Lijiang Airport has opened direct flights to Kunming, Chengdu, Chongqing, Tengchong, Mianyang, Zhengzhou, Tianjin, Xiamen, Dalian, Guiyang, Changsha, Wuhan, Xi, Nanjing, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Beijing and Xishuangbanna.
Other cities that cannot fly directly to Lijiang can choose to fly to Kunming, Chengdu or Chongqing first. Because it is very convenient to go from Chengdu to Lijiang or from Chongqing to Lijiang; Bian Xiao thinks it is the best choice to go to Lijiang from Kunming. During your stay in Kunming, you can not only enjoy the scenery of Kunming, but also play along the route of Lijiang in Dali. From Kunming to Lijiang, you can enjoy many scenery that others can't see, because on the road.
As for the price of air tickets, it depends on your travel time, and the discounts are different at different time periods. It is suggested to avoid traveling in the tourist season. The best discount is to check online and book air tickets half a month in advance.

Accommodation cost estimation Lijiang accommodation is mainly divided into two styles: Lijiang Inn and Lijiang Hotel.
No matter which style you choose, the price ranges from tens of dollars to thousands of dollars for high-end luxury accommodation.
Lijiang Inn is divided into Old Town of Lijiang Inn and Shuhe Inn. Basically, all Lijiang inns have a yard, big or small, and a comfortable public area for guests to bask in the sun and stare blankly.
The starting prices of Old Town of Lijiang Inn and Shuhe Inn are mostly between 150-220 yuan. They are economical and applicable, with complete infrastructure and clean rooms, which can meet the accommodation needs of ordinary tourists.
After that, it will be roughly divided into two price points: 250-500 yuan and 500 yuan. The higher the house price, the higher the room atmosphere and hardware facilities, and the more thoughtful service.
Compared with Lijiang Inn, Lijiang Hotel may have a slight advantage in price, because Lijiang Hotel will have some family hotels within 100 yuan, all of which are well done, with complete infrastructure and good sanitary conditions, which can meet the basic accommodation needs. There is also 100-300 yuan Express Business Hotel, which has more public leisure areas than small family hotels, and there are restaurants in the hotel, with good service. It can be regarded as a cost-effective choice.
Of course, Lijiang hotels also have high-priced options. In addition to some star-rated hotels with high comfort, there will be many luxury hotels with more than five stars, and entertainment facilities such as spa, indoor swimming and golf are readily available. You can relax and enjoy the journey. However, the price is also beautiful ~ it depends on everyone's travel budget!
Food cost estimation Lijiang cuisine, most of which need to walk the streets to find. Besides the famous ones, there are actually many delicious foods. Bian Xiao always thinks that the chicken rice noodles in Lijiang River are simply delicious ~
The consumption of Lijiang food is not high, at least compared with many tourist cities, it is cheap. Try to avoid eating in Old Town of Lijiang or Shuhe Ancient Town, which will save you a lot of money. However, Lijiang snacks are mostly distributed in the ancient town, which is suitable for looking for street food and enjoying the unique Lijiang scenery while visiting the ancient city.
Estimate the dietary expenses according to the daily dietary requirements;
For breakfast, the per capita consumption is 5- 10 yuan, which is basically a bowl of rice noodles, noodles, or soybean milk fritters and steamed bread, or buy a hot Lijiang Baba from Naxi grandma, which is enough to fill the stomach.
For lunch and dinner, if you just choose to eat simple fried rice and rice noodles, the per capita consumption can be controlled within 10 yuan; If you eat some home-cooked dishes, a few dishes and one soup, the per capita consumption should be 15-40 yuan; If you eat some praised Lijiang food, the per capita consumption will be 30-80 yuan (for example, pork ribs hot pot 30-50 yuan/person, salmon 50-80 yuan/person, black goat hot pot 40-60 yuan/person, potato chicken 30-40 yuan/person).
Nightingale, the nightingale here in Lijiang is mainly barbecue, and basically all the food you can think of can be roasted very delicious. Make an appointment with three or five friends and have a drink. The atmosphere is perfect. I think this is a beautiful landscape of Lijiang cuisine. The price is not high, and the per capita consumption is 30-60 yuan.

The cost of entertainment is estimated. When traveling to Lijiang, the main entertainment items for tourists should only be bars.
The bars in Lijiang are mainly distributed in a bar street. Most of the bars in Bar Street are large-scale and lively, and most of them will have entertainment programs such as song and dance performances, so the consumption will be higher. Beer 100-200 yuan/beer can only appear when Lijiang Bar holds activities in the off-season. Many times, in Lijiang bars, the price of ordinary beer is 300-500 yuan/dozen; During the tourist season, especially during the "Eleventh" Golden Week, the price of drinks in Lijiang Bar will nearly double.
But now there are many bars, big and small, in many alleys of Old Town of Lijiang. Most of these Lijiang bars in hutongs have resident singers, who play and sing around the fire with tourists at any time, which is very atmospheric; Because these bars are not on the main road, the consumption is not that high. Generally speaking, the price of ordinary beer in these bars in Old Town of Lijiang is 200-300 yuan/dozen. During the peak season, the price adjustment of these bars in Lijiang will not be too exaggerated.
Shopping cost estimation Tourism shopping is the worst cost estimation method. After all, everyone likes different things and has different economic strength.
Specialty recommendation 1, Lijiang specialty shawl
This is probably the best-selling tourist commodity in Old Town of Lijiang. Tourists all over the street, wrapped in shawls, all kinds of colors, all kinds of photos. The price of shawl ranges from 10 to 100 yuan, which mainly depends on the material of shawl and your bargaining power.
2. Lijiang specialty spirulina
Chenghai in Yongsheng, Lijiang City is said to be a good producing area of spirulina. The price of spirulina in Lijiang is more than 200 a bottle (500 grams), which is relatively stable and will not kill tourists, so the counter-offer effect is not obvious.
3. Lijiang specialty Pu 'er tea
The price of Pu 'er tea is always different. Personally, I think 100-300 yuan's tea cakes are enough. This kind of tea is fragrant and can last for about 3 years, whether you drink it yourself, give it away or collect it. Of course, there are many more expensive and cheaper. I suggest you sit down and taste slowly, listen to the store tell you the difference, and then buy wisely.
4. Lijiang specialty silverware
Most silverware in tourist cities is sold by hand, and it is not necessarily pure silver. If you want security, it is recommended to go to a regular store to buy it. Lijiang silverware price 12 yuan/gram, the bargaining price may be lower ~
5. Lijiang specialty jade
The price of jadeite is the real disparity. Bian Xiao suggested that people who don't understand jade should not buy it alone. Generally, you won't buy fake goods, but there will be cases of shoddy goods. The price of jadeite varies from several hundred to several hundred thousand, depending on everyone's different purchasing power.
6. Lijiang specialty camel bell
Camel bell is the kind seen in the TV series "One Meter of Sunshine", and the price is between 15- 100 yuan, mainly depending on the material. The simple wooden sign engraved with Dongba language is relatively cheap, 15-35 yuan, but it has Lijiang characteristics and is very suitable for taking home as a souvenir; What is more expensive is that the metal material accounts for a large proportion, and the sound is crisp, which is suitable for personal use or collection.
If you need to travel to Lijiang recently and are making your own travel plan, you'd better get a simple reference from the information in Bian Xiao. I hope you can make a good travel plan!
