Crafting Our Story: A Guide to Dali and Lijiang in Yunnan

Why do so many criticize Yunnan, yet countless still visit? What makes one attached to a place? Is it memories, climate, or pace of life? Falling for Yunnan requires more…

It’s the warm sunlight illuminating snow-capped peaks and people’s hopes; the pleasant climate nurturing nature and travelers’ souls. Urban clamor may dull your senses, but have you forgotten:

The soul-stirring sunrise at Lake Lugu;
The freedom-inspiring sun-drenched white-walled villages in Shangri-La;
The afternoon tea at Cangshan’s foot, savoring life’s beauty;
The passionate guitar and songs in Lijiang’s Old Town at night.

In Yunnan, anyone can find their desired freedom.
