Another place in China for wonderful vacation is Lijiang - city located in the northwest of Yunnan province.
Lijiang Ancient Town is famous for its traditional ethnic culture and customs, inimitable buildings and the stunning natural views. The old town, the old buildings, the cobbled narrow pedestrian streets and small waterways, make Lijiang a beautiful and relaxing place.
With numerous places to eat, shop and relax, it draws huge numbers of Chinese tourists. Yet despite this, you can still walk just a street or two away from the main attractions and still find a peace and special atmosphere.
Near the city you can see the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain - a holy mountain for the local Naxi people. It consists of 13 peaks covered with perpetual snow and extends for 15 kilometers.
Around the city you can also find some nice hiking routes.
