The Lijiang's vernacular dwellings are the cultural and living crystallization of the Nahsi people. These dwellings are characterized by simpleness, freshness and natural beauty and are expression of the continuance of the local culture as well as the combination and conflicts of pluralistic cultures. To appreciate the vernacular constructions of Lijiang is just like drinking a cup of old liquor or tasting a cup of cocktail wine.
