Superbly located on Lion Hill, above the winding lanes of old town Lijiang. Amandayan is built in the traditional style of the Naxi people with accommodation arranged around tranquil courtyards across several dwellings.
The 35 suites mix contemporary and Chinese styles with stone floors and wooden furniture, much of which is elaborately carved. Many have views over Lijiang towards the surrounding countryside and snow-capped mountains. Facilities include a spa, 20 metre outdoor heated swimming pool and two restaurants.
Setting and service – Amandayan has it all.
Located on a hilltop overlooking the town of Lijiang and 40 minutes from the nearest airport. The train station with excellent connections to both Kunming and Dali is a short 30 minute drive away.

The design and operation of this holiday was excellent and took us to places that we had hardly heard of. A great experience and opportunity to sample " Old China" before it becomes overcrowded. We were very happy with the whole procedure.

Paul put together our trip very quickly, within a month of leaving! He did a great job and we loved the little add ons such as a cookery class and fan making. All of the guides, drivers and vehicles were amazing.
