Jade Dragon Snow Mountain

Jade Dragon Snow Mountain

Very crowded during Chinese holidays but queues move quickly. The view is beautiful and the air is so clean and fresh as you keep going up the stairs. We personally didn’t end up using our oxygen bottles but it’s better to have one just in case. You can buy it from downstairs or just get it after you get off the cable car. Tip for hiking up the stairs: the key to not get tired easily is to take your time and keep breathing at a steady pace. Enjoy the scenery and take it easy. it’s really not as frightening as people describe it.

A relaxed version of Lijiang

A relaxed version of Lijiang

Shuhe is an ancient Naxi town near Lijiang. There are shuttle buses running from Lijiang or it costs about 40 Yuan in a taxi. There are lots of hip and retro cafes bars to relax with live music. There are lots of interesting narrow streets especially near the river and temple area. A coffee will cost you 45 rmb, crazy expensive. I'd rather stay here than Lijiang Old Town, it's much quiter and chilled out. There is also a music performance in the square during the evenings.

Magnanimity in sight !

It was said that some 100 thousand years ago, the area of Jade dragon🐲 snow mountain was only ocean. And only when India bombarded into Asia caused disruption and led to the rise of these magnanimous natural wonders🥸💫. Made of limestone and basalt, 玉龙雪山🐉 is totally black and white. It also depends on the time of the year, that she shows herself in different colors. If you're ever in Lijiang never miss the chance to go to this mountain🏔️. It's super public friendly, and totally can be done by yourself. Never miss to buy the oxygen mask 😷 going up, you'll definitely need atleast one hiking one #yunnantravel #happylaborday #urbanexplorer #maydaytrip #maydaytrip#urbanexplorer#happylaborday

Lijiang, a direct flight away!

Lijiang Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, can be reached in several ways. ✈️ Direct flight from Thailand to Lijiang Airport. ✈️✈️ Direct flight from Thailand to Kunming Airport, then take a bus or high-speed train to Lijiang, a popular method among Thai tourists. Attractions in Lijiang include the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Lijiang Old Town. The Black Dragon Pool, located not far from the old town, is also worth visiting. The entrance fee for the Black Dragon Pool is 50 yuan per person, but it's free for seniors.

Trip to Lijiang

Trip to Lijiang

The beauty of Lijiang is indeed as famous as it is said to be! In Lijiang, I chose the Wyndham Grand Hotel in Jinlin. Located in the suburban Laihe Ancient Town, the environment is tranquil, with connected villas and independent courtyards. You can directly enjoy the magnificent view of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Shuhe Ancient Town, Baisha Ancient Town, and Lijiang Ancient City are must-visit places, each with its own characteristics. Transportation is convenient, with vehicles available both online and offline. Shuhe Ancient Town is closer to downtown Lijiang, with taxi fares around 40 yuan. Baisha Ancient Town is a bit further, with taxi fares around 80 yuan. Lijiang Ancient City feels different during the day and at night. The daytime is more suitable for strolling and photography. I highly recommend visiting the Mu Family Mansion. The Mu Family Mansion in Lijiang, also known as the Mu's Tusi Mansion, was the residence of the Naxi ethnic Mu family Tusi in Yunnan. The Mu surname was bestowed by Zhu Yuanzhang in the Ming Dynasty. Since the Mu family became hereditary Tusi (local chieftains) of Lijiang, they have gone through the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties for 22 generations, managing for over 470 years, and were the core of Lijiang Ancient City. There is a saying, 'The Forbidden City in the north, the Mu Family Mansion in the south.' The architecture of the Mu Family Mansion incorporates features of Han, Tibetan, Naxi, and other ethnic groups, with an ancient charm and unique style. In the Mu Family Mansion, there are exotic flowers and plants everywhere, especially the pigeon tree that houses giant pandas within its branches and the 600-year-old towering ancient cypress. At night, Lijiang is brilliantly lit with neon lights, offering a different style. Every spot is suitable for photography. I suggest climbing to the Wangu Pavilion on Lion Hill at night. The Wangu Pavilion in Lijiang is located at a commanding height on Lion Hill in Lijiang Ancient City and is also the backyard of the Mu Family Mansion. The Wangu Pavilion is part of the Mu Family Mansion, the estate of the Mu family Tusi. The Wangu Pavilion, illuminated by night lights, is dazzlingly beautiful, like a fairyland. For Lijiang cuisine, I recommend trying the Crossing-the-Bridge Noodles and black goat meat, which are truly exceptional in flavor!

Tinghua Valley💐

I fell in love the very first moment my eyes landed on this place. It's just so stunning. The beauty of this place is like the Huayu Ranch in Dali. The place has variety of flowers. It has a small pond, colorful jeepneys, and white houses which added to make the place more magnificent. A lot of couples are doing their prenup photoshoot here, some even held their wedding ceremony. The place is suitable for picnic. I recommend if you like to do so, don't forget to bring a picnic mat and snacks, you can sleep under the tree. The place is so relaxing. Worth a visit! Entrance fee: 80/person Kids are free of charge #awesomepic #naturalwonders #themepark

Wufeng Pavilion | Lijiang

One of the top places to visit that’s tranquil, and just beautiful is this pavilion. Close to the Old Town of Lijiang you can visit this area, one can hike up the mountain but we didn’t. The cost is 50 rmb and at the gate the park members will help you get digital tickets. You can walk and enjoy the scenic lake and the stunning colors. 🚘🚲 You can bike or take a car very easy ⏰ 9:00 am to 5:00 pm #nationalpark #lijiangtravel

What a surprise!!...

What a surprise!!...

We ate at this fish soup restaurant in Lijiang Ancient Town, next to Lion Hill and Wangu Tower, and it turns out they have their own fish farm. Who would have thought? The fish in the restaurant's tank are all from their own farm, so they can be freshly killed for customers. No wonder my dad, who doesn't eat salmon, ate it here. I ate a lot, and their salmon was especially tender! The wasabi was just the right level of spiciness. This is definitely the kind of salmon that you can't forget after just one bite!
