D1, D2:

Follow the Gaode navigation and arrive in Kunming the next night. At the end of February and the beginning of March, the best place to go in Kunming is to see red-billed gulls in Dianchi Lake. These elves, who have flown from Siberia for the winter, have arrived in Kunming for 23 consecutive years, and will fly back to Siberia at the end of March.

After arriving in Kunming by car the night before, I found a hotel near Dianchi Lake to stay. This will make it easier to go to Dianchi Haigeng Park early the next morning.


D3:

From 7:30 to 9:30 in the morning at Dianchi Lake in Kunming, depart for Jianshui at 9:30, arrive at Jianshui County at 13:00 in the afternoon, depart from Jianshui to Duoyishu at 16:30 in the afternoon, and arrive in Duoyishu at 21:30 in the evening .


There is a parking space on the side of the road early in the morning. When you get off the bus, you will see the dam. When you get on the dam, you will be full of red-billed gulls. The sound of gulls is endless.



There are stalls selling gull food, mainly bread and special red-billed gull food. Ten yuan a bag.


The close contact between humans and gulls is also the result of protecting birds over the years. I envy you, Kunming people!

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -----------------------


Two hours later, we left Dianchi Lake and the lovely red-billed gull. Still use Gaode to navigate, the destination is Jianshui County.


If you go to Yuanyang to see the terraced fields, you will probably take a look at the ancient city of Jianshui.

About three and a half hours, arrived in Jianshui County. Not far into the city, I found a parking lot sign. I drove in and took a look. Good guy, it really is an ancient city, a cultural relic! The house was a school in the Qing Dynasty and has been a primary school since then. Not long ago, the elementary school was moved away, and it was going to be repaired and used as a tourist attraction.


Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Jianshui has always been the center of politics, economy, culture and transportation in southern Yunnan, known as a famous state of literature;


Also known as Zoulu in Southern Yunnan


The main roads in Jianshui City are all paved with bluestones, and the ancient style is blowing.


There are pavilions built in the middle of the road in some sections, and some old people are playing cards and sitting idle.

The buildings at the corner of the street are simple and heavy



The center of political economy and culture must also be an important place for military affairs.


Marshal Zhu De lived in Jianshui when he was the battalion commander in the Yunnan Army in the early years. The old residence was guarded by General Tie, but it was not opened.


Jianshui was Lin'an Prefecture in Ming and Qing Dynasties, so imprints with Lin'an symbols abound.


There are also many archways on the street.

There are many old houses on both sides of the street, tell us what is carved beams and painted buildings


Isn’t such an alley stall very friendly?


Homemade plows are cheap and sweet


The loess wall may only exist in the memory of the elderly


I don't know if this kind of pastry is good or not, but it must be deeply implanted in the taste of a generation.


And the weeds and flowers on the roof swaying in the wind often freeze our eyes.


This thing should be delicious, right? How can I pass by but miss it?



Jianshui people eat at a very low table, with small potatoes and thick tofu blocks baked in the middle.


I ate rice noodles at noon and it tasted good. The waiter is very chatty.


The clothing store opened by the Yi people is called "Nisu" in the Yi language. I bought a piece of Hani clothing in a Yi shop.

The great unity of the people of all nationalities.


Jianshui County is also the favorite place of literary youth, because there is a small narrow-gauge railway station with a history of 100 years. A hundred years ago, private capital here built a narrow-gauge train connecting Kunming and Vietnam. The train line did not stop running until the early 21st century. Now it has been changed to a tourist route, with two sightseeing trains running every day. Nine in the morning and half past two in the afternoon. Round trip 100 yuan, a total of four hours. When we arrived, it was past the departure time of the day and we didn't experience it. Save it for another time.


Some photos were taken on the platform


Do you think that young people in literature and art love trains, railway tracks, and stations? Suddenly I feel that I am still young. The rails stretch into the distance, what is there in the distance? There are poems! If there is poetry, there must be something? There is love.

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------


Depart at around 4:00 p.m. to Duoyishu Terraced Fields Scenic Area in Yuanyang County. About 150 kilometers away, it takes nearly four hours to run. Why? The second-level mountain road is not fast.

In the mountains of Ailao Mountain in southern Yunnan, there lived the Hani people. There is a saying that Hani, Hani, has a homonym with Mud Man. But Hani and Mud aren't for fun. For thousands of years, they have cultivated large tracts of terraced fields in the depths of the mountains where they are located, following the changes in the shape of the mountains. From December to April of the next year, the terraced fields are filled with water, the water and the sky correspond, the sunlight, clouds, and the light and shadow changes of the angle of view present a colorful and incomparably magnificent picture. Duoyishu looks at the terraced fields at sunrise in the morning, Aichun looks at the blue terraced fields, Bada looks at the sea of ​​clouds, Laohuzui looks at the sunset terraced fields, and Laoyingzui looks at the red terraced fields.

At about nine o'clock in the evening, we came to Duoyishu Scenic Area. The hotels are all run by fellow villagers. The peak season during the Spring Festival holiday has passed in early March. The fellow villagers took the initiative to reduce the standard room to 90 yuan per day, and kept saying that the room was 480 yuan per day a few days ago.

Early in the morning at Duoyishu, in the morning at Aichunlan Rice Terraces, at noon at Laohuzui, and stayed until evening to watch the sunset.

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------

Waiting for the sunrise at the viewing platform at 7 o'clock in the morning. Tickets are 100 yuan/person, valid for two days, which means that you can see the entire scenic spot in two days. The only scenic spots that can be entered with tickets are Duoyishu and Laohuzui.

Let's take a look at Duoyishu's morning first.

Duoyishu terraced fields look like engraved prints from a distance, as well as traditional Chinese ink paintings. After the sun came out, everyone evacuated to the second stop: Aichunlan Terraced Fields.


The photography team is basically dominated by the elderly. They belong to the group of people who have no worries about food and clothing after retirement. It is very annoying to grab the best position wherever you go, set up long guns and short guns, and pretend to be a photographer. Because the tripod occupies a relatively large position, the viewing position is reduced by more than half.


The slope of the blue terraces is not so steep, reflecting the blue sky, and the scale is not large.


This little Hani boy met me on the field ridge, and he asked me: Are you here to see the terraced fields?


Hani women seem to be the main force in the work. These two Hani women are carrying soil on their backs in baskets to repair the canal.

We arrived at Tiger Mouth Scenic Spot before one o'clock in the afternoon. Since the most beautiful scenery comes from sunset, I have been staying in Tiger's Mouth for a long time.


Afterwards, the arrangement for viewing the Hani Terraces can be arranged as follows: 1. Arrive at Duoyishu the night before, and walk no more than five minutes from the place where Duoyishu stays to the viewing point. 2. Watch the sunrise of Duoyishu early the next morning, 3. Then continue to see the Aichunlan terraced fields, 4. Then turn back to find Shengcun, from Shengcun to Laoyingzui to see the red terraced fields. 5. At three o'clock in the afternoon, return to Shengcun from Eagle's Mouth and then to Tiger's Mouth. The distance between all scenic spots is within 20 kilometers, and the closest one is only five kilometers. It is enough to arrive at Tiger's Mouth before six o'clock. 6. Navigate from Laohuzui to Qingkou Terraced Fields or Bada Scenic Area for accommodation. This is good for seeing the sea of ​​clouds the next day. But looking at the sea of ​​clouds requires some luck. Needs weather just after the rain. We didn't see it this time. 7. Look at the scattered terraced fields and sea of ​​clouds near Bada Scenic Area. 8. You can start your return journey after noon.


On the way from Duoyishu to Laohuzui, there are also some small terraced field attractions, which do not require tickets. They are not so grand, but they are also very small and fresh.

Take a look at the Tiger Mouth Rice Terraces

If the Duoyishu terraced fields are like prints or ink paintings, then the Laohuzui terraced fields are like oil paintings. The rich colors and dreamy lines take us into pastoral utopias.

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------

Come out from Tiger's Mouth and go back the same way towards Yuanyang County, what's the matter? come on. Remember, there is no gas station in the terraced field scenic area. At that time, I still had one and a half bars of gas, and I was worried that I would not be able to finish tomorrow's distance. To be safe, let's refuel first. Therefore, before entering the scenic spot, fill up the gas, or at least half of it.

In the evening, stay in the small town of Hani near Bada. It was here that the proprietress told us the route of the eagle mouth scenic spot that was not planned.

I saw several terraced fields in Bada Scenic Area early this morning. Most of these terraces can be observed up close. If Duoyishu and Laohuzui show abstract pictures, then the Bada Terraced Fields show mostly realistic pictures.




At noon, go to Eagle's mouth. The locals are not familiar with the place Eagle's Mouth, and asked a few people to determine the location, but none of them knew. They all only know Tiger Mouth. The navigation is actually guided, but at the location of the Shengcun police station, because there are many cars parked at the intersection where you turn, so when you pass by for the first time, you don’t find the intersection that the navigation requires to turn left. The Laoyingzui Red Terraced Fields will not be developed for several years because the road to Laoyingzui is too narrow. The meeting of the two cars was just enough to pass. So the cart of the travel agency couldn't get there at all. The village at the end of the Laoyingzui Terraces is called Mali Village. After entering, there is no second way out of the village, so we can only return to Shengcun by the same way. So this small concrete road cannot be set up as a one-way street. Originally, I wanted to see if there was any restaurant in the stockade, and experience the authentic Hani food, but I was disappointed, there was no.


Look at the red terraces. The so-called red terraced fields are because a kind of aquatic algae similar to duckweed grows wild in the terraced fields with water, which is purple in color.


alright. On the afternoon of the fifth day, you can drive back. You can drive to Anshun in Guizhou tonight.


D6, Anshun to Qianjiang


D7, Qianjiang to Nanjing.


Look at the expenses: fuel costs 2966, tolls 2426.9, meals 594, accommodation 931, a total of 6917.9. Two people, 3458.95 per capita.
