Shogunate Liquor Shop
Mu Laoye Liquor is a Lijiang specialty liquor that records and inherits the history and culture of Lijiang for more than 500 years from the late Song Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty.
This wine is the royal wine of the Mu Tusi family. Before Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty implemented land reform in the southwest minority areas, the Mu Tusi family ruled Lijiang for nearly 500 years from the Song Dynasty to the Yongzheng period.
The local specialty buckwheat and the spring water flowing from the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain are both made through secret techniques and are only circulated in Mu Mansion, the official residence of Chief Mu. Even emperors from different dynasties have never heard of it, let alone commented on it.
That’s why it’s called: Jade wine should only be found in Lishui, and it’s rare to smell it elsewhere.
After the fall of Mu, this wine disappeared from people's sight for a while. With the development of Lijiang, especially the prosperity of tourism, the descendants of the Naxi people took the opportunity to show the wisdom of the Naxi people to more people in Mufu and re-established the production line. It took seven years to combine traditional craftsmanship with modern technology to successfully brew the palace jade liquor that combines classicism and fashion - Mu Laoye Wine.

Grand View Garden of Lijiang Ancient Cultural City
Lijiang Old Town is a famous historical and cultural city in China, and the shogunate can be called the Grand View Garden of Lijiang Ancient Cultural City.
The shogunate is a witness to Lijiang’s history and a symbol of the ancient city’s culture. Located in the southwest corner of Lijiang Old Town, it covers an area of ??46 acres and has a total axis length of 369 meters. The entire building complex faces the rising sun from west to east. There is Qinglong Mountain on the left, Hu Mountain on the right, Xuanwu Mountain behind, Turtle Mountain in the southeast, and Snake Mountain in the southeast, guarding the pass. Mufu embraces the ancient city, it is both masculine and surrounded by jade water.
Tusi Mu built a large-scale palace-style complex.
Mu Tusi built large-scale palace-style buildings, such as the three major stone and wood archways, Mujiayuan, conversion hall, Huangyu Pavilion, Sanqing Hall, Guangbi Pagoda, Jingtang, family temple, and Wanjuanshuwu , Nursery Building, etc.
The stone archway in front of the shogunate is made of white marble from the Jinsha River in Huxiatiao. It is 9 meters wide and about 18 meters high. Four stone pillars support the stele, rafters, eaves and square cover on the archway. The plaque is engraved with the words "loyalty and righteousness" given by Qin. This stone-carved building is famous far and wide for its magnificent structure and exquisite carvings. There are folk sayings such as Dali Three Pagoda Temple and Lijiang Stone Archway. Unfortunately, it was demolished during the ten years of the Cultural Revolution.
When Chief Mu built his own palatial wooden mansion, its orientation did not conform to the 1920’s Feng Shui theory
Oriental wood, sun, and wood are in the Dongba religion of the Naxi people It is worshiped among the people and is also a Naxi surname given by the emperor. Therefore, the idea of ??capturing the vitality of wood led the buildings of Mufu to adopt a west-to-east orientation. This ancient city has no walls. It is said that it is because Mu Tusi lives in the city.
Building a city is equivalent to adding a frame to the wooden characters, which is tantamount to trapping the wood.
The shogunate is a witness to Lijiang’s history and a symbol of the ancient city’s culture.
Toast is backed by Lion Rock, and green cypresses are planted all over the mountain.
Today, a large area of ??ancient Berlin still exists on Lion Rock. Lion Rock is one of the twelve scenic spots in Lijiang. In addition to this ancient cypress, a large number of cypress trees planted voluntarily by local people in the 1950s and 1960s have become increasingly lush, forming a lush forest. Looking down at Lion Rock, the rows of tile-roofed houses in the ancient city show a deep blue color that blends in with the sky and the earth, and the vastness is like a huge ink painting.
The palace-style buildings of the Ming Dynasty chieftains are very spectacular. Xu Xiake, a traveler and geographer of the Ming Dynasty, once marveled at the beauty of the palace and planned to become king in the "Diary of a Travel to Yunnan" AD.
In the Ming Dynasty, there were more than a thousand residents in the ancient city, and the residential buildings were quite large-scale. Xu Xiake once described the residential areas in the ancient city of Lijiang at that time. There were tile-roofed houses everywhere, which shows the prosperity of residential buildings.
