Kayaking on Lugu Lake: Exploring the Waters in a Traditional Mosuo Pig Trough Boat

#kayak #100waysoftravel #yunnan #lugulake #luguhu #travelchina One of the must-do activities at Lugu Lake is to kayak or take a traditional boat tour. Nestled on the border of Yunnan and Sichuan provinces, Lugu Lake is renowned for its crystal-clear waters, breathtaking mountainous backdrop, and cultural significance as the home of the Mosuo people, a minor ethnic group. The boats used on the lake are called pig trough boats, named for their resemblance to long pig troughs. These sturdy vessels are carved from openwork logs with sharpened ends, a unique tradition of the Mosuo people. While paddling in one of these boats can be challenging due to the heavy wooden paddles, the serene atmosphere of the lake makes the effort worthwhile. We visited in April and, unfortunately, missed the blooming season for 水性杨花 (aquatic poplar flowers), a special floating plant that graces the lake’s surface during the right time of year. Despite that, we enjoyed leisurely paddling across the tranquil water, taking in the picturesque views of the surrounding landscape. As the lake is quite expansive, we grew tired, and eventually, the boat master took over, guiding us back to shore. The entire experience was unforgettable, immersing us in the peaceful beauty of Lugu Lake and the Mosuo culture.

I recently visited Yunnan and discovered why it is known as the 'Land of Eternal Spring'

In China, many provinces are named after the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas on the land, but only Yunnan's clouds come from the sky. People use 'Land of Eternal Spring' to describe this realm. The complex monsoon alternations give the wandering clouds on the plateau the richest and most colorful changes. In the northwest of Yunnan, the coming and going of clouds creates a world of changing light and shadow. - Dali🏯 In Dali, the fixed combination is Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake. They are like an inseparable pair, blessing every man and woman who comes here. The ancient architecture and the pure blue sky reflect each other. Strolling by the Erhai Lake, with the breeze on your face, you feel the gifts of nature. Here, you will understand why people say Dali is a place that heals the soul🍃 - Lugu Lake🌊 Yunnan's clouds not only float in the sky but also in the water. If you like tranquility, you can come to Lugu Lake, face the water, watch the white clouds pass by, watch time slip away. The pure lake seems like nature's most perfect palette, with the reflection of the water and the mountains creating an interesting contrast. Walking by the lake, it's like being in a fairy tale world, where the Naxi and Mosuo girls capture everyone's hearts🌸 - Lijiang🌷 Everyone who has been to Lijiang has their own favorite aspect. Wooden buildings and stone paths, flowing water and fresh flowers, but one combination is the most beloved by many, which is the old town and the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Standing at the foot of the snow mountain, time seems to stand still, making you feel peace and happiness🌙 - Kunming✨ The sea of flowers in the Spring City, where the flowers bloom in a riot of colors, each with its own story. Every corner has the warm smiles of people. Here, you will understand the brilliance of life🌺 - Shangri-La⛰️ Shangri-La, first conceived over 80 years ago by a Western writer, in his depiction, there is an eternal land of peace and tranquility among the mountains in the Far East. That plateau seems like the staircase to heaven. The peaks of the snow mountains are shrouded in mist, and the people here, with their Buddhist faith, have souls as pure as snow and live simple and happy lives🏔️ - Yunnan, every step is a poem, every scene is a painting. The nature and culture here blend together, making it a place that captivates the heart. The beauty of Yunnan, like a dream, forever remains in my heart, becoming a precious experience in my life. If you like it here, then while the time is right, take a trip to Yunnan Turn the 'place you long for' into the 'place you have been'.

Driving 12 hours to this hotel by Lugu Lake is really worth it!!

I was really moved when I saw this hotel online. It's really worth it to drive 12 hours from Chengdu and stay for two days!! The view from the sea view room is really amazing🤩 You can see the reflection of Lugu Lake and Gemu Goddess Mountain. The bird's nest in the back mountain can really make me shoot for an afternoon. And the "Pianist on the Sea" feeling in the public area on the third floor. The meticulous care of housekeeper Owen and the rich breakfast. The hotel even offers free shuttle service in the Maybach scenic area!! The decoration style of Wabi-sabi is really comfortable to live in😌 I love the Dyson hair dryer and the full set of Santal33 products. It's really suitable to relax and enjoy the slow life here. In the afternoon, Lugu Lake is a good companion, and it's very comfortable to taste a cup of tea🍵 There are also rich dried fruits and fresh fruits and cakes🍰 If time permits, I really want to stay here for ten days and a half month.

Comprehensive comparison, which is more worth visiting, Lugu Lake or Erhai Lake?

Erhai Lake and Lugu Lake, as two lakes in the western Yunnan tourist route, many people who travel to Yunnan will be entangled, how to choose between Erhai Lake and Lugu Lake? This article will make a comprehensive comparison of the two lakes, like and collect notes, to see which lake is more suitable for you. 🍀Lake color: Lugu Lake > Erhai Lake Erhai Lake and Lugu Lake have many similarities, both lakes can be circled, and there are mountains by the lake. Erhai Lake is nestled at the foot of Cangshan Mountain, while the Gemu Goddess Mountain by Lugu Lake is also quite distinctive. The difference is that Erhai Lake is larger. Erhai Lake is the second largest lake in Yunnan after Dianchi Lake, while Lugu Lake is shared by Sichuan and Yunnan, ranking fifth in Yunnan. Just looking at the lake itself, the scenery of Lugu Lake is far better than that of Erhai Lake. The water quality of Lugu Lake remains in the first class all year round, the lake is clear, and it will show different colors at different angles, which is incomparable to Erhai Lake. So, if you want to see water, Lugu Lake is undoubtedly the first choice, provided it must be sunny. 🚌Transportation: Erhai Lake > Lugu Lake Erhai Lake is not far from Dali Ancient City, and it is on the must-pass route from Kunming to Lijiang, the transportation is very convenient, which is incomparable to Lugu Lake. In comparison, Lugu Lake is not on the main line of Yunnan tourism, most people choose to drive from Lijiang (about 4 hours, many mountain roads), precisely because of this factor, many people give up Lugu Lake, let Lugu Lake be unknown. In terms of tourism facilities, Erhai Lake and Dali Ancient City, Chongsheng Temple Three Pagodas, etc. constitute the basic plate of Dali travel, whether it is the richness of scenic spots or various entertainment facilities, Erhai Lake is much more complete. And Lugu Lake is relatively less diverse in scenery, mainly natural scenery. 💰Tourism cost: Lugu Lake > Erhai Lake Excluding the consumption factors of eating and living, the cost of going to Lugu Lake is higher than that of Erhai Lake. Mainly reflected in two aspects: First, time cost. As mentioned earlier, Lugu Lake is far away and is on the tourist branch line, so it usually takes 2-3 days to go to Lugu Lake. Second, ticket cost. Erhai Lake is free, Lugu Lake ticket is 70 yuan/person. ✨Comprehensive comparison: the duel of humanities and nature Overall, Lugu Lake and Erhai Lake have their own characteristics. Erhai Lake has a deeper historical accumulation, the story of wind, flower, snow and moon is long, and it is more literary and artistic to take pictures. And Lugu Lake is natural and primitive, the color of the lake and the colorful pig trough boat are memorable. If there is enough time, it is recommended to go to both Erhai Lake and Lugu Lake. If you have to choose one, it depends on whether you like nature or humanities more, I personally recommend Lugu Lake more.

Everything is full of vitality, the camellias in the yard, the magnolias in the park, the cherry blossoms next to the community, the willow fluff by the river... are all conveying the message of spring. Today, I will present a guide to Lijiang's spring, collecting a whole spring's heart! Smelling flowers Lijiang's spring is a 'flower' world. At the beginning of each spring, various flowers in Lijiang begin to bloom in spring. Red, white, yellow, pink... every flower is heart-moving. Slowly, the rapeseed flowers in Shigu Town, Lijiang began to bloom, a piece of golden rapeseed flowers, making romance and poetry come to mind. The spring of Shigu, the bright blue sky, the clear flowing river, the large terraced rapeseed flowers, the pink walls and black tiles of the houses, can't help but think of Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Spring. After the spring, the camellias of Yufeng Temple in Lijiang bloom brilliantly, bringing a different scenery to this spring, and also attracting many tourists to come and enjoy the flowers. Walking into Yufeng Temple, the camellias, ten miles of fragrance, mountain magnolias and other flowers in the courtyard are all vying to bloom, and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing. In spring, the pink on Cherry Blossom Avenue is particularly expected. In March, the cherry trees on both sides of Snow Mountain Road in Lijiang city begin to bloom in spring. At this time, the sea of flowers is like a tide, and the scenery is refreshing under the reflection of the snow mountain. With the snow mountain as the background, with the blue sky as the foil, on the dry thin branches, clusters of pink petals are extraordinarily beautiful. At the same time, the cherry blossoms of Puji Temple also entered the blooming period. Cherry blossoms, growing in the Zen-filled temple, seem to have a few more faint fragrances invisibly. The flower branches are higher than the beams, and the petals bloom above the tiles. The architecture here is antique, and the blooming of cherry blossoms has become a vibrant embellishment. In spring, the magnolia flowers in Lijiang Park bloom as scheduled. Under the blue sky, the white calyx is quietly and peacefully blooming, looking pure and gentle, shy and lovely. Every April, roses will bloom all over the streets and alleys of Lijiang. In Lijiang, many people like to plant a few roses in front of and behind their houses. The roses that wrap around the willows or trellises, quietly blooming in the corners of the ancient stone roads, under the white walls and green tiles, and in the deep courtyards. The flowers are clustered and fragrant, quite artistic. Garden tour Spring is a good season for outings, why not go to the park for a walk, breathe fresh air, watch flowers and grass spit out fragrance, and welcome the endless spring light. In spring, the sky in Heilongtan Park in Lijiang is high and far, and the white clouds are leisurely. The water here is clear and the air is fresh. It is a good place for spring outings. Entering the park, the first thing that comes into view is a calm and clear lake, with fish swimming freely in the lake. The lake reflects the scenery next to it, which is as beautiful as a picture scroll. Walking on the small road in the garden, you will also meet old people walking in Naxi costumes, a family of three who come out to relax in their spare time... Tourists gather by the lake and under the trees, in twos and threes, talking and laughing. Lake tour The distant green mountains are like dais, and the nearby green lakes are like jade. In the spring, facing the breeze, take a leisurely walk by the lake with family and friends, how comfortable. Lugu Lake is quiet and secluded. Tourists who come here will be intoxicated in the charming lake and mountain scenery and forget the way back. In spring, Lijiang Lashi Lake is vast, facing the spring breeze, taking a walk by the lake, plus the beautiful scenery, it is refreshing. Wenbi Mountain in Lijiang city is one of the best places to view the snow mountain. From Wenbi Mountain, the snow mountain and the reflection of the lake echo each other, showing the blank space of the landscape painting to the fullest. The newly built nearly 2 kilometers of viewing and fitness trail can be used for running, taking pictures, watching seabirds, and has become a new check-in place in Lijiang. In the north of Lijiang city, there is a place called Zhongji Sea. There is a gentle breeze, warm sunshine, and it is a good place for leisurely walks. Walking around Zhongji Sea, facing the water and the wind, let the clothes flutter, leisurely and contented. Qingxi Reservoir in the northern suburbs of Lijiang, looking up to see the blue sky, looking down to see the clear lake, the shadows of the trees are swaying. The snow mountain is reflected in the lake, which is beautiful and is a good place for walking, cooling off, and travel photography.

For this tranquil and primitive blue, I specifically flew to Lugu Lake

Less than a year's time, I visited Lugu Lake for the second time, simply because I love this bay of blue fantasy that is hard to describe in words. Pure, tranquil and primitive, everywhere I step is a fairyland. From the moment I arrived, no matter how tired, I feel refreshed, no matter how irritable, my mood instantly improves. - If it weren't for the limited time, I really want to sleep in Lugu Lake for a week, enjoying the brief and complete relaxation. The location of Qeman is excellent, on the hillside, facing Lugu Lake and Gemu Goddess Mountain, with no obstructions in the view, especially in the room, the aesthetic of tranquility and beauty plus the lake view, it feels like sleeping in a painting. Friends who like to take photos can bring a few sets of beautiful clothes, a casual shot with the phone is a magazine cover, the view of the three-story hall is also superb, afternoon tea plus lake view is simply amazing, there is also a bird's nest built in the forest, it's super comfortable to lie in on a sunny day. - It only takes a few minutes to walk from Qeman to Pulo Village Pier. When you come to Lugu Lake, you must take a pig trough boat to tour the lake. Seagulls follow you all over the sky, especially in the early morning, the morning fog plus sunrise here is absolutely beautiful. It's a pity that there was no morning fog on the day I was there, just leave the regret for the next time.

Autumn mountain full moon, this place is where my heart is

Encountering the 'autumn mountain' in the winter between the mountains and rivers, and seeing the beauty of the moonlit night of Lugu Lake at the time of the full moon, standing by the blue lake and taking a photo with the Gem Goddess Mountain. Autumn mountain full moon, this place is where my heart is. And the 'autumn mountain' has included this scene in every guest room. The moment of check-in is full of surprises. As long as you look out through the balcony and windows of the room, you can see the lake and mountains. It's like a gust of free wind. We also ride the wind and feel the poetic beauty of Lugu Lake's mountains and waters. About Autumn Mountain, a one-minute walk out of the door is the unrestrained pier where you can see the fairyland of morning mist. The design of the lonely wind, the color matching of the entire environment is a simple and clean theme, the aesthetics of the person in charge is good, the furniture and supplies are retro but not vulgar, so I love every corner here. The public area of the hotel is like a coffee shop by the lake, roasting fire in front of the fireplace, drinking coffee and enjoying the lake view, it's as comfortable as in a movie clip. Although there are only six rooms in the hotel, each room faces Lugu Lake. The design of the room is full of life aesthetics, and it looks like a picture book when you take a casual shot.

初探女兒國—雲南瀘沽湖

Located on the border between Yunnan and Sichuan provinces, Lugu Lake is the highest lake in Yunnan and the third largest deepwater lake in China. Under the natural veil of beautiful mountains and waters, there was an ancient and mysterious "daughter country" - the Mosuo people hidden on the shores of Lugu Lake. The Mosuo are currently the last Eastern ethnic group to retain the matriarchal system, and are unique among China's ethnic minorities; Magnificent natural landscapes and unique ethnic customs cast a strong legend on Lugu Lake. The Mosuo are the last Eastern people to retain the matriarchal system, so Lugu Lake has a special title called the Oriental Daughter Country. Just like the daughter's country in "Journey to the West", the Mosuo people are dominated by women, and their status is more prominent, and the eldest grandmother is generally the head of the family, in charge of the family's living, eating, production, sacrifices, etc., which is the core of the entire Mosuo family. We attended the Mosuo Museum and learned about one of their most unique cultures, marriage. Men and women who "go to marriage" only maintain their relationship with feelings, and once they find that their personalities are incompatible or their feelings are weakened, they can cut off their relationship with each other at any time, which shows that although the Mosuo people are in power by the matrilineal people, even the male people also have the right to freely choose their partners, preferring women but not boys. Lijiang to Lugu Lake transportation: You can choose chartered bus (5-6 hours) or bus (7-8 hours) We were in Lijiang and then asked the local travel agency. #瀘沽湖 #雲南

Hiking around Lugu Lake

My first time hiking at high evelations. It took me three half-days to complete the hike around Lugu Lake. On day 1 I hiked from Daluoshui village to Lige. I wouldn’t consider that part of the trail idea for hiking since it was mostly car roads but the views were indeed breathtaking. After finding my rhythm and getting used to high elevations, I decided to go for a moderate challenge on day 2 hiking towards Nvshenwan. Despite the fact that I started the hike late morning and had to stop from time to time to take in the incredible natural landscape, I managed to reach my destination before sunset and settled myself into an inn. The inn owner was such an interesting and knowledgeable person that I learned so much about the Mosuo culture from him. We spent the entire evening sitting around the fireplace conversing on a wide variety of topics. I finished around 65km of my trip around the lake with a bit of hitchhiking on the last day. Even though my back was in pain afterwards, the lake was absolutely worth the hike! #china #yunnan #nationalpark #lakes #wintergetaway #naturalwonders #hiking #hitchhike

The project itself is separated from Lugu Lake by a road, and it is not a natural slope, but a "man-made highland" is piled up through artificial filling, which gives "Shanhaishi" the beautiful scenery of the mountain and the lake. The smoke is curling, the birds are singing, the hotel is immersed in a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere, just as its name implies, "But talk about the mountains and seas, it seems that the forest is still there", it hopes that people will go to the free wilderness and go into the trivial daily life. Establish the closest relationship between man and nature. Design thinking "From the initial site survey, to the mid-term construction process, until the project is presented, I have stayed on this land for nearly two years, experienced the four seasons here, lived, breathed and felt here, which is very important to my design creation." The designer Yi Ping said, therefore, he consciously connected "Shanhaishi" with real life scenes, abandoned shy skills, and used a simple narrative method to tell us the story full of daily life. Based on his work experience in Yunnan and his life experience over the years, Yi Ping hopes that "Xujiu·Shanhaishi" will exist!

Green shade, I watch again, you can always believe in Chinese aesthetics.

🍃 "Less is more" It's a philosophical truth It's also an aesthetic thinking Under the green shade, this "wabi-sabi" aesthetic is brought to the extreme In the room, discard complicated decorations Earth tones as the keynote, a lot of white space ·🏠 The space can breathe freely here The light passes through the bamboo curtain and sprinkles mottled light and shadow The light spots jump on the exquisite old objects placed in the room The heavy and full of charm history fragrance comes to the face ·🌿 Linen curtains swing left and right with a little breeze The uncarved logs and soft cotton and linen fabrics depend on each other The rough pottery vase and the vibrant flowers in the bottle coexist harmoniously Brew a pot of 300-year-old ancient tree tea in the tea bar in the house Taste the tea, look at the beautiful scenery outside the window Dust off the mundane chores and return to the true self —————————————————————— 🏡Name: Under the Green Shade·Holiday Villa | Luxury Vacation Boutique Homestay 📍Address: No. 67, Wenhua Lane, Yishang Community, Dayan Street, Lijiang Ancient City ✓ Exquisite double breakfast🫕 ✓ Chinese afternoon tea in the courtyard🥗 ✓ Good night sweet soup🦪 ✓ Daily fresh fruit plate🍒 ✓ Mini Bar drinks🍸 ✓ Butler service🛎
