Lijiang is a hot tourism destination in all seasons. Apart from the amazing scenery, Lijiang residents are also very friendly. Lijiang has a tradition of hospitality, and the atmosphere seems to have the ability to influence even tourists. People often find that they can easily get into a conversation with others.

Cloudy days are rather rare in Lijiang, and the sunshine in Lijiang is extremely strong. The strong sunshine provides the people with plentiful solar energy. As a result, solar energy water heaters have become very popular here.

However, strong sunshine can also harm the skin. Tourists should use sunscreen to avoid being burnt.

Although the sunshine is very strong and warm, the water in Lijiang is rather cold. The reason why the water is so cold is because the water comes from the Yulong Snow Mountain.

Water from the Yulong Snow Mountain runs through the Old Town of Shuhe through the creeks. The cold water cools the hot air in summer, making it more pleasant.

Many tourists come to Lijiang to relax. Escaping noisy cities, tourists can have a rest and enjoy themselves in the quiet, attractive old towns. They know that Lijiang will never let them down.
