High-angle look at Lijiang Old Town

Seen from elevated viewpoints like Lion Hill (狮子山) and Wangu Tower, the entirety of the Old Town—its cobbled streets, black-tiled roofs, stone bridges, and ancient waterways—unfolds like a living painting. In the distance, the majestic Jade Dragon Snow Mountain crowns the scene, offering a dramatic backdrop. The historic mosaic of roofs and canals, set against Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, feels timeless—an impression of strolling through centuries when seen from above. The elevated perspective gives a sense of both scale and intimacy, revealing town layouts while showcasing daily life below. Watching light shift and dusk descend—from golden to lantern-lit—adds drama and magic to each frame. #awesomepic
