Features: Lijiang is very small. Until over a decade ago, only a few people knew Lijiang and the Naxi people. In the past decade, Lijiang has become as familiar to the Chinese as the old saying "Heaven is above, Suzhou and Hangzhou are below." Some even say it is a place between Heaven and Suzhou—those winding streets, rivers flowing through the streets and into people's homes, ancient stone and wooden bridges, courtyards that fully enjoy the sunshine, air, and rain, and the contented, peaceful, and harmonious Naxi people. Because of its peace, freedom, and authenticity, many say: Lijiang is the spiritual home of humanity. Lijiang is like a Naxi girl with big eyes, high nose, and slightly tanned skin. She has a sincere smile and a clear voice, making guests feel relaxed, at ease, and happy, as if at home. Because of her, we feel that the world is warm and our homeland is beautiful.
