Lijiang trip?
Plan Your TripI've stayed in Lijiangmany times over the years. Here are my recommendations for every budget.
Lijiang packs its history into every neighbourhood. The main areas to consider are Shuhe Ancient Town and Lijiang Old Town. Whether you prefer a modern hotel or a traditional courtyard guesthouse, the right location makes all the difference.
Luxury resort with individual Tibetan-style villas, each with a private garden and views of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.
A beautifully restored Naxi courtyard guesthouse in the heart of the old town.
Relaxed hostel with a garden courtyard in the quieter Shuhe area.
