Tengchong, a legendary place on the edge of the pole, the earth is booming. Hundreds of millions of years ago, the volcanic eruption created this dreamy land, and the sound is still continuing today...
Volcanoes, hot springs, wetlands, ancient towns, hometowns of overseas Chinese...all of these are concentrated on it, and every glance is a landscape, all of which are intoxicating and beautiful frontier scenery, which makes people unable to describe.
It is connected with mountains and rivers in Myanmar, only 70 kilometers away. Since ancient times, it has been an important hub and commercial port connecting South Asia and Southeast Asia.
Tengchong is the destination that I have been thinking about for many years, a place that haunts my dreams.
If I don't go to Tengchong, how can I untie the knot in my heart.
From Nanchang to Tengchong, transiting through Kunming, the flight route is a bit tortuous, but there is no life without tossing. Since I landed at Kunming Airport in the middle of the night, I booked an airport VIP lounge. I came too actively. The VIP room has not yet opened. Sit down for a while.
What about the door opening at 4:30?
At 5am, the waiter finally came.
There are several different areas in the lounge, one for one person, one for two people, one for four people, and some for multiple people.
There is even a "confinement room". In the innermost corner, it is surrounded by glass, so you can't hear the sound from the outside, but there are few people who actually sit there. At least I didn't see any during the two hours I stayed. Whoever went in, I was the only one who pulled the glass door out just to take a picture.
It's a good deal to spend 28 yuan to enter the VIP room. I made a bowl of Master Kong, drank a glass of orange juice, and ate a pack of slices and two small tomatoes, which already exceeded 28 yuan.
After 15 minutes of massage on the massage chair, I felt quite comfortable. After a while, I pressed the start button again. Again, worth it!
Those who are educated can look through newspapers and magazines.
For surfers, there is internet and computers here.
On Friday, July 27th, the gray plane took off at 9:55 on time and flew to Tengchong. The flight was operated by Kunming Airlines, and the flight only provided a bottle of mineral water.
An hour later, we landed at Tengchong Tuofeng Airport. The airport is small and built on several flattened hilltops, similar to Shennongjia Airport and Jiuhuang Airport. Passengers have to walk on the apron when boarding and disembarking.
The pre-booked Benno Boutique Holiday B&B came to pick up the airport, but it was a Mercedes-Benz, don't scare me, poor people can't afford to be scared.

The appearance of Tengchong has been sketched countless times in my mind, so that when I really stand in front of it, my heart still beats faster.
Here, time is slow and the rhythm is very slow. The mountain people are rich and simple, and the mountain products are fresh and affordable.
Here, there are not many tourists and not too commercial, which makes people feel comfortable and relaxed.
Here, far away from life, very close to dreams.
Elope to Tengchong! Enjoy a leisurely and comfortable weekend like a borderer, and waste some good time. I travel far for myself.
Day 1: Heshun Ancient Town, where caravans in Ming and Qing Dynasties must go
Half an hour after arriving at Heshun Ancient Town from Tengchong Airport, get off at Jia's Ancestral Hall, go up the winding path on the slope, and turn two small turns. There are no other disorderly shops in the scenic area on the road, and there is no entanglement in order to attract customers. Only the old man who is taking a leisurely walk speaks authentic and casual words, everything seems quiet and casual, and suddenly a sense of tranquility strikes, this is the destination for vacation.
Walking along the alley, I finally saw [Ben Nuo]. When I saw her for the first time, I was amazed at the first sight. The small white building appeared at the end of the winding path.
Borrowing the natural trend of Heshun ancient town, Bennuo cleverly avoids the disturbance of passing vehicles, allowing you to be alone in the mountains and rivers and live in seclusion in peace.
After traveling a lot, I realized that where to go is very important, and where to live is even more important.
Once the homestay was born, it changed the monotony of traditional hotels, and won the love of a large number of travelers with its unique sense of place and non-standard design.
Some people like the homestay because they love the down-to-earth atmosphere of the homestay. Chatting with the owner of the homestay, making friends with tourists from all over the world, can better feel the local customs. It is also a great pleasure in life to go out to visit scenic spots during the day, come back to have a glass of wine at night, talk about the experience of the day, and brag!
Although there are many homestays in Heshun Ancient Town, Ben Nuo stands out from the crowd in the town. A group of small white buildings are really eye-catching and good-looking homestays.
The name "Benno" is also very special, I still don't understand its meaning.
When I walked in, I was amazed. It is not like other inns with narrow, earth-eating layout and buildings. The owner specially invited a senior designer from Beijing to design it. The facade of the building was decorated with wooden fences, and the front yard was carefully transformed into A Chinese-style courtyard that perfectly combines Jiangnan gardens and Japanese-style dry mountains and rivers, with exquisite Chinese-style soft furnishings, and ethereal music lingering in the entire homestay. In this way, the taste of elegance and Zen is naturally born, and it immediately gives travelers a sense of tranquility and warmth.
Entering the gate, it is a courtyard. In the courtyard, you can bask in the sun in winter, watch the stars in summer, enjoy flowers in spring, and pick fruits in autumn.
There is a shallow pool in the courtyard. The water in the pool is very transparent. I didn't pay attention and almost stepped into it.
There is my shadow in the water, and I suddenly find that the life I pursue is right in front of me...
On the right side of the courtyard is the front desk, which is simple and bright, with tea chairs waiting for guests, and sweets and fruits on the table for guests to take by themselves.
On the left side of the yard is a large tea room, the view is not too wide, and drinking a pot of tea here is just an afternoon. Even if you don't do anything, just lean on a book in your left hand and a cup of tea in your right hand, half a day will pass.
One wall of the tea room is covered with books. The aroma of tea and books go well together. One day I will write my own story into the book.
Directly opposite the courtyard is the kitchen, with 3 dining tables, the taste of home.
With the thoughtful matching of children's chairs, parents can eat with peace of mind, and don't worry about it anymore.
Looking up, the shape of this lamp is very new, it is a fish lamp.
Bennuo, this homestay hidden in the ancient town of Heshun is the place I am looking for.
Looking at the entire Heshun Ancient Town, Bennuo's location advantage and appearance quality are definitely among the best. This is a courtyard house in an alley. The most important thing is that it has a unique roof, which can command a panoramic view of the ancient town and the two sleeping volcanoes opposite.
There are only eight rooms in the inn, and the names of each room are derived from Tang and Song poems. Whether you are on a honeymoon trip, a parent-child trip or a place to hang out, there is a suitable place for you.
As soon as you enter the door, you will find a white and soft big bed. The clean and tidy room has a light natural woody fragrance. The soft sunlight just pours down from the window, making everything in the room bright and clear.
All the rooms are well lit, you can wake up in the morning and be washed by the sun!
The roof is made of wood, and the wooden pillars are so thick. It is difficult to find such thick ones now, and only Myanmar has them.
Bedding and bathroom products are standard in five-star hotels. The sofa and coffee table in the house are equipped with exquisite tea sets and high-quality tea, allowing me to enjoy a leisurely vacation without leaving the room.
There are two sets of baths, the shower and the bathtub are at my disposal. The feeling of lying in the bathtub, who knows.
Ben Nuo’s thoughtfulness is reflected in every place. Magazines, books, and electric mosquito coils are placed in the room. Guests with babies don’t have to worry, the homestay also provides cribs.
Forget it, but there is a backyard, so it must be added.
The green grass is paved, dotted with gravel and rubble, and there is an excellent viewing terrace privately hidden.
With the light and shadow of the sun moving slowly through the window sills, the morning time seems to be slipping by your feet. For people who live in a tense rhythm all day long, what kind of comfort is that?
The best thing about this inn is its simple, bright, and beautiful courtyard, as well as the tea room with a view...
In real life, although we can't change the rhythm of the subway, and we can't escape in the smog, all this can't stop us from yearning for a peaceful life.
Ben Nuo has two white-haired puppies named "Da Nuo" and "Xiao Nuo", and they can be used as pets to amuse and hook up.
There are more than a dozen umbrellas at the door, so you don't have to be afraid even in the scorching sun or heavy rain.
At night, in the small courtyard with a reclining chair, a cattail fan, and two starry sky, it’s like returning to the days when the cattail fan beat the fireflies when I was a child. However, in Benno, you may not shoot Liuying, but "Nuo Nuo" rubbing against your feet.
Here lies the power to calm you,
Can make you forget the longing that makes you struggle,
Calm and warm.
This is the best place for you,
A glass of water and a book can calm you down amidst the pattering rain,
Even if you are full of scars, you will continue to chase love as always.
Breathe the gentle and moist mountain breeze, feel the tranquility and beauty of homestay life, and experience the long-lost relaxation and emptiness.
The handsome manager Yao and the store manager, Amei, have smiles on their faces every day. The meals cooked by the auntie are delicious. People who have been to Bennuo have a simple sense of comfort. There is no enthusiasm that you think is hiding an attempt, and there is no formatting. Everything is very pure, probably the feeling of "the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water".
Ate a bit late for lunch because a darling's flight was delayed by 2 hours.
What surprised me was the handpicked rice, which was the first time I saw it in my life, let alone eat it. It seems that Benno's cook has two brushes. After finishing the meal, I wiped my mouth, and the tempting aroma still lingered between my lips and teeth.
Bennuo Boutique Holiday B&B Address: No. 26, Group 16, Shizilu Village, Heshun Town, Tengchong City, Yunnan Province
Those who want to go out and make troubles don't have to worry about how to play, the housekeeper can arrange guides according to your needs. Those who want to explore freely can set off at any time. Under the guidance of Ben Nuo Xiaowang and intern Zhang, we traveled to Heshun Ancient Town.
Xiao Wang was the tour guide of Heshun Ancient Town Scenic Spot before taking office in Bennuo. We are blessed to visit the ancient town. Their company made our journey perfect and exciting.
Heshun Ancient Town may be unfamiliar to some people, but it is a cultural town with a history of more than 600 years.
The ancient town is located 3 kilometers west of Tengchong City. It was named Yangwentun in ancient times. Because there is a small river passing through the village, it was renamed "Heshun" and later refined into Heshun.
Heshun is an ancient Han town built in the Ming Dynasty. Its closed, traditional and stable environment has completely preserved the characteristics of Han culture in Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is known as the living fossil of ancient Chinese architecture and one of the top ten charming towns in China. .
I have been to a lot of ancient towns in water towns, but it is the first time for a young girl to get on a sedan chair in a border town of the motherland.
The traditional dwellings that have gone through vicissitudes of life are completely preserved here, and its architectural styles include "three squares and one screen wall", "siheyuan", "sihewutianjing" and so on.
Here I appreciate the charm of Huizhou architecture, and also discovered the style of Western architecture. After all, the ancestors are the Central Plains people who stayed behind after the ancient wars.
Time has erased the former youth of Heshun Ancient Town, and carved out today's quaintness. She is like a noble beauty, resigned from the world and independent.
Different from other ancient towns, there is no crowd here, there are not many tourists on the street, there are no shops that look the same, and there are no Yiwu goods.
If you want to see what the ancient border town looks like, then come here for a walk.
If you stay in one place for a long time and your mind is tired, you might as well come here to relax.
Heshun's name is quite pleasing, Hehe Shunshun, Shihe Minshun, so it is especially popular with ancient businessmen, coupled with Tengchong's unique geographical location, it has become the birthplace of the earliest transnational trade in Yunnan, from here to the west , connecting West Asia and South Asia.
Heshun people have run caravans and established businesses for generations, leaving many legendary stories. Until now, there are still historical buildings such as Ai Siqi's former residence, Cun's ancestral hall, Wanlouzi, and Heshun library.
Different from Lijiang's small bridges and flowing water, Heshun Ancient Town is more ancient and full of love. The uneven stone road records the vicissitudes of time and tells the glory of the ancient town.
After thousands of years, the ancient town still has the same style and clear historical veins. Although it has lost its former glory, it has left us with the lanes and alleys of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
The houses in the town are built around the mountains from east to west, gradually increasing, stretching for two or three kilometers. Ancient temples, ancestral halls, and ancient buildings of Ming and Qing Dynasties are scattered around this small dam.
It used to be an important town for caravans and a necessary place for the ancient "Southwest Silk Road". Various foreign cultures blend here. It is also a famous hometown of expatriates. There are more people living abroad than staying at home. But despite these auras, Heshun still maintains its simple and unsophisticated style, which has not changed.
There is a flat river in front of the town, clear streams surround the village, and weeping willows brush the bank. It is a harmonious pastoral scene. Li Gengen in the Republic of China praised the harmony in his poems: it is better than Xiaosuhang.
Pay attention to his wording, it is "absolute victory". In human terms, even heaven is weak in front of it.
As we walked, it started to rain, so Xiao Wang went to the "Taste of Mom" restaurant to borrow 5 umbrellas. The people in the town were still so friendly. When I went to Zhongtian Temple alone on the fourth day, it happened that it started to rain when I arrived at the restaurant. The restaurant still lent me an umbrella to a stranger who had never lived before.
The 4 big and 1 small in front are my fellow travelers, and we admire the ancient town in the light rain.
The brick and wood carvings on the archway on the street are extremely exquisite. Wealth is hard power and can create everything.
In order to make it easier for foreign tourists to find their own targets, the entrances of each street and alley are nailed with various shop signs, each with no less than 20 wooden signs.
Along the winding alleys of the ancient town, you can visit the old houses, old streets and ancient ancestral halls in the ancient town.
"Wanlouzi" is called "Wanlouzi" vividly by Heshun people because the houses are built along the curve of the roadway.
"Wanlouzi" is not only a residential house, but also the name of the Li family of the famous firm "Yongmaohe".
The "Yongmaohe" firm is a representative of getting rich through business. During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, the owner of the firm went to Myanmar to do business for a living, and gradually developed into a multinational firm. There is a semicolon in the ground, and the business name has gone through five generations and has a glorious history of more than 100 years. There is a lonely and calm old lady sitting in the house. She said that the property rights of this house have more than 450 people scattered all over the world, and she is the only guardian of this house.
The Wanlouzi Folk House Museum can open your eyes: architecture can still be like this. No wonder the filming of the TV series "Beijing Love Story" in the early years came here specifically for filming.
Walking into the Cun's Ancestral Hall, I sighed for a long time about the exquisiteness and grandeur of the ancient town's buildings.
Strolling on the quiet ancient roads of the ancient town, scattered houses, and smooth stone roads, you can vaguely see the shadow of the caravan's pets.
Heshun is not like the small village on TV, it also has a long bar street.
Even the bars and commercial centers are not noisy, just as quiet and peaceful, and they can only operate until 11:30 in the evening. This is also the most beautiful place in town.
There are no romantic encounters here, the gentleness of fresh literature and art, the charming is definitely not only the volcano, hot springs, but also its lazy and slow way of life.
Move forward calmly and settle something.
When Zhu Rongji was in office, there were few inscriptions. Only Dao Heshun made an exception and wrote "Heshun and Harmony". Today, I don't have any inscriptions. It's important to enjoy the scenery.
It must be that the place names are well obtained, and the gentle people are very docile, and they don't make troubles about big things, and they don't make noise about small things.
Centenarian Square, I think, maybe there are really many centenarians living here.
The people in the town know life very well. Almost every household grows flowers and grasses. Walking out of the Bennu B&B, there are more than a hundred potted flowers in front of the door and in the courtyard of the big family opposite.
"The bridge is upside down and the stele is repaired, and the stele is upside down to repair yourself", this is inscribed by the predecessors. It is said that if the Shuanghong Bridge in front of the village collapses, the silver taels buried under the stele can be dug up to repair the bridge.
The Sanhe River under the bridge is formed by the confluence of longantou, acid water ditch and Longtan, of which the water in Longtan is drinkable.
The adobe brick houses in other ancient villages and towns have long since collapsed, but the peaceful ones are still strong, living in the houses is warm in winter and cool in summer.
I saw several pools in the town, and each pool has a division of labor, such as washing vegetables and doing laundry, and the villagers will not go one step further.
The mountains are not as high as the feet, and the roads are not as long as the caravans. For more than two thousand years, the people of Yunnan, holding horses in hand, walked a road leading to Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Europe in the most precipitous Hengduan mountain in the world. This is the famous Southwest Silk Road.
The General Military Mansion was relocated as a whole from elsewhere, and now it has been transformed into Bolian Hotel.
The ancient town of Heshun, which has existed for thousands of years, was once neglected. It came into the public eye again thanks to the Beijing Bailian Group, which was discovered and developed by the chairman of Beijing Bailian Group. However, it is said that he has left the Bailian Group now, but Heshun people are all Miss him well.
The lingering willows by the river, the rippling pond and the graceful lotus make the scenery of the hometown of overseas Chinese more charming.
Shuiqi is a famous scene in Heshun, where the scenery is picturesque, with green hills like Daisy and green shadows whirling.
The sparkling Yuanlongtan is like a bright mirror, reflecting the antique Yuanlong Pavilion, which makes people enjoy endless tours and linger. No wonder some film directors, photographers, and painters like to come here to take pictures and paint.
The same waterwheel, different flow of people, there are only single photos here, no group photos.
A small river passes through the ancient town, which makes the town a bit lingering like water.
The Yuanlong River is silent, like a pastoral painting. The birds on the lake do not touch or startle, looking at the clear water, standing alone on the jade lotus, the green lotus leaves are in harmony with the surroundings, and the sounds of frogs here rise and fall, making each other interesting.
You can take pictures in a concave shape, or freeze a few pictures of lotus flowers emerging from the mud without staining. It is also very interesting to watch the frogs bouncing after being frightened.
In Heshun, you can see a very interesting game everywhere, which is stone gambling. You will never know what is wrapped in the stone. If you seek wealth and wealth, you can open it or change a motorcycle for a car. You will become rich overnight, or you will be impoverished and return to before liberation.
Which one did you pick? Will the myth of getting rich overnight be staged by you? !
My favorite is Heshun Library, that beautiful rural library.
Heshun Library is an ancient building with carved beams and painted buildings. It was built in 1928 and was founded by donations from overseas Chinese in Heshun in Myanmar. It is a village-level library with the longest history and the richest collection of books in the country.
It's too late to read the newspapers and periodicals in the museum, and I can't get infected with its liberal arts.
The name of the library was inscribed by Hu Shi, the president of Peking University, and the plaque was inscribed by the president of Yunnan University. The small library has so many big names supporting it, which cannot be underestimated.
There is also local method of making rice paper, which is one of the three treasures of Tengchong (Tengxuan, Tengyao, and Tengbian). If you are interested, you can buy some back.
In Yuanlongguan, one of us masters asked the Taoist priest to make a divination, saying that his career is going well, and every road in the south, east, north and west is accessible, but he is missing money and feelings, so it is inconvenient to disclose.
Tired from walking, I went to the teahouse in Liu’s ancestral hall. I was very kind when I saw it. Come to my house and drink a cup of tea made with local Longtan water and chestnut charcoal fire. go......
Of course, all kinds of snacks in the ancient town are also excellent, not only to satisfy the hunger, but also to remind everyone of the long and vicissitudes of history. Cunshi Bean Flour and Aunt Lin Songhua Cake both have the taste of time. Or just find a restaurant to sit down and order a local unique "three drops of water", "mind", or "clay pot". Just eating it has already made my trip worthwhile.
The sun is setting, and the gentleness after the great heat is most suitable for dusk. The heat has dissipated a little, the setting sun is infinite, Hongliang water moor, and fish waves blowing fragrance. Stop and go with your companions, and talk about the news of West Wind.
The scenery at night is more charming than that during the day, and the gorgeous lights illuminate the stone pavement, which is intoxicatingly beautiful.
Although it was overshadowed by Dali and Lijiang, it is quietly beautiful in its own way.
Sometimes the wrong place is spoiled,
Instead, you should choose niche.
Heshun has a lot of beautiful jade, but he has to be able to bargain, otherwise he will be taken for a ride.
If you look carefully, you can buy a lot of exquisite jadeite, you must understand.
Bennu B&B changed the way to change our taste, and arranged for everyone to come to Sister Hua's private room for dinner.
This is an old courtyard house with only 4 dining tables. There are not many guests. If you don’t make a reservation, you won’t have a share.
Those who dare to order private dishes are not far behind.
The taste is good, the appearance is high, and the name of the dish will not be reported.
After paying the bill, the boss of Sister Hua also presented a bottle of rose wine before leaving. Hey, this bottle of wine, who got it in the end?
After playing outside for a day, go back to the hotel and take a hot bath, and feel happy lying on the big bed~
Sleep is the happiest thing in the world and the last thing in the day. It was so comfortable that I doubted my life, and I wanted to move the bed after I finished staying.
Day 2: Tengchong Volcanic Geopark, Beihai Wetland
The next day I didn’t get up until 8:30, I was too lazy, what should I do if I got back to the rhythm of getting up at 7 o’clock every day after returning home.
In this way, lament the beautiful scenery and gentle time, and then get lost in the little beauty of Benno B&B~
A wonderful day starts with breakfast, of course. The glutinous millet porridge, the fragrant sweet potatoes, and the crispy fried dough sticks are nutritious and delicious.
Speaking of Tengchong, you will definitely think of volcanoes. Tengchong is the most typical young active volcanic geothermal area in my country and one of the four major volcanic groups in my country. Therefore, the mountains we saw in Tengchong may be dormant active volcanoes. Who knows one day it will be active again...
The Volcano Geopark scenic area includes three parts: the Big and Small Kongshan Mountains, the Columnar Joints and the Heiyu River. Due to the long distance between the three, tourists usually go to the Big and Small Kongshan Mountains in Mazhan Township first.
Entering the gate of the scenic spot, there is a volcano museum on the right hand side, where you can popularize the formation and structure of volcanoes.
The road leading from the gate to Dakong Mountain is very wide, and the left and right sides are paved with volcanic stones.
A fork extends to the side of the road leading to Dakong Mountain, which is the trail leading to Xiaokong Mountain. If physical strength and time do not allow it, it is recommended to choose to climb Xiaokong Mountain.
A wooden plank road is built around the crater of Xiaokong Mountain, and you can walk around the crater.
Although Xiaokong Mountain is a dormant active volcano, it has been more than 7,000 years since the last eruption. Therefore, after climbing to the top of the mountain, it no longer has the appearance of volcanic lava as imagined, but a giant round pit instead.
"A good Tengyue Prefecture, ten mountains and nine headless", the top of the mountain is in the shape of a truncated cone. From the top of the mountain to the bottom of the crater with a depth of 47 meters, volcanic cinders, pumice and volcanic bombs can be seen everywhere.
The crater that erupted hundreds of years ago is already full of trees and shrubs, and it is already lush.
Climbing Xiaokong Mountain is easy, while Dakong Mountain is higher. You can ride a horse to the top of the mountain, but you have to pay extra.
You can also take a battery car to the foot of the mountain, but it's not far, just a few steps away. The male protagonists of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" can go there by car or horseback.
The steps of Dakong Mountain make people tremble at first glance, and they lead to the sky step by step.
For those who think that mountain climbing is not enough to climb high and look far, you can choose to take a hot air balloon to overlook the crater of the dense wilderness from another angle, and look at the world from a different height.
After visiting the volcano, drive to the Heiyu River Scenic Area.
After entering the ticket gate of the scenic spot, a turbulent river rushed for thousands of miles. I once mistakenly thought it was the Heiyu River.
No, the Heiyu River is a clear river that flows from an underground river.
The black you mentioned is not black, and Heiyuhe is not black, but white.
Such clean and transparent water is the Heiyu River.
Heiyu River is a group of volcanic lava springs, which are low-temperature hot springs and the second largest spring in Tengchong. The water quality is clear and sweet, meeting the standard of mineral springs. The temperature of the river water is very low, and the villagers use the river water to ice drinks, full marks for creativity.
There is a kind of black fish growing in Hanoi, hence the name of the river. This kind of fish mainly eats small insects and the same kind in the underground river. Brothers kill each other. It has a particularly long body and is black all over. After the lucky black fish flowed out of the cave, with the help of sunlight and abundant food outside the cave, they grew fat and short after a few days. There are many stalls by the river that sell live fish barbecues, ranging from 10 to 25 yuan. The stall owner slaughtered it on the spot, washed it in the Heiyu River, then grilled it with charcoal fire, sprinkled with cumin and five spices and other seasonings, and after a while, the smell of fish wafted in the air. The fish is tender and delicious.
This kind of fish has become less and less. It is recommended that you stop eating this kind of wild fish and protect the environment together. Without consumption, there is no killing.
There are hundreds of wild mountain monkeys on the mountain of Heiyu River Scenic Area. They originally came to watch the underground river Heiyu River, but they turned into feeding wild mountain monkeys.
Not only bear children like to play monkeys, it turns out that women also have this hobby.
Wukong, do you feel good about being molested by a woman?
There is also a geological wonder here: columnar joint columns, unfortunately we missed the path to get there.
Say goodbye to Sun Dasheng and go to Beihai Wetland. For lunch, choose Hailan Farm Leisure Garden outside the gate of the wetland scenic spot. Freshwater fish and shrimp are its specialties. We abandoned the box and chose the outside, the air outside is good and cool, and we don’t need to turn on the electric fan in July.
How can you come to Tengchong without going to the Beihai Wetland? They are all called magical wetlands.
When we bought tickets and entered, the rain came uninvited, adding a misty beauty to the originally wet wetland.
Surrounded by green hills, the wetland is more beautiful than Puzhehei.
Take a small cruise ship from Pier 1 and drive along the winding river.
The light boat passed by, and a group of egrets appeared in the grass on both sides from time to time. The ecology is really good.
The voyage is not long, but it is quite artistic. I hope it will be infinitely long.
Disembarking from Pier 3, I stepped onto the artificially built wooden plank road and walked straight to the center of the wetland.
Walk through the wetlands and enjoy the beautiful scenery around you.
When the heart is tired, look at society from a different angle; when the body is tired, change the environment to breathe. The angle has changed, the environment has changed, and the world is different.
Pieces of meadows in the wetland float on the water. If you think that grass grows on soil, you are wrong. The water under the grass is more than ten meters deep.
The root system of these grasses is particularly developed, usually more than one meter thick, so it has a strong bearing capacity.
On the sparkling water surface, the aquatic plants are densely packed, and the roots are intertwined together to form a whole piece of grass row, floating on the water like small grass islands, which is very magical.
I took off my shoes and walked on the grass row barefoot, feeling like stepping on a sponge.
The local people used to row the grass rafts as boats to catch fish and shrimp.
Today, we also come to be a fisherman.
Others row bamboo rafts, but we row grass rafts in the Beihai Wetland. This is something I like to talk about.
Not only were we here, but big names such as He Jiong, Wang Han, and Xie Na also came.
Hunan Satellite TV has come to Beihai Wetland twice to shoot variety shows, one is "We Are Coming" and the other is "A Feast of Flowers".
There is also the game of stepping on fish, which is much more interesting than games on mobile phones. Wearing rain boots, stepping on the grass raft, making a hole in the grass raft, and reaching into the water to catch fish, the joy was over the sky.
After playing for two hours, I went ashore and took a battery car back to the entrance and exit of the scenic spot to go to the next destination.
Transportation: Tengchong Ximen Passenger Station has a minibus to the wetland, and it takes 20 minutes by car. You can also take a taxi directly to the park gate, about 60 yuan for a round trip.
On the return journey, we passed the "Ten Mile Lotus" scenic spot, and the rain stopped at this time, so we got off the car and continued to play.
I couldn't help but think of the text "Ai Lian Shuo" I read in middle school. The author is also a fellow of Fulong.
Women love concave shape here.
The drops of water after rain on the lotus leaves gradually become smaller and disappear. The breeze is coming, the water shadows are swimming, and the wind is lifting.
The lotus has been photographed badly, and it is by no means an easy task to make a good one.
Don't try to hide from my camera to see where you are running.
I met three people who came to the Lotus Scenic Area to hunt birds with long cannons. Photography is also hard work.
Tickets are down-to-earth, only 10 yuan.
In the evening, I had dinner at an Internet celebrity restaurant in the urban area. The name of the restaurant was Chaowei Tongpiao Beef Restaurant. There was a large parking lot outside and a large yard inside. I was so busy eating that I forgot to take pictures.
Day 3: Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall in West Yunnan, National Tomb, Atami.
Tengchong was the main battlefield of the Yunnan, India and Burma campaigns in World War II.
Expeditionary Army, Flying Tigers, Burma Highway, Hump Route, Songshan War, Scorched Earth War, Nanyang Machine Workers, these shocking and weeping anti-Japanese stories all happened here.
An inch of rivers and mountains, an inch of blood, after a deafening bombardment, silence, silence. The smoke dissipated, and the former comrades-in-arms stood dead, with a cry soaring to the sky. The 200,000 strong men of our Chinese Expeditionary Army sacrificed their lives for the country here, with great righteousness, and comfort for the country.
With our victory, the Yunnan-Burma War completely reversed the situation of China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. It was China's most thorough and humiliating battle to drive the invaders out of the country in the past century.
The Western Dian Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall has collected many precious cultural relics. Countless old photos and cultural relics have truly reproduced the Anti-Japanese War in Western Dian, which played a major role in the Anti-Japanese War. The scenes of history let us pay attention to the heroic 20th Army of the Chinese Expeditionary Army. The soldiers were in awe.
If you don't come to Tengchong and don't come to the National Cemetery, you won't be able to experience the anti-Japanese blood of the people in Tengchong and the national integrity of the Chinese sons and daughters. The National Cemetery is worthy of worship for any patriot. I came to the National Cemetery with admiration.
During those heroic and painful years, for the liberation of the nation and the smooth flow of the anti-Japanese blood, the Chinese descendants including the people of Tengchong fought side by side with the American "Flying Tigers", defeated the arrogance of the Japanese invaders, and finally defeated the enemy. Drive out of Tengchong. For this reason, this national cemetery was built in Tengchong, and Lao Jiang wrote a monument for this moment.
The main buildings of the cemetery - the gate, the corridor, the martyr's shrine, the tomb of the martyrs in Xiaotuanpo, and the memorial tower are located on a central axis, ascending successively and rising layer by layer.
From the gate through the long corridor, go up to the first step along the stone steps, and then along the stone steps to the second step. The retaining wall is inlaid with "Blood Blood Qianqiu" official script inscribed stones. The double eaves on the top of Xieshan imitate the architecture of the Qing Dynasty, and it is a hall dedicated to the heroic spirits of the fallen soldiers of the Anti-Japanese War.
Bypassing the Martyrs' Shrine is the Su Muling Mountain, which is full of tombstones. The ashes of more than 3,000 soldiers who died in the Anti-Japanese War are buried on the hillside. These standing tombstones tell the tragedy of the expeditionary army, and also buried the glory and blood of the fathers.
Let's not forget the sacrifices of others. 14 Allied officers and soldiers including Chaber, an American soldier who died in the Tengchong War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, are buried here.
There are chrysanthemums offered on each tomb, which is a memorial to the martyrs by the living.
Named and Unnamed Heroes

Infinite memory of you
Child soldiers are not exclusive to the Red Army, they also exist in the national army.
Yu Youren inscribed "Heaven and Earth Righteousness". If you look carefully, the word "Earth" is missing a vertical line. However, it is not a typo, but Yu Lao hopes that everyone who comes here to pay their respects will write a new one to remember this war.
After the war, the local soldiers and civilians beat up the Japanese Japanese, and the blood debt had to be repaid with blood.
In the inconspicuous place at the gate of the cemetery, there is also a small "Japanese mound", which was erected for the Japanese army to collect corpses after the war. This tomb was dug 18 floors, which means going to hell.
Feeling depressed for a long time, go to the bubble hot spring to relieve it.
When you come to Tengchong, you must not miss Atami. You may have favored countless hot springs in winter, but Atami is unique, because it is not only a hot spring, but also a hot spring town endowed by nature.
There are many places with hot springs in the world, but it is rare for Tengchong Rehai to have such a large area, many springs, and good curative effect.
There are more than 80 hot springs in Tengchong, and boiling springs are scattered all over the place. From simple hot spring pools dug at home to luxurious hot spring resorts, you can find all the hot springs you want, but the most representative one must be Atami.
Atami Geopark has high geothermal temperature, abundant steam, and intense hydrothermal activities, which are rare in China.
What can be felt everywhere here is heat, the water flowing in the small river is hot, the springs on the ground are hot, and the air spouting from the cracks in the rocks is also hot. Some places are smoky, some places are hot, some places are steamed, some places are boiling hot springs, and some places are loud, forming an amazing geothermal spectacle.
Atami's toad's mouth is like a big toad with its mouth open, and the torrent that spews out of its mouth is imposing and majestic.
Walk along the stream in the valley, the stream is rushing.
The first spring I saw was called Qunhua Spring, which resembled an unfolded skirt.
Standing at Qunhua Spring and looking back at the foot of the mountain is the Beauty Pool, also known as the Immortal Bathhouse, which is composed of three streams of springs. There are 3 open-air pools, 4 cave pools and a large swimming pool. It is a pure natural SPA paradise. The water quality and temperature of the pools vary. The water in the pool comes from the Pregnancy Well and Sister Springs, which contain a large amount of radon, metasilicate and trace elements, and regular soaking can strengthen the skin.
Going up, you come to Pearl Spring. The bubbles emerging from the pool look like pearls, and the spring lives up to its name.
Sister Spring, with two springs juxtaposed, looks like two sisters singing side by side, and looks like a pair of glasses, so it is also called Glasses Spring.
Continuing to climb the mountain, there is another drumming spring in front of you, which sounds like a drum. Remember not to touch casually to avoid burns.
Up the mountain, there are hot springs gushing out everywhere. Even if you don't jump into the pool to soak in the hot springs, you have already had a natural sauna.
There are two wells in the pregnancy well. The twelve zodiac signs are carved on the side of the well. The steam in the well is lingering. There are many people taking pictures in front of the well, mainly young and middle-aged women. Some pretend to drink the water in the well, and some really drink it.
Finally climbed to the highest "big rolling pot", the color of the hot spring is blue-green, which is the color of sulfur.
No need to sniff, a strong smell of sulfur has already come from a distance.
The "Big Rolling Pot" is a circular hot spring pool with a diameter of nearly 6 meters, a water depth of 1.5 meters, and a water temperature of 97°C. It boils day and night and steams in four seasons. It is said that once upon a time, a cow went to a big boiling pot to lick the salty spring water, and accidentally fell into the pot. When the shepherd boy called someone from the village, it had already boiled into a pot of beef.
Don't rush into the water, just take a look.
By the pool, there are locals who sell eggs boiled in a large boiling pot and strung together with straw. You can try it.
One of the Eighteen Eccentrics in Yunnan, no firewood or pot is used to cook eggs.
We bought a bunch of eggs at the gate of the scenic spot and brought them in, 4 pieces for 5 yuan, which is cheap. It is rumored that it is cooked in 10 minutes, our eggs are firm, and the 2 eggs are still yellowish after 10 minutes.
The "Big Rolling Pot" has opened a foot bath shop, 38 yuan per person. The foot bath water is very slippery, and I can't help but think of the phrase "hot spring water is smooth and gelatinous".
There are two hot spring places in Hot Sea Scenic Area: Yugu and Beauty Pool. We went to Yugu to enjoy the divine soup. There are more than 20 open-air and semi-open-air hot spring pools in Bath Valley. According to the addition of spring water, it is divided into special pools, the cedar pool made of cedar wood, the coffee pool mixed with Yunnan arabica coffee, the aloe pool with beauty and skin beautification functions, and even the wine pool with a certain proportion of koji. Sterilizes and detoxifies, and eliminates fatigue.
Sulfur hot springs are really rare in China, anyway, this is my first time soaking them.
After soaking in the hot springs, you will definitely be a little hungry. There are seven or eight kinds of snacks in Yugu, and they are free. Feel free to eat. What you eat is dim sum and what you feel is the culture of Atami.
Let's talk about Benno B&B again, because I changed rooms.
On the third day, the boss upgraded me to a VIP room. To enter the room, I had to go up a long wooden ladder.
What's worse, the area is more than 70 square meters, which is larger than the area of a house in other people's houses. It was designed by people from the capital, and it is a representative of Heshun B & B. Why not be extravagant?
I have a place to go for a walk after dinner.
I love the floor-to-ceiling windows of this room. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows are large rice fields, which instantly made me switch to vacation mode.
Cleaning the eyes with the lush greenery is a natural gift, and it is also given by the homestay.
The large floor-to-ceiling windows make the room very bright. Once you enter the room, you will be full of transparency, and the sunlight can pour into every corner.
The floor-to-ceiling windows are facing the west, which is the best direction to watch the sunset.
The indoor lighting is excellent, decorated with lighting and green plants, almost every corner can be a selfie background.
The wooden floor in the room, with its soft colors and linen curtains, shows a simple, fresh and original beauty, representing a unique Nordic style. Similarly, linen curtains look rough and wrinkled, but feel soft and delicate.
Drinking tea in this room is more advanced. There is a complete set of tea making utensils. It is wonderful to invite a few friends to drink tea here, chat and deepen the relationship! When I saw this tea set, I just wanted to calm down and make a pot of tea.
The TV screen was as big as a movie screen, and I had to step back to watch the show.
Japanese dry landscape bonsai dotted the huge room.
Wow, this bathtub is even more invincible, why use such a beautiful bathtub to seduce a poor man!
Connect directly with nature and take a celestial body bath. While soaking and bathing, you can admire the rice fields outside the window and the dormant volcano in the distance.
What must also be praised is of course the super large outdoor glass terrace, the area ratio is almost 1:1 between indoor and outdoor, and the view of the ancient town is better and the angle is better.
The viewing platform, with white walls and black lines, has its own rhythm. Sunrise and sunset, all have excellent scenery. Especially at night, when the mountain breeze blows slowly, you can have a glass of wine and chat about literature.
It's the feeling of heartbeat, it's so cool that I have no friends!
During the day, the sunlight pouring in through the large floor-to-ceiling windows warms the soft bed, and the night is as gentle as water, making for a good night's sleep.
After sleeping in this room, I really want to go home and tear down my bedroom and redecorate it.
We were most reluctant to leave, and Benno held a farewell dinner for us.
The dinner was set at the Dashuya Restaurant at the east end of the ancient town, and Ben Nuo was at the west end of the ancient town. From the west end to the east end, Manager Yao took us to the vegetable street. There are many specialty shops, which let me know that the ancient town is so big.
There are many special shops hidden on both sides of the narrow alley, a good place for young people.
You have to climb up the mountain to have dinner. This slope is called Yinjiapo. Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty rested here when he fled. He didn’t eat for a day. The local villagers gave him scrambled eggs with rice skin. Emperor Yongle felt delicious. Therefore, he was not starved to death, and later he named this dish "Dajiujia". Now, Tengchong stores have this signature dish.
Drinking bayberry wine in the main box on the fourth floor on the hillside, I like to be condescending like a great man, and the arrangement of Benno B&B is very suitable for me.
After dinner, my friends took the battery car back to the hotel, and I chose to walk back alone. I want to experience the ancient town slowly again, and the time left for me in the ancient town is running out.
The female owner of the old tea shop saw me taking pictures at the door, so she warmly invited me into the room and let me take pictures casually.
When I left, she sincerely delivered it to the door. It's hard not to get rich with this kind of hospitality.
Back to Benno, unload the exhaustion of the day, wash and sleep.
Day 4: Temple of the God of Wealth, Zhongtian Temple
When I got up in the morning on the fourth day, I received a message from my wife. It turned out that my birthday was coming. I was so busy all day long that I forgot myself, so I went downstairs to the kitchen and asked tentatively: Can you cook me a bowl of noodles? Add an egg in it. The cook readily agreed, and when the noodles were served, I was amazed that they looked so good.
After breakfast, all my partners left, and my flight was at 13:50 in the afternoon, so I went up to the back mountain of the ancient town alone.
The houses in this area retain the appearance of the past, and most of them are earthen houses.
There is a Temple of the God of Wealth on the mountain, which enshrines Guan Gong and other gods of wealth. I thought it was a flock of people, but I never thought that there would be many people. This is why.
The buildings in the hall are also dilapidated, and the lack of money for repairs makes me feel sorry for Mr. Guan.
Continue to go up the mountain for tens of meters, and you will arrive at Zhongtian Temple. This temple is magnificently built, which is in great contrast with the Temple of the God of Wealth at the foot of the mountain.
I love to go to temples, every temple must go, not to burn incense, just to appreciate its "intrigue".
The huge Zhongtian Temple, I turned around and didn't see a single monk. Could it be an empty temple? Impossible, Xiao Wang from the B&B before I came told me that the incense in the temple is very prosperous.
The chefs here don't like to burn incense, and the vegetarian food here is the belief of many people who have traveled thousands of miles.
Looking down the mountain from the Guanyin Temple, the ancient town surrenders at the foot of the temple, implying the salvation of all living beings.
Forget about Lijiang and Dali, Tengchong, with its world-class scenery, is the place to go when you go to Yunnan.
The perfect ending of this journey is closely related to Ben Nuo's thoughtfulness.
