Lijiang Holidays

A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997, Lijiang is a picturesque town set against a backdrop of magnificent snow-capped mountains.

Allow yourself to get lost in the maze of cobbled streets, lined with tea houses, cafés and colourful markets. Discover traditional Naxi architecture and old stone bridges in the charming old town or take a cable car up Jade Dragon Snow Mountain for spectacular glacier views.

The most famous draw to Lijiang is the opportunity to visit the beautiful Tiger Leaping Gorge, so named as at its narrowest point a Tiger is said to have leapt 30 metres across the gap to escape a hunter.

Trailfinders offer a range of China holidays and our expert travel consultants are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand experience. Whether you want to explore China with your own private guides and drivers, on a sociable small group tour or on a stopover en route to another destination - they are the perfect people to ask.
