Discover a pristine land in Lijiang, Yunnan!

If you want to find a place in Lijiang that is not crowded but has beautiful scenery and is good for taking photos, I recommend you come to Wenhai. . Wenhai is not a sea, but a clear lake, which evolved from an ancient glacial lake. The locals call the lakes in high-altitude areas "haizi," which is romantic and wonderful. . The locals say that Wenhai has only one village and one lake, and there is nothing to see, but this is not the case. . Located on the ridge of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, Wenhai has different scenery with the change of seasons. 🌷 Wenhai in spring is a sea of flowers. 🌱 Wenhai in summer is a grassland. 🏔️ In autumn and winter, migratory birds perch, and snow covers the grassland. The Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is reflected on the lake, quiet and like a fairyland. . Unfortunately, when we went there, it was the rainy season, and we didn't see the snow-capped mountains. We only saw the misty mountains in the distance and the calm lake, as if we were in Iceland. When we turned to look into the distance, it was like Switzerland. . 🚗 How to get there: 1⃣️ Self-driving/chartered car/taxi: Navigate to Wenhai Village. 2⃣️ Hiking: Take bus No. 6 to Baisha Ancient Town, and hike for 3–4 hours to get there. . 🏷️ Tips: 1⃣️ Wenhai is an undeveloped scenic spot, so there is no need for tickets, but you should also pay attention to safety. 2⃣️ Navigate to Wenhai Village, and you will see a vast grassland with herds of cattle 🐮 and horses 🐎. We thought there were many people, so we drove along the mountain road to the other side of the lake, which is the quiet place in the picture. 3⃣️ The altitude here is above 3,000 meters. Friends who are not used to the plateau environment should remember to bring oxygen. 4⃣️ Wenhai is very close to Baisha Ancient Town, so you can arrange to visit them on the same day. 5⃣️ There are few people and a vast area, which is also suitable for camping ⛺️. . Wenhai is like a paradise. Everyone goes to Lashi Lake, but I think it's better to come to Wenhai. . I want to share with you the wind I felt in Wenhai.
