Lugu Lake,2690 metres above sea
level located at the borders between Sichuan and Yunnan Provinces,
covers an area of 50 square kilometers with the average water depth of
45 meters and the transparency 11 meters. In the lake there are five
islands, three peninsulas and a sea- wall islet. Here everything looks
as if it has not been disturbed by human beings at all and still remains
in its primitive state. Boating in the lake, you can feel that the
surface of the water is as smooth as a mirror and the water as blue as
the sky. The slow ¨C canoe in the blue lake, the beautiful Mosuo girls in
their ethnic clothes and the Mosuo folk songs will show you something of
primitive simplicity and peace. Lugu Lake has the fame of a fabled abode
of immortals and ˇ°Plateau Pearl" for its pure and virgin land of natural
landscapes.
 
The Mosuo people living here
still keep their matriarchal society system. The "Axia visiting
marriage'' system (actually no marriage system at all)is called the
fossil for the study of the development of the human being society .The
members of the big matriarchal families live in harmony, love dearly and
care for one an other. The Axia couples live in their own mothers'
houses without a real family life are less burdened economically. They
free themselves from such worries as daily housework, quarrels and the
obligation of a husband-and-wife relationship. Here, a colorful ethnic
custom painting, is an ideal place for traveling, holidays, recuperation
and scientific research. Welcome to the beautiful, mysterious and
romantic "Oriental Women-governed kingdom."
