大研安缦探索之旅

Experience the living heritage of the Naxi people through four traditional performances: Leba Dance, Sword Dance, Remei Cuo and Naxi Ancient Music. Presented in collaboration with local cultural heritage practitioners, each offers a vivid window into centuries of Dongba culture and tradition.

Steeped in centuries of tradition, Yunnan’s tea culture is closely entwined with the Ancient Tea Horse Road. Led by a tea master, this tasting explores distinctive Pu’er teas, the rituals of their preparation and the stories carried along this historic mountain route.

Rooted in the ancient Chinese medicine practice of ‘clothing therapy’, herbal sachets are a traditional wellness ritual. Guests select aromatic herbs, prepare and fill their own sachet, creating a fragrant keepsake to wear or gift to family and friends.

Experience the essence of Lijiang at Zhongyi Market, where the ancient city’s diversity comes to life. Stroll through the vibrant market, discovering Naxi and Bai culture, traditional dress and local life, while enjoying light morning exercise along the way.

Welcome the Spring Festival at Amandayan with traditions inspired by Lijiang’s cultural heritage. Create Dongba couplets and fortune pouches, try Wama clay sculpture and Yunnan Jiama woodblock rubbing, or make traditional tanghulu, with each ritual inviting good fortune for the year ahead.

Celebrate the Torch Festival, a vibrant tradition shared by the Yi, Naxi and other ethnic minorities. Guests craft flower-decorated torches before enjoying traditional performances, a bonfire and Naxi folk music, with the option to join local celebrations in the old town.

Mark the Mid-Autumn Festival by making traditional Naxi mooncakes, sharing a reunion dinner and admiring the moon over tea at Wenchang Palace. As summer arrives, the Dragon Boat Festival brings its own time-honoured rituals, from wrapping zongzi to crafting herbal sachets.

Rising above Lijiang, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain stretches across 13 peaks, its snow-covered range resembling a dragon among the clouds. Ascend by cable car to 4,506 metres before hiking to the 4,680-metre viewpoint, or explore the alpine meadows of Yunshanping and Maoniuping.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site with over 800 years of history, Lijiang Old Town unfolds along flagstone lanes, ancient bridges and traditional Naxi courtyards. From its heart, a stone path winds past 300-year-old Wenchang Palace to Amandayan, perched peacefully above the town.

Once a trading post on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, Shaxi preserves its flagstone lanes, old shops and horse inns. Deeper in the Jinsha River gorge, thousand-year-old Baoshan Stone City rises dramatically from a single red sandstone rock above the river.

Meaning ‘sun and moon in the heart’ in Tibetan, Shangri-La is a land of sweeping grasslands, snow-capped mountains and Buddhist monasteries. Journey through dramatic mountain gorges to Songzanlin Monastery, rising above the hills and known as the ‘Little Potala Palace’.

Carved between Jade Dragon and Haba Snow Mountains, Tiger Leaping Gorge is one of Yunnan’s most dramatic landscapes. Named for the legend of a tiger that leapt across its rushing waters, its high trail reveals sweeping views over the river and sheer mountain slopes.
