Lijiang Rooftops
Situated in the deep river-valleys of South West China, close to the borders with Burma and Indochina, the wooden town of Lijiang became a home-from-home to explorers and botanists during the first half of the twentith century. Today, as economic growth boosts national and international tourism, Lijiang is visited by ever more tourists, and its old town is growing to accommodate them.
