“From soul-warming rice noodles to hand-pressed Dongba paper—this is Lijiang, revealed in the most authentic way.”

After leaving Dali, our Tank 300 convoy tackles a scenic ~170 km drive (≈2½–3 hrs) into the cloud-kissed citadel of Lijiang, perched at 2,400 m above sea level and echoing with Naxi horse-caravan lore (UNESCO World Heritage since 1997) . Here, Yasuo Travel’s bespoke itinerary blends rugged off-road thrills with immersive Bai and Naxi culture—tea ceremonies, ancient‐paper workshops, tribal embroidery, and lakeside vistas—all under the expert escort of our professional guide team.
