The old town of Lijiang
... Baba, it is a thick wheat flatbread stuffed with meat, vegetables or sweets. Very yummy, but decadent.
Sam ate some Yak meat too, he wasn't to sure about that flavour.
The word Naxi descends from ethnically Tibetan Qiang tribes, and lived until recently in matrilineal families, which basically means the women run the show.
We walked up to the ...
The (way too popular) old town of Lijiang
... cobblestone alleys, making it another Venice in China :-). From my point of view I would actually call Lijiang the Venice of China rather than Suzhou, as Lijiang is much bigger and has much more and more beautiful channels. Oh well both towns are about 2.800km apart so let's not argue about it too much ;-).

Tiger Leaping Gorge

Kunming - Tiger Leaping Gorge
... Lijiang nog meer heeft dan Dali is een enorme barcultuur. Je merkt er helemaal niks van, totdat je op het centrale plein komt rond een uur of 8. Disco’s, muziek en een hele hoop bier. Je moet namelijk op al deze plekken tenminste 1000 yuan (ongeveer 125 euro) neertellen om een tafel te bemachtigen (iets wat Chinezen erg graag doen, om te showen uiteraard). Je ziet dus tafels vol met ongeopend bier. Als je wil zitten, kom dan met een dikke portemonnee. Noam, Fiona, Allard en ...
