Lijiang Old Town
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the old town charms with Sifang Street, the Great Water Wheels and winding lanes. At night, lanterns and flowing water create a romantic mood.
Jade Dragon Snow Mountain
The mountain is snow-capped year-round; take the big cable car up to Glacier Park. Below, Blue Moon Valley glows emerald like a fairyland and is a popular photo spot.
Towns and around
Shuhe Old Town is quieter than Dayan; Lashi Lake offers horse-riding and boating; Tiger Leaping Gorge is famed for its dramatic cliffs, with further trips on to Shangri-La.
