Lijiang Videos

The Old Town of Lijiang is a spot with a typical flavor of ethnic China. The Naxi people are hospitable and welcome visitors with their traditional dances. The ancient architectural style and clear water spanned by elegant bridges are sure to leave you with deep impressions.

Lugu Lake lies 200 kilometers (124 miles) from the center of Lijiang City, on the border between Ninglang County in Yunnan Province and Yanyuan County in Sichuan Province. With crystal clear water, small islands hidden in lush greens, and the surrounding Gemu Godness Mountain, Lugu Lake presents a fine painting before your eyes. The legends of water monsters and Mosuo People dwelling by the waterside are also appealing to visitors.

At the foot of Elephant Hill in Northern Lijiang Ancient Town lies Heilongtan Park. Here the pool is fed by gushing emerald springs and so the park is known also as the Jade Spring Park. Historic features including the Longshen Temple, Deyue Pavilion and Suocui Bridge can be seen in the park.
