I regret not coming to Lijiang Shuhe Ancient Town sooner!

I finally made it to the laid-back and relaxing🚶🏻‍♀️ Shuhe Ancient Town, and it's truly beautiful and healing🥰. Here's my travel experience: Transportation🚗 🚕 Self-driving: From downtown Lijiang, follow the navigation📲 instructions. The drive takes about half an hour⏰, and there are many parking lots🅿️ around the ancient town. 🚌 Public transportation: From the north gate of Lijiang Ancient Town, take bus No. 6 to Baisha intersection and walk🚶🏻‍♀️ 200m to the entrance of the ancient town. Bus No. 11 goes to Shuhe intersection📍, but it's a bit further to walk😚. ✈️ Airplane and high-speed rail🚄: Visitors from other areas can fly to Lijiang Sanyi Airport or take the high-speed rail to Lijiang Station📍, then transfer to the airport bus🚌, public bus, or take a taxi🚗. Must-See Attractions📸 ✅ Sifang Tingyin Square: This is the cultural center📝 of the ancient town. During the day, there are wonderful Naxi song and dance performances💃🏻, with performers wearing brightly colored traditional costumes and dancing gracefully🕺🏻, allowing you to experience the rich ethnic customs. In the evening, there's a bonfire party🌋, where everyone holds hands and dances💃🏻 around the bonfire, with laughter echoing through the square👀. ✅ Qinglong Bridge: This 400-year-old ancient bridge⛩ is an important testament to the Tea Horse Road. Standing on the bridge🚶🏻‍♀️, you can almost see the bustling scenes of caravans carrying goods back and forth🙉. The west side of the bridge faces Jubao Mountain🏔, where the lush vegetation🌳 contrasts with the Qinglong River below😘, creating a beautiful landscape painting🥳. ✅ Jiuding Longtan: Also known as "Dragon Spring"🌊, the water in the pool is crystal clear, surrounded by lush trees🌴, swaying water plants🌱, and many colorful carp swimming freely. This is the source of the ancient town's streams🏝, with a tranquil environment that makes you feel like you're in a fairyland👀. ✅ Fei Hua Chu Shui: The core waterscape alley area🥰 of the ancient town, with unique artificial bridges and flowing water features😘. There are many restaurants and bars along the banks🥃. Sitting in a rocking chair, listening to soothing music, admiring the surrounding scenery🏞, and feeling the gentle breeze is truly enjoyable🥳. Food Recommendations🍱 ✔️ Cured Ribs: A Lijiang specialty, the ribs are stewed until tender and flavorful😍, with firm and juicy meat. ✔️ Deep-fried Tofu: Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside😘, served with dry seasonings and dipping sauce, it's delicious🥰. ✔️ Chicken Soup Rice Noodles: Chicken soup base🍲, with meat slices and vegetables cooked with rice noodles🍜, the soup is fresh and delicious. ✔️ Wild Mushroom Hot Pot: Available in summer and autumn🥙, the wild mushrooms are plump and flavorful🙉. ✔️ Chickpea Jelly: Smooth texture🍝, sour and spicy. 🏘 Accommodation Ancient Town Inns: Mostly renovated from traditional houses🏡, retaining the ancient appearance and interior decoration, allowing you to experience the Naxi culture🥰. High-end Resort Hotels💒: There are high-end resort hotels around the ancient town with complete facilities and attentive service, offering panoramic views of the ancient town👀. Those who love to travel to Lijiang can go for it🥳!
