Autumn charm in Lijian, Yunnan

#yunnanspots #hellohalloween 🏔Tucked beneath the majestic Jade Dragon Snow Mountain , Lijiang Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that turns into pure magic in autumn. 🏚Its cobblestone streets, flowing canals, red lanterns, and wooden houses glow even brighter under the golden touch of fall 🍂✨. 🌄🏯Climb up to a rooftop viewpoint , and you’ll see endless tiled roofs framed by crisp skies and mountain peaks—an unforgettable scene. 🐉Not far away, the Black Dragon Pool offers one of the most iconic reflections in China: fiery autumn leaves 🍁 mirrored in calm waters, with Jade Dragon Snow Mountain shining in the background ❄️🌿. It’s the perfect place to breathe in the crisp mountain air, enjoy peaceful strolls, and soak in cozy autumn vibes 🌙💛. 🍂✨Lijiang in fall is a short-lived, golden season that makes this UNESCO treasure even more enchanting. 🌸🌍💛 #chinatravel #lijiangtravel #lijiangoldtown #lijiangchina #yunnantravel #yunnan #autumn #autumnbeauty #autumnvibes
