Lijiang and Tiger Leaping Gorge

[chocolatebanana]

More China pics!  These are pictures from Lijiang, in northern Yunnan province (which is in southwest China, right next to Tibet).  Yunnan is famous for the many different ethnic groups that live in the area, each with their own unique music, dialects, dress, and food.  Lijiang is primarily home to the Naxi people.  A short distance away from Lijiang is the Tiger Leaping Gorge, where we'll be doing a two-day hike.  Fun stuff!
