I’m finally here in Lijiang! I’ve been looking forward to this trip to Lijiang, and today I’m finally here. As Dong Qing said, the meaning of travel is to see the landscapes, observe the world, meet people, and find yourself. When I walked out of the high-speed railway station, I felt an indescribable sense of ease—the sky is so blue, and even the air tastes sweet! I took a taxi to the entrance of the ancient town, and once inside, I found the Young Marshal Li Mansion. There aren’t too many people in the town right now; I chose to stay at the Young Marshal Li Mansion because the courtyard just felt right the moment I stepped in—it’s exactly what I’d hoped for. The owner is super warm, and so are the staff. The owner said, “When you travel alone, you can hear your own voice. It will tell you that the world is much broader than we imagine!” He also kindly reminded me of some safety tips. The most healing part of this inn is its viewing and leisure platform—a glass of beer and a book can make me feel happy all day. The guests coming and going all have smiles on their faces; we chat about our youthful dreams, passions, growth, and life insights...

“Accidentally Booked a Lijiang Palace (Not a Hotel)—Here’s Why I’m Extending My Stay” Guys. I thought I booked a normal inn in Lijiang… but I walked into a wooden courtyard fairy tale (with free Wi-Fi, thank god). • The vibe: Imagine a historical drama set, but you can actually sleep in the pretty carved rooms (and the beds are so soft). • Location cheat code: 240m from Old Town and the Big Waterwheel—no 20-minute walks after stuffing your face with street food (critical). • Staff = real MVPs: Forgot my charger? They handed me one mid-sentence. Asked for tea recs? They sat down and chatted for 10 mins (no “professional” coldness here). Downside: I’m now debating extending my trip because I don’t wanna leave the courtyard (send help… but also don’t). Book this before it gets too famous. You’re welcome.

Dreaming of a wander through Lijiang’s fairytale alleys, magical evening lights, and courtyards overflowing with flowers? 🌸✨ Staying at Shaoshuai Lifu Boutique Courtyard was the ultimate combo of old-town charm and local hospitality. Must-Stay: Shaoshuai Lifu Boutique Courtyard (No. 33 Jishan Lane, Xinyi Street) This boutique spot is tucked right in the heart of Lijiang ancient town. Expect friendly, super-attentive staff ready with luggage help, travel tips, and round-the-clock support. Loved the vibes: daily housekeeping, heated beds for chilly nights, and even rooftop rooms with epic views of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Local Vibes: Don’t miss the flower-filled courtyards! Seriously, they turn golden hour and nighttime into something almost magical—Lijiang just glows after sunset. The small gardens full of succulents are the perfect Insta backdrop. Getting Around: Arrive with Didi or by train—hotel can arrange luggage pickup at the entrance or station. Exploring the old town by foot is best; comfy shoes a must! Eat & Explore: Sample the local Naxi snacks nearby or grab tea on a balcony overlooking the flower courtyards. Don’t miss the evening lights—perfect for a stroll after dinner. #LijiangDreams #AncientTownStay #TravelTips #BoutiqueHotel #ChinaWanderlust

Had a very short trip to Lijiang, but it was worth every moment! I got the chance to try their traditional costumes—both Tibetan and Hanfu—at a reasonable price. The photos turned out like we were cast in a Chinese drama 😂 Just look at these beautiful sceneries, all located within Lijiang Ancient Town—everything is within walking distance! We also had an amazing one-day trip to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and I just want to brag a little… we made it all the way to the top! So proud of myself 💪 I highly recommend adding Lijiang to your travel list. I booked all my train tickets and hotel through Trip.com, and it was really easy to use!
