1. When was Old Town of Lijiang included in the World Heritage List:199765438+February?

Lijiang is located in the upper reaches of Jinsha River in Yunnan, with a long history, beautiful scenery and magnificent natural environment. It is the hometown of Naxi nationality, a descendant of the ancient Qiang people. Old Town of Lijiang, with an altitude of 2,400 meters, is the central city of Lijiang Naxi Autonomous County, one of the famous historical and cultural cities in China and a national key scenic spot.

The construction of Lijiang began at the end of Song Dynasty and the beginning of Yuan Dynasty. Until the early years of the Qing Dynasty, Lijiang was ruled by Mu Tusi, the ancestor of the Naxi nationality under the jurisdiction of the central dynasty (founded in 1382). ?

4. Dayan Town, Lijiang, which is surrounded by mountains and waters, has no tall besieged city or spacious avenue, but it is picturesque and shows natural harmony everywhere. Because of the terrain and flowing water, the houses in the town are scattered and undulating. People use wood, stone and mud to build beautiful and applicable houses, which are integrated into the traditions of Han, Bai and Tibetan dwellings and form a unique style. The common local houses are "three squares and one wall". ?

Up to now, there is a hieroglyphic "Dongba" circulating in Lijiang area. This unique script used by Naxi ancestors to record Dongba scriptures is the only living hieroglyph in the world. Today, libraries and museums in China and some European and American countries have collected more than 20,000 Dongba classic ancient books, which have recorded the splendid history and culture of Naxi people for thousands of years.
