Aman Lijiang | A Luxurious Cultural Retreat in China’s Ancient Town

Join me as I take you inside Amandayan, one of the most exclusive luxury resorts in China and part of the renowned Aman family. I stayed here over Christmas with my dad, and it was the perfect mix of relaxation, culture, and beautiful design.

In this video, I’ll walk you through our experience—from traditional courtyard strolls and relaxing tea time overlooking Lijiang Old Town, to fun activities like calligraphy, scented sachet making, and dumpling making on the Winter Solstice. You'll also get a full room tour, local market walk, and taste of delicious Yunnan hotpot with views of Yulong Snow Mountain.
Whether you're planning a trip to Lijiang or just curious about what it's like to stay at Amandayan, this review covers it all with personal stories and travel tips!
