World Heritage ancient town of Lijiang

One of the most popular places in Yunnan is the Lijiang Old Town. This town is immense, surrounded by mountains, clustered by ethnic shops, music exhibitions, ancient art, temples, discotheques, and almost anything you can imagine. Every shop and landmark is special in its own way, so different from the next one. This town is chaotically beautiful. If you are going to visit, be sure you have enough charge in your phone, your bags are not so heavy and you have good hiking shoes. For once, unless you are a local, this tiny streets and similar architecture of shops and roads will get you lost. Not joking, this town is a nice labyrinth to get lost, as you have so much to enjoy here. This includes many musical or dance performances out of nowhere you can find in any corner. Keep in mind there are no bikes, cars or bicycles allowed inside. Also, Lijiang is famous for its silver and different minorities ethnic fabric you will find in shops. There are few temples and scenic spots that will take your breath away. Pun intended. Be aware you will indeed lose your breath going up and down, and altitude can make some people sick, yet you can find many stores selling oxygen. 📍Intersection, Shuilu Road, Hechang, Minzhu Road, Dayan Residential District, Gucheng #oldtown #oldcity #ancienttown #urbanexplorer #maydaytrip #happylaborday #lijiang #lijiangoldtown #lijiangancienttown #oldarchitecture #ancientlandmark #temple #mountain #hiking #lijiangtravel #yunnan #lijiang #yunnantravel #yunnanethnicvilliage #worldheritage #heritage #patrimonio #architecturalphotos #scenicspotphotoguide #scenicspotguide #nofilters #artexhibit #shopping #ethnicstyle
