【Lijiang·Wenhai】Such a niche and magnificent place, come early while it's still less crowded

⛰️Lijiang·Wenhai Village 📍Yulong Naxi Autonomous County, Lijiang City, Yunnan Province 🎫Free admission 🚗Parking available · 🌈Attraction features: -Surrounded by mountains, there is a pristine lake in the middle of a vast grassland, and next to the lake is a small village, which is Wenhai Village. -This is one of the key points on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, where caravans used to stop to rest and feed their horses. · 🕐️Opening hours: -Currently, no admission fee is charged, and the scenic area is open all day. -The entire area around the lake is accessible, you can explore anywhere, not necessarily a fixed spot. · 🚗Transportation tips: -About a 50-minute drive from Shuhe and Baisha ancient towns. -Self-driving is recommended as there are no direct public transport options. -The road winds around the mountains, and the mountain roads are quite winding and steep, so be cautious. · 💗Other tips: -Wenhai is at a higher altitude than Lijiang, offering a beautiful view overlooking Lijiang. -Due to the high altitude, you may experience noticeable ear discomfort and a significant drop in temperature. -The nearby facilities are not yet fully developed, with only a few small stalls offering food, so it's advisable to bring some snacks. -There are some homestays nearby, but the accommodation conditions are not very developed. It's recommended to stay in the ancient towns of Baisha or Shuhe at the foot of the mountain. -The environment is quite natural, with a lot of mule and horse manure on the grass, so wear light and comfortable shoes.
