Reasons to visit

Mufu is a very splendid building. It was originally the Yamen of the Mu clan in Lijiang, equivalent to the "Forbidden City" of the Naxi people. The history here is the development history of the Mu clan in Lijiang. However, most of the buildings were destroyed by the war in the late Qing Dynasty. The stone archway was also destroyed during the "Cultural Revolution". The Mufu, which was rebuilt in 1999, not only reflects the style and temperament of the Central Plains architecture of the Ming Dynasty, but also integrates the craftsmanship of the Bai and Naxi ethnic groups. It is also one of Lijiang's tourist landmarks.
