A Dreamy Getaway to Lugu Lake

#travelinginchina Lugu Lake had always been at the top of my travel wishlist. Finally, I got to visit this magical place. The moment I saw the lake, I was awestruck. Its clear, blue waters sparkled in the sun, and the surrounding mountains, draped in green and crowned with clouds, made for a stunning view. I rented a boat and sailed across the lake. The soft wind on my face carried the fresh smell of nature. The boatman, a kind local, shared stories about the lake's past and the unique matrilineal culture of the Mosuo people. Onshore, I wandered through ancient Mosuo villages. The wooden houses, with their beautiful carvings, were captivating. I was invited into a Mosuo home, where I tasted local treats like roasted potatoes and barley wine. The warmth of the family made me feel at home. At night, I camped by the lake. Lying under the starry sky, I was surrounded by peace, with only the sound of gentle waves. This trip wasn't just a holiday; it was a chance to unwind and connect. Even now, the memories of Lugu Lake stay with me, a reminder of its simple beauty. #travel #trip #localguides #localguides #familytrip
