Ancient Tea Horse Road
Deep in the cobbled lanes of Lijiang, LUX* Tea Horse Road Lijiang is a modern version of old caravanserai when Lijiang once was a staging post on the Ancient Tea Horse Road. Here you can experience the unique culture and architecture of the Naxi people in Lijiang. Wandering around the hotel, you will discover one of China’s most spectacular roads — the Ancient Tea Horse Road. Between the 7th Century and the middle of the 20th Century, one of the longest trade routes transported tea from Yunnan to Tibet. Therefore, the road was known as the Ancient Tea Horse Road. Among the various types of tea, Pu’er Tea is special because of its fermentation. Later, the route came under strict control as the trade of tea for war horses became a measure taken by the Tang Dynasty (618-907) to deal with its neighboring countries on its northwestern border.
