Luoshui Mosuo Village is home to Mosuo people for hundreds of years. The houses are built with wood completely. They are warm in winter but cool in summer. Mosuo people have the unique custom of “walking marriage”. First, if one young boy likes a young girl, he will walk to her and hit her palm with his fingers. If the girl likes him as well, she will hit his palm three times with her fingers. Matriarchy is prevalent at the village. Mothers have the absolute power to decide on anything. When a girl gives birth to a baby, the baby will be brought up in his mother’s family.

At Luoshui Mosuo Village, you will be amazed by the natural beauty of Lugu Lake and snow-covered mountains in the distance. The village is also a paradise for photographers. In addition, you could visit local houses if you are interested to explore more about Mosuo People. In the evening, the villagers will hold a bonfire party. They will dance their own dancing. If you would like to enjoy the sunrise, it is suggested that you stay overnight at one lake view room.
