Lijiang is most beautiful part of China with great guide Jack Ma - Three of us visited Lijiang for 4 days - I have visited many places in China, I believe that Lijiang is among the most beautiful. We so enjoyed learning about the Naxi ethnic people and Dongba culture. We had an excellent guide Jack Ma of lijiang (@adamlijiang). Jack speaks very good English and he is very knowledgeable about the culture. Jack took us to the best attractions - we didn't have enough days to see it all, so he made sure that we saw the best. I recommend Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, take the cable car to Yak meadow. Incredible! Old authentic temple there too. We went to the show Impressions, also worth it, best if your weather not too hot, we were glad we had raincoats. We saw Tiger Leaping Gorge - awesome! If the stairs down are too much, you can take a sedan chair and be carried like royalty (my husband did this!) We saw several temples, museums, and spent a morning at a really beautiful park in Old Town Lijiang. Jack took us to good restaurants, had good clean comfortable transportation, always had water for us, and he had a way of getting us around many of the long lines that were inevitable due to our travel time during Golden Week. I recommend Lijiang. And Jack Ma as your guide.
