Ten most beautiful ancient towns in China. Lijiang

Lijiang is located in the northwest Yunnan Plateau and the middle reaches of Jinsha River. Represented by "two mountains, one city, one lake, one river, one culture and one customs", it attracts thousands of tourists all the year round. The second mountain refers to Yulong Snow Mountain and Laojun Mountain; One city is Old Town of Lijiang, Dayan ancient city; One river is Jinsha River; Culture refers to Naxi Dongba culture; One is Mosuo style. Lijiang is known as the "commercial capital". I don't know whether it's because of the small bridge and flowing water in Old Town of Lijiang that this style has been achieved, or whether the lazy and charming temperament of the bar street makes the amorous passers-by infatuated after nightfall. The night in the ancient city of Yan is psychedelic and charming. If there are a thousand small villages in the hearts of a thousand readers, there are ten thousand Lijiang in the hearts of ten thousand tourists. Lijiang is very noisy, and you can party all night; Lijiang is very quiet. You can sit in the sunny yard for a long time. This ancient city full of love and adventure is full of affection and sensibility.

Whether it's the blue sky and white clouds, the gurgling snow-capped mountains, the people who smoke from the kitchen, the amorous feelings bars and all the leisurely creatures, how can all this not make people look at her and be crazy about her? We came to Lijiang, met ourselves, forgot the past, strolled in the ancient city, felt the flowers and trees in our spare time, and let the afternoon sunshine shine into the softest place in our hearts.

Transportation: self-driving or self-driving. There are buses from Kunming to Lijiang and trains from Kunming to Anning-Chuxiong-Dali-Heqing-Lijiang in the western passenger station.

Summer: June-August, the rainy season of flower season, with wild flowers everywhere, flowers everywhere in the field, and all kinds of Haizi have entered the water bloom period, which is the most beautiful time. But the rainy season is also foggy, so it is difficult to see the true face of the snow-capped mountains. June 24th of the lunar calendar is the Torch Festival of Naxi people, and torches will be lit at the door of every household in the ancient city. Autumn: September-165438+1October, when the harvest season comes, the weather turns cold, the sky is covered with dark clouds, the vegetation is lush and the weather is sunny, which is the most comfortable and pleasant season in Lijiang.
