The Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple (崇圣寺三塔景区), set against the stunning backdrop of the Cangshan Mountains and overlooking Erhai Lake, are an iconic symbol of Dali. These three pagodas consist of a central pagoda, Qianxun Pagoda, which stands at 69 meters, flanked by two smaller pagodas. According to local legend, the pagodas were constructed to deter dragons that once inhabited the swampy area of Dali. Take time to appreciate the intricate architectural details that have allowed these structures to withstand the centuries. Don't miss the picturesque reflection pond in front of the pagodas, offering stunning mirror images perfect for photos. Next, visit Chongsheng Temple (崇圣寺), located just behind the pagodas. Once the royal temple of the Dali Kingdom of Nanzhao and nicknamed “the Capital of Buddhism,” it is also known as Tianlong Temple from Jin Yong's Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils. As you tour the temple grounds, explore worship halls such as the Mahavira Hall and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere. From higher points, you can take in sweeping panoramic views of the Cangshan Mountains and Erhai Lake. After that, take an electric cart along the ecological corridor of the west side of Erhai Lake (洱海).

After breakfast, let's experience the lively atmosphere of Xizhou at the local market. There's no better way to get under the skin of a place than by exploring its local market, here you can witness firsthand the local customs and mouth-watering dietary habits. This market has been a gathering spot for over a century where locals trade a wide array of goods - from farm-fresh produce and unique handicrafts to tantalizing local snacks. Yunnan, fondly known as the "Kingdom of Flora and Fauna," is a place where flowers and insects find their way into the local cuisine! Don't be surprised if you come across unfamiliar vegetables, fruits, and wild mushrooms. While you're there, don't miss your chance to try local favorites like Xizhou baba (a tasty stuffed pancake, savory or sweet) and a cup of freshly brewed Yunnan coffee. After exploring the market, take a walking tour of Xizhou Ancient Town (喜洲古镇), acclaimed as the "Premier Town of the Bai people" due to its exceptionally the largest and best-preserved cluster of Bai ethnic group's traditional dwellings. Xizhou Village is ideal for those seeking a more authentic and tranquil cultural experience of Bai life and traditions. As you wander through the village, visit some of the old mansions and Bai residences like Yan Family Compound (严家大院), you'll notice the most distinctive features of Bai architecture known as "Three-Room and One-Screen Wall (三房一照壁)" and "Siheyuan/Courtyard (四合院)”. These homes are adorned with exquisite details such as flying eaves, ornately carved wooden doors and beautifully painted walls typical of Bai aesthetics. Don't miss the "Three Courses of Tea" ceremony (三道茶), a Bai cultural practice you must experience. This tea ceremony, which transitions from bitter to sweet to an aftertaste, encapsulates the philosophy of "embraces hardship, values the sweetness that follows struggles, and reflects on the profound aftertastes that life experiences leave behind". In addition, Xizhou is surrounded by vast wheat fields, creating a striking contrast against the grey-and-white tones of the Bai minority dwellings. This harmonious coexistence with nature provides a healing, wonderful feeling. The beautiful scenery, especially in spring and autumn, draws tourists to appreciate Xizhou's charms. Next, make your way to Zhoucheng Village, which is just a short drive from Xizhou. Zhoucheng Village (周城), is often referred to as the “Hometown of Bai Embroidery ”. It is Bai people village, famous for its traditional tie-dye art (扎染), which has been preserved and passed down through generations. The Bai tie-dye technique has been listed as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage. Explore workshops within the village that showcase exquisite Bai embroidery. These pieces often depict traditional motifs such as lotus flowers, fish, and birds, which carry significant cultural symbolism. Engage with the local craftsmen and women, many of whom have inherited their skills from generations. If you're lucky, you may witness live demonstrations of Bai embroidery and tie-dye techniques. In this afternoon, your group will be transferred to Shangri-La (only with the driver), located in the northwest of Dali city, about 300km, 4-hours' drive. Welcome to Shangri-La (香格里拉)!

After that, our local guide will take your group to visit Songzanlin Monastery (松赞林寺, also known as Ganden Sumtsenling Monastery), a sprawling complex perched at an altitude of 3,380 meters.

This morning, your group will be escorted from Shangri-La to Lijiang, with opportunities to explore breathtaking natural landscapes along the way. During the drive, you'll stop to visit the Upper Section of Tiger Leaping Gorge (上虎跳, altitude: 1,800 meters).

One of the deepest gorges in the world, Tiger Leaping Gorge offers a stunning view of the roaring Jinsha River and the natural power of its waters.

After breakfast, we will depart from Lijiang Old Town to visit Jade Dragon Snow Mountain (composed of 13 peaks). It is a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is a sacred mountain for the local Naxi people and is considered the embodiment of their deity, "Sanduo." The mountain is named for its appearance, which resembles a jade dragon, especially when its peaks are covered in snow during the winter. How to visit? We have selected the Spruce Meadow route for a relaxed experience. You will take cable car ride to an altitude of 3,240 meters. From there, you will walk on the plank road, through the spruce forest, view the mountain peak scenery. (Tip: This route is ideal as it avoids the physical demands, no high-altitude sickness.) Afterward, take a sightseeing bus to Blue Moon Valley (蓝月谷). The valley is a breathtaking sight, with its almost surreal turquoise blue water, reflecting the majestic Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the background. This valley boasts four lakes and a White Water Terrace. Each lake presents unique scenery, but the most beautiful one is the Jade Liquid Lake. The best time to admire the splendor of Blue Moon Valley is during a sunny midday when the lake's water, under the radiant sunlight, becomes as clear and blue as a mirror. You can capture many awesome photos here. Special Hot Pot Experience at Jade Dragon Snow Mountain: Asia Odyssey Travel specially arranges for your group to enjoy a hearty HOT POT after the mountain trip. Relax in the pleasant environment and enjoy the snow mountain view while savoring lunch with your friends. Leaving the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, you'll continue your journey to Baisha Village (白沙村), the birthplace of the Mu chieftaincy and the ancient capital of the Naxi ethnic group. Part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Old Town of Lijiang", Baisha Village offers a unique glimpse into the Naxi group's rich history and culture. Here, you can visit the Baisha Murals (白沙壁画), showcasing a unique fusion of Buddhist, Taoist, and local Naxi religious elements, reflecting the diverse spiritual beliefs of the region. These murals are found within several temples, including the Dabaoji Palace, the Liuli Temple, and the Wenchang Palace. Then, if your energy permits (optional), on the way back to Lijiang, you can make a stop at Shuhe Ancient Town (束河古镇). It is an important stop along the legendary Tea Horse Ancient Road. Unlike the bustling Lijiang Old Town, Shuhe offers a tranquil escape, with charming shops selling locally-made crafts lining the narrow cobbled streets. The gentle murmur of water flowing through canals and the aroma of Naxi cuisine wafting from cozy teahouses create a peaceful atmosphere where time seems to slow down. (Note: You can try local snacks like Chicken Bean Cold Noodles, Grilled Milk Fan, Fresh Flower Cake, Yunnan Ham Mooncake, and Jar-Roasted Rose Milk.) After the tour, head back to Lijiang.

今天上午，团队将从香格里拉前往丽江，沿途有机会欣赏令人惊叹的自然景观。 行车途中，您将停留游览虎跳峡上段（上虎跳，海拔1800米）。相传，一只被猎人追赶的老虎被下方奔腾的金沙江（长江的一部分）逼入绝境，纵身跃过峡谷最窄处，此地因此得名。虎跳峡是世界上最深的峡谷之一，可欣赏到咆哮的金沙江及其水流的自然力量，景色令人震撼。玉龙雪山（5596米）与哈巴雪山（5386米）巍然耸立于两侧，您将沉浸在美丽而多样的景观之中。您将沿着栈道步行，其中既有上坡路段，也有下坡路段（可选：付费乘坐电梯以节省体力）。 随后，在长江第一湾停留，您将目睹这条壮阔的河流在仅1公里的距离内，从向南急转90度转向东流。登上观景台，可饱览长江全景。 之后，团队将继续前往丽江。抵达后，您将有一些时间游览丽江古城，又称大研古城。丽江古城拥有800多年历史，曾是著名的“茶马古道”上繁华的贸易中心。其迷宫般的布局包括石板街道、飞檐翘角的传统木屋、古桥以及错综复杂的水系网络。随后，前往较高处的观景点，欣赏古城的壮丽全景，雪山构成绝美背景。再步行一小段路前往四方街，这是古城最著名的广场，您可以在这里探寻纳西族手工艺品、纪念品、当地特产，感受热闹酒吧与街头音乐交织的活力氛围。 之后，参观黑龙潭公园，位于丽江古城北端。这一风景名胜可欣赏周边迷人景致，背景是雄伟的玉龙雪山。天气晴朗时，雪峰倒映在宁静的黑龙潭水面上，景色令人叹为观止。 夜宿丽江古城。 概述：前往丽江，沿途游览虎跳峡、长江第一湾；在丽江游览丽江古城、黑龙潭公园。（含早餐） 景点：4个景点 交通与活动：乘车 用餐：早餐 住宿：舒适

早餐后，我们从丽江古城出发，前往玉龙雪山（由13座山峰组成）。它是联合国教科文组织世界遗产地，也是当地纳西族的重要神山，被视为他们神灵“三多”的化身。这座山因其外形酷似一条玉龙而得名，尤其是在冬季峰顶覆盖积雪时。 如何游览？我们选择了云杉坪路线，以获得轻松的体验。您将乘坐缆车到达海拔3240米的高度。从那里，您将沿着栈道步行，穿过云杉林，观赏山峰景色。（提示：这条路线是理想选择，因为它避免了体力消耗，不会产生高原反应。） 之后，乘坐观光巴士前往蓝月谷。山谷景色令人叹为观止，其几乎超现实的绿松石蓝色水域，背景中倒映着雄伟的玉龙雪山。这个山谷拥有四个湖泊和一个白水台。每个湖泊都呈现独特的景色，但最美丽的是玉液湖。欣赏蓝月谷壮丽景色的最佳时间是在阳光明媚的正午，此时湖水在灿烂的阳光下，变得如镜子般清澈湛蓝。您可以在这里拍摄许多精彩的照片。 玉龙雪山特色火锅体验： 亚洲奥德赛旅游特别安排您的团队在雪山之旅后享用丰盛的火锅。在宜人的环境中放松身心，一边与朋友品尝午餐，一边欣赏雪山美景。 离开玉龙雪山后，您将继续前往白沙村，这里是木氏土司的发祥地，也是纳西族的古都。作为联合国教科文组织世界遗产“丽江古城”的一部分，白沙村提供了了解纳西族丰富历史和文化的独特视角。在这里，您可以参观白沙壁画，展示了佛教、道教和当地纳西族宗教元素的独特融合，反映了该地区多元的精神信仰。这些壁画见于多个寺庙中，包括大宝积宫、琉璃殿和文昌宫。 然后，如果您的精力允许（可选），在返回丽江的路上，您可以在束河古镇停留。它是传奇茶马古道上的重要驿站。与熙熙攘攘的丽江古城不同，束河提供了一处宁静的避世之所，狭窄的鹅卵石街道两旁排列着出售当地手工艺品的迷人商店。运河流水的轻柔低语和舒适茶馆飘来的纳西美食香气营造出一种宁静的氛围，时间似乎在这里慢了下来。（注意：您可以品尝当地小吃，如鸡豆凉粉、烤乳扇、鲜花饼、云腿月饼和罐罐玫瑰牛奶。） 游览结束后，返回丽江。 概述：花一整天探索丽江和纳西族文化，涵盖玉龙雪山、蓝月谷、白沙壁画；并享用云南风味火锅午餐。（含早餐+午餐） 景点：4个景点 交通与活动：车辆 用餐：早餐,午餐 住宿：舒适
