Trip Itinerary & Travel Details
Pick up at your Lijiang hotel in the morning. Today you will visit the Mufu (Mu's Mansion), which is the Lijiang's ancient ruler Mu's official residence. Here Governor Mu of Ming dynasty built his mansion copying the style of the Forbidden City. Continue to visit the former residence of Dr. Joseph Rock, eccentric Austrian-American botanist who lived in Lijiang from 1929-1949, did research on the area, and wrote for National Geographic. Late afternoon, tour the ancient Town of Dayan, a World Heritage Site in China recognized by the United Nations in 1999. Transfer back to your hotel in the late afternoon.
Ancient Town of Dayan -- "Dayan" literally means a "great ink stab", a graphic description of the town's location on a piece of rich flatland fed by a river and surrounded by green mountains. There is no other town in China like Dayan which incorporates the folkways of so many people and the architectural styles of both north and south China. Bridges are seen everywhere, linking streets and lanes. Many were built during the Ming and Qing period from the 14th to the early 20th centuries which have survived the wars and earthquakes. (L)
