ShaXi ancient town, YunNan provinceWith Hannah and Ben ...
"So happy we decided to make a quick stop in Shaxi on our way from Dali to Lijiang. This small mountain village is absolutely gorgeous. There are so many fun shops, restaurants, and sites to see. If you are a fan of C-dramas, then you can't miss all the sites from the show Meet Yourself, starring Li Xian and Liu Yifei.
The best way to get to Shaxi is by private car. If you don't know how to hire a car using Chinese apps, there are a lot of people offering driving services from Dali and Lijiang. We asked at our homestay in Dali and they gave us several recommendations. You can visit most of the old town in just one day but staying the night is recommended."

"Halfway between Dali and Lijiang lies an ancient town that is more intimate, artistic, and far less commercialized than those two cities. This is Shaxi. Tucked away in Jianchuan County, Shaxi Ancient Town is beloved by artists and craftsmen from all over China but is still relatively unknown to international visitors. I can confidently say this town is a must-visit in Yunnan. We'll experience the local tie-dyeing, learn about the history of the Ancient Tea Horse Road, and explore the arts and crafts of this town. Join us on our trip to this charming little gem."
