    Lijiang, a city in the northwest part of China's Yunnan province, is home to the Naxi and several other ethnic minority groups. A commercial center in the 1300s, its old town encompasses cobblestone streets, canals and Central Market Square with shops and restaurants. Black Dragon Pool has famed views of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain range, fronted by the Moon Embracing Pavilion.

    Lijiang is a place for leisure. People from many big cities in China go to Lijiang and Dali to relax. I miss two foods in Lijiang. One is the cured pork ribs hotpot(腊排骨火锅), which is the traditional hotpot of the Naxi minority and is very delicious. The other is the chicken bean jelly(鸡豆凉粉), which is a bean product. It seems to have no taste, but the more you eat it, the more addictive it is.

You can see Vast Grasslands and go ride horses there, and experience Mongolian culture. However, the land in Inner Mongolia is pretty barren, so after a few days maybe you will feel bored. Gobi desert and Grassland mostly. Weather extremely dry. July is the best time to visit as the Grasslands are green.

Zhangjiajie has Avatar mountains, Jiuzhaigo has lakes like what you saw in Kunming, probably more beautiful. One of the Hong Kong movie was filmed here. Yangshuo has both beautiful lakes and mountains. Watch Zhangjiajie in the channel, Sun Kissed Bucket List. The RUclipsrs from this channel is from the UK. Another channel that you should watch is Flora and Note. They went to one of the beautiful village in China. Have a nice trip and enjoy your journey.
