Fire Dance and Muosuo Songs

The only nighttime activity in town is the traditional fire dance, where the people of the town, wearing their traditional costumes, dance around a fire and sing Muosuo songs. It’s fun to watch and worth the 10 RMB entry fee.

Organized Party in Traditional Mosuo Style

Every night, there is an organized party in the traditional Mosuo manner, specifically arranged for tourists. The cost of entry is about 10 yuan, and if you wish to wear a traditional costume, there is an additional 10 yuan fee. These parties are filled with dancing and music, making them the only nighttime activity in Lugu Lake.

Daytime Activities

Take a Walk

One must take a stroll around the lake and through the villages, as you’ll meet great people who are likely to invite you into their homes for food, drink, and conversation. This is an essential way to understand the daily lives of the Mosuo people.

Tibetan Monastery Visit

A great Tibetan monastery sits atop a hill. It is small and only has about five monks living there. The walk to the peak can be a bit strenuous, so it’s not a regular tourist destination. However, once you reach the temple, one of the monks may play a special instrument (like a drum) and sing loudly, making it a memorable experience.

Village Visit

Later that day, you may be invited into a local’s home in one of the nearby villages. The minority people here are isolated from the outside world and are very curious about foreigners, as they may have seen only a few white people in their entire lives. They are great hosts, offering you tea and potatoes.
