    Ninglang.Lugu Lake Goddness Bay Scenic Area
    >100km from Xiangyun
    Highlights: Lugu Lake is located between Ninglang County of Yunnan Province and Yanyuan County of Sichuan Province. It is named as such because it is shaped like a gourd. The lake is about 2,600 meters above sea level and locals see it as a beautiful pearl shining among the hills of the Northwest plateau. The Mosuo people living on the lake are one of the key highlights of the attraction. They are one of the few matriarchal societies remaining in modern world as women play the role of production and management, holding the principal position in society. There is no marriage, men stay in the women's home as mates called 'Axia' and the intimate relationship lasts as long as they like. While on board a local boat, you will notice that the lake is crystal-clear with swarms of seagulls flying over the water. The surrounding scenery is like a painting that is worth seeing at least once a lifetime!

    "A rough understanding of the architectural culture of various ethnic groups, very similar to the window of the world in Shenzhen, many basic services in the park have to spend money not so cheap, it was very tired before, at least 3-4 an hour, but if you soak in it for a day, it is still possible. In addition, there is a distance from Dianchi Lake. There is a car outside but there is still a charge. There is a calligrapher's composition on the boat that can be bought for 200 yuan."

    "The south bank of the Tiger Leaping Gorge Scenic Area is the Yulong Snow Mountain. The main peak is up to 5596 meters above sea level, and the north bank Haba Snow Mountain is 5396 meters above sea level. Due to the tight constraints of the mountains on both sides of the Straits, the river is only more than 50 meters wide after entering the Gorge. The narrowest place is the tiger leopard leaping over, so it is called the Tiger Leaping Gorge. The canyon is 80 kilometers away from the downtown area of Lijiang City. The canyon is upstream of the Jinsha River. It is 17 kilometers long and 25 kilometers on the roundabout road. The vertical height difference of the canyon is more than 3,900 meters. It is one of the deepest canyons in the world. Due to the landslide, the current boulders have been left, resulting in more rough water. It is divided into three sections: upper tiger jump, middle tiger jump, and lower tiger jump. The main scenic spot of Tiger Leaping Gorge is upper tiger jump. Lijiang (and Shangri-La) passenger terminals have buses to the scenic spot for two hours. The scenic spot can be played in about 1 hour, and the steps can be down to the canyon in more than ten minutes. The tiger jumping scenic spot, the passage of the Jinsha River is very powerful. The bus can also go to the Tiger Jump on the way, but the Tiger Jump is a hiking route, not a scenic spot, half an hour from the Zhang teacher inn to the canyon, and then climb up for 1.5 hours (or the 168-level ladder climbs up faster), this route will be a bit tired, the scenery is worse than the Tiger Jump, the river is not so powerful."

On both sides are the snow-capped mountains of Yulong and Haba. The narrowest part of the river is only twenty or thirty meters and with the huge drop, the river flows very rapidly! Tiger Leaping Gorge is also a world-renowned hiking resort visited by many outdoor enthusiasts every year.

    "You must choose a good weather when you go up the mountain. If the visibility is low, the experience is not good. At the end of May, Cangshan, full of rhododendrons on the top of the mountain, the visual effect is much better than the photos. It is worth going to the plank road to Ximatan."
