2025 Ninglang Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

Stayed at Indigo Lugu Lake Hotel and chose to dine at the hotel's neighborhood restaurant. The moment I stepped into the restaurant, I was captivated by the design style. The decor showcases modern artistic techniques, yet cleverly integrates Chinese and Yunnan-Burmese cultural elements. It's very beautiful! The dishes mainly feature Yunnan-Burmese flavors, such as lamb chops, char siu, pork belly, thick soup, pot soup, and rice noodles. The taste was decent, and the three of us had a satisfying meal. Yunnan-Burmese cuisine is characterized by its freshness, light fragrance, moderate sourness and spiciness, and emphasis on the original taste and flavor. The restaurant did a good job in this regard, showcasing the distinctive features of the ethnic minority cuisine.

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 During this trip to Lijiang, we went to Lugu Lake and stayed for one night just to stay at the Hotel Indigo Lugu Lake, which was newly opened last year. The novel and fashionable modern architecture blends with the natural landscape, and it is surrounded by mountains and water, with picturesque scenery. Hotel Indigo excels in incorporating local characteristics into its design. The Mosuo decorative ornaments of Lugu Lake in the lobby are quite distinctive, giving the novel and modern hotel a more cultural and artistic atmosphere. In particular, there is a lake in front, surrounded by covered bridges on the side, and the snow-capped mountains in the back, which is quite beautiful. The room we stayed in was a top-level room, which was 40 square meters in size. It had brightly colored carpets and Mosuo cultural bedside murals. It was comfortable and bright, and the stay was excellent, especially the picturesque scenery outside the window. You can enjoy the beautiful scenery by staying in the room. The room rate including breakfast on weekdays is NT$6,000. I used points to redeem it during a special promotion and was able to book it for around NT$4,000, which is a great deal! #YunnanTravel #Lugu Lake #Lijiang Ancient Town #Yulong Snow Mountain #indigo

#1月好去地方2025 A scenic spot that must be included in the Lijiang, Yunnan tourism is one of the most beautiful freshwater lakes in China. It is famous for its clear water and magnificent natural scenery and is known as the "Pearl of the Plateau". The weather was great when we visited. The sky was blue without a single cloud, which combined perfectly with Lugu Lake, presenting a turquoise scenery of the lake and sky, with the mountains and forests and water birds and boats as the backdrop. It was such a quiet and peaceful landscape painting with an indescribable otherworldly beauty. The local aborigines of Lugu Lake are the Mosuo people, who have a unique matriarchal society and bonfire party customs that you can experience. There are several attractions worth visiting in the scenic area, such as the grass sea with dense reeds and the three Penglai Islands in the lake: Liwubi Island, Shewai Island, and Lige Island. The best way to tour the lake is by boat. Taking the Mosuo people's traditional means of transportation, the canoe, also known as the pig trough boat, and admiring the beautiful scenery of the lake and mountains is a refreshing experience. #YunnanTravel #Lugu Lake

During my trip to Yunnan, I stayed at the picturesque LuGuhu Anxia Mountain Resort Hotel, located next to Xiaoyuba in Daluoshui Village. The hotel boasts a pure white aesthetic reminiscent of Santorini, Greece, making it perfect for taking stunning photos from any angle. Every room offers a lake view, which is absolutely breathtaking! The rooms at LuGuhu Anxia Mountain Resort Hotel are spacious and beautiful, with each lake view room covering 40 square meters. The stay includes a double breakfast, afternoon tea, a welcome gift, and transportation services. The rooms are equipped with a bathtub and sofa, and the interior decor is tasteful. The mesmerizing blue lake view outside the window makes the stay incredibly comfortable. A night's stay costs 3000 TWD, which is quite reasonable considering the value. Enjoying afternoon tea on the terrace with white curtains fluttering in the breeze creates a perfect island vacation atmosphere. Highly recommended.

#January Good Places 2025 Yunnan and Sichuan are separated by Lake Ligu, with an altitude of 2690 meters. The body and mind are calm and stable, and you can enjoy the scenery of the lake and mountains in a leisurely manner. The view is beautiful and the air is fresh. It used to be possible to sit on a hand-rowed pork chop boat, but it has now been improved to resemble a large canoe and can seat a dozen people. Propelled by the boatman alone 10 people, awesome! I can pay a tip to help the boatman. When we got to the center of the lake, the water looked very clear and looked all the way. The boatman even asked us to get some water in a bottle for drinking.

A place I wanted to go 11 years ago. We drove from Lijiang to Lijiang yesterday in the rain and fog. Fortunately, the wind blew today and the clouds dispersed. There are still many people at Lugu Lake in November, and it is noisy occasionally, but looking at the lake there is an incomparable tranquility. After half a circle around the lake, the sky cleared up. I took the cable car to the Gemu Goddess Mountain with a nervous and awe-inspiring mood (because I was alone and afraid of falling). I looked at Lugu Lake in the distance. Okay, this trip was worth it and I can go home🤣 #Lugu Lake #100 Ways to Travel #Charter #Lake

#kayak #100waysoftravel #yunnan #lugulake #luguhu #travelchina One of the must-do activities at Lugu Lake is to kayak or take a traditional boat tour. Nestled on the border of Yunnan and Sichuan provinces, Lugu Lake is renowned for its crystal-clear waters, breathtaking mountainous backdrop, and cultural significance as the home of the Mosuo people, a minor ethnic group. The boats used on the lake are called pig trough boats, named for their resemblance to long pig troughs. These sturdy vessels are carved from openwork logs with sharpened ends, a unique tradition of the Mosuo people. While paddling in one of these boats can be challenging due to the heavy wooden paddles, the serene atmosphere of the lake makes the effort worthwhile. We visited in April and, unfortunately, missed the blooming season for 水性杨花 (aquatic poplar flowers), a special floating plant that graces the lake’s surface during the right time of year. Despite that, we enjoyed leisurely paddling across the tranquil water, taking in the picturesque views of the surrounding landscape. As the lake is quite expansive, we grew tired, and eventually, the boat master took over, guiding us back to shore. The entire experience was unforgettable, immersing us in the peaceful beauty of Lugu Lake and the Mosuo culture.

During this journey I took the train from Shanghai to Kunming Station in Yunnan The 36-hour sleeper bed is an interesting experience, and I made many interesting friends during this journey You can also take a direct flight to Lijiang, Yunnan, which is more convenient You can choose to take a direct bus from Kunming to Ligu Lake, but it takes about 20 hours You can also head to Lijiang and then transfer to Ligu Lake When entering the park, the bus will stop at the whistle to ask you to get off and buy park tickets Then you will get a daughter country passport, which I think is of great commemorative value It is recommended that you can complete the cycle around the lake in two or three days The scenery along the way is very spectacular, and it is cold when visiting in April, four seasons a day The onion style of wearing is recommended for the clothing section - Every minute and every second I walked in Lake Ligu will be the words of my life forever Ride your bike through the loop around the lake, scorching sun, harsh nights, wonderland-like views Gemu Mountain, the goddess peak of the Momo tribe, is my indicator along the way I started from here and used it as a spiritual fortification along the way Finally, I returned to the arms of the goddess, and the emotion of the moment was indescribable It's like chasing dreams and life goals, stepping on every step with hardship With firm belief believe that you will arrive Occasionally there are steep slopes, occasionally rugged roads, occasionally smooth and unobstructed Occasionally── Isn't this life?
