6. Old Town of Lijiang
Old Town of Lijiang is known as the most intact ancient town of ethnic minorities in China, and in a narrow sense, it refers to Dayan Ancient Town, the main part of Old Town of Lijiang. Lijiang Dayan Ancient City has famous small scenic spots such as Sifang Street, Dashiqiao, Bar Street, Mufu, etc. There are the most concentrated inns and tourist souvenirs with the most national characteristics in China. It is a must-see for Lijiang tourism.
It is precisely because Old Town of Lijiang is too well-known, when it comes to the tourist season such as the Golden Week, the streets and alleys are crowded with people, and the merchants are too expensive to meet them, completely losing the leisurely characteristics of Lijiang tourism. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to avoid the tourist season as much as possible, especially the Golden Week to travel to Lijiang.

Lugu Lake
Lugu Lake is famous for Mosuo's folk custom of getting married, the last matriarchal society, and the original secluded paradise-like lakes and mountains.

Lugu Lake's wedding custom tends to be over-publicized and distorted, which destroys the simplicity of Lugu Lake to some extent.

Laojun Mountain is known as the ancestor of many mountains in Yunnan. According to legend, Taishang Laojun once made an alchemy here, hence the name.
