The experience version of Lijiang's self-help travel guide appears. Many people who like to travel will know that Lijiang is one of the most famous ancient towns in China, with a thousand-year-old cultural heritage, well-preserved buildings and fascinating geomantic feelings. The girls here are also the targets of everyone's pursuit.
Lijiang is a city that most people know. Some people have been to Lijiang and others are on their way to Lijiang. Someone hurried by with the group, stayed in Lijiang for a day and a half, and then left the impression that Lijiang was crowded and expensive. Some people go to the beautiful food and literary atmosphere, leaving countless travel photos and feelings while walking and playing; Others came to Lijiang and stayed, blending into Lijiang's life.
I am one of those people who stayed in Lijiang. I have been running an inn in Lijiang for two years. The two years have not changed me anything, but made me love Lijiang more. I meet different travelers every day, tell them stories about Lijiang, or listen to their stories about travel.
Most people like to travel independently, which makes it easier to play. So I have compiled a guide to travel freely in Lijiang, including Lijiang's climate, traffic, scenic spots, food, accommodation, common problems, and so on, hoping to help friends who come to Lijiang to play. Let's start the formal content below.
