After lunch, we proceed to watch Impression Lijiang. 1.30pm
An outdoor folk performance of 500 people of different tribes in Lijiang at the foot of Jade Dragon Mountain. This is a cultural show demonstrating the traditions and lifestyles of the Naxi, Yi and Bai peoples of the area. The show takes place inside Jade Dragon Snow Mountain Park at 3500m in an outdoor theater specifically designed to showcase the mountain which is used as a backdrop.

Another great production by China's leading film director Zhang Yimou.
The whole place is packed with audience and some performers are even as old as 80 years old.
Great show, although not as wonderful as Olympic 2008:)

After the show, we went to the back of the Amphitheatre.
Drop our wishing cards to the wishing well.
That's Jade Dragon Mountain (ADSL 5596m)


Baishui River (白水河)
Blue Moon Valley (蓝月谷)
Rated AAAAA
This is most beautiful place throughout the whole trip.
Baishui River is at the foot of Jade Dragon Mountain, the water is very cool and clear.
