A great way to spend your evening in Lijiang is to visit the Naxi Orchestra, playing ancient Chinese and Naxi music on traditional instruments.
Just after checking into our hotel after coming back from the Tiger Leaping Gorge hike, the receptionist advised us to see the Naxi orchestra in the evening. It proved a great advice. When we settled on the first row, the musicians were not in yet, which gave us time to study the little booklet we had been given as our ticket, and which contained some background explanation on the Naxi orchestra. Furthermore, it included an overview of its history with several black and white pictures depicting the orchestra in old days. Above the stage, we saw more black and white pictures, of deceased musicians of the orchestra. Most pictures showed white, long-bearded old men with or without their instruments.
