Pullman Lijiang Resort and Spa

Outside, the Pullman reads as a traditional Naxi village, pagoda angles mirrored in a central pond. Step inside and it flips to cool minimalism, all floor-to-ceiling glass and immaculate white. This is a resort in the foothills near Lijiang, with the snowcapped Jade Dragon Snow Mountain visible from the grounds and upscale villas offering outdoor soaking tubs pointed straight at it. The Mandara spa runs regional treatments, pu-erh tea scrubs among them. A fine place to anchor a Yunnan trip.
