Baisha Ancient Town

Baisha Ancient Town

I didn't expect it to be so lively. After a walk around, I found that most of the shops were coffee shops, many of which had second floors. This was probably because it was close to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and the upstairs floors would be more photogenic. There were also many barbecue skewers, the kind were quite large, and many free flower teas for tasting. I also saw many young ladies wearing ethnic costumes taking photos.

Shuhe Ancient Town

Shuhe Ancient Town

I specially found another ancient town to visit on a different day. It has small bridges and flowing water. The commercial atmosphere is not so strong, but there is still a breath of life. You can see women carrying vegetables on their backs, and the small shops are also very unique. You can stroll around, eat and drink, and spend the whole day there.

Jade Dragon Snow Mountain

Jade Dragon Snow Mountain

It is a must-see attraction when you come to Lijiang~

Remember to bring 1-2 brands of 1000ml oxygen, which is basically enough. You don’t need to bring too much. You will hardly need it in the afternoon. I am a Cantonese person who basically doesn’t exercise, so one bottle is basically enough~

The sunrise shining on the Golden Mountain and the sunset are really super beautiful~ It is worth coming here to play and check in~

Blue Moon Valley

Blue Moon Valley

Personally, I think there's really nothing much to do in Lijiang Old Town when traveling to Lijiang. Blue Moon Valley is a must-see. How to take pictures? The water is blue and it's really beautiful. When you walk to the front, there's half green and half blue. There are a lot of people taking wedding photos here. The scenery here is really worth seeing. If you are traveling to Lijiang, it's a must-see attraction.

Lijiang Old Town

Lijiang Old Town

Lijiang Old Town, located in Lijiang City, Yunnan Province, is a World Cultural Heritage Site and a National Historic and Cultural City. Built in the late Song Dynasty, it boasts a history of over 800 years and boasts unique Naxi architecture and folk culture. Strolling through its red brick, green tile, and granite streets feels like stepping back in time. The area also boasts a rich variety of delicious food, handicrafts, and unique performances, leaving you wanting to linger. Lijiang Old Town is not only a tourist destination but also a perfect place to experience Naxi culture.

Zhongyi Market

Zhongyi Market

The goods here are incredibly affordable, all at wholesale prices. There's also a convenient express delivery station inside, so you can have your local specialties shipped directly to you. There are many small stalls set up by local residents at the entrance, all selling fresh fruits, vegetables and local specialties, which are very affordable!

There's not much to see at the night market during the day, but it gets lively at night! The snacks are really affordable, and transportation is also very convenient!
