Naxi Village











One day we rented bicycles and rode them 40 minutes out of Lijiang to a Naxi village where a large number of Naxi minority people live. We got lots of great pics out there. Here are some women we encountered along the way. One even invited us to her house and provided us with hot tea and snacks. She then proceeded to get out a couple of traditional Naxi outfits and played dress up with Matt and Betina. We got a kick out of the fact that she had a cell phone. Cell phone service there is dirt cheap, and probably much better quality than we have here. Besides seeing people going about their business around the village, we got to witness a large group of ladies dancing together...that was entertaining to see.
