"Color", autumn in western Yunnan. (Tengchong, Ruili, Mangshi, Yuanmou soil forest 8-day free travel strategy in Yunnan)

The autumn colors of the land of China are fascinating. . . . .

In order to pursue these beautiful autumn colors, I have traveled thousands of miles

Hiking Kanas in northern Xinjiang---Hemu,

Climbed the Daocheng in western Sichuan - the sea of milk in Aden,

Ascend the core of Miyaluo---Bipenggou,

Set foot on the last pure land of human beings---Dangling in western Sichuan.

Etc., etc.

The "color" of the colorful beach in Burqin, northern Xinjiang.

The "color" of Kanas in northern Xinjiang.

When hiking in Hemu, northern Xinjiang, I passed through the barren mountains and ridges, and I captured the "color".

The "color" of Yan'an Yucha Grand Canyon.

The "color" of Tengchong, Yunnan.

The "color" of Mangshi, Yunnan.

I will continue to pursue the autumn colors of the great rivers and mountains of the motherland.

Since I hiked Kanas---Hemu in northern Xinjiang in 2012 and tasted the beautiful autumn scenery in western China, my body and mind have been completely "dyed", and I can no longer stop my footsteps, as if from A "travel idiot" has evolved into a "sexy" person.

This autumn, I will continue to look for the alluring "color" of the land of China. I heard that the Ginkgo Village in Tengchong, Yunnan Province is very beautiful at the end of November. Just as the annual leave is not used up, I will go to Tengchong, and then go to see the autumn colors in my dream. , of course, there are ancient towns, volcanoes, hot seas, golden pagodas, etc. that are not to be missed.

embark on a journey

On November 20th, embark on a journey full of longing. The Shanghai-Kunming flight took off on time at 13:30, and the journey was far away. After a long flight of more than 3 hours, the luggage was picked up at 17:00, and then transferred to Tengchong. While waiting to board the plane, an airport staff member saw that we seemed to be traveling, so he recommended Tengchong chartered car tour. He kept flickering that after arriving in Tengchong, he would pick up the airport for free, and that he would go to Gingko Village, Volcanic Geological Park, etc. tomorrow, and the cost was 200 One day, when you arrive in Tengchong tonight, there will be a driver to pick you up, which is much more convenient. A lady next to me who is also traveling in Tengchong told me that the price is not expensive. She has already booked the same itinerary a few days ago, and it costs 260 yuan. I originally wanted to charter a car to visit these scenic spots. I arrived in Tengchong at night again tonight, and I didn’t have a reservation for accommodation. I thought the price was not expensive, so I decided to charter their car.

I arrived in Tengchong at 8:00 p.m. After picking me up, the driver took me to a private hotel he knew in Tengchong City, 130 yuan per night. The boss said that there was only the last one, and I couldn’t bargain. I saw that the room was very big, and there were three A bed, also very clean, no longer look for it, stay here. And agreed with the driver to leave at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. After arranging accommodation, I went out to eat a plate of Tengchong delicacies --- big rescue, not bad.

Jiangdong Ginkgo Village, Volcanic Geological Park, Columnar Joints, Heiyu River Park, Beihai Wetland Park, Heshun Ancient Town

D2.

After 8 o'clock in the morning, the sky had just brightened. I told the driver that today I will go to Gingko Village, Volcanic Geopark, Columnar Festival and Heiyu River, and finally send it to Heshun Ancient Town. The driver replied, Ginkgo Village is too far away, and it costs 300 yuan to go to Ginkgo Village, and I can’t go any less. I got on a thief boat and agreed to pay 200 yuan at Kunming Airport, but it became 300 yuan when I arrived in Tengchong? I don't know the place of life, what should I do? Where can I find a car temporarily? let's go! When you go out, you will inevitably be slaughtered. Traveling is relaxing and comfortable, and the smell of copper should not affect your happy mood. If you travel to Tengchong in the future, please learn from my lesson and don't be fooled while waiting at Kunming Airport.

The first stop, Jiangdong Ginkgo Village --- known as the first village of Ginkgo in China. A small village, famous for its ginkgo trees. In recent years, it has started to buy tickets for 40 yuan/person, 36 yuan/person for online ticket purchases, and 15 yuan/person for round trip by electric frequency car. In fact, if you don’t take a battery car, it only takes about 10 minutes to walk in.

Some guides say that Ginkgo Village is very small, and one hour is enough; others say that Ginkgo Village has more people than leaves, and the scenery is average. When I was there, I was amazed. Ginkgo Village is very beautiful and worth seeing, but this time I have regrets. The small ginkgo trees outside the village are cute and yellow, while the leaves of the big ginkgo trees in the village are only yellow. Half of them are still mainly green.

The "color" of Tengchong. The small ginkgo trees outside Ginkgo Village are lovely yellow.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, the small ginkgo trees outside the Ginkgo Village are lovely yellow.

In the blue sky, without a trace of white clouds, a small ginkgo tree stands proudly.

The ginkgo tree outside the village seems to have opened a smiling face to welcome tourists.

Walking into Ginkgo Village, the ginkgo trees in the village are another scene.

Compared with the small ginkgo trees outside the village, the big ginkgo trees in the village are not so yellow.

According to the original plan, I wanted to go one week later, because I saw a guide to go to Ginkgo Village on National Day. From the uploaded photos, the leaves are a little yellowed. It has been more than a month. I am afraid that the leaves will be at the end of November. After dropping it, it was a week earlier, and unfortunately left regrets. If the whole city is full of golden armor, then Ginkgo Village will be a fairy tale world, which is fascinating.

In Ginkgo Village, there is a tall and towering ginkgo tree in the courtyard of every household.

Those senior beauties rushed to leave their shadows without losing the opportunity.

Ginkgo Avenue in the village.

Another small farmyard. The aborigines in Ginkgo Village are very friendly. When tourists enter their small courtyard to take pictures, they will not drive you away, and they will not charge you. The harmonious Ginkgo Village, like it!

This thousand-year-old ginkgo tree is full of green.

It is also a small farmyard with tall ginkgo trees.

Villages, trees and people are even more beautiful.

Accidental coincidence--an aunt in Ginkgo Village was passing by with a burden, and met a beautiful woman unexpectedly, not deliberately pursuing it, absolutely.

Villages, trees and people are even more beautiful.

There is a charge for taking photos with the senior and third senior brothers. . .

"Scattered into mud and ground into dust, only the fragrance remains the same."

What a big tree - a small private courtyard in Ginkgo Village.

The "color" of Ginkgo Village.

In fact, Ginkgo Village is not small, but also very large. I entered the village at 9:00 a.m. and wandered around the village for more than three hours. While wandering around the village, an innkeeper said to me, "This is the most beautiful time for Ginkgo Village. At this time last year, the leaves had already fallen. If you want to really set foot on the luxuriant and golden ground, you must Those who wait patiently do not wait for one or two days to see it, that requires great luck.” Hearing his words seemed to give me great comfort, but the regret was greater than the comfort. Leave Ginkgo Village at 12:40 noon and go to the next stop.

The second stop, Volcano Geopark, tickets are 35 yuan/person, (including columnar joints, Heiyuhe scenic spot) online shopping is cheaper by one or two yuan, which doesn't make much sense.

Volcano Geopark, main attractions: Dakong Mountain, Xiaokong Mountain, hot air balloons and a museum. Hot air balloons are only available in the morning, and they stop taking off after 11:00 noon, and the operation ends. I arrived at the Geopark in the afternoon and did not see the hot air balloon. The hot air balloons in the park are quite famous. It is said that there are a lot of tourists queuing up to take them. The business is booming and the supply is in short supply.

It is said on the Internet that the Volcanic Geopark is one of the four major volcanic groups in my country. How many volcanic bodies, craters, and volcanic piles are there in the park? The details, I'm here to travel.

As soon as they entered the gate of the park, caravan staff came forward to sell horseback riding, saying that it would cost 100 yuan to ride to the top of Dakong Mountain. Looking up, this mountain is about the same height as Sheshan in Shanghai. It is not scary, but it is a bit high. Because I love mountaineering, I have strained my calf muscle, which has not been cured so far. I have repeatedly confirmed with the groom that 100 yuan can reach the top of the mountain. I think this price is acceptable, and I counter-offer to 80 yuan. I have encountered various horse riding scams before. , I was not cheated this time, and it cost 80 yuan to ride a horse to the top of Dakong Mountain.

The main road of the Volcano Geopark, the mountain in front is Dakong Mountain. The small ginkgo trees here are also lovely yellow.

A pine tree on the top of Dakong Mountain.

On the top of Dakong Mountain, there is a large crater. Because the surrounding area is covered with trees and weeds, the crater can’t be seen clearly. If you walk around the crater, you can’t see anything famous. The whole park is not very big. Generally speaking, if you have good physical strength, you can climb the Dakong Mountain, and those with less physical strength can climb the Xiaokong Mountain without taking a hot air balloon. You can visit the entire scenic spot in more than an hour. Return to the parking lot at 2:00 p.m., and drive to today's location in 10 minutes

The third stop --- columnar joints.

Columnar joints - a peculiar geological phenomenon.

Overlooking the columnar joints, there are 3 viewing platforms (no need to check in the ticket), and you can watch this peculiar natural phenomenon from different angles. After finishing the columnar joints, walk directly from the viewing platform for two minutes to enter today's

The fourth stop --- Heiyuhe Park (requires ticket inspection, don't forget to save the ticket).

Entering Heiyuhe Park from the columnar joint viewing platform is all downhill, saving effort. Don’t forget to tell the driver to wait in the parking lot at the foot of the mountain. This arrangement saves time and effort, and you don’t have to go back.

Go down from the ticket gate to the bottom of the mountain and walk a short distance, you can watch the columnar joints at close range, and then return to the original road instead of going uphill, go forward along the flat road, most of them are downhill, there are several points along the way, the scenery Yes, go slowly and savor slowly. The Heiyu River Scenic Area is relatively larger, and the whole journey takes about 2 hours.

A view of Heiyuhe Park. This scene is a bit similar to the Baishuitai Scenic Spot in Shangri-La. Because I can't find a good angle, I can't take pictures of that taste. If you can find a suitable angle to watch this scene, it will be very beautiful. From this perspective, I can only say SOSO.

Heiyu River.

There are dots of macaques in Heiyuhe Park.

Macaques in Heiyuhe Park.

The drunken pears sold by ordinary people in Heiyuhe Park cost 6 yuan and 4 pieces. A very special kind of pear. It smells like wine and is so tender that you can eat it with the skin on. This is the first time I have eaten this kind of pear with wine flavor. I like it very much. After passing this village, there will be no such shop. , In the following journey, I did not see this kind of pear again. Later, someone told me that there are no pears that smell of wine, but they are soaked in wine, and it is not known whether it is right or wrong. I really like this pear, it's delicious.

Exit Heiyuhe Park at 4:10, on the way to Heshun Ancient Town, pass by a scenic spot - Beihai Wetland Park, tickets are 100 yuan per person. I once saw a travel note written by a local in Yunnan, complaining that the entrance fee for this wetland park is too expensive, and I can be satisfied by looking at it by the side of the road. I adopted the suggestion of the travel note, and the driver took me to a wetland viewing platform, which was built by the common people. , the fee is 10 yuan.

From this platform built by the common people, it is very beautiful to look down at the wetland from a high position and backlight.

It is very beautiful to look at the wetland from a high position and backlight.

Beihai Wetlands.

After seeing the periphery of Beihai Wetland Park, I also passed the Tengchong Shili Lotus Scenic Spot mentioned in many travel notes on the way. Because the season has passed, the lotus has already withered and there is no scenery to see.

Arrive at today's destination - Heshun Ancient Town at 5:00 pm.

I remember that many years ago, my favorite CCTV 4 once had a selection program of China's charming ancient towns. Heshun Ancient Town was rated as the top 10 charming ancient towns. Since then, the name Heshun has been deeply imprinted on me. In my mind, today I will see her true face.

Many people say that in Heshun Ancient Town, you don’t need to buy tickets to enter the town, no, it’s not what it used to be. . . Now you have to buy a ticket to enter the ancient town, 80 yuan per person, and it is overcrowded. The staff in the scenic spot don’t get off work until 8 or 9 o’clock in the evening. When you first arrive, you don’t want to buy a ticket. difficulty. The driver took us into the ancient town from the side gate of the parking lot, exempting the 80 yuan/person ticket fee and paying the farewell.

Carrying a big luggage bag to the ancient town, I ran into an aboriginal inn aunt on the way and asked me if I wanted to stay? You can go to his house to have a look, 100 yuan / day, yesterday I called several Heshun Inns, wanting to book their inns, the answer is that they are full, I can’t help but feel a little worried, won’t you sleep on the street? The fact is that such worries are superfluous. The wooden signboards with houses today can be seen everywhere in the ancient town. Of course, in such a hot ancient town, don't expect much from a 100 yuan inn, as long as it is clean and has hot water for bathing. I asked the proprietress to change a set of clean bed covers. I was satisfied. I stayed for 2 days and was very satisfied. She also helped us buy 2 discount tickets for the Hot Sea Scenic Area, tickets + hot spring + big rolling pot bait silk, the original price is 288 Yuan/person, discount ticket 258 yuan/person, and it is recommended that there is still time today to go to the Thousand-Handed Avalokitesvara in the ancient town, a free scenic spot.

I walked as soon as I said, asking questions as I walked, and I found Avalokitesvara after walking for more than an hour.

The farmland at the foot of the ancient town.

The Cun's Ancestral Hall in Heshun Ancient Town is free to enter, but this ancestral hall has become a shopping spot selling jade and jade, so there is no need to buy tickets.

The main layout of Heshun Ancient Town is: two main streets run east and west. Numerous small streets run south and north. The picture above shows a small street running south and north.

Walking to this Zhang's ancestral hall, it is not far from Avalokitesvara.

Thousand-handed Avalokitesvara ancient tree group, does it look like the Thousand-handed Avalokitesvara, which has some meaning. Walking and asking from the inn, it took me more than an hour to get here, and of course I saw a lot of other scenery along the way.

On the way back to the inn, I came across Mom’s Taste restaurant. I waited in line for an hour to get my meal. I ordered 3 dishes, all of which were delicious. So many diners waited tirelessly, which showed that this restaurant is an absolute internet celebrity.

Mom's Taste Restaurant.

Mom's Taste Signature Dish - Lemon Fish. I had already eaten a small piece before I remembered to take a picture.

Mama's Taste Signature Dish - Black Chicken Soup. delicious. . . . .

Wild mushrooms with tofu, quite spicy.

Three dishes, more than 100 points, not expensive, full of water and food. This restaurant has delicious dishes and good service. It must be praised. Waiting in line for an hour is worth it.

Back at the inn after 9 o'clock, I quickly took a shower and went to bed. Today I walked more than 35,000 steps a day. Tired!

Today's Raiders.

It cost an extra 100 yuan to charter a car today. If you have friends who are going to Tengchong in the future, don’t listen to those airport staff fooling you when you are waiting at Kunming Airport. There is an airport bus at Tengchong Airport, the price is 10 yuan to downtown Tengchong, you can live in the urban area, if you want to live in Heshun Ancient Town, transfer to bus No. 6 and go directly to the ancient town.

of Tengchong accommodation

In the urban area of Tengchong, there are a lot of private inns. For the student party and poor tourists, the average inn booked online is less than 100 yuan, and it is more than 50 yuan. If the economy is affluent, there are also good hotels. You can search it with your mobile phone.

If you book in advance in Heshun Ancient Town, you will encounter a situation like mine --- full of guests. When you really arrive in Heshun Ancient Town, you don't have to worry about not having any accommodation. Today, wooden signs with houses can be seen everywhere. In the current ancient town, it is quite common for outsiders to borrow a room to open an inn. The price is more than 130 yuan. It is recommended to live in the inn opened by the locals. They will pick you up outside the gate of the scenic spot according to your request, waiving 80 yuan Tickets, hotels opened by outsiders, they are not willing to pick you up outside the gate of the scenic spot. I stayed in the Meiting Courtyard. The location is quite good. It is at most 100 meters away from the entrance of the scenic spot. The proprietress can help you buy discounted tickets for Atami and other scenic spots, and help you introduce chartered cars. If you have any travel requirements, you can do it Ask her, an enthusiastic proprietress, aunt, recommends that this Meiting small courtyard is suitable for the student party and the poor party, and the wealthy local tyrants can find other high-end ones.

transportation.

Jiangdong Ginkgo Village---November and early December, these two months must be clocked in, even if the leaves are green, Ginkgo Village is very beautiful, I think so. At present, there is no direct bus, and only taxis or chartered cars are available to go there. Tickets are 40 yuan, and online shopping is 36 yuan.

There are many tourists in Ginkgo Village. I like this small rural village very much. There is a tall ginkgo tree in every small courtyard of every household in the village. Many senior beauties take the trouble to pose and take pictures in these small farmyards.

Volcanic Geopark, Columnar Joints, Heiyuhe Park, one ticket for the three places, 35 yuan, 1 yuan discount for online shopping, which is of little significance. Tengchong Passenger Station has CMB direct access to the Volcanic Geopark. If you live in Heshun Ancient Town, take the No. 6 bus out of the ancient town, and then transfer to CMB at Tengchong Passenger Station to go directly to the Volcanic Geopark. I didn't see any buses or taxis when I went to Columnar Joint and Heiyuhe Park, most of them were chartered cars.

Special Note

Go to the Volcanic Geopark, Columnar Joints, and Heiyuhe Park. The three places are one ticket. First visit the Volcanic Geopark, then Columnar Joints, and finally Heiyuhe Park. Go to Heiyuhe Park and walk from the columnar joints to the ticket gate for 2 or 3 minutes. Entering Heiyuhe Park from this place is all downhill, saving time and effort and not going back. If you go downhill and then enter Heiyuhe Park, you have to go uphill , and must go back to the way, not only repeated but also tiring!

If you want to take a hot air balloon in the Volcano Geopark, you must go in the morning, and the lift-off will stop after 11:30.

Beihai Wetland Park --- I think it is a bit like the Namtso Grassland in Shangri-La. It has grass, water, and tidal flats. It is very beautiful, but compared with Namtso, it is of course much inferior. If you have time and interest, you can buy a ticket for 100 If you go in for a tour, you can also take a boat to explore in depth. Of course, you need to buy another ticket for the boat. If you are like me, it is not bad to find a viewing platform. Because the Beihai Wetland is passing by, the specific traffic is ominous.

suggestion

Jiangdong Ginkgo Village, Volcano Geopark, Columnar Joints, Heiyuhe Park, Beihai Wetland Park, chartered cars for these attractions are the best choices.

Reason 1: In terms of time, it is just right to visit the above-mentioned scenic spots in one day, the schedule is full, and it is enough.

Reason 2: These places are all attractions that must be clocked in when traveling to Tengchong. It is definitely not enough to take the bus for one day. If you still want to take a hot air balloon, it will take 2 days to take the bus.

Reason 3: The chartered car fee is not expensive. The general asking price is 260 yuan a day, and the counter-offer is 200 yuan. Some drivers also accept it. If there are 4 people, 50 to 60 yuan per person, I think it is acceptable. After all, chartered cars will be much more comfortable, so as not to waste time waiting for the car with luggage and changing cars.

In Heshun Ancient Town, it is very convenient to ask the innkeeper to contact you for a chartered car or to carpool. I still prefer to charter a car for the above-mentioned attractions, of course, self-driving is more beautiful.

besides

If you charter a car, be sure to tell the driver how many scenic spots to go to, otherwise the driver will not take you to Columnar Joint and Heiyuhe Park. The lady I mentioned above was waiting for the plane in Kunming. I met her again in Ginkgo Village. She went to the Volcanic Geological Park first. The chartered driver did not take her to the Columnar Joints and Heiyuhe Park, so she must be in advance. Make it clear to the driver!

In addition, after watching the columnar joints, enter Heiyuhe Park from here. It is all downhill, saving effort. Don’t forget to tell the driver to wait in the parking lot at the foot of the mountain. This arrangement saves time and effort, and you don’t have to go back. .

The gentle sky just lit up at 7:30. Walking in the ancient town where tourists are still sleeping in the early morning, you can find a short period of cleanliness. You can walk to the Wild Duck Lake and have a rough taste of the lakeside scenery.

Heshun Ancient Town in the morning.

Heshun Ancient Town in the morning. This street is the main road running east and west.
Because it was still early, it was hard to see the breakfast shop, so I accidentally found a breakfast restaurant, and ordered two portions of Tengchong’s must-eat dilute soybean powder, 10 yuan per serving, a plate of Dajiujia 30 yuan, a total of 50 yuan, delicious, It is delicious, especially Dajiujia, which is more than twice as delicious as the one in the city on the first night. It is worthy of Tengchong cuisine. The dilute soybean powder and Dajiujia are very delicious, but the price is really too expensive! No wonder the price is expensive, tourist attractions, expensive is inevitable.

Just these 3 small dishes, 50 yuan, especially for this big rescue, the quantity is so small, it is too expensive.

After breakfast, walk out of the ancient town and head to Rehai Scenic Area.

While waiting for the bus, I saw a Shenyang couple in their 50s. They also went to Atami and called a car through Didi. For taxis, it costs 50 yuan without a meter from Heshun Ancient Town to Rehai Scenic Area, and Didi is 10 yuan cheaper than taxis.

Entering the Hot Sea Scenic Area at 10:00 in the morning, before entering the gate of the scenic area, I saw a thick white mist in the air, steaming hot, and a warm current surged into my heart. Stepping into the scenic spot, a strange flower attracted me deeply. It is the flower of a thousand-year-old cycad tree, a rare cycad tree blooming.

The millennium iron tree bloomed.

Going forward, the waterfall with dense fog flows down three thousand feet.

Then there is a long downhill road, down the slope, one hot spring after another, which is dizzying.

Hot springs.

A steaming park, such a park, may be the only one in China.

Well water does not violate river water.

Below is the surging hot sea, above which stands a well, the water of which does not interfere with the water of the river.

The famous beauty pool hot spring.

After walking for an hour along the way, I wondered, why didn't I see the hot sea boiling pot that everyone uploaded? Am I going the wrong way? There is only one way, you can't go wrong. Until approaching the exit, I finally saw the iconic scenic spot Atami Hot Pot.

Atami Park's iconic attraction - Atami Big Boiling Pot. It seems to have become a distribution center for tourists, and there is an endless stream of people.

The temperature of the spring water in this big boiling pot is 99 degrees all year round. Many tourists with eggs cook eggs in the small hot spring pool next to the big boiling pot. The scenic spot has uniform regulations that only boil eggs here, and other hot spring pools are forbidden to cook eggs. , it takes 20 minutes to boil the eggs. There are also many tourists here to use this natural hot spring water to soak their feet. It is cheap, high quality and low price. The scenic spot just takes advantage of the nature bestowed by God to make money without cost, which kills two birds with one stone.

Many tourists soak their feet next to the hot sea hot pot.

I bought a joint ticket for Atami Scenic Area, tickets + Yugu Hot Spring + Big Rolling Pot Restaurant Yusi. After the sightseeing in Atami Park, Yugu Hot Spring is at the exit. When I walked into the hot spring, I enjoyed a pure natural hot spring.

Feeling a bit hungry after soaking in the hot spring? At the end there will be a simple free buffet. Although there are not many varieties, it is very nutritious and healthy according to today's buzzwords. There are boiled potatoes, boiled taro, boiled peanuts, hot spring eggs, pumpkin porridge, etc., all of which are coarse grains. Not very nutritious!

After 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I walked to the parking lot of Rehai Scenic Area, and there happened to be a special tourist bus, 5 yuan per person, directly to the Memorial Hall and Cemetery of the National War in Tengchong City. Tickets are free with ID cards.

Enter the National Memorial Hall at 3:00 pm. The hall is tall and majestic. It records in detail that the Chinese Expeditionary Army went through hardships and overcame unimaginable inhuman life. They fought against the invasion of Japanese devils for the motherland and the people. Today’s happy life is really true. It didn't come easily. Every tour guide here is very emotional and wonderful.

Hall of Remembrance Hall.

Turn left from the National War Cemetery and walk about 100 meters. It is the only waterfall in a city in China --- Dieshuihe Waterfall Park. Tickets are 10 yuan.

Dieshuihe Waterfall, it was 4 o'clock in the afternoon when this photo was taken, half of the waterfall was covered by the shadow of the tree, leaving a gap.

Come out of Dieshuihe Waterfall Park, and walk for 10 minutes to the No. 6 bus stop, which leads directly to Heshun Ancient Town.

Back at the Guzhen Inn at 5 o’clock, and continued to wander in the ancient town for more than an hour. I accidentally saw a restaurant——Pin Tengchong, another popular restaurant. I queued for more than half an hour to be seated and ordered the signature dish. Slices of beef, braised pork knuckle, delicious. This restaurant also has a signature dish, which is a must-eat dish for locals in Tengchong during the Chinese New Year—earth pot. I wanted to try it, but it is authentic only if you order it 3 hours in advance. up.

A good restaurant must be praised! recommend. recommend.

Atami Park --- a must-visit place in Tengchong, a different tourist check-in place, the hot springs here are among the best in the country. The single ticket for the park is 50 yuan/person, and the joint ticket is 288 yuan/person, including tickets, a bowl of rice noodles at the Big Rolling Pot Restaurant, and Yugu Hot Spring.

Tour time, 2 hours without soaking in hot springs is enough. It takes a long time to soak in hot springs. It is not easy to go to Tengchong, so you have to enjoy it!

The owner of the ancient town inn can get a discounted ticket of 258 yuan per person. I think the price is acceptable. The hot springs in Atami are the best in China, and the quality of the spring water is high-quality. It is worth spending this little money. There is also a hot spring in the park---beautiful pool, the water quality is also top-notch, it is a hotel, the price of the hotel is expensive, in comparison, the 258 yuan package is much cheaper.

Atami Park Transportation

From Heshun Ancient Town to Atami, the transportation is very convenient, chartered cars are too wasteful, there are two bus lines:

The sky is slightly bright, and I can't wait to go out. The landlord said that the scenery of Wild Duck Lake in the early morning is attractive, so go early to try it. When you come to the lake, layers of mist slowly float on the surface of the wild duck lake, like a fairyland, like a dream. There are thousands of ancient towns in the land of China, Heshun Ancient Town is unique, one of the top ten charming ancient towns, and I think the morning view of Yeya Lake is also one of the charms.

The most important scenic spot in Heshun Ancient Town - the library, you can enter with a ticket.

Caravan Museum - enter with tickets. In the early morning, the staff has not yet gone to work, free of charge.

Before I knew it, the clock had pointed to 10 o'clock. I received a call from the old Shenyang couple who carpooled with me to Atami yesterday, saying that they hoped to go to Ruili with me. Time to move on to the next stop.

Tengchong---Ruili, the bus is 80 yuan. The whole journey is 3 hours.

After 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I arrived in Ruili smoothly and stayed at Ruisha Hot Spring Hotel. I booked online for 188 yuan/night, including breakfast for two people and free outdoor hot spring. It is a pretty good hotel. The room is big, clean and tidy. I like it. I heard later that, The location of this hotel is a bit out of the way.

After settling into the accommodation, the four of them walked for 20 minutes to reach Ruili River Square, where they stood by the river to relax.

Tomorrow's itinerary is Wanding, Moli Yudren Waterfall, Single Tree Forest, Jiele Jinta. The guides I’ve seen say that there are some people arriving along the way, but when I inquired about it, it’s not what it used to be, and the people who made noodles have long been eliminated. The 4 of us decided to charter a car for a tour. We asked many taxis, and the asking price was more than 500 yuan. Finally, we found a female taxi driver and asked for 400 yuan. We decided to hire her taxi and agreed to arrive at the wine shop at 8:15 tomorrow morning. pick up station.

Based on the principle of first getting far and then getting closer, the taxi arrived at the hotel after 8 o'clock, and arrived at the first stop, Wanding, at 9 o'clock.

Wanding National Port.

The Wanding Bridge on the China-Myanmar border. Across the bridge is Myanmar. Free to visit, no tickets, tour time 15 minutes.

Wanding---Chinese Expeditionary Army Burma Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall, you need to buy a joint ticket to enter the museum, we didn't go in.

The statue of the great patriotic overseas Chinese Tan Kah Kee in the Memorial Park of Nanqiao Mechanics Returning to Anti-Japanese War. This park is on the top of a hill, you can drive up to the gate of the park, the scenery is good. It takes about 20 minutes to drive up to visit. No tickets, free.

Wanrui Old Suspension Bridge

Wanrui Old Suspension Bridge, which was completed and opened to traffic in 1962, bears the main responsibility of Ruili's external traffic and cargo transportation, and has played an important role in promoting Ruili's economic development. Made a huge contribution and is now deprecated.

Wanding is relatively remote. As far as Ruili tourism is concerned, it is a place that can be visited or not.

The second stop - Moli Yulin Waterfall, the largest scenic spot in today's itinerary, is also an important scenic spot in Ruili, and a place that must be checked in. Tickets are 35 yuan/person.

Stepping into the gate of the park is a glittering golden pagoda. According to reports, there is a footprint of the Buddha Lord Sakyamuni in the pagoda. Is it really the footprint of the Buddha? I DO NOT KNOW.

The golden pagoda at the entrance to Morley Rain Park.

Morley Yulin Park was originally a virgin forest, with pleasant air in the mountains, along a small stream upstream, without the fatigue of climbing

A scene of Moli---Eight Treasure Tree King. This is the largest eight-treasure tree in the area, with a diameter at breast height of 6 meters, and is known as the king of eight-treasure trees.

A huge banyan tree gradually forms a forest because of its intricate and huge root system, so it is called a forest of unique trees.

A single tree forms a forest.

A single tree forms a forest. There is also a forest of single trees in Xishuangbanna, which is larger and more spectacular.

A single tree forms a forest----a tree that grows horizontally is known as a wonder in the world.

A very small park, here is the main settlement area of the Dai and Jingpo people, 20 minutes is enough to visit. Next, go to the nearest scenic spot to downtown Ruili

The fourth stop - Sister Le Quinta, ticket 5 yuan / person.

Le Quinta

Le Quinta
I think the so-called Jiele Jin Pagoda is actually a unique house of the Dai people --- a house. A very small scenic spot surrounded by iron fences, the entrance fee is 5 yuan, not to save 5 yuan, it is not very interesting to think about it, so I took a few photos outside and retreated.

After visiting today’s scheduled itinerary, I saw that the time is still early and it’s just over 2 pm. It’s too early to go back to the hotel. I decided to complete another scenic spot and go to One Village and Two Kingdoms, but the driver disagreed because the one village and two countries belonged to the opposite Direction, you must add money, at least 50 yuan more.

One Village Two Kingdoms----Ruili's business card, less than one village and two countries is equivalent to not going to Ruili, the ticket is 30 yuan/person.

Some guides say that One Village and Two Kingdoms is just a gimmick, a bluffing scenic spot, and you can finish shopping in half an hour. My answer is: no.

I think One Village and Two Kingdoms are very beautiful, especially the reflection of the red pagoda, which is both exotic and vivid, very beautiful. One Village, Two Kingdoms is Ruili's business card. If you report to a group travel agency to travel to Ruili, it is a one village, two countries, and you will not go to other places. When I was in Heshun Ancient Town, I met a few Shanghainese who said that they would charter a car from Heshun Ancient Town to Ruili for a day, and visit the two places of Yizhai Erguo and Huasha Village for 800 yuan. It can be seen how famous One Village and Two Kingdoms are in Ruili!

It was past 3:00 when we arrived at Yizhai and Erguo. The driver said he would give you an hour at most, because the taxi was driven by two people, and she had to hand over the taxi. We seized the time and spent an hour to visit all the scenic spots in a hurry, and to visit one village and two countries in one hour, but we were still a bit rushed in time.

The entrance of One Village and Two Kingdoms Scenic Area.

Burmese beauties with crock pots on their heads attract tourists to take group photos for 10 yuan.

Personally, I think this area is the most beautiful place in the entire Yizhai and Erguo scenic spot. The natural scenery and cultural landscape are organically combined, as if you are in Angkor Wat in Cambodia and you are going abroad. . . .

Blue sky, white clouds, green mountains, green water, and exotic red brick towers, isn't it beautiful? I always like it! I compare this place to the most beautiful place in Ruili.

Living in a "foreign land" with two countries in one village.

There are many wells in one village and two countries, and there are too many senior beauties. If you want to take a picture of an empty scene, there is absolutely no chance.

One tower protects two countries.

The dragon of one village and two kingdoms blesses Buddhism and Taoism.

I was deeply impressed by the natural scenery of One Village and Two Kingdoms.

Back at the hotel at 5 o’clock, I accidentally found a snack street. It was very popular. Many handsome men and beauties gathered here. I ordered the famous roasted pork belly in western Yunnan, Pao Luda, Vietnamese small intestine powder and two bowls of ear shreds. It tasted good. , well fed.

snack block.

Pao Ruda, Vietnamese small intestine powder, tastes very good.

Grilled pork belly, I saw people eating this barbecue in several places, so I also ordered one, it was so-so.

With enough water and food, I went back to the hotel on foot, soaked in a hot spring comfortably, washed away the fatigue of the day, and enjoyed it. My mantra came again "travel is really happy"!

Today's Raiders

one. Wanding---the farthest from Ruili City, a very small town, not much to see. When you arrive in Ruili, you will regret not coming to Wanding. Coming to Wanding is meaningless, and the transportation is inconvenient. You can only take a taxi or charter a car.

two. Moli Yulin--the largest scenic spot in Ruili, since you come to Ruili, Moli Yulin is not to be missed. I didn't see a bus, so I took a Didi taxi, it shouldn't be very expensive. Tickets are 35 yuan/person.

three. There are only trees in the forest, a very small park, and the ticket is 15 yuan/person. There is a big tree growing horizontally, known as the wonder of the world, and there are many peacocks in the garden. It is quite close to downtown Ruili, and can be reached by shared bicycles.

Four. Sister Le Quinta, a smaller attraction, tickets 5 yuan / person. There is no need to buy a ticket to enter, just look outside, it is clear at a glance, and the shared bicycle arrives.

five. One Village, Two Kingdoms, Ruili's business card, the natural scenery and the cultural landscape blend together, with an exotic style, very beautiful, tourists who come to Ruili must check in, and the ticket is 30 yuan per person.

I have seen some guides complain that one village and two countries are just a gimmick, a bluffing scenic spot, and you can finish shopping in half an hour. My answer is: no.

I think One Village and Two Kingdoms are very beautiful, especially the reflection of the red pagoda, which is both exotic and vivid, which is very eye-catching. One Village Two Kingdoms is the business card of Ruili, one of the attractions with the most tourists in Ruili, if you report to a group travel agency to visit Ruili, it is a one village two countries, and you will not go to other places. When I was in Heshun Ancient Town, I met a few Shanghainese who said that they would charter a car from Heshun Ancient Town to Ruili for a day, and visit the two places of Yizhai Erguo and Huasha Village for 800 yuan. It can be seen how famous One Village and Two Kingdoms are in Ruili!

transportation

Bus No. 1 in downtown Ruili goes directly to it, which is very convenient.

Ruili's Dawaichao, Huasha Village, Jiegao Port, Mangshi Shwedagon Pagoda, etc.

D6.

Today I plan to visit the three places of Dawaiyao, Huosha Village, and Jiegao Port. I know that Dawaiyao, Huosha Village and Yizhai Erguo are in the same direction. You can take the No. 1 bus directly. After breakfast, you can use your phone I searched for the No. 1 bus stop. The navigation found that it was quite far from the hotel I was staying in. I don’t know what happened. It may be due to improper operation. I was hesitating. Yesterday’s chartered driver called me and asked me if I wanted to go today. chartered car?

I asked her how much to go to the above 3 places? She replied 200 yuan. According to my planned itinerary, I will go to Mangshi this afternoon. If I take a bus to go to the three places of Dawaiyao, Huosha Village, and Jiegao Port, it will take a day. Changing the car and waiting for the car is also troublesome. If the price reaches 180 yuan, then I can rent another car. This price should be a bit expensive. She refuses to pay 150 yuan, so let it be more expensive. I am not familiar with the place when I am away. It is inevitable that you will be slaughtered. You must be in a good mood when traveling abroad. Departure at 9:10, or in line with the principle of first going to the farthest place and then calling, and arriving at the destination at 10 o'clock.

Dawaiyao is a primitive Dai village. There is no entrance fee to enter the village. It is currently under construction. Some buildings have not yet been completed. One toilet is dirty and smelly. According to the trend, this village is going to develop tourism.

Dawaihou's landmark building ----- Dawaihou Nongyu Temple. It is said that every village of the Dai people has such a Nongfu Temple, which is a must for every village.

Waiting for a shout - a scenic spot that is under construction and has not yet been completed.

Dawai is called the aboriginal Dai people's residence.

Wait and shout, there are no construction workers, no aborigines, and it looks like an unfinished building.

The basketball court in Dawaiting is empty, there is no tourist, and there are very few aborigines. We are the only two wandering in the empty primitive Dai village. The places that other tourists don’t go are the attractions I’m looking for. My The style of travel is to look for beautiful scenery with few people, this is the real travel!

The Dai village road is sparsely populated. The short bungalow on the right is a canteen, and no customers have been seen.

Dawai is called Dai Nationality House.

Without any other tourists, I didn’t see a few villagers shouting and wandering around for about 30 minutes, and went to the next stop

Shoutsha Village - tickets are free.

Shoutsha Village is also an original ecological village of the Dai nationality. Because it is very close to one village and two countries, the scale here is larger, and there are also some tourist guide signs, but there are still no other tourists, and we are still only wandering around, but There are many more Dai aborigines in the village.

Because there are no tourists, all the shops are closed.

The splashing water square, which used to be very lively, is now empty and sad.

The new golden pagoda has not yet been completed, standing alone in the middle of the water.

It seems that some red and white weddings are being held. Why are so many Dai villagers dining at the same time? ?

Shouting sand bungalows are mostly built in the center of the village.

Inside the house, you can take off your shoes and go in to visit, but you can't make loud noises.

past and present. From the comparison of the old and new Dai houses, it can be seen that this is a wealthy family.

After more than half an hour, we left Shoutsha Village for today's

The last stop is Sister Gao Port.

There is a large-scale indoor jade and jadeite trading market at Jiegao Port, and there are many expensive duty-free shopping malls. As an ordinary person, I can't afford these high-end products, and I'm not interested in them. The big country gate, the small country gate, and a big square end the two-day trip to Ruili.

Sister told the big country gate of the port.

In the square in front of Daguomen, some Burmese beauties with bananas on their heads take photos with tourists. They charge 5 RMB and pay by scanning a QR code with a QR code in their hands. They are also advancing with the times.

Behind the gate, the Burmese building - the Golden Palace.

Sister told the small country gate of the port. This country gate is for vehicles to enter and exit. There are many people and vehicles, and it looks a bit chaotic.

Behind the barbed wire is Myanmar. They are selling Chinese export cigarettes, such as Zhonghua and Yuxi, to the Chinese. They should be quite cheap, and many people buy them. I don't smoke, so no inquiry to buy.

China-Myanmar Street.

My sister told the port square.

Let’s talk about the Jiegao port, I have been to some other ports, but Jiegao is a real port, WHY? Entering Jiegao, OK, there is no problem, but there is a security check hall at the exit port, everyone must be checked, All luggage must be checked, including tourists on the travel agency bus. Everyone must queue up to pass the customs. If you buy more cigarettes than the customs limit, you will be taxed, just like It's the same as going abroad, so I say that Jiegao is a real port.

At 12:20, the chartered driver took me directly to Ruili Bus Station to catch the Ruili-Mangshi bus at 12:30.

When the minibus bus arrived not far from Mangshi Passenger Station, some small golden pagodas appeared on both sides of the road, which gave people a refreshing feeling and full of exotic atmosphere. The first impression of Mangshi was that it was different. At 2:45 p.m. Arrive at Sankeshu Bus Station in Mangshi.

mangshi

Ruili City is not big, but Mangshi is even smaller. As a small prefecture-level city, the most beautiful business cards are undoubtedly the Menghuan Great Golden Pagoda and Menghuan Great Silver Pagoda. Of course, Mengba Naxi Rare Garden is a place for everyone. You must also visit the must-see scenic spot, the Shubao Pagoda. These scenic spots are not very far from the Sankeshu Bus Terminal, and can be reached by shared bicycles. I heard that there is also a Sanxiandong scenic spot, about 30 kilometers away from Mangshi. Because I have time, I really want to visit this Sanxiandong. Due to the inconvenient transportation, I decided to rent a small car to visit all the above-mentioned attractions. Renting a car can play Be relaxed and free. Coming out of the passenger station, I walked for a few minutes with a big backpack on my back. I saw a private car rental company and rented a Focus sedan with automatic transmission for 190 yuan/24 hours, with a deposit of 1,000 yuan.

After driving out of the car rental shop and entering the highway for a few seconds, I looked up and saw the 7 Days Inn (Three Trees) store. I ordered online for 105 yuan a day, and that was it. After completing the formalities, I entered the room. Wow, the room is super large, clean and tidy. Like.

Put away your luggage and go. Navigate to

The first stop - Shwedagon Pagoda, tickets 40 yuan / person.

The car drives directly to the top of the mountain. If you go by bicycle, you need to climb a section of the mountain road, which is said to be quite tiring.

The Shwedagon Pagoda is a very small scenic spot, and there are many tourists. Follow the prompts and go around the Golden Pagoda three times in a clockwise direction, which will be of great merit. The whole scenic spot can be visited in more than half an hour.

The business card of Mangshi - Shwedagon Pagoda.

A few tens of meters away from the Shwedagon Pagoda is the Shwedagon Pagoda. Compared with the Shwedagon Pagoda, there are very few tourists here, and the two scenic spots take more than an hour.

Today's second stop --- Big Silver Pagoda, tickets 40 yuan / person.

Big Silver Pagoda. Tourists are few and far between.

Big Silver Pagoda. Empty scenic spots. I think the Big Silver Pagoda Scenic Area is quite beautiful.

After visiting the Golden and Silver Pagodas, drive for a few minutes to today's

The third stop --- Shubao Pagoda, tickets are free.

Shubao Pagoda is a Dai-style pagoda, formerly known as Tiecheng Pagoda. The pagoda is a solid brick pagoda. It is named Shubao Pagoda because it is covered by tree roots. It is the earliest pagoda built by the local Dai people.

This scene is located in an empty compound. Private cars are almost parked around the Shubao Tower. If you have ever been to Angkor Wat in Cambodia, then this attraction is too small and too small. It is not surprising that you have never been to Angkor Cave, it is quite novel to come here to see.

Tree bag tower.

After coming out of Shubao Pagoda, Wuyun Temple is a few minutes by car, a typical Dai temple. Wuyun Temple is called "Zanghan" in Dai language. A very small temple, come here for a visit. Tickets are free.

Dai Temple---Wuyun Temple.

Not far from Wuyun Temple is the Bodhi Temple. Because the place is small, it is difficult to park, so it is convenient to walk there. It takes about 10 minutes to walk there. Because there is a big Bodhi tree in front of the temple, the Bodhi Temple is named after the tree. This temple enjoys a certain reputation in Myanmar, and it is also a famous Buddhist temple in Southeast Asia. I respect the temple at a respectful distance, and a visit here is enough.

Bodhi Temple, tickets are free.

These 5 scenic spots are relatively close to each other, and they were all done in 2 hours, and finally navigated to a newly opened restaurant-Pin Dehong. This is a unique peacock feast of the Dai nationality. It is a very special hand-picked rice of the Dai nationality. I have never eaten this kind of dinner before. It is the first time I have seen it. It is very special and recommended! It is recommended that if you travel to Mangshi in the future, you might as well give it a try.

Pindehong---the birthplace of peacock banquet. 128 yuan/set, including a little peacock meat. recommend!

The waiter brought this dish, let the diners appreciate it for a while, and then said, the feast is over, pour water into the three small cups in the middle, and a puff of green smoke suddenly rises, which is very artistic. . . .

The peacock is opening its tail, and the banquet is about to begin.

In the dining room, the Dai people sing and dance. Recommend this restaurant, the name of the restaurant -----Pin Dehong.

Going back to the 7 Days Chain Three Trees store, I didn’t expect that there is free parking, which is great. The room is large, the price is low, clean and tidy, less than 100 meters away from the bus terminal, not far from various attractions, and there is free parking. I recommend this 7-day chain Three Trees.

Ruili Raiders

Ruili's chartered car is actually much more expensive than Tengchong. If you travel to Ruili in the future, try not to charter a car if you can. Because I chartered a car with a Shenyang couple, I saved half of it. Otherwise, I would rent a car and drive myself, free and easy.

The attractions of Ruili are divided into east and west.

In the east, from far to near, there are mainly Wanding, Moli Yudren Waterfall, Single Tree Forest and Jielejin Pagoda.

The Lone Tree Forest and Jiele Jinta are very close to Ruili City, and they can be reached simply by sharing. These two attractions are very small, half an hour is enough.

Wanding and Moli Yulin Waterfall are farther away. They used to be accessible by people with noodles, but now they have been eliminated. To go to these two places, you must take a taxi or charter a car.

Wanding mainly has a foreign port and the Zhong and Myanmar Wanding bridges, and other attractions are average.

Moli Yudren Waterfall, a primeval forest park, has a tropical rainy style. I think it is the largest scenic spot in Ruili. When you arrive in Ruili, you must visit here.

In the west, from far to near, there are mainly Dadenghou, One Village Two Kingdoms, and Huasha Village. These three scenic spots are all on the same line, and can be reached directly by bus No. 1.

Special reminder: If you come to Ruili by bus from Tengchong, then there is bus No. 1 at the only passenger station in Ruili. It is best to book a hotel near the bus stop of No. 1, which is very convenient. It is convenient to get from the passenger station to the hotel, and it is very convenient to go to scenic spots such as Yizhai and Erguo, killing two birds with one stone.

In the middle of the country, my sister told the port.

It is also a gate of the country, with the largest jade and jade market, duty-free shopping malls full of streets, and Burmese people selling Chinese duty-free cigarettes to Chinese from the Burmese side of the barbed wire fence, and the business is booming. From the hotel to Jiegao Port, the taxi costs 20 yuan.

Ruili weather.

I was in Ruili on November 24. In Ruili this season, before 9:30 in the morning, there is fog almost every day, and the vision is not good. Generally, after 10:00, the sky is clear and the sun is shining. Those who want to travel to Ruili in the future should not go out too early.

besides

There are travel agency advertisements in the lobbies of relatively large hotels in Ruili, 4 people 300 yuan for a day trip, and the main attractions of Ruili can be visited in one day. I never contacted such a travel agency because I was afraid of being scammed. This information is only for reference.

Mangshi Sanxian Cave, Mengba Naxi Rare Garden.

D7.

Sanxian Cave is about 40 kilometers away from Mangshi, hidden deep in the mountains. There is a section of mountain road with many sharp turns. This new driver was terrified for a long time. Fortunately, there was no danger and he passed safely. Hours, arrived at the destination after 10 am.

After passing the sharp turn safely, drive to this deserted mountain, stop to take pictures, leave a souvenir, and take a short rest by the way.

Sanxian Cave left me with a very good image:

First, I have already bought tickets for 40 yuan/person. LP checked online at Qunar, and online shopping was 24 yuan/person. After discussing with the staff of the scenic spot, they agreed to refund the ticket, and then shopped online. I have traveled all over China, and this is the first time I have encountered such a good thing.

Second, today is a working day, and there are only 2 tourists in the whole scenic spot. After waiting for 5 minutes, no other tourists came. I am very touched by the service, which is very good.

Because there were no other tourists, we walked slowly, took pictures slowly, strolled in the cave leisurely for more than 2 hours, and returned to the gate of the scenic spot at 12:15. One morning passed, and I didn’t see any other tourists. It is estimated that there are only 2 of us today. It is a pity that such a beautiful scenic spot is hidden deep in the mountains and the transportation is inconvenient.

Sanxian Cave, recommended, recommended.

Return to Mangshi after 1:00 p.m., and come to the last scenic spot in the plan-Mengba Naxi Rare Garden.

Mengba Naxi Rare Garden, tickets are 40 yuan.

Mengba Naxi Rare Garden brings together a large number of ancient and famous trees that are rare in the country and rare petrified wood and jade in the world. Its characteristics are: rare, strange, ancient and strange, which can be called a tourist attraction with a collection of boutiques and a treasure house of subtropical plant genes.

At the entrance of the park is the Memorial Pavilion of Zhou Enlai, the most beloved Premier of the Chinese people. In 1956, Premier Zhou, Vice Premier He Long and then Prime Minister U Ba Swee of Myanmar made a special trip to Mangshi to preside over the celebration of the border people of the two countries.

It was already 2:20 p.m. when we walked out of the rare garden, so we filled up the fuel tank of the rental car and returned the car. Opposite the car rental point is bus No. 6, 3 yuan/person, directly to Mangshi Airport. Return to Kunming at 5:00 pm. My plane ticket is from Shanghai to Kunming, so I have to go back to Shanghai from Kunming.

Kunming Changshui Airport is very convenient to enter the city. Take the subway directly to Jiefang Square in the center of Kunming. I booked the nearby Orange Hotel, 218 yuan per day, a very good hotel, including breakfast.

Today's Raiders

Today I visited Mangshi's Sanxian Cave and Mengba Naxi Rare Garden.

Traffic in Sanxian Cave

Near the Sankeshu Passenger Station in Mangshi City, there is also a Luxi South Passenger Station. There are 2 buses a day from the Luxi South Passenger Station to Mengjia Town, and then transfer from Mengjia or take a taxi or motorcycle directly to the scenic spot. After the tour, just take the afternoon shuttle bus back to Mangshi. The traffic is not very convenient, self-driving is the best choice.

For a tourist like me who likes to explore and go to places that others don't go to, Sanxian Cave is a very worthwhile scenic spot, I like it.

Mengba Naxi Rare Garden is not far from Sankeshu Bus Terminal, and can be reached by shared bicycles.

Kunming Yuanmou Earth Forest

D8.

When I was in Shanghai, I really wanted to go to Yuanmou Tulin. The traffic to Tulin was not very convenient. When I was in Shanghai, I contacted an old classmate in Kunming. Today I borrowed a small POLO from him and drove for more than 2 hours. , arrived at Yuanmou Tulin at 12:30.

Yuanmou soil forest, ticket 50 yuan/person, electric frequency car 15 yuan/person.

Yuanmou soil forest is a wonderful natural wonder in China and even in the world. After millions of years of crustal movement, the god of wind and rain carved the land in Yuanmou into various strange shapes. It is another tourist attraction with few tourists and spectacular scenery.

I stayed in the soil forest for more than 2 hours. I didn't see any tour groups, and there weren't many tourists. I was alone in the depression and dreamed about the smoke. I knew its beauty and was very enjoyable.

Return to Kunming at 5:00 p.m., and return to Shanghai at 8:30 p.m., ending the 8-day perfect trip in western Yunnan.

As far as I know, there is a bus from Kunming to Tulin, but if you take the bus, because the journey is far away, it may not be enough to go back and forth in one day, so it is better to stay one night. There are currently 2 scenic spots open in Yuanmou area. 1. Yuanmou soil forest. 2. Langbapu soil forest. I went to the Yuanmou Earth Forest. The Langbapu Earth Forest is farther away. It is said that the earth forest there is wider.

Summarize

This 8-day trip to western Yunnan is perfect, what do you say? In these 8 days, the sun was shining every day and the sky was clear. It is rare to have such good luck when traveling abroad, and I am naturally in a good mood. In addition, I went to a few wonderful caves with few tourists, even only 2 of us, and the scenery is very magnificent, so I say this trip is perfect.

Of course, because of the chartered car, I was chopped off a little. Although I lost a little money, it did not affect my happy mood at all. I am on the road and I am not familiar with the place, so I will inevitably be cheated. I still use my "famous quotes" The end of the travel note: "A trip without regrets is not a trip."
