Lijiang Travel Tips

Lijiang is separated into the old and new town with Lion Hill (a local landmark) marking the 'dividing line'. East of the hill is the old town, and to the west is the new town district. Motor vehicles are completely forbidden in the old town and even bicycles have to be walked here. Even if you wanted to ride your bicycle, you would find the uneven stone streets of Lijiang extremely uncomfortable to ride on.

Business hours in Lijiang (new town) are not fixed with most businesses operating from 9am-7pm.
Be careful if you are walking alone in the old town as some locals have taken to robbing lone foreigners, especially women. While there have only been a few incidents, walk with others and avoid suspicious looking people. As usual, common sense should prevail at all times, especially regarding pickpockets.
