Lugu Lake | Entering the Secret Realm of Mosuo, a 48-Hour Slow Life Guide

✨ The healing magic of "Eastern Women's Kingdom"——

Rowing a pig trough boat in the early morning broke into the pure white dream of "watery willows".
In the afternoon, wait for a glittering costume show at the Lake View Cafe on the Rigg Peninsula.

At dusk, I followed the Mosuo grandma to learn how to braid colorful braids and wrap the sunset into the ends of my hair.

🔥 Three must-try rituals:

1️⃣ Cycling around the lake: Caohai Walking Marriage Bridge → Goddess Bay, collect 7 kinds of blue along the way

2️⃣ Starry sky camping: lying at the foot of Mount Gemu and watching the Milky Way fall into the lake

3️⃣ Fireside Night Talk: Drink Surima wine, listen to Mosuo stories, and learn a "Naxi" love word


🍃 Hidden gameplay:

▪️ Visit the original grandmother's house and try on colorful sheepskin shawls

▪️ Row a boat to Princess Island and touch the romantic relics of the last chieftain

📌 Aboriginal advice:

✓ See the sea of ​​flowers from June to September and encounter red-billed gulls in November
✓ Sun protection! Ultraviolet rays at high altitudes can "steal" collagen
✓ Choose a lakeside room at a B&B, and you’ll see the cover of National Geographic right before your eyes

🚗 Traffic Easter Eggs:

4h drive from Lijiang (charter costs about 200 yuan/person)
Or take the "Sky Mirror" sightseeing helicopter (15 minutes direct)
