STORIES ALONG THE WAY
Travel Inspiration
A seven-day itinerary starts in Kunming, enters Dali, includes Erhai Lake and the Old Town, and then heads to Lijiang. The expansive views along the shores of Erhai Lake and the narrow alleys of the Old Town offer two distinct experiences; there’s no need to rush through every lakeside photo spot in a single day.

route that connects the Bell and Drum Towers, Shuyuanmen, and the Stele Forest in the first segment, followed by urban areas such as the Small Wild Goose Pagoda and Sajin Bridge. Rather than taking photos at each spot and moving on, it’s better to choose adjacent areas for a continuous walk, observing the scale of the streets and daily life both inside and outside the city walls.

The route turns from Lhasa toward Nyingchi, then passes through the Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon, Sosong Village, and Lake Basum. Mountain roads, river valleys, and forests gradually become the focal point of the landscape; these days should not be viewed merely as a journey to a single lake.

an eight-day itinerary that goes from Chengdu through Huanglong into Jiuzhaigou. The lakes, forests, and mountains in the valley work together to create the landscape; a single high-saturation photo cannot capture the true hues of the water on that day.

a six-day itinerary that starts in Shanghai, then proceeds to Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Wuzhen. On your first day of arrival, there’s no need to cram the Bund, the Old City, and intercity travel all into one day; familiarize yourself with one neighborhood first, soak in the architecture and the city’s pace—this will provide a clear contrast when you later visit the water towns.

after visiting Wuzhen, Nanxun, Xitang, and Suzhou, the final leg of the itinerary turns toward Thousand Island Lake and the Fuchun River. The water becomes more expansive, and the way of sightseeing shifts from walking through streets and alleys to viewing from the lakeshore or aboard a boat.

The Yabuli segment focuses on snow activities and mountain transportation, while the Snow Village segment is best for exploring the village, woodlands, and snow-covered landscapes at night. When combining the two destinations, there’s no need to schedule the same activities at every stop.

Travel Inspiration
Mount Fanjing’s terrain, clouds, and visibility are highly weather-dependent. Setting aside a full day for this itinerary allows ample time for traveling to and from the scenic area and for hiking, so there’s no need to base your expectations on a single promotional photo taken on a sunny day.
