On a cold winter day, people always look forward to a warm and pleasant place, and at the junction of Sichuan and Yunnan, there is a mysterious and beautiful lake, which is the third largest freshwater lake in China - Lugu Lake. In winter, Lugu Lake has a unique charm, with clear blue skies, deep water, yellowing leaves, and flocks of white seagulls, forming a peaceful and beautiful picture. At this time, the lake and mountains are the most charming, and the tourists are the most scarce, and the accommodation** is relatively cheap.
1.The scenery of the lake and mountains, the winter charm of Lugu Lake.
Located at the junction of Sichuan and Yunnan, Lugu Lake is the highest lake in Yunnan Province and the third largest lake in China. The Lake District retains its ancient dwellings and Mosuo style, and its beauty and mystery attracted the recording of "Dear Inn". In winter, the clear blue sky reflects the lake's waters, presenting a serene and dreamy beauty. Visitors can stroll along the lake and feel the tranquility and mystery in the lake and mountains.
2.Transportation strategy, self-driving is the best choice.
For tourists, it is recommended to choose to drive to Lugu Lake, starting from the old town of Lijiang, about 3It takes 5 hours to reach the entrance of the scenic spot. Self-driving is not only convenient and flexible, but also more convenient to get around the Lake District. Personally, I don't need to sign up for a group at all, and I can rent a car for less than 200 yuan a day, so I can explore the beauty of the lake area more freely.
3.Itinerary, arrange at least two days to feel the tranquility and beauty.
In Lugu Lake, it is recommended to arrange at least two days to truly feel the tranquil beauty of the lake and mountains, and after arriving at the scenic spot on the first day, buy tickets and start driving around the lake. Along the way, you'll pass by multiple observation decks, each with a different view, making it a great place to take photos. In the evening, you can choose to stay in several villages along the lake, such as Daluoshui Village or Dazu Village, which have beautiful scenery and convenient meals.
4.Get up close and personal with nature and choose between Lover's Beach or Dazu Pier.
On the second day, you can choose to head to Lover's Beach or Dazu Pier to get in touch with nature by the lake. Lover's Beach offers a sunrise view, while Dazu Pier is a great place to take photos with its brightly coloured pig trough boats docked. Especially in autumn and winter, the leaves of Dazu Pier show a beautiful yellow color, which adds a lot of color.
5.The villages along the lake are the best places to stay.
In Lugu Lake, it is recommended to choose several villages along the lake for accommodation, such as Daluoshui Village or Dazu Village, so that you can not only enjoy the lake and mountains, but also facilitate meals. Dazu Village is part of Sichuan, while Daluoshui Village has a unique bonfire party that makes the night even more wonderful.
Tip: Deal with unpredictable weather.
In winter, the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, and it will look particularly cold without the sun on a cloudy day, so be sure to bring a down jacket, and a skirt will be enough during the day on a sunny day. At the same time, the bonfire party in Da Luoshui Village at night is also a highlight, which should not be missed.
Lugu Lake is a resort worth visiting in winter. The tranquility and beauty of the lake and mountains make people feel like they are in a fairyland. In this mysterious and enchanting lake, you can get in touch with nature and feel a leisurely good time, which will become an unforgettable travel memory.
