After yesterday’s hectic schedule, we will be taking it easy today. Woke up late and went straight to Brunch near Shuhe Ancient Town.

We were directed to take the lift up to the 3rd floor.

A cosy restaurant that provides heating inside the restaurant. Best of all, unlike most other restaurants in China, those who lit up a cigarette were asked to move to the outdoor area.

We ordered prawns.

Chinese spinach.

Grilled whole fish.

Mushroom rice. They were all very yummy.

After lunch, we took a slow walk to Shuhe Ancient Town.

Fewer people can be found here.

Locally printed garments.

Many restaurants here.

A wide range of items for sale.

A popular Cafe cum fashion outlet.



As in Lijiang Old Town, many of the shops use dogs or cats to attract customers.

This free-roaming dog came along and played with us for a while.



The place still retains its old, ancient look.


Decided to take a stroll through the town on horseback.

After the horse ride, we had tea in this postcard shop cum cafe.

It has a lot of cute merchandise here.

Order your drinks and cakes here.

And have it on the 2nd floor.

Our coffee and cake.

After the tea break, we continued to walk a little more around the place.

Next, we headed to Lijiang International Shopping Plaza.


Some popular brands here.

A popular supermarket.



Quite a big place.

Our dinner for the night.

Night view of our Homestay.
