Shuhe
- Lijiang Travel |
|
|
| |
|
| |
Shuhe
is also one of the first settlements for the
ancestors of Naxi
Minority. It’s a very important
town in the Tea-horse Ancient Road that leads
to Tibet.
The leather products they make were the best
seller in Tea-horse Ancient Road. |
| |
Shuhe
was built along the mountainside and faces
the river. There are two rivers on each side
of it that go through the whole village. Channels
pass by each house; with the stony roads it
just like a dense web and link the town in
a tight honeycombed structure. People use
stones in the nearby mountains to make the
walls of their houses. Compared to those in
the Lijiang
Old Town, the houses here are even more
natural. |
| |
Right
in the middle of Shuhe,
there is a square market selling some souvenirs.
It is recommended having a soft hiking before
the dark comes. Follow the stone-made paths,
discover the local characteristic houses accompany
with the sound from the streams. The streams
are clean and transparent; the Naxi
minority holds the streams as holy. After
hiking up around 10 minutes, you arrive to
a small temple on top of the hill. Right there
you can overlook the whole view of both Shuhe
and the Lijiang
Old Town. |
| |
Walking
in Shuhe,
you will have the feeling that this town is
the extension and supplementary model of the
Lijiang
Old Town. |
| |
Without
the big waterwheel and away from the busy,
touristic Lijiang
Old Town, Shuhe probably is another peaceful
place for you to feel the ancient aspect of
Yunnan.
With an extra 40 minutes easy trekking, it
is possible to access to another distinctive
village - Baisha.
