Lijiang is a very slow-paced place, we have no way to live a fast-paced life, we can only choose a comfortable life.
Before arriving at the south gate early in the morning, I saw a girl in a blue cloth dress from a distance. I was very happy. There is no problem in taking pictures with this dress.
We set off from the south gate of the ancient city. Perhaps because of the off-season, there were not many cars on the road, and we soon reached the road leading to the snow mountain.
What came into view was a straight road. There are pine trees that have just been planted in the past two years on the side of the road. If you don’t look at the yellow lawn behind the pine trees, you will think it is still spring.
After a while we were far away from the urban area. Looking at the yellow grassland next to us and the snow-capped mountains in the background, we couldn't help but parked the car on the side of the road. Shout out to them to go down and take some pictures.
After taking a few photos, we set off again, and soon arrived at a three-way intersection, with Yuhu Village on one side and Blue Moon Valley at the foot of the snow mountain on the other.
We arrived at the toll office in about twenty minutes.
After entering the Snow Mountain Scenic Area, you can reach the Blue Moon Valley in about 15 minutes by car.
After a while, they arrived at the destination, Blue Moon Valley.
This is a beautiful place that can make people cry. I thought it would be very cold, but who knows that the sun is warm and I don't feel cold at all. Think about it, this is the weather in November. I was fine with just a shirt on.
We first walked down the lake.
Looking at the mountain behind, the yellow and green forest and the green water below the mountain, I feel much better
After strolling around for a while, I thought I should go to the top to have a look. After all, I haven’t been here for a long time. Is it right to appreciate this piece of "blue eyes"?
After a long journey by water, I arrived at the shore, and went up on the return journey. Because it was a plateau, it was climbing again. After walking for a while, it was inevitable that I would feel out of breath.
In a short while we arrived at the upper lake of the Blue Moon Valley.
There is also a waterfall here, but it is completely different from the one below. The one here is more beautiful.
After returning to the car, I saw that the time was five o'clock, and there was still some time before dusk, so I continued to drive forward, wanting to see what it looked like behind the snow-capped mountains. It is said that this road was originally the old road from Lijiang to Shangri-La.
On the way back to the city, I thought there should be music at this time. Because it is about to enter dusk, and at dusk, this road is very beautiful, very beautiful. The end of the journey is a new beginning.

Following the footsteps of the setting sun, we came to Shuhe Ancient Town
Shuhe Ancient Town, a must-go place in Lijiang!
Compared with the past, the current Shuhe Ancient Town has much fewer tourists. There are more people on the main street and some places in the center of the ancient town, and there are scattered tourists on some small streets. However, if there are fewer people, you can just experience the quiet atmosphere of the ancient town and the small bridges and flowing water of Shuhe River.
The water in Shuhe Ancient Town is always clear. Order a cup of coffee, bask in the sun, and enjoy the lazy time in Lijiang quietly.
Arriving in Shuhe at night, I happened to be hungry, so I found a time-honored restaurant to taste the legendary food. It is indeed the legendary food. The taste is super good, the service is good, the environment is super good, and there are singers singing, it is very worthwhile try it!
An old end is a new beginning.
looking forward to the next trip
