Day 5: Shaxi - Lijiang
Yujin Bridge (go early to see the morning mist) ➡️ Stroll around Shaxi ➡️ Xianfeng Bookstore (I also bought my favorite Wacat in Shaxi, the owner is very Buddhist, when I walked into the store, the owner was very enthusiastic to introduce me to the history and use of Wacat. When I asked how much it was, the owner said, "I don't often have people come into this store, I can't remember how much it is, I see you really like it, I'll give it to you." I only paid after my insistence.)
🏨: InterContinental Lijiang Ancient Town Resort 🌟 recommended, the park is very large, you need to take a shuttle bus
