After breakfast, we drive to Shibaoshan Cave. Shibaoshan, also known as Shanbao Mountain, is the center part of the ‘Three Parallel Rivers”, a UNESCO World Nature Heritage Site. With an area of about 25 square km, the mountain has fascinating and beautiful landscapes. When hiking on it, as the elevation changes, we may be able to experience different seasons and different weathers within the distance of a few kilometers. Leaving Shibaoshan, we drive to Lijiang. On the way, we stop at Jianchuan local market to further experience the local life. Upon arriving, we explore the Black Dragon Pool with Naxi Museum. Covering an area of about 40 hectares, this huge lake is a natural habitat for all kinds of waterfowl and fish. We take a walk around the lake and to the several temples surrounding it. In the evening, we have some free time in the famous Lijiang Old Town. Overnight in Lijiang.
