National Geographic didn't deceive me; the ancient town of Yunnan was severely underrated

I went to Lijiang 3 times this year Among a number of ancient towns, I really love Baisha the most Simple folk houses, alleys by the canals Today's Baisha still retains the simplicity of 20 years ago The streets are lined with many interesting little shops Sitting in a cafe in the ancient town, looking at the snow-capped mountains from afar I feel like I have already planned my retirement life ⭐️【Top 5 Must-Visit Shops in Baisha Ancient Town】 1️⃣7 sea bar The top coffee shop in Baisha Ancient Town, the second-floor terrace allows you to take photos of the Baisha Ancient Town sign and the snow mountains in the same frame, and if you go early in the morning, you basically don't have to queue 2️⃣Pomegranate Courtyard The third-floor terrace also offers a 180-degree view of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and it's too comfortable to bask in the sun at noon 3️⃣Steamed Bun Poet Left hand steamed bun, right hand poetry, how many people came to Baisha specifically for this flower steamed bun 4️⃣Kebuke Song Ran twice and finally got to eat the croissants made by the Buddhist boss, the flaky pastry of the croissant is very well done! Recommend pistachio and strawberry flavors 5️⃣Lucky The beef pizza and burgers have a bit of a Sino-Western fusion feel～ There are also beef jerky, beef skewers, and cheese sticks which are all good 🏡Accommodation Strategy Now it's the off-season for travel in Yunnan, and you can stay in a nice guesthouse in the ancient town for less than a hundred yuan. Because of the large temperature difference between day and night, be sure to ask if the room has air conditioning before booking a homestay! Otherwise, like me, you'll be woken up several times in the night by the cold 📝Lijiang 3 Days 2 Nights Travel Itinerary 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝟏: Arrive in Lijiang➠Lijiang Ancient Town 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝟐: Jade Dragon Snow Mountain Glacier Park➠Blue Moon Valley➠Spruce Plateau➠Baisha Ancient Town 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝟑: Baisha Ancient Town➠Return trip
