Lijiang is such a fairy tale town at the foot of the snow-capped mountains
How can a place be so wonderful.
The bizarre steampunk wilderness
Really ignites the childlike wonder in everyone.
Playing here for an entire afternoon
Really doesn't get boring at all.
When the weather is good, looking at the snow mountains here feels even more like entering a dreamer's world.
ps. Make sure to go when the weather is good!

Lijiang Off-the-Beaten-Path Guide|A Real-Life Fairy Tale Home, The Wilderness Nation
|A Real-Life Fairy Tale Home, The Wilderness Nation.
Former independent musicians Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao used to enjoy listening
This time going to Lijiang, I didn't expect to meet Teacher Qiao Xiao Dao - Da Qiao
He turned a 40,000 square meter wasteland in Lijiang
Into over 100 super fairy tale-like dreamy houses and items
Each piece of art is detached from reality but fulfills the dreams of both big and small children
: Art pieces of The Wilderness Nation
During my week in Lijiang, I went there twice, it's really too dreamy and too photogenic!
All the big and small art pieces inside are not just art pieces, every car can be driven
Every mini house you enter has a set
Sitting by the window to rest, read a book is no problem
There are also simple bars, toilets, beds, air conditioning, etc. It's a place for taking photos and checking in, as well as a real-life home for children of all ages. Those houses under 10 square meters can be built in a day, and many art pieces have been sold to variety shows or movies, etc.
The beachcombing car from the sixth season of 'The Life We Long For' is one of his works
: Howl's Moving Castle
This is my favorite place in The Wilderness Nation, inside is a mini fairy tale kingdom, it seems very mini from a high place, but when a real person stands there
It's quite small, super photogenic
: Fairy Tale Treehouse
As soon as you enter, you can see this treehouse, you can sit on top and there's also a coffee shop, super cute
It also looks very nice when the lights are on at night, I saw the pictures online, usually, it's not open at night
: Others
There are small cars and big trucks with various designs everywhere
The supply area is also a great place to take photos right at the entrance
🎈: Lijiang Wilderness Nation (Close to Baisha Old Town, about 10 kilometers from Lijiang Old Town)
🎫: Adult ticket 50 yuan
SHELBY MCLAUGHLIN
The happiest place in Lijiang is the Wilderness Nation
🥳 I think everyone who likes Teacher Miyazaki's work has a 'Moving Castle' 🏰 in their heart,
In the teacher's fairy tale world, love and courage must be obtained through an adventure, and the Wilderness Nation seems like the adventurous different world I dreamed of as a child,
In the reeds 🌾 taller than oneself, you can vaguely see houses of strange shapes, children with weird faces imitating scarecrows, a huge orange cat 🐱 sleeping, vehicles made of discarded materials, a pig-headed 🐷 nun with full makeup, the more you explore, the more surprises you find~
📍Wilderness Nation
⏰Business hours: 9:00am-19:00pm
🎫Tickets required, free for the elderly over 70 and children under 90cm 🚗Transportation: Located between Shuhe Ancient Town and Baisha Ancient Town, it is convenient to ride a shared bicycle, take bus No. 6, or take a taxi
➡️The coffee shop at the entrance sells water, 2 yuan per bottle without price gouging, rest assured to buy. If you want to take photos or videos with fewer people and look good, choose weekdays in the morning or 5 pm to avoid weekends. The weather is very important! And I think the wild grass this season looks better than the green grass in summer
🫣After playing carefully, these whimsical ideas are a gentle way to escape the real world, with a trouble box kissed by fairies, an autism room accompanied by rabbits 🐰, a department store cart without homework, a proprietor who thinks in the restroom, just like a line of dialogue from my favorite Howl's Moving Castle:
'Howl, how many names do you actually have?' 'Just enough to live freely.'
This world is worth living in, experiencing, let's be free and happy people together~

Lijiang, the only place worth the price of admission for me
Wilderness Nation🎈
⌚️Time: 9:00-19:00
🎫Ticket: 50r per person, children under 120cm free
⚠️Tips: Since Lijiang stretches from north to south including the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, Baisha Ancient Town, Shuhe Ancient Town (right next to Wilderness Nation), and Lijiang Ancient Town, those with good stamina can play all the way from north to south in one day. I set out at seven or eight in the morning without going to Shuhe and finished my trip around five in the afternoon.
I love it so much! The place in Lijiang I least want to leave. Once you get there, you'll understand why Wilderness Nation was built in Lijiang. The beautiful big clouds of Lijiang are also part of this paradise, and looking up at all this feels like a scene from a Hayao Miyazaki anime...
After entering, you can see that the furniture inside is also very cute (hurry up and invite your friends to play house inside🤲🏻!!!)
The park is not crowded at all, I played all afternoon, jumping up and down on the dirt mounds and treehouses, feeling like a child again, except for constantly bumping my head on various door frames... Some of the small lofts I couldn't even squeeze into They might be designed for children, I really wish I could learn a shrinking spell right away!
DALLAS LYNCH
Yunnan Lijiang's Hidden Treasure Fairy Tale Paradise -- The Kingdom of Wilderness
Ticket Price: 50 RMB/adult (children free)
There are small ride-on cars available, but there is an additional charge
Business Hours: 9:00 AM - 7:00 PM
Address as per location
Everyone has a different definition of childlike fun.
In this park, I feel an inexplicable joy.
Every perspective in the park
is like stepping into Grandpa Miyazaki's manga world.
It's as if 'Howl's Moving Castle' really exists.
However, if you're looking to play mechanical games
or seek thrills, I sincerely advise you not to come.
Otherwise, you'll feel it's a wild land overgrown with weeds.
This place is suitable for those with a childlike heart, who like to take photos
and enjoy feeling the details, for both big kids and little kids.
It's also a great place for family outings.
The biggest advantage of the castle design in this park, compared to other parks, is that entering it feels like an immersive step into a manga world.
You can enter most of the houses
and feel like a little princess in the castle.
When we went in, it was after 3 PM, and the sunlight was too intense,
so we hid in a house and rested for almost an hour.
Although there were only chairs and tables inside
and the real-time pendulum clock didn't stop,
it still 'tick-tocked' away, indicating the passage of time.
But at that moment, the birdsong outside the little treehouse and the calmness of nature
made our mood stretch and free, as if we were all staying in the fairy tale time.
The Kingdom of Wilderness, a treasure fairy tale paradise hidden in Lijiang.

The only fairy-tale world in Lijiang that's worth the price of admission for me!!
This is a real-life version of 'Howl's Moving Castle' created by artist Qiao Xiaodao for his daughter using discarded materials.
Over 20 whimsical houses filled with childlike innocence and steampunk vibes,
and bizarre animal sculptures~
It's like stepping into a fairy-tale world!!
-
This place is a playground for kids
and a happy base for adults who are young at heart!!
Spending an afternoon in a little house, sipping coffee, daydreaming, and taking photos is truly possible~
Even after 3 hours of photography, it doesn't feel tiresome!! It's also a shooting location that Ouyang Nana has visited – a real hidden gem in Lijiang!!
-
If you also like niche art,
then bring your kids or invite your best girlfriends to come to the Wilderness Nation and experience the beauty of a fairy-tale world~
Adult tickets are 50, and kids enter for free, definitely worth a visit!! !

Overage children are going wild in the Dreamland under the snowy mountain!
Coming to Lijiang, you can't miss the Wilderness Nation
Bizarre yet adorable
The organizer, beneath the snowy mountain, has created
a dream of enduring childlike wonder
Admission: 50rmb

Lijiang | Never lose to Jiuzhaigou relaxed version of the child walking strategy please check
🌳I dare to put Yunnan Lijiang and Jiuzhaigou together
It's enough to prove the shock Lijiang brought to me
Lijiang very rarely combines natural scenery➕walking children➕ancient town
Together🥰
There are wild fun, childlike fun and food
If you bring your child to Lijiang in February and March
Please check this relaxed version of the child walking strategy that does not rush to popular attractions
☑️Lashi Lake Wetland Park Free
Drive around here slowly
You can see herds of cattle and horses on the plank road
Although the grass in early spring has withered
But the blue sky➕wetland➕migratory birds➕cattle and horses are really beautiful
The cold and vast scenes in the air
Adults and children are intoxicated
☑️Tea Horse Ancient Road Horse Riding
Buy tickets at Meiquan Ecological Tourism Scenic Area for 200💰
This is a place to ride horses in the forest➕see the scenery
The whole journey is more than 1 hour
The feeling of sufficient oxygen in the entire scenic area😄
Lake water, forest, log cabin, distant mountains
Really have the feeling of Jiuzhaigou
The rich vegetation in the forest is worth exploring
You can also pick mushrooms in summer
☑️Migratory Bird Bay
There are seagulls until the end of February
There are also many birds in other seasons
There are also flower seas and reeds
Among them, the sky is high and the grass is wide
Children go crazy
Adults are a lot of shots🥰
Very comfortable
☑️Wilderness Country❗️50💰
Those with children must go
From the beginning of the door, adults and children are shocked
Large and small tree houses and variously shaped RVs
Simply moved the animation world into reality
☑️Lijiang Yuhu Village
This is a village at the foot of Yulong Snow Mountain
Stone-built houses
And all kinds of specialty shops
We walk around and ride horses to Longnu Lake
Overall it is relatively relaxed
If the weather is good at Longnu Lake, you can see Yulong Snow Mountain
The point here is whether to take a sightseeing car (30💰)
And always being asked by villagers if they want to ride a horse
Actually walking all the way is fine
About 25 minutes
But if you bring a child, I can buy all the transportation...
All the strength is left in the key place😂
Riding a horse for more than half an hour for more than 100 I think it is also cost-effective
After all, riding a horse with a child in the city is 50💰 for five minutes🥲
Just don't need to buy gloves
📝This strategy is because I have to bring a 3-year-old baby
After considering physical strength, I still give up
One is Yulong Snow Mountain
Because I'm afraid of children's high anti, there are many people in the peak season
And children are not interested in pure natural landscapes
So I want to wait for her to come again when she grows up
Another is Lugu Lake
The journey is too far, and there are eighteen bends on the mountain road
It will be more tiring to go once
If you go by yourself, I still highly recommend it
It's really beautiful, I was shocked for a long time when I went for the first time
There is a difference in size from the several lakes I mentioned above
I can't write it down, see you in the comment area❗️

Detailed check-in guide for the Wilderness Country under the Lijiang Snow Mountain
The most surprising spot of this trip to Lijiang
What the naked eye sees is far more interesting than the photos!
All kinds of 🥳 whimsical ideas, as if stepping into the fairy tale world of Hayao Miyazaki
Jumping up and down in the tree house, shuttling through the grass, some moments on the swing, I seem to have returned to the distant childhood 555

AVERY SAUNDERS
The fairy tale kingdom under the Lijiang Snow Mountain! Whose utopia is knocking on the door
The Wilderness Country is located in the ancient city area of Lijiang City. It is a creative and very environmentally friendly place created by folk singer Qiao Xiaodao using discarded old tires, fan blades, and iron drums. Inside, there are all kinds of strange cars, houses, airplanes, slides, etc. Each scene under the reachable blue sky and white clouds in Lijiang is particularly dreamy, as if falling into the fairy tale world of Hayao Miyazaki. There are dozens of small houses with different styles in the Wilderness Country, such as the Samurai Wild Grass Collection, Nomadic Wanderers, Leaky Art Museum, Tree House Cafe, Yunzhu Restaurant, etc. Every shot is beautiful!
The plateau clouds are low, the sun is hot, but it does not prevent us from having fun in this small country of Teacher Qiao. It is definitely a cool playground for real and fake kids!

Guide to playing in the Wilderness Country
This is an ideal country full of fun for children, filled with endless fantasies! There are many different small houses and various weirdly shaped cars inside. Each item is made by musician Teacher Joe Xiaodao using discarded old items. Although it is in a wasteland, it is full of joyful vitality.

Walking into the 'Wilderness Country' gives a feeling of having a wide-open mind, just like some of the strange ideas I had when I was a child, they actually become reality here.
·
Watching the cute children playing here, I really envy them! They can have unlimited fun in the whimsical kingdom, enriching their imagination.
