Strolling in the ancient city of Lijiang

I have been in Lijiang for three days, and I have only toured the ancient city of Lijiang in three days. I have sorted out this nanny-level tour guide, please keep it👇 🏕️Attraction introduction: The ancient city of Lijiang, also known as the "Dayan Ancient City", has a history of 800 years, a 5A-level scenic spot, and an important channel for the ancient "Tea Horse Road" and "Southern Silk Road". "Muguilou, stone road, oil-paper umbrella, ancient rhyme Jiangnan" is the best description of the ancient city. This is a must-visit place for every tourist who comes to Lijiang~ 🎫Ticket: Free 🕰️Opening hours: 24 hours 📎Suggestion: The ancient city has two styles during the day and night. It is recommended to come around three or four in the afternoon, so that the ultraviolet rays are not so strong, and you can feel the day and stroll to the night to experience a different style~ ✨About playing 🚦Route: South Gate of Lijiang Ancient City➡July 1st Street➡Zhenxing Street➡Dashi Bridge➡Lion Mountain➡Xianwen Lane➡Sifang Street➡Xinhua Street➡Dayan Flower Lane➡Eye of Lijiang Viewing Platform➡North Gate Big Waterwheel 💕Introduction to different streets and attractions 1⃣️July 1st Street: A concentrated area of food and folk bars, and also the necessary way to go to Mufu and Zhongyi Market 2⃣️Zhenxing Street: The wooden houses on both sides of the road are full of lanterns 3⃣️Dashi Bridge: A stone arch bridge, not big, but the scenery is very beautiful, suitable for taking pictures.

Outside the ancient city: quiet Inside the ancient city: rich nightlife, but noisy 🧷Note: Because there are stone roads in the ancient city, it is more tiring, it is recommended to wear sports shoes, it is more difficult to pull a suitcase on the stone road, you can contact the merchant in advance to help pull the suitcase. ✨About eating: The ancient city has a rich diet, Grandma's ribs; Spoon rice noodles; Food and wine, wild mushroom ribs, Dianxi Prince, flower cake... There are also various snacks, anyway, many people check in, it is worth a try~ ✨About going: ✅Bus ✅Self-driving ✅Shared bicycle/electric car ‼️Precautions: 1⃣️Pay attention to the temperature change in the morning and evening 2⃣️Pay attention to sun protection 3⃣️It is recommended to wear comfortable shoes 4⃣️There are many small roads in the ancient city, and the attractions are scattered, so make sure to make a strategy!
