Lijiang Nightlife

In ancient China, Dongjing Music was performed during the religious Daoism ceremony. Later this music was being adopted by Scholars and officials as part of their music appreciation and culture. Disciples of Confucius used this kind of music to promote inner peace and harmony within themselves. The Taoists adopted it for their physical and spiritual exercises. This Dongjing music was very popular among the educated elites. During the Jiaqing period (1522-1566 AD) of the Ming Dynasty, the headman of Naxi brought this Dongjing music into Yunnan Province from Nanjing, Fujian and Sichuan. In the late Qing Dynasty, with the spread of western civilization, this Dongjing music almost ceased to exist in central China. Fortunately in the remote and isolated area of southeast China, known as Lijiang, the Naxi people continued to enjoy and appreciate Dongjing music
