Recommended by Lonely Planet, and also by numerous Western backpackers who visited the jewel of Yunnan - Old Town of Lijiang. Perfect mix of traditional Naxi and European food (pizza, salads, pasta...) and cold beer. Atmosphere here is non-Chinese, but mostly Naxi with taste of Old Good Europe.
The food here is very good and fairly reasonably priced (given the touristy area it is in), but the drinks are relatively expensive, especially tee.
The world famous Old Town of Lijiang, an UNESCO World Heritage Site, is located in Lijiang City. The Lijiang has a history going back more than 800 years and was once a confluence for trade along the old tea horse road. The Old Town of Lijiang is famous for its orderly system of waterways and bridges. The Old Town of Lijiang differs from other ancient Chinese cities in architecture, history and the culture of its traditional residents the Naxi people.
