Wetlands scenic spot in Lijiang

Lashi lake wetland park is located 14 km from Lijiang Old Town, excellent place if you have a few hours to space, or you wish a nice one day trip. This scenic spot is very popular for bird watching, also to experience the Tea Horse Road by yourself. This area is home of two minorities: Naxi people and Yi people. Additionally, this wetland is a Ramsar site.

Horse riding can take between 30 to 90 minutes depending of the route you chose. Wetland park costs ¥30, or ¥50 if you want to experience birdwatching in boat. Most birds are types of gooses and ducks, although 57 different species have been identified to migrate during winter.

Inside the park, you get to visit the museum, a Naxi people nature god museum and several corridors with beautiful scenery. There are many rose decorations for some reason. Also, there are few shops in the entrance area of the park.

🚣‍♂️ It’s only inside certain park area, not allowed to go to Lashi lake. You get to chose between kayak, paddle boat or small motor boat (managed by local). Best option is kayak.
