AbstractLijiang City is located at 2,400m altitude in the northwest of Yunnan Province, China. Lijiang's old town, with an area of 3.8km 2 and about 25,000 inhabitants, was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List on 6 December 1997 noting in particular that it "possesses an ancient water supply system of great complexity and ingenuity that still functions effectively today."
