Lugu Lake, the Land of Daughters Hidden in the Mountains

After traveling to so many places, #Lugu Lake is still the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen✨ Lugu Lake is the clearest plateau lake I have ever seen. It is home to the Mosuo people, the last ethnic group that still retains a matriarchal culture. Therefore, Lugu Lake is also known as the Kingdom of Daughters. For transportation, we chose to take a flight from Kunming to Lugu Lake Airport, which took about 1 hour, and then take the airport bus for nearly 1 hour to reach Lugu Lake Scenic Area. It should be noted that there is only one flight from Kunming to Lugu Lake on Mondays and Wednesdays, and because Lugu Lake Airport is located on a plateau, flights are very likely to be cancelled due to weather reasons, disrupting your trip. We encountered heavy snow at Lugu Lake Airport this time❄️, but fortunately the flight was only delayed and not cancelled. When you arrive at the entrance of the scenic spot by bus, the staff will remind all passengers to get off the bus and buy tickets for 70/person. To visit Lugu Lake, we chose to charter a car to travel around the lake, which costs 250/day. The chartered driver will lead you around the lake and visit all the attractions of Lugu Lake. The water of Lugu Lake is as clear as a mirror. Seagulls from Siberia fly freely on the lake. You can bring some biscuits to feed the seagulls, which is very interesting.

Lugu Lake Scenic Area

Lake Ligu | Feel the scenery of lakes and mountains and the culture of Mosuo in the "Daughter Country of the East" Ligu Lake is located in Ligu Lake Town, Ningxia County, Lijiang City. Although the traffic is a little winding, it is far away from the hustle and bustle, and the environment is really first-class. The lake is surrounded by mountains and mesmerizing blue water. It is known as the "Daughter Country of the East". Not only can you enjoy the tranquil natural scenery, but you can also experience the unique matriarchal culture of the Mosuo people and feel the slow pace of life different from the city. Trip recommendations/tour routes You can start by strolling around the lake in the morning, it is recommended to rent a bicycle or walk slowly around the lakeside villages and canyons. Along the way, you will see wooden houses and swanky bridges with the characteristic Mosuo ethnic group, as well as wildflowers blooming by the lake, which is beautiful all year round. Afterwards, you can take a boat out of the lake and experience the “pig trough boat” operated by the Mosuo people – the lake is calm and the surrounding mountain scenery is reflected in the water. If time permits, it is recommended to go around the lake (the total length of the road around the lake is about 50 kilometers), drive or charter along the lake to visit the main attractions, including the Lover's Tree, Grass Sea, Rigg Island and Walking Wedding Bridge. Since it is open all day year round, it is very convenient to watch the sunrise or sunset, and the lake is most worth taking pictures when it is flooded. Must-play/check-in spot - Walking Wedding Bridge: A symbol of "walking marriage" for Mosuo men and women. - Rigg Peninsula: A peninsula protruding from the lake, with very eye-catching boats and village views, it is a popular photo spot. - Grass sea: Large areas of aquatic plants by the lake, especially layered in photography. - Lover's Tree: Two large trees that depend on each other, the legend has a romantic meaning, and is a must-visit landmark for couples. Tips and Notes 1. Visiting in the off-season (April to June, September to November) is recommended to avoid the peak summer crowds and enjoy the lake view more quietly. 2. The temperature difference between day and night is large, morning and evening to bring a jacket. 3. Mobile signal in the Lake District is sometimes weak, it is recommended to download the map in advance. 4. Maintain respect for the local customs of the Mosuo people. 5. There are many observation decks and camping spots on the lakeshore, and accommodation can be booked in advance if you plan to stay overnight. Admission/Transportation - Tickets: RMB 70 - Address: Liguhu Town, Ningxia County, Lijiang City - Open all day year round You can charter a car or take public transportation in Lijiang or Ningxia County. During non-peak seasons, it is recommended to arrange transportation in advance to avoid delays. Closing topic After visiting Lake Ligu, one can truly experience the feeling of slowing down and getting closer to nature. During what time period would you most like to visit Lake Ligu? Is it to watch the sunrise or sunset? Let's share your favorite photo spots and feelings! #LakeLake #Mosuo Culture #Lijiang Travel #Lake Route #Lake Mountain Scenery
