If you have an opportunity to visit Lijiang, I suggest making time for the Naxi Ancient Music Ensemble; it is truly an authentic Naxi cultural experience. My family and I find the performances interesting and entertaining. The performances consist of ancient Chinese court music and Naxi (a Yunnan minority) folk songs.
Ancient musical traditions have survived in the Lijiang region because of two reasons: the Lijiang region is relatively isolated, and because of the infusion of Han Chinese culture to the Lijiang region during the Ming Dynasty.
