Stay at the Snow Mountain Viewing Platform! Discover 3km of hidden gems around Yueshan, a lazy traveler’s guide is here

After staying at 5 guesthouses in Lijiang, Yueshan Viewing Guesthouse completely won me over! Open the window to face Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, a 10-minute walk to the heart of the ancient town, and within 3 kilometers are 5 stunning spots. Here’s a one-stop guide for lazy travelers to copy directly! ✨Guesthouse Highlights✨ ✅ Watch the golden sunrise on the mountain in the morning, fall asleep under the starry sky at night, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing a natural painting! ✅ Naxi old house renovation: white walls, blue tiles + tie-dye fabrics, a courtyard with an osmanthus tree where you can sit and daydream during leisure time. ✅ Quiet and secluded location: away from the main street noise, yet just 5 minutes on foot to Sifang Street, so quiet at night you can hear the stream. 🌄 Must-visit spots within 3km 1️⃣ Jiuding Longtan | 8-minute walk ▫️ The "soul water source" of Shuhe, the pond water is emerald green like jade, with morning mist creating a fairy-like atmosphere! ▫️ Hidden activity: Walk along the boardwalk by the pond to "Sanyanjing" (Three-Eyed Well), watch locals fetch water and wash vegetables, and experience living culture. 2️⃣ Hali Valley | 8-minute walk ▫️ Naxi ancient architecture cluster! Blue tiles, red walls + stone paths, perfect for taking stunning photos in Hanfu, few people and beautiful scenery beyond the camera! ▫️ Tips: Go at dusk, the sunset shining through the eaves onto the walls creates amazing light and shadow. 3️⃣ Tea Horse Road Museum | 15-minute walk ▫️ A must for horse caravan culture fans! Old saddles, copper bells, yellowed contracts, immerse yourself in the history of the thousand-year trade route. 4️⃣ Jubao Mountain | Free | 10-minute taxi ride ▫️ A local secret "Snow Mountain Viewing Platform"! Climb 10 minutes to the top for panoramic views of Shuhe and Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in one frame. 5️⃣ Baisha Ancient Town | 15-minute taxi ride ▫️ Quieter than Dayan, more original than Shuhe! Visit the second floor of "7sea Café" for magical shots of the snow mountain and ancient town together. ▫️ Must-eat: "Mantou Poet" rose steamed buns, fragrant, sweet, and soft! 📸 Guesthouse photo guide ▫️ 7 AM: Snow mountain sunrise + guesthouse courtyard light and shadow ▫️ 6 PM: Third-floor terrace for photos of "ancient town blue tiles + snow mountain sunset glow" 🌟 Summary: “If you want to explore Shuhe with the guesthouse as your base and avoid crowds, Yueshan is definitely a win-win choice for cost performance and experience!
