Cloudy Charm in Lijiang🌦️

Step Into Lijiang’s Old World Charm & Snowy Peaks! 🌸❄️

Begin your adventure in the captivating Old Town of Lijiang. Wander timeless alleys lined with Naxi architecture, vibrant shops, and hidden tea houses—don’t miss a taste of local Pu’er tea culture, which makes for an authentic and soothing break! 📷 Top insta-worthy photo spots include the iconic stone bridges over the canals (catch reflections at sunrise or dusk), and the bustling Market Square for energetic vibes. Since Old Town is open all day year-round, you can truly immerse yourself at your own pace. If you’re on a short holiday, staying in the Old Town is pure convenience and atmosphere rolled into one.

Next, make your way north—about 15 km—to the magnificent Yulong Snow Mountain. Hire a local guide for this leg; they’ll help navigate tickets, cable cars, and show you snowy viewpoints that only insiders know about. Must-do experiences include riding the cableway to Glacier Park, walking the White Water River, and exploring the mystical Blue Moon Valley. Insta tip: Snap wide shots of the dramatic peaks at the upper station, and don’t miss close-ups of prayer flags fluttering against icy backgrounds.

Visiting tips: Lijiang’s altitude can take some getting used to—pace yourself and stay hydrated. Layers are essential; mountain weather shifts fast! The snow mountain operates 05:40-16:40, with admission at ¥60. Wear sunscreen and be wary of slippery paths.
