1, line

There is no direct flight, so you have to transfer to Kunming.

Step 2 be alive

There are many inns in Old Town of Lijiang, with prices ranging from 40 ordinary rooms in 60 yuan and 60 double-standard rooms in 80 yuan to several hundred yuan. Some inns have their own websites, which can be found online. If you don't do your homework well, you can stay first. The next day, while visiting the ancient city, you can slowly find what you like. My hotel is called Lijiang River in Yun Qi. I prefer the environment and atmosphere there. It's about 10 minutes from Sifang Street, not too far. You can be quiet at night. The host arranged some flowers and plants in the main courtyard, and also provided free tea such as Pu 'er and Lan Guiren. The price of standard rooms here ranges from 120 to 140 a day. The rooms in 120 are all luxury standard rooms, giving people a particularly warm feeling, and they are all brand-name bathrooms. 140 is a duplex room. The first floor is the living room and bathroom, and the second floor is the bedroom. The inn is equipped with two computers for passengers to use for free, and also provides wireless Internet access (many inns provide this service), so my cat drank tea in the inn for a few days, surfed the Internet for a few days, and chatted with other donkey friends. It was a cool day! Yun Qi Hotel also has a villa specially designed for family travel. Conditions are better. A * * * four rooms, 800 a night, worth it. There is a kitchen, automatic washing machine and independent balcony. A new hospital was opened when I left, and it was well decorated. In addition, the inn also helps you keep the goods for free. Even if you don't live in an inn, many people who live are introduced by friends. Interested friends can search their website-Lijiang River in Yun Qi. Remind everyone that during the peak season, inn prices will increase, and some inn prices will double. The accommodation conditions of multi-day tour will be worse than Lijiang Inn. Yubeng's accommodation is only ordinary rooms, while Lugu Lake's inn has a separate bathroom, but for environmental protection, the local area does not provide disposable toiletries.

Eat something

Going out, besides living, eating is also very important! But there are really no special snacks in Lijiang: rice noodles and Baba are everywhere, and you can't tell which is more authentic. The specialties recommended by others are "Yujie ribs" and "Ashou black goat with skin", which feel ordinary and are not much different from hot pot. If you want to eat real Lijiang local snacks, you can try "Old Lijiang Hotel". The price is a little expensive, but it tastes good, and the amount given is still very kind. Several people can benefit a lot from fighting together. Meals for multi-day tours are self-care, generally AA. In some places, the food is poor and the price is much more expensive. Yubeng Village, a live chicken costs 100 yuan! Lijiang specialty snacks suggest going to Xiangshan market and Zhong Yi market, which are very expensive in the ancient city, and don't even eat them.

Step 4 travel

Go to Lijiang and visit different scenic spots at different times! In winter, you can't feel the thrilling momentum when you go to Tiger Leaping Gorge because of the low water, but it is a good time to go to Meili to see Rizhao Jinshan and it. In mid-May, the shrub rhododendron in Xiaozhongdian was in full bloom, but it was a month late to see the rhododendron in the alpine tree. The grass sea in Lugu Lake will be beautiful in June and July, but the rainy season is coming, and the road to Lugu Lake may not be easy ... so it is difficult to see all the scenery at once in Lijiang.

Introduce several tourist routes:

A two-day tour of Tiger Leaping Gorge+Shangri-La is worth a visit if you can't go to Rainstorm or Meili, but don't go in winter because you can't see anything. I played absolutely pure, with no traps. I can't remember the cost clearly. Maybe 450.

B Shuhe+Lashihai 1 One-day tour includes horseback riding and boating. I haven't played this route, but it feels good. I must play it next time.

C 4-day tour of Meilimingyong Glacier, you can visit Tiger Leaping Gorge, Xiaozhongdian Huahai, Dongchikulinji, Moon Bay, Napahai/Yilacaohai, Mingyong Glacier, Lashihai and other scenic spots. The whole price is around 900 yuan. There are many 400-500 shops on the street, claiming not to shop, but there are still traps and they are not recommended. We ordered it from the Donkey Outdoor Club.

The 6-day tour of D Rain Collapse includes not only Mingyong Glacier on the E route, but also Shenwaterfall and mountaineering base camp. In addition, some travel agencies have added Ninon to their routes. If you have enough time, I recommend this route, which includes some hiking (you can also choose horseback riding). Yubeng Village is a paradise! The scenery along Yubeng-Ninong Road is also beautiful! Don't miss friends who like hiking! Total cost 1200 yuan, including 5 days' accommodation, scenic spot tickets and insurance (excluding riding fee).

E 2(3) One-day tour of Lugu Lake, from Lijiang to Lugu Lake for at least 7 hours, you can't finish it in two days. I chose to walk, and my leg was hurt, hehe, a little masochistic. Personally, I think the most beautiful place in Lugu Lake is Li Ge. You can also take a cable car to goddess peak to overlook the whole Lugu Lake. But if you want to see goddess peak, you have to go to Luoshui, and Caohai is opposite Rige-you can see different beautiful scenery when you look at Lugu Lake in different places! Lugu Lake round-trip ticket price 120 yuan, scenic spot ticket 80 yuan.

F Yulong Snow Mountain 1 One-day tour Yulong is very close to Lijiang. On a sunny day, you can see Yulong from the front of Wangu Building. Personally, I think this route is expensive. If you want to go to Yubeng or Meili, you can give up Yulong.

In addition, there is a day trip to Thousand Turtles Mountain at dawn, so I won't introduce them one by one.

Step 5 buy

In Old Town of Lijiang, especially Sifang Street, there are all kinds of small shops selling stones, jade articles and national costumes. The price difference is very big: the price of the same bracelet in different stores can range from 10 yuan to nearly 100 yuan! So whatever you like, don't buy it at once. If you shop more, you may get cheaper goods. In addition, someone told me that the so-called 99 sterling silver in various silver shops is not pure silver at all; The delicious "dried yak meat" may not be beef at all ... As for the jade, turquoise, beeswax and other accessories in the jewelry store, unless you know the goods, it is better to buy less! I think Naxi woodcarving, Mosuo women's shawl, batik and other ethnic products are worth buying.

Step 6 go to a nightclub

In Lijiang, bars and affairs are inseparable. At night, the bar street is very noisy, and all the bars are competing to attract tourists. But I think it's too much, and I'm annoyed. And I heard a friend in the same inn say that he asked for more than 50 bottles of "blue ribbon" and more than 300 pots of camellia in a bar (he didn't ask the price in advance), and I was even more afraid. Some inns and travel agencies seem to have some discount cards for bars, which can be cheaper.

7. Other suggestions and tips:

A You'd better open an online banking card before going out. Booking air tickets online can be at least cheaper than the ticket office 1%! Moreover, many shops in Lijiang support credit cards, so it is convenient and safe to open online banking cards (beware of Trojans when booking online)!

B Lijiang has many ethnic minority areas and various scenic spots. Please respect the customs and habits of ethnic minorities. For example, you can't wear hats and colored glasses when you go to Dongqikulingji, and you can't take pictures in many places; Don't touch the heads of Tibetan children, only living buddhas can touch them and so on.

C environmental protection: please don't litter everywhere. On the way from the west swing to the rain collapse, you often see all kinds of food packaging bags and empty beverage bottles. In fact, there are many garbage disposal points along the way. Please friends "don't do evil", so that our future generations can also see today's beautiful scenery!

D Lijiang has a large temperature difference in the morning and evening, especially when it rains and the temperature is low. It is very easy to catch a cold, so you should bring some thick clothes appropriately. In addition, necessary medicines such as cold medicine/gastrointestinal medicine should be prepared.

E Lijiang is located in the plateau, with strong ultraviolet radiation. Sunshade and sunscreen are essential.

All right, that's all. I hope you have a good time when you get to Lijiang.
