Welcome to the world-class ancient kingdom of the Naxi people, the Baisha Old Town in Lijiang, a UNESCO World Heritage Site 🙇🏻.

Welcome to the world-class ancient kingdom of the Naxi people, the Baisha Old Town in Lijiang, a UNESCO World Heritage Site 🙇🏻. 🍀 Nestled about 10 kilometers north of Lijiang city, Baisha Old Town is bordered by the majestic Jade Dragon Snow Mountain to the north, Dragon Spring to the south, and relies on Zhishan to the west. It is the ancient capital of the Naxi people, the world-class "Ancient Naxi Kingdom", and was once the center of Naxi's political, economic, commercial, and cultural life. ❣️ Some say that Baisha is reminiscent of Lijiang a decade ago. Here, you will find a quaint commercial street and many local Naxi courtyards, preserving the original appearance of the ancient town. Moreover, a glance upward reveals the breathtaking view of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. 📝 The souvenir shops mainly sell two types of items: tie-dye products and various antique replicas. There are also some cafes and snack bars. Compared to the bustling commercial atmosphere of Dayan and Shuhe, Baisha Old Town is a relatively tranquil place. 💡 Interestingly, although the streets here are quite old, almost all the doors and windows on the street have stylish English signs. Some shopkeepers can even conduct business in English with foreign tourists. This is because most of the visitors to Baisha in the past were foreigners who preferred the simple and primitive Naxi folk customs, prompting the locals to learn foreign languages. 📝 Address: Baisha Town, Yulong Naxi Autonomous County, Lijiang City 📌 Place Name: Baisha Old Town 🎫 Ticket: Free 💡 Recommended Visit Duration: 1-2 hours Tips: ① The ancient town is not large, so you don't need to allocate too much time for your visit. ② It is recommended to visit Shuhe Old Town and Baisha Old Town together. ③ There is a bus from Shuhe Old Town to Baisha Old Town, making it very convenient to reach.
