Is it suitable to travel to Lijiang in winter?

Lijiang travel is suitable all year round. In winter, it is best to go to some snow-capped mountains. Lijiang belongs to a plateau area. Because of this attribute, Lijiang's climate has many weird features that cannot be understood in the city where you are. For example, the temperature difference between the sun and the shade, the temperature difference between morning and evening and noon, and the temperature difference between rain and sunrise, can reach up to ten degrees. If you are lucky, you will also experience the four seasons in one day. The weather changes at any time, which is quite shocking. It can be said that Lijiang needs coats almost all year round. Wear thin ones in spring and summer, and thick ones in autumn and winter. Anyway, wear them according to the general four-season wearing method, and put a coat on the outside (it is best to wear a coat that is easy to put on and take off). It's okay to dress according to this rule. As for down jackets, they won’t be needed until November.

It is best not to go early in the winter when going to Black Dragon Pool. It was too cold. We walked in and walked out trembling. Although someone reminded us that if we enter before 7:30, we can get free admission. But this way I won’t be able to enjoy the warm sunshine, let alone enjoy the beautiful scenery of the park. Moreover, the sun rises relatively late in Lijiang in winter. It only gets bright at 7:30 a.m. It takes almost 30 minutes from the ancient city to Black Dragon Pool, so you probably don’t want to find your way in the dark. .

When traveling to Lijiang, Yunnan in winter, you must go to Lashihai to see migratory birds and Meili Snow Mountain to see the Rizhao Jinshan Mountain. Lashihai is a good season for horse riding and boating all year round as long as it doesn’t rain. Lashihai is also a paradise for migratory birds. In winter, rare birds under national first-level protection fly to Lashihai to spend the winter. According to surveys, there are currently about 57 species of birds in the Lashihai Wetland, and about 30,000 birds come here to overwinter every year, including 9 species of unique, rare and endangered birds, including the bar-headed goose, a unique bird of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The national first-level protected birds are Chinese Mergansers, black-necked cranes, black cranes, etc. The most famous scenery of Meili Snow Mountain is Rizhao Jinshan. The probability of Rizhao Jinshan in winter is several times that of other seasons, and the Yubeng Village under the snow-capped mountains is the essence of Meili. Yubeng is a Tibetan natural village at the foot of the Goddess Peak of Meili Snow Mountain. Walking there feels like a paradise, and is the epitome of Shangri-La.
