choose a seat, served us hot towels, explained their signature dishes, and were always responsive to any requests! They really value their guests! Great!
Pu'er Tea Braised Pork I thought this dish would be similar to the braised pork we usually eat, but it really surprised me! The combination of Pu'er tea and braised pork makes the taste have another kind of flavor! It goes well with rice. I thought the water spinach was water spinach, but it turned out not to be. It is a local wild vegetable. The taste is acceptable, without any weird smell! It is delicious.
Dry Pot Cauliflower It is fried very deliciously, and the taste is the same as the home-cooked method, with the blessing of the wok aroma. It did not disappoint me, haha!
In short, it is a pleasant surprise during my trip to Lijiang. I would like to recommend this little gem of a shop to everyone. The taste is very Yunnan. If you want to try Yunnan cuisine, you can’t go wrong with this shop!
Day 3: Yunshanping + Blue Moon Valley (no oxygen cylinders required for climbing the snow mountain)
Purchase Yunshanping bus and cable car tickets in advance from [Lijiang Tourism Group] for 60 yuan per person, and Blue Moon Valley is free.
Transportation: Zhongyi Market Route 101 ($15/person). Tickets booked for Yunshanping are timed, and delays cannot exceed 30 minutes, so be sure to plan your time to catch the bus. A 100/person mountain entrance fee will be charged before entering the mountain.
It would be even better if you could sit in the front row of the bus. The snow-capped mountains will gradually appear in your view, and the view will suddenly become clear!
Route:
a. First Yunshanping: Bus from the Visitor Center - Yunshanping Cableway
Take the cable car to Yunshanping, then walk along the plank road all the way up to the destination.
b. To Blue Moon Valley: After visiting Yunshanping, take the cable car to the cable car starting point, then the bus to Blue Moon Valley.
We all loved Yunshanping. Dad and I walked a full circle around Yunshanping. Comrade Lao Zhang showed off his photography skills!
Mufu Mansion + Lijiang Eternal Love
It rained on the fourth day, so I'm glad I planned all my outdoor activities on the first two days! I recommend the Mufu Mansion (40 yuan/person); you can see the architecture and experience the culture, and the explanations are excellent. In the afternoon, I bought VIP seats at Lijiang Eternal Love for 210 yuan/person. I feel that Lijiang's Eternal Love is not as impressive as Songcheng's, and the ticket price is not cheap. It is suitable for taking parents to go. My mother thinks it is very beautiful and she is very supportive. hh
