Cowboyish hats for tourists. (Wish you could have seen the "Custer's last stand" hunting knives for sale in Zhongdian.)

The restaurant, the electric bike, the ice cream freezer, and the minority clothing. A total package.

Dolls for sale, representing China's ethnic minorities. The Naxi girl is on the upper shelf, second in from the left.

Lijiang Ba Ba for sale, cooked fresh. One stack is sweet, the other is salty.

Wishing fish.

Bells with the Naxi ancient Dongba pictographic script.

Bells that are boats. Bells that are fish. Buy one for your mother-in-law.

Fresh, hot Ba Ba (both sweet and salty) and flatbread, plus Sha Guo Fan, and Sha Guo Mi Xian. Classic local chow.

Even more wooden ethnic minority dolls.
