Lijiang is really beautiful, starting my slow life rhythm!
I flew to Lijiang, Yunnan to start a journey of encounter
I was a morning flight so I arrived in Lijiang quite early
This time I didn't choose to live in the ancient city
I chose a homestay outside the city
A holiday homestay with a view of the snow mountain - Ruidi Xiaozhu·Future Art Courtyard Holiday Homestay (Lijiang Snow Mountain View Store)
The homestay is quite large, each room is a different style, and the room area is also very large and not crowded at all
We are a family of four, chose the family room
The homestay is close to the ancient city north gate waterwheel and Black Dragon Pool Park
In the morning, the sixth floor can enjoy the sunrise over the golden mountain while eating breakfast
Itinerary
DAY1: Shuhe Ancient Town
Check into the hotel and see if time permits, you can go to Shuhe Ancient Town or Lijiang Ancient City (choose one)
I went to Shuhe Ancient Town, which has fewer people than the ancient city, mainly a slow rhythm, and not so commercialized
It's easy to take pictures while walking around
DAY2: Lijiang Ancient City
Lijiang Ancient City, I started from the waterwheel, entered from the west gate and exited from the north gate
Waterwheel--Dayan Flower Lane--Yichi Lane--Lion Mountain--Oil Paper Umbrella Lane--Wood House--Zhongyi Market--Wind Bell Street--
Three-eye Well--Dashi Bridge--May 1st Street
Actually, this route can be changed, for example, those who like to play can go to the city center Sifang Street, Dashi Bridge
Those who like quiet can go to the southeast of the city
DAY3: Jade Dragon Snow Mountain
Drive to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain (you can also choose a day trip) It is difficult to buy a large cable car ticket on site
The official is to release the number at 20:00 the day before, it is difficult to grab in the peak season, and it depends on luck in the off-season
There is a mountain entry ticket for Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, 100 yuan per person
After getting off the snow mountain, go directly to Blue Moon Valley, a clear and sweet river, the most beautiful moment at noon
Yunshanping and Yak Meadow, I think you can choose one
I chose the Yak Meadow, the cable car ticket is 65 yuan
There are not as many people in Yak Meadow as the first two, but I like to shoot the snow mountain quietly here, the summer is full of flowers, the yaks are grazing and walking in groups, and the winter is very vast.
📝Note tips:
I am just a lazy way to play, since I came to Yunnan, I have to enjoy the slow life here, and if I bring two children with me, they will be tired if they walk too much. If you have plenty of time, it is recommended to slowly appreciate the beauty of Lijiang, Yunnan, or you can play in a special forces style, but that is not suitable for people like me with children.
