You step out of an air-conditioned van into a cool, echoing chamber where colored lights trace the ribs of limestone—Reed Flute Cave greets you like an underground city carved over millennia. Later, a cable car lifts you above tea terraces and karst pinnacles on Yao Mountain; the wind seems determined to push you toward the summit view. By midday the Lijiang River slows in front of Daxu Old Town, where bluestone streets and wooden storefronts keep the market rhythms of Ming-era commerce alive.
