This beautiful image of Lijiang's old town was sent by a Chinese postcrsser in Beijing. She wrote that the cobbled streets are paved in five colors of stone but I think they look grand in black and white. The city has an ancient and still working water system. Water is sluiced daily to wash off the streets.
