Mama Naxi/Noxi (can't remember) was kind enough to set us up with a horse trek into the neighboring cliffsides.
Sadly the horses already looked so tired and this was in the morning...
Nonetheless, we all were thrilled by the prospect of a chill horse ride through the wilds of China.
I was more concerned with staying on my horse....
The hills were treacherous but the horses were relatively steady despite the insane incline.
Of course the landscape was absolutely gorgeous.
They also provided a meal of an original hot pot... though it lacked flavor. Still we were happy to get some food.
We were then taken to a lake with horses in the front yard of this boat house type deal.
The sunflowers were huge and were all over the place!
This man acted as our tour guide of the lake. He also was the engine for the boat.
Lots of vegetation and sadly little dead fish that floated along the surface. Saw lots of beautiful dragonflies and other bugs that skittered along the lake.
Last on our day's schedule was a trip to a traditional Naxi village.
Few photos taken because the place was chock full of goods that we all got carried away in bartering.
