Dayan Old Town

Dayan old town was first setup in the 13th century, as the Mu family moved their center from Baisha to the place around Shizi Mountains and built a new town here. Later it became the administrative centre of the Naxi People until today.
Today so many tourists are coming here, that the old town is a bit overloaded. It has been changed a lot, and you can not see its old face any more.
