In the morning, depart from Lijiang Old Town and head to Lashi Lake Wetland Park. This is Lijiang's largest plateau lake, offering diverse scenery throughout the four seasons. It is particularly ideal for bird watching and immersing yourself in the natural landscape. Stroll along the wetland boardwalk, where you can encounter leisurely cattle up close. Feel free to stop and take photos to capture this beautiful moment.
Afterwards, experience horseback riding on the Ancient Tea Horse Road (horse riding fees are to be paid on-site). Choose a reputable stable and follow an experienced guide through Naxi villages and mountain paths of the ancient road, truly experiencing the hardships and magnificence of the ancient tea and horse trade.
In the afternoon, head to Baisha Old Town. As one of the earliest settlements of the Naxi people in the Lijiang坝子 (bà zi - flatland), Baisha Old Town is the birthplace of the Mu clan chieftains. It preserves many original Naxi traditional buildings and culture. Stroll along the stone streets of the ancient town, admire the ancient murals, feel the charm of time, and interact with local residents to experience the purest Naxi customs.
Finally, depending on the time, return to Lijiang Old Town and end this fulfilling and enjoyable day trip. The entire itinerary is compact and organized, allowing you to fully appreciate the natural beauty of Lashi Lake, the cultural heritage of the Ancient Tea Horse Road, and the rustic charm of Baisha Old Town.
