Before us stood a dazzling formation of performers, dressed in bright traditional attire, dancing to the entrancing sounds of musical instruments echoing through the thin mountain air.

This was an outdoor theatrical performance called Impression Lijiang, which unfolded against the backdrop of China’s famous Jade Dragon Snow Mountain range. And we were lucky enough to witness this cultural spectacle during our hosted stay at Club Med Lijiang recently.
