Lugu Lake Magic✨

Exploring Jinggangshan and Ninglang was a legit highlight—the stunning lakes and the chance to meet local tribes made it a must for anyone craving nature + culture! 🌄✨

Top Spots to Visit:
📍 Lugu Lake Scenic Area
Address: Lugu Lake Town, Ninglang County, Lijiang City
Hours: Open year-round, 24/7
Admission: ¥70 (grab your tickets early to skip lines)

Dive into the blue—Lugu Lake’s views are unreal in any weather, and even on a cloudy day, the mist makes the scenery feel extra mystical. Snap pics lakeside, then get ready to meet the Mosuo and Yi tribes who call this place home. Take a stroll along the banks, chat with locals, and if you’re lucky, catch a glimpse of their “walking marriage” culture and traditional homes—major story inspiration!

My tip: Make time to actually talk to a few tribe members if you can. Their stories make the lake even more memorable, and they’ll point out secret chill spots most tourists miss. 👣

Getting Around:
Local buses serve Ninglang, or grab a cab for direct lake access—super affordable. The scenic roads give you epic photo ops, so keep your camera out!

Food:
Go village-style and try local fish dishes right by the water. Plenty of lakeside restaurants serve super-fresh catches and Mosuo specialties you won’t find anywhere else.

Essentials:
Bring layers—it can get cool by the lake. Cash is king in remote areas, and your ticket covers a full-day roam.
