We arrived at Lijiang's extremely tiny airport (only 5 gates) and were picked up by a driver who took us to the ancient city of Lijiang.

We stayed at the 丽江古城瑞和园酒店 Zen Garden Hotel in the old town.



Just a step away was the New Moon Hotel



We were pleased with our hotel - it was very peaceful and charming
