Lugu Lake is located on the border of Southwest China's Yunnan province and Sichuan province. The lake covers an area of 48.45 square kilometers at an altitude of 2.69 kilometers.

The "walking marriage" practice in the Mosuo community is unique as it gives a woman freedom to choose her lover and ask him to stop seeing her when the relationship is over.

In addition, in a traditional Mosuo family, an uncle takes charge of etiquette, and the mother controls the family's wealth.

Lugu Lake is a mysterious land with charming scenery and a unique matriarchal culture. Encircled by a verdant sea of grass and various wildlife, tourists will enjoy the tranquility when night arrives!
