National Day trip to Lijiang, here's a guide to avoid pitfalls, regret if you don't read!

The National Day holiday is approaching, sisters can choose their favorite inns in advance, stay for three nights and get a free airport pick-up. Remember to ask in advance to avoid spending unnecessary money. If you want to taste flower cakes, choose the best hand-baked ones, taste them while they're hot, the taste is indescribable. In addition, sunscreen is essential, especially in Lijiang, which is located on the plateau with strong ultraviolet rays. Carry an umbrella, suitable for both sunshade and rain. After October, there is less rain, mostly sunny and cloudy days, the sun is strong, it is crucial to bring an umbrella. In October, the temperature in Lijiang is between 9-20 degrees, don't take it lightly, prepare more clothes, especially autumn clothes. The temperature difference between morning and evening is large, you need to carry windbreakers, thin sweaters and other warm clothes to avoid catching a cold. When the rainy season comes, even if the weather is clear, you need to prepare thick clothes. Lijiang is extremely dry, body lotion and hydrating masks are indispensable. For accommodation, it is recommended to choose areas near or around the ancient city to avoid the central area of the ancient city. The stone road is rugged and difficult to walk, if there is an innkeeper to help pick up and drop off, it will be twice the result with half the effort. There is no need for tickets to the ancient city, and there is no worry about maintenance fees. When shopping, you need to learn to bargain, most of the shops in the ancient city are small commodities from Yiwu, you can compare prices by visiting several shops for dresses, earrings and other items. Don't wear high heels to visit the ancient city, the stone road can damage your feet. If you want to stroll comfortably, please bring a pair of flat shoes. Don't easily believe in the enthusiastic chats of the aunties on the side of the road, they mostly have the intention of promoting sales. Be careful when taking black cars, many private cars are unlicensed. After getting on the car, make sure the license plate matches the order. Yunnan travel route suggestion: Kunming, Dali, Lijiang all have airports, you can fly directly to the destination; you can also go to Kunming first and then go to Lijiang, Shangri-La, Lugu Lake and Dali for sightseeing. Yunnan's attractions are scattered, first-time visitors are recommended to join a local small group, when signing up, make sure there is no promotion.
