Cast in the shadow of the majestic Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, the setting of the Banyan Tree Lijiang will have you gasping for breath.   

This is a one-of-a- kind escape that more than matches the beauty of its remote location.  A courtyard layout that reflects an age-old imperial palace opens up to an extravagant décor of dark polished woods, rich textiles and streamlined oriental furniture.  Your palatial suite takes its cue from the sweeping roofs of the local Yunnan architecture and embraces you with its fabulous décor of red, gold and black complete with the latest modern gadgetry.  Wake up to the spectacular views and inhale air that’s never felt quite so fresh before bracing yourself for a dip in the plunge pool. 

Spend your days swooning over the views, wandering around the historical Old Town or exploring the magnificent landscape by foot, bike or horseback.  After all that adventure, there’s always time to fit in a massage at the inimitable spa.
