Old town street near hotel, Lijiang
Oct 23, LijiangJust made the plane out of Chengdu this morning, and arrived on time in Lijiang to meet our guide Janice, who is fantastic! Strolled around a beautiful garden, the Black Dragon Pool, where you can get the best view of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain when it is out of the clouds. A bride and groom to be were having their wedding photos taken. Unfortunately, it was drizzly this afternoon, but cleared later. We had lunch and wandered the old town, watching some Naxi women in costume dancing in the square. Our hotel, which is very picturesque, is located in the old town, a car-free zone. Went to tea tasting to soothe tired hips, knees, and feet before dinner. Attended an authentic Naxi concert tonight, but doubt that anyone will be rushing out to buy the CD.
