The late autumn Lashi Lake is as beautiful as a palette

Located 10 kilometers west of Lijiang city, Lashi Lake in Lijiang looks like a palette in late autumn. The area is rich in water and lush grass, with green grass by the lakeside and schools of fish and shrimp in the water, creating a very beautiful environment. Every late autumn, it becomes a wintering habitat for migratory birds, with hundreds of thousands of birds flying here. Early morning and evening are the best times for bird watching. At this time, fiery red maple, golden ginkgo, and deep purple Chinese tallow trees line the lakeshore, and flocks of migratory birds skim over the water, resembling a painting. Visitors can ride horses through the wetlands and surrounding villages, listening to the horsemen tell stories of the Naxi people; they can also rent boats to row on the lake and enjoy grilled fish leisurely. Come to Lashi Lake and experience the unique charm where nature and culture intertwine!
