Attractions worth visiting in Lijiang:

1: Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. There are two ways to go. The first is to take a one-day tour with a travel agency. There is a travel agency opposite the waterwheel in the ancient city, and the price is relatively reasonable. But time is relatively constrained and not free. The second is to rent a car by yourself, mostly from Changan Bread (it is better to rent a car with four or five people). No matter which way, there are two options in Jade Dragon Snow Mountain: small ropeway or large ropeway. The small ropeway leads to Maoniuping. Halfway up the snow-capped mountains, there is an alpine meadow where you can see the snow-capped mountains in the distance. The large ropeway can go straight up to the glacier, reaching a maximum altitude of 4680M. Each has its own merits, but generally in winter the snow-capped mountain tops will be shrouded in clouds and mist every afternoon. The price of the large ropeway is relatively expensive. It is said that the price has increased to 480RMB. If you rent a car by yourself, it is recommended to go early in the morning. You can contact the car outside the ancient city one day in advance and leave early the next morning. If you have time in the afternoon, you can go to Shuhe Ancient Town. If you don’t have time, you won’t lose anything if you don’t go.

2: Lashihai This is a typical plateau lake. It is about 5-7KM away from the ancient city. Winter is the best season. Many seasonal migratory waterbirds spend the winter here, especially there are many wild ducks, which are very fat. The best way to travel is by bicycle. Generally, many hotels have bicycle rentals for 10-15 RMB per day, or there are bicycle rentals at the Red Sun Plaza in Xincheng for 15 RMB/day, with a bottle of mineral water and a hand-drawn map. (2004 Spring Festival price) According to the locals: the whole road is easy to walk, but it has to climb a small slope. However, I can tell you responsibly that the so-called small slope is called Huangshan Pass. It is a hill, not a small slope. But it felt good all the way, and it was worth being so tired, especially when going down the mountain. The bike was racing on the mountain road, and it felt like freedom. Tip: Bring plenty of water with you. You can walk along the path along the seaside. It’s very free and you don’t have to worry about getting lost and it’s impossible to get lost. The local residents are very hospitable and can at least ask for some boiled water. There are generally not many people in the morning. Don't go in the scenic area, there is no point, just ride around. 3: Shigu, Tiger Leaping Gorge Shigu Town is located 45 kilometers northwest of Lijiang City, where the first bay of the Yangtze River is located. It is recommended to take a one-day tour, it is simple and convenient. If you rent a car, inquire about the itinerary in detail before going. Because I went to Tiger Leaping Gorge for a hike and it felt good. I don’t need to introduce this. The only thing I want to emphasize is that the best small hotel I have ever stayed in is HALF WAY. I must do it on the balcony to make it worthwhile. Above the line, there are places worth visiting in the surrounding areas, which are not far away. There are also some things like Shuhe Ancient Town that are not worth visiting. But the essence of Lijiang is in the ancient city.

There are also some scenic spots in the ancient city.

1: Sifang Street is the core of the ancient city. If you live there, you will pass by it several times every day. It’s very commercial now, with small stalls everywhere. It's a shame, but I feel great in the morning.

2: The official office of the Lijiang chieftain in Mufu.

I love watching them do it, it's very interesting. The local printing and dyeing method in Lijiang is tie-dying. Tie-dye generally uses isatis root as dye and coarse white cloth. If there is anything selling batik, it is not a local product, it is usually shipped from Dali. If Naxi people's clothes don't look good, there's no need to sell them. There are no local mineral deposits in Lijiang, so those who sell crystals are from other places. They seem to be more expensive than Chengdu, and not in good quality. The other so-called souvenir shops are not interesting. Those things are imitations that can be bought in any tourist area in Yunnan (or Sichuan). There are no fruit sellers in Lijiang Old Town, probably to prevent the peels from being thrown around. I'm not very interested in eating, so I don't know much about special snacks. Naxi’s traditional food is too greasy. Because the local water is very hard and has high mineral content, the locals are not obese and regard fatness as a beauty. The only local food I have an impression of is Lijiang Baba, which is horribly greasy. Other items such as steam pot chicken are all passed down from Dali, and there are also many fried foods. This depends on personal preference. Of course, there is also Yunnan’s specialty food - rice noodles. Personally, I think Lijiang’s rice noodles have no special characteristics. Eating in the ancient city is a bit expensive, more expensive than Chengdu, but the prices in the new city are more reasonable, about the same as Chengdu. It is recommended not to eat in the ancient city as much as possible. Personal feeling: The best season is winter, preferably after November. The sun is shining every day, and the sun in winter is very comfortable, but the sun there in summer is unbearable. It is possible to get lost in the ancient city at night. It is best not to wander around in the alleys and go directly back to Sifang Street. The entire ancient city is based on Sifang Street. Also, the TV tower can be seen from anywhere and is the best road sign. Of course, there are many police patrols at night, and you can also let them lead the way. This is the best way.

The most unmissable things in Lijiang:

1 The quiet streets of the ancient city in the early morning, the dim street lights, and the shimmering stone pavement are the most beautiful moments of the ancient city.

2 The sky is blue, the water is green, the grass is yellow, and the wind is strong. Wild ducks fly across the sky, and the sun warms the face. Lie on the grass by the sea, feel the scorching winter sun, and appreciate your own insignificance.

3 No matter what the glacier of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is, not everyone can appreciate the height of 4680M. Jump there, maybe that's the highest place you can stand on your feet.

4 Watching the dancing flames beside the fire pit in a daze, listening to the languages ??from all over the world, here, you will know the reason why Lijiang is Lijiang. Final advice:

1: Don’t be in a hurry, have enough time to experience and be in a daze. People who are in a hurry are not welcome here.

2: Don’t go during the holidays. At least, don’t go to Lijiang alone during the holiday season. Remember remember.

Lijiang travel tips:

1. It is best to travel by yourself. Especially when traveling around Lijiang, there is no need to join a group tour. Chartering a car is much better in terms of cost and convenience.

2. When taking a taxi in Lijiang, be sure to ask about the price first. Taxi management in Lijiang is chaotic. The only thing is that the price of chartered travel is basically reasonable.

4. Food in Lijiang is expensive. Especially when chartering a car to go out for fun, don’t listen to recommendations. It is recommended that everyone go out and prepare more dry food.
