Explore canals, stone lanes and Naxi courtyards before walking to Black Dragon Pool for classic mountain views. Walking and driving are balanced through the day, with the longer outdoor section scheduled for the most suitable light and conditions.
Visit Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Blue Moon Valley, with the cableway and walking level selected for current conditions. The order may shift slightly with weather and opening conditions, but the day stays within the same area to avoid wasteful backtracking.
Private transfer to the airport or railway station, with free time added when schedules allow. The transfer is part of the day rather than hidden between activities, with comfort stops and hotel or station assistance arranged as required.
Planning note for this route
Allow three days for Lijiang highlights, five days with Lugu Lake, or six days when combining Shangri-La. Final train or flight times should be confirmed before fixing the last day; when timings change, sightseeing is shortened instead of adding an unrealistic transfer.

The planned route starts around Lijiang and finishes around Lijiang. Exact airport, railway-station or hotel transfers are matched to your confirmed arrival and onward tickets.
