Our guide told us most postcards about Lijiang is taken from the Black Dragon Pool. It provides a perfect position for taking a breathtaking view over the pond, pavilions and the bridges. The Jade Dragon Snow works artfully as the big background. The park itself is also a scenic spot, beautiful and peaceful, and is a very good choice to spend a lazy day. The entrance fee is Y20, while Y10 for the students. Good recommendation for nature lovers.

We attended a tour to Yunnan Lijiang in 2005. At the Dong Ba Culture Academe in Lijiang, after visited the Dong Ba Culture Museum guided by a young lady who called herself the student of the academe, we were lead to a long tunnel by the way, really a small temple. There are several light holder and rows of butter lamps in the tunnel. On the platform, there were many fortunetelling folders. Following a monk/ Taoist's guidance, I lightened a lamp and put it on the lampstand and picked up a folder. A man dressed as a Taoist opened the folder and exclaimed that: What a fortunate and well-off welldoer! Then I burnt a fistful of votive joss sticks and was charged RMB330.00. I assumed that donating RMB330 to the Dong Ba Culture Academe was also meaningful, so I accepted it. After I gave him that money, the man said RMB330 is not enough. The joss sticks I burnt valued at RMB990.00. I was so angry about that. In case of the security, I left RMB330 to him and left the temple right away. The young lady who lead us there explained that it did nothing with her and the Daoist would not pay any coin to her. I reported the incident to the local government afterward. What bad memory! Take care and be cautious to the sites unlisted in your itinerary.
