travel caution

"One mountain has four seasons, ten miles have different weather" is a vivid description of the climate characteristics of Yunnan. May-October is the rainy season in Yunnan, and the dry season starts from November, and after the National Day, it is very suitable for traveling!

Before I went to Yunnan, I was still worried about whether I should take rhodiola or not. Facts tell me that it’s just floating clouds. Instead of thinking about rhodiola, I’d better bring an extra bottle of Po Chai Pills to prevent acclimation. (Direct flight to Shangri-Ge requires attention, more adaptability)

Yunnan is located on a plateau, with strong ultraviolet rays. Pay attention to sun protection, sunscreen, sunglasses, hats, umbrellas, and scarves are also acceptable. It is also beautiful to take pictures with. The temperature difference between morning and evening is large, so pay attention to bring cold clothes. Cold medicine, stomach medicine, anti-inflammatory medicine, Po Chai Pills, motion sickness medicine, etc., according to your own conditions. Also pay attention to moisturizing and remember to wear a mask. For friends who are not able to take a ride, remember to bring motion sickness, because the 18th bend of the mountain road in Lugu Lake can really make you bend out.

When you go out, you must keep a close eye on your belongings, as there are still many pickpockets near scenic spots.

In terms of transportation, I have experienced airplanes, chartered cars, carpooling, Didi, battery cars, buses, high-speed rails, and ships, which will be detailed below.

The text begins! ! !

Early flight: 6:25-9:10, watching the sunrise on the clouds is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off.

Remember to book air tickets in advance and keep an eye on air ticket updates (especially in peak seasons)! ! !

I got off the plane at 9:15, wrapped up my coat as soon as I got off the plane, and got on the pick-up locomotive for about 80rmb (booked with the inn) to the inn after taking the luggage.

When we went to Tinghuatang, seeing our thin clothes, Ryoko told us to go up to the second floor to lie in the sun. It felt super nice and warm to hold an umbrella or wear sunglasses.

The cured pork ribs in Lijiang should be selected from the local free-range pork ribs, marinated with appropriate amount of salt, pepper, spices, etc. for a day, then taken out and hung in a cool and ventilated place to dry. After more than ten days, the cured pork ribs are ready. It is similar to our Cantonese Lamei, and it is endless aftertaste when I think of it.

We saw a lot of cured pork ribs on the way back to the inn from the airport, and saw a lot of strategies before, so we chose to go to the third branch of Apo La Ribs (very close to the inn). The cured ribs can effectively combine the taste of meat and bone, so that The taste factor after pickling and drying can be easily distributed into the soup, and the soup is an important part of the hot pot. In this way, no matter what dish is boiled in the pot, the hot pot will be full of the rich aroma of cured pork ribs. It's full of fragrance and rich in taste.

Chickpea jelly, a special jelly snack in Lijiang, the main ingredients are chickpeas, etc., and the auxiliary materials are red pepper, green leek, pepper, green onion, mustard, sour vinegar, etc. The jelly looks black, so people also call it "black jelly".

One bite, it is cool and comfortable, it has both the solid feeling of beans and the coolness of jelly, and it is hard to stop eating it with accessories.

Start shopping when you are full. There are many trinkets in the ancient city, and the prices are relatively favorable. It is also good to choose trinkets as gifts. It is more popular now that the price is free, and you can buy it two or three days in advance. I can receive it at home, which is really good.

【Lijiang】

Lijiang Old Town, also known as Dayan Ancient Town, is one of the most famous towns on the Ancient Tea Horse Road with a history of more than 800 years. In the ancient city, there are wooden buildings with green tiles, ancient streets with stone alleys, small bridges and flowing water. Standing on the east street of the ancient city, you can look at the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the distance. Film and television dramas such as "One Meter of Sunshine" and "The Wind and Cloud in the Wood House" have been filmed here.

When you come to Lijiang in the off-season, there are no crowds. Walking the ancient city and bathing in the sun is also a kind of enjoyment.

Seeing the beautiful flower wall, I immediately took off my coat and rushed over to take a photo. In the end, I still couldn't escape Zhao Xiansen's black technique.

Lijiang Mufu is located in the ancient city of Lijiang. It was the palace of Lijiang Mu's chieftain in Lijiang. Since the Mu clan, the leader of the Naxi nationality, inherited the Lijiang Tuzhifu in Yuan (1253), it has gone through the 22 generations of Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties for 470 years. Therefore, Mufu is the Lijiang area. Political and cultural center, in 2013 it was a national AAAA-level scenic spot. The TV series "Mufu Fengyun", which tells the story of Lijiang's Mu family chieftain, was filmed here.

The stone archway in front of the gate of Mufu is built with white marble collected from the Jinsha River, 9 meters wide and 18 meters high. Four stone pillars support the monument, rafters, eaves and cover on the archway, and engraved on the plaque The word "loyalty" bestowed by Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty.

Enter from the Zhongyi Stone Archway and go to the left to buy tickets (online ticket exchange) - check in and enter.

Tickets purchased online are 40 yuan/person, a small gift is given, and the tour guide gives free explanations.

Stepping into the majestic red gate of the Mu Mansion, the central axis is lined up with the meeting hall, Wanjuan building, Dharma protection hall, Guangbi building, Yuyin building, Sanqing hall and other buildings, all of which are exquisite. On both sides of the central axis, there are more than 160 houses, including supporting halls, attics, street-crossing buildings, courtyards, official posts, and promenades.

After you come in, there will be a golden flower asking you to take a photo, you can take a photo, and in the end it will be made into a small keychain as a small gift for you.

Standing in the center, symmetrical on both sides, for my "perfectionist", of course, the small game of finding differences cannot be missed.

The Wanjuan Building is a manifestation of Mu's chieftain's admiration for culture. It is said that thousands of volumes of the Dongba Sutra, a hundred volumes of the Tripitaka, Liugong Tusi's poetry collections, and many famous scholars' calligraphy and paintings were hidden in the past.

The tour guide said that the two trees are called "Ziwei". I don't know if the expression is wrong. Anyway, this is the pronunciation. The sentence "Do you still remember Xia Yuhe by the Daming Lake?"

Of course, you can't miss the photo with Ziwei. When we got here, the tourists who followed the tour guide went to drink tea. We couldn't stay idle, so we climbed up near the Lion Rock to take pictures.

A house roof, a family, separated from each other, but closely connected, the ashes seem to tell the old days of the past.

Lion Rock, located in the center of Lijiang Old Town in the ancient city of Lijiang City, is an important part of the world cultural heritage of Lijiang Old Town and the main scenic spot of the national scenic spot. The mountain is named for its resemblance to a sleeping lion. The buildings of the ancient city surround the foot of the Lion Mountain. It is the best place to enjoy the panoramic view of the ancient city of Lijiang.

I wanted to go up, but I felt powerless. With today's morning flight, we were already exhausted and it was really not suitable for us to continue going up, so we went down the mountain.

I ordered a cup of rose yogurt and mango yogurt, and sat quietly, chatting, watching people coming and going on the street, enjoying the slow life in Lijiang.

This dog is kinda cool.

The pineapple cake looks pretty good, but it's really hard to eat. Zhao Xiansen and I gave up after taking a bite. (10 yuan/copy)

It is said that Lijiang is easy to visit at night, so let's go back to the inn to rest and tidy up before setting off. Piggyback fruits (you can see them everywhere in the ancient city of Lijiang, 9.6/9.5/6.5/6.6 yuan per catty, after trying 9.5 yuan per catty, Zhao Xiansen gave up after seeing the color, I really don’t understand how much a pig can demand so much)

Because of the weather in Yunnan, my hair was throwing a temper tantrum and knotted all the time, so I was always looking for a hair salon. At the same time, it is also for better nightlife, haha.

There are three snack streets in the ancient city of Lijiang, this one is the most prosperous, and the other two are basically empty.

Seeing the eighth monster in Yunnan, grasshoppers can be eaten with wine. It's a pity that we are not interested, so we have to try other features. Facts tell me that it is not authentic, only wrapped tofu can eat more!

Impressive pregnant tofu, the name can be named, and the taste is indeed. . .

As night falls, the singing of bars, the drumming of shops, and the laughter of tourists... all make this city of love affairs more beautiful and moving.

Take a paper lantern, bring a wish, and let the flowing water bring the wish in my heart to the distant relatives.

Lijiang, under the accusation of "over-development and serious commercialization", still can't stop people from traveling thousands of miles to have a look.

Maybe slow life is the right way to open it. You can stroll through the ancient city during the day, go to the hospital in the street, appreciate the Naxi ethnic architecture, and sit on Sifang Street, chat with the old Naxi lady, and feel the local culture; you can even enter the bar at night to experience Let's take a look at how the city of Aventure, which is said by word of mouth, happened.

Lijiang Old Town, I hope to get along with you slowly next time.

【Lugu Lake】

Lugu Lake is located on the border between Yunnan and Sichuan, with an altitude of 2,685 meters. It is the highest lake in Yunnan Province. The Mosuo people who live by the lake on the Yunnan side follow the walking marriage system of "no marriage between men and women", so Lugu Lake is also known as "the country of daughters in the East".

How to go to Lugu Lake:

One, take the bus from Lijiang Passenger Station, from Lijiang to Lugu Lake directly, there are two buses every morning at 9:00 and 10:00, the journey takes about 5 hours, and the fare is 65 yuan (including 2 yuan insurance fee); The route is Lijiang Passenger Station - Lugu Lake Passenger Station (Daluoshui Village). You can book tickets on behalf of Yunqi Lijiang Inn and Lijiang Lvxing Outdoor Club; if you return to Lijiang from Lugu Lake, you need to book tickets at Lugu Lake Passenger Station (Daluoshui Village), and each inn in Lugu Lake also provides free booking service, every morning There are two trains at 10:00 and 12:00.

The second is to take the Lugu Lake Tourist Line Bus, which has about 19 seats, and the round-trip fare is 140 yuan. It passes through Daluoshui Village and finally parks in Lige Village. It picks up people at the Dashuiche in the ancient city at 07:40 every morning, or at 08:30 Depart from the ancient city parking lot.

Third, it is a tourist charter car. The price varies according to different models, with an average of 400-600 yuan a day.

Fourth, it is to go to Ninglang County first, and then to Lugu Lake. Lijiang Bus Station has many buses to Ninglang, and the slow pace of Lijiang is also reflected in the departure time. The earliest bus leaves at 7:30 in the morning and the last bus at 3:00 in the afternoon. There are 10 buses throughout the day Shuttle bus, fare 40 yuan / person. The road conditions are not particularly good, and it takes 4 hours to drive the 125 kilometers.

Fifth, it is a carpool or a business group, with an average of 300-400 yuan.

Reminder: Generally, it takes more than 6 hours to take a bus or a tourist bus, and it takes more than 4 hours to go there by chartered car or carpool. There are 3 stops in the middle of the pavilion, and the chartered car or carpool is more comfortable.

We booked a carpool with the inn the day before (150 yuan/person for Lugu Lake round-trip) business car, and got on the car at Bailong Square at 7:45 in the morning. I started rushing as soon as I got up, and I didn’t even have time to eat breakfast (breakfast time is 8:00), so I bought Xiaolongbao and soy milk and got on the bus. I wanted to eat but found that I didn’t have an appetite, because I just wanted to spend the eighteen bends in my sleep ,Ha ha.

The journey lasted more than 4 hours, and there were three stops in total. There are things for sale at the rest stops, such as corn, eggs, fruits, etc. There are public toilets. Don’t expect too much. It’s a very public feeling. Forget about the sink.

Take a break at the first stop, come down to take a road photo, and rub my sleepy eyes by the way.

At the rest point at the second stop, I still couldn’t be happy in the face of an hour and a half away. I stopped again with 20 minutes before the end, but I didn’t take any photos. I just wanted to sit in the car.

Entering the ticket buying area, everyone has to get off the bus to buy tickets (no ID card required). Tickets to Lugu Lake in off-season are 70 yuan, and usually 100 yuan.

Active soldiers, students, disabled people, and senior citizens aged 60-70 can enjoy a 50% discount when purchasing tickets with valid certificates.

Children under 1.30 meters, active disabled soldiers, elderly people over 70 years old, and retired cadres can buy tickets for free with valid certificates.

When I saw this scene, I was stunned. Everything seemed so unreal, which cured my depressed mood for more than 4 hours. Even though I have seen it many times in pictures, it is still so heartwarming to see it with my own eyes.

In this place, the team captain was telling us some precautions. I think it’s pretty good. At least I was persuaded to join their business group (I didn’t join them at the beginning because I felt that the degree of freedom was not too high. Later, I became more determined. thought) lol.

Precautions:

1. There are three ways to go around Lugu Lake, chartered car/carpool, ride a bike, and ride an electric bike (it has been banned since this year, and people have died because there are no fences and the roads are not easy to drive).

2. When eating, pay attention to asking the price before eating. It is very important to clearly mark the price.

3. Many chartered drivers in Lugu Lake do not have a driver's license, so their lives are not guaranteed.

4. You need to choose a good boatman to take a pig boat. How many boats will take you to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha?

5. The bonfire party should be played in the original village, which is the most authentic.

I think the latter two points are a bit... lol. Experience it yourself.

In the case of what he said, for us who are newcomers, there is no doubt that we joined the business group, and the driver brother took us to the inn to clean up and continue to set off in the afternoon.

The lake in the inn is super nice, and it is a good place to take pictures. Unfortunately, there are very few photo spots in the inn during this trip.

I went to the inn after 1 o'clock and set off at 2 o'clock, so I ordered local chicken rice noodles and yak meat rice noodles.

The first stop was Lover's Beach, which was a large sloping land. Of course, I was very excited as the first stop. There were so many people, all vying to take pictures at the rock in Lover's Beach.

We didn't squeeze in, so we took a lover's photo here at the lover tree, hehe.

The water is very clear, and I can't help but think of Liu Zongyuan's "Little Rock Pool" "When you see a small pool, the water is especially clear"

With the business group, the fellow travelers are not too keen on playing and taking pictures, so I always take care of them, snap a few photos and get on the car to the next scenic spot. This kind of feeling is really bad.

I wanted to take a photo in the middle of this road, but unfortunately there are many vehicles passing by, and it is at a turning point. Whenever I go out, I will be forced to come back. After many times, I gave up.

The driver brother said that the hill was shaped like a crocodile, and asked us to come down to take pictures, and the results proved to be good.

You have to stand on the raised stone on the ground to touch the crocodile's head. I don't know which genius left the stone.

The blue lake surface corresponds to the sky, and a few white clouds float by in the distance from time to time. Standing like this, time seems to be frozen at this moment, but the heart that beats because of it is still beating faster.

Lugu Lake Observation Deck is located next to the Ninglu Highway on the south bank of Lugu Lake. It is the best place to watch and take pictures of the panorama of Lugu Lake. You can have a panoramic view of the entire lake, the blue lake water, the blue sky, the lake shore surrounded by green trees, and the beautiful Lige Peninsula, together form a wonderful picture.

May this blue heart never be polluted by the world, and stay pure forever.

Take a photo in front of this blue heart, and wish his heart is like mine, and I will always miss him forever.

Luyuan Cliff, many prayer flags and a mani pile, is very beautiful. Walking down the stairs is very emotional, it seems that every step down is the call of the heart from the beautiful scenery in the distance.

These square, angular, and strip-shaped small flags are fixed on the gates, ropes, family buildings, and tree branches in an orderly manner, and they flutter and sway between the earth and the sky, forming a realm that connects the earth to the sky. Strings of colorful flags hung between pavilions and pine trees are printed with densely packed Tibetan mantras, scriptures, Buddha statues, and mascot graphics. They are the "wind horse flags" that are popular in Tibetan areas.

I heard from the locals that every time the prayer flags are blown, they will be blessed once, so the prayer flags cannot be touched.

Every time I see this kind of blessings and wish words, I will feel touched, and I wish my loved ones good health.

The colorful prayer flags form a beautiful landscape by themselves, sending beautiful blessings with the wind in this fairyland.

Take a personal photo of my family Zhao Xiansen who thinks he is handsome.

Step by step, embark on the journey, no matter the wind and rain, still move forward.

A box of mango is 15 yuan, very sweet, worth a push!

Nisai Village is a natural village of the Mosuo nationality on the bank of Lugu Lake. The village is very small, with only a dozen families, but it is very quiet and the scenery is very beautiful. The famous lover's tree in Lugu Lake is here, and it is a popular place for tourists to take pictures and experience romance. It is also a good place to watch the sunrise!

At that time, I only thought about Siberian seagulls and pig trough boats, and forgot about the lover tree.

I think the color of the pig trough boat here is very beautiful, very girlish.

Here you can buy small dried fish to feed seagulls, 10 yuan a pack. Seeing that these two sisters are so hardworking, I will try too, haha.

This is the biggest fish in that pack. Whoever gets it.

Sitting on a pig trough boat, the breeze blows, and my brother is opposite. When the four eyes meet, time seems to stand still.

Walking along the plank road, there are all the scenery.

This is also a fun check-in point. I saw a tour guide leading tourists to swing their feet here. I don’t know what the effect was. Now I think about it, but I’m full of interest.

At the dividing line between Yunnan and Sichuan, we have been waiting for this aunt to drive away, but she just parked here, speechless. . .

Arriving at an unknown scenic spot, the driver brother said that you can see the outlet of Lugu Lake here.

Of course, the first thing you can smell when you come up here is the smell of pee, but it doesn’t affect the tourists to come up to Lele, pretending to touch it, but in fact, I’m super afraid that it will suddenly rush down, haha.

It's a pity that I don't know how to pose when taking pictures at Internet celebrity attractions, which is a bit embarrassing. (10 yuan per person)

Afternoon tea, time is 16:53 pm, this chicken is not bad.

After having a full afternoon tea, I went to visit the grandmother's house and learned about the Mosuo culture. Since I can't take pictures, I will briefly talk about this.

- The male is called Elder Brother, and the female is Amei.

- To enter the grandmother's room, you must enter with your left foot and exit with your right foot.

- After entering the door, you can see that the grandmother's house is supported by two pillars, which respectively represent the "male pillar" and "female pillar", and the male pillar and the female pillar must come from the same tree, the male pillar is the trunk, and the female pillar The pillars are the roots and are placed on the left and right, symbolizing the social concept of "women are the bottom of men". The female pillar is placed in the center, which means that the woman is the pillar of the family, and their coming-of-age ceremony is to stand under the pillar and receive gifts.

- You can also see a door inside, which is called the "Gate of Life and Death", which is of great significance. Because the Mosuo people believe that there is a cycle of life and death, their life and death must be carried out in the same place. In this family, if a child is to be born, it must be delivered by the grandmother inside this door. This is the so-called "birth". "Death" means that after the death of the old grandmother, the corpse should be stored here. Of course, it is only temporary, but the storage time varies from two to three days to seven to seventy-nine days. They need to count the days before they are carried out for cremation .

There are many more that I don't remember very clearly, only scattered fragments remain. When I listened to it on the spot, I found it very beneficial. I think this is the most precious place in travel. In a strange place, I learned about different ways of life, so that I can understand the colorfulness of life.

After talking about a lot of content, I started to sell silverware, 18.8 yuan/gram. We didn’t buy it later, but the sister took us to the big shopping spot with a dark face. As a result, we came out quickly, and sure enough It's too dark to be darker, and the tone is more aggressive.

For dinner, there are many types, but the taste is just so-so.

The Mosuo bonfire party is a witness of the love between Mosuo men and women. Mosuo women participate in the bonfire party, looking for their ideal in the dark. When a man meets a woman he likes, he will invite her to dance together. If you want to pick a woman's palm with your fingers, do it three times. In this way, "secretly send a glance". If the woman is interested, she will go back and tell the man the location of the flower building.

After 12 o'clock at night, the man comes to get married. He will have to pass three levels. One is to climb over the courtyard wall, which is not difficult; As long as you bring some dogs that love to eat, you can pass the customs; third, the door latch of the wooden house in the flower building where the woman lives is long and thick, and the man needs to cut off the latch with a long knife to enter the door. Therefore, after the Chengding ceremony, Mosuo men will carry swords with them.

Although it is a walking marriage, brother is also very good to sister. Brother will buy everything that sister likes. If you don’t like it, sister will put the token of love on the shoes at the door. Brother will walk to see at night You will understand when you arrive, and you will not come again.

In the end, everyone went down to hold hands and dance, picking palms, haha.

The next day is to take the pig trough boat and walk the marriage bridge, and each person pays the driver 30 yuan for the fare. The boat fare is 100 yuan per person.

Regarding the formation of Lugu Lake, there is an interesting local story: In the distant era, there used to be a village here. There is an orphan in the village who goes to Lion Mountain to graze every day. As long as people hand over their cattle and sheep to him, he will always make them fat and strong. One day, he fell asleep under a tree on the mountain. He dreamed that a big fish said to him: "Good boy, you are so pitiful. From now on, you don't have to bring lunch, just cut off the flesh on my body and eat it." Let’s go.” After the child woke up, he went to the mountain to search and search, and finally found the big fish in a cave, so he cut off a piece and roasted it, the fish meat was delicious. The next day, he went again, and the place where he cut yesterday was full of meat again. This matter was known by a greedy man in the village. He wanted to take the big fish as his own, so he invited some greedy people to tie the fish with ropes, and let nine horses and nine cows pull hard together, and the fish was pulled out. hole, and disaster strikes. From that hole, flood water gushed out, submerging the village in an instant. At that time, there was a Mosuo woman who was feeding pigs, and two young children were playing beside her. Seeing the flood coming, the mother took advantage of her wits and carried the two children into the pig trough, but she died in the water. The two children sat in the trough to bear the water drift, and later, they became the ancestors of this place. In order to commemorate the great mother, people took the whole piece of wood to make a "pig trough boat". Lugu Lake is also called Mother Lake.

When I set off, I felt a little excited. I took the mobile phone to pat left and right, but I was afraid that the phone would drop, haha.

The aunt on the boat kept asking us to buy bread to feed the seagulls, 20 yuan a pack, just a little, and suddenly felt that the food of the seagulls was better than ours, and we didn't buy it. The auntie said in local words that these rich people are reluctant to buy it. But I didn't know that they were the richest people, haha.

The purpose of going around the lake is to experience it. I am not very interested in the island. After sitting for more than two hours, my butt hurts.

Walking Marriage Bridge is located on the east side of Lugu Lake, across the grass sea of ​​floating reeds, and is a famous landscape around Lugu Lake. The Mosuo people follow the custom of walking marriage that "men do not marry, and women do not marry". During the walking marriage, the men will go to the woman's home through the walking marriage bridge, so this bridge is also called "the first magpie bridge in the world".

Even if you don’t come to the Marriage Bridge, you don’t count as a visit to Lugu Lake. I was looking forward to it, but the bridge is full of sellers, and there are children pestering you to buy things. It’s super commercial, and it’s hard to find a place to take pictures.

As for walking the Marriage Bridge, the total length is 300 meters. It is not suitable for people with a partner to walk the whole way, because it also symbolizes the end of love.

Continue with concave shape.

We still have to hold hands on the marriage bridge, but there are hawkers selling things at the front and back, so we choose left and right, and as a result, we hinder other people's progress and get robbed of the camera by others. It feels really unromantic.

Lugu Lake, this time we met, the beauty was solitary and amazing. Looking back on the first time I saw you, I still couldn't restrain my heart that was pounding for you. If you listen quietly, you will hear my heartbeat beating faster, which is my silent confession to you. After getting along, you are still conquered by your blue sky, mirror-like lake, and beautiful scenery. I hope that next time I come, I can return home as before.

For lunch, we choose to eat stone pot fish near the inn. First heat the pot, then add the freshly slaughtered fish, pour in the soup and seasonings, boil the pot for about 20 minutes, and then you can taste it. The fish is fresh and smooth, very tasty, the soup is delicious and delicious, and a watery flower is added at the end. I feel that it is no different from ordinary dishes, but it is less sweet.

At 1:30, I set off from Lugu Lake Dashuishui and returned to Lijiang Old Town, just in time to take another shot, haha. Then take Didi to Shuhe Tinghuatang, where you will stay tonight.

Wrapped tofu is tofu with soy milk in the middle, flipped and fried on an iron plate, sprinkled with pepper and other seasonings, and the final product is crispy and tender on the outside, fresh and tender on the inside, just like old tofu wrapped with watery tofu, with a little soy milk It will flow out when eating.

Put your luggage and come out to look for food immediately. Grandma Wen’s chef, this is the authentic wrapped tofu. Eat it while it’s hot. It’s tender and smooth. You can feel the soy milk sliding in your mouth, which is super good. The grilled fish is also quite good, the grilling time is just right, crispy but not mushy, a bit spicy for us, it is acceptable.

Located in the northwest of Lijiang Old Town, Shuhe Ancient Town was an important stop on the Ancient Tea Horse Road. The ancient town is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and its structural layout is similar to that of the ancient city of Dayan. What is rare is that due to the late development of tourism, Shuhe Ancient Town is much quieter and simpler than Dayan Ancient Town.

We only came to Shuhe River this time, and did not go deep, which is really a pity.

It is said that when you come to Lijiang, you don’t come to Lijiang if you don’t go to the bar to experience it. If you didn’t go in when you were in the ancient city, come to Shuhe to experience it.

Two people who had never drunk came to the bar and asked if there was any drink, which made the waiter look confused, haha. In the end, I ordered two glasses of cocktails with Sprite, and adjusted the concentration to the lowest level. I drank less than half of it, and Zhao Xiansen finished it under coercion.

With the help of the lady in the inn, we chartered a car (560 yuan) from Shuhe to Shaxi Ancient Town, and we arrived at 9:00 or 10 in the morning, so fast!

Shaxi used to be an important station on the ancient tea-horse road. With the decline of the ancient tea-horse road, it was gradually forgotten. But because of this, now Shaxi is quieter and more primitive, and better retains the style of the tea-horse town in the past. There is a famous saying in northwestern Yunnan: When you pass Dali and Lijiang, don’t miss Shaxi.

There is another saying, if you missed Lijiang more than ten years ago, come to Shaxi to see it.

When I arrived at the inn, I liked it very much as soon as I saw it, and the boss was also enthusiastic. I heard that the boss also has Rose Manor, but we didn't come out at the scheduled time, so we were bitter.

The periphery of the room can be described as antique, and I couldn't help but pat it.

For food in Shaxi, there are three options. First, there are several relatively independent restaurants on both sides of Sideng Street. Second, some are restaurants inside the inn, and the environment is relatively simple. Three, similar to food stalls and the like, the heat is enough and the taste is good.

For lunch, we chose Xilu Xiaoyuan, which belongs to the inn. Dianping navigated to it, and the people inside are busy with their own things. They will not entertain you very warmly, but it feels like home.

Herb pork ribs, the ribs are marinated with marinade, wrapped with herbs, deep-fried in a pan, and lettuce is laid on the bottom.

Tree flower scrambled eggs, tree flower is a lichen plant that grows on the branches of old oak trees. It is named after its image of blooming flowers. Add fried eggs, don't have a taste.

Shaxi Ancient Town, a hot place due to foreign friends, can meet many foreigners here.

Sideng Street is the only surviving market on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, and it is also the center of Shaxi Ancient Town.

Strolling and listening to the sound of water, joy comes from the sky, if there is no God's will, how could such a scene be possible.

The fallen leaves intentionally follow the flowing water, and the flowing water has no intention of falling in love with the fallen leaves.

I also want to lie down and enjoy the sunshine like a dog. slowly.

The ancient stage is the most distinctive building on Sifang Street in Sideng. It is located in the center of the building complex on the east side of Sifang Street. The ancient stage and Xingjiao Temple echo each other. On national festivals, the Bai people in the whole town will dress up in festive costumes and play the dragon-head sanxian. They gather in Sifang Street to sing and dance on the stage. There are crowds of people on Sifang Street, and the faithful men and women in Xingjiao Temple worship gods and Buddhas. It is a happy and auspicious time . Among them, the most lively one is the annual lunar "February 8th" prince meeting.

Xingjiao Temple is a major attraction in Shaxi. It is the only remaining Ming Dynasty "Atuoli" Buddhist temple of the Bai nationality in China. The murals and carvings inside are worth savoring carefully. Tickets are 20 yuan. The reason I went in was because I wanted to take pictures, lol. I didn't pay much attention to the murals inside, but the inside is not too big, and there are not many things to see.

Please enjoy the works of my family Zhao Xiansen below.

For taking pictures, I have to take them against the cold wind, and I put on my little padded jacket immediately after taking pictures, so I caught a cold gorgeously during this trip.

keep going! ! !

Yujin Bridge is the first bridge to Dali and the only way for all caravans from south to north.

The piers and abutments are poured with lime mortar, and the arch circle is bonded with glutinous rice pulp ash. What is particularly worth mentioning is the production and strength of the glutinous rice pulp ash. First, use glutinous rice to cook porridge, then soak cotton paper and pound it into pulp, and then mix the glutinous rice porridge, pulp, and lime until it becomes sticky. The cohesion and strength of glutinous rice pulp ash are comparable to that of cement. The ancients made full use of existing materials and used the properties of different substances to synthesize them. It is an ingenious idea of ​​the ancient stone arch bridge structure.

There is a horse farm here, and you can ride horses. As soon as we started to take pictures, the horse-leader came and asked us to ride horses. Just as we had this intention, we hit it off and rode to the highest point on the opposite side, overlooking Shaxi. It took 1.5 hours and cost 80 yuan per person.

At the end of the harvest season, the crops in the field were almost harvested, leaving only a few green vegetables. Riding past, watching the women in the field tending vegetables, their cheeks flushed with sun, and sweat flowing down their cheeks, the words "work at sunrise and rest at sunset" came to mind.

Seeing this picture, I really want to play the music of Journey to the West, the second brother is taking pictures behind me, haha.

It was very quiet, and when there was no chatting, only the sound of bells and horseshoes, jingling, tick-tock, played naturally in my heart. Favorability for Shaxi soared.

The elder brother who leads the horse said that the bell is for the horse to be emboldened, and also to let the horseman know the position of the horse. What I said here is a bit awkward, but listening to the big brother say it has a very vivid feeling.

When we came to the Cape of Good Hope in Shaxi, we didn't go in to take pictures, and we were too lazy to dismount, haha.

Looking down from a high place, the state of mind becomes very open, and I take a big breath of air, and I feel that my mood has become particularly good.

The selfie is stinky, but my brother took a picture of me, haha.

This is the correct way to open. I have a white horse that can be proud of the world.

After a short rest, the eldest brother separated our two horses and let us ride back by ourselves. It really made me understand the phrase "Laoma Zhitu". Along the way, my elder brother also told me a lot about horses, which I have almost forgotten in my mind, so I can’t give you the details here.

I really like this one. Standing on the bridge, there is a feeling of being proud of the Jianghu, but my brother's skills need to be improved. I took 10 photos in a row, all of which were the same, which is amazing my brother, haha.

My second senior brother said he wanted to take the high-cold route, but he just didn’t know how to make facial expressions, haha.

Everyone likes to smile when taking pictures, and a smile is contagious. I laughed, the instant noodles are like spring flowers, it must be able to touch people, no matter who he is.

The expressions of the two horse gods synchronized.

Keep patting.

This picture is so beautiful that my phone can't capture its beauty. Standing on the bridge and looking at the scenery, the sunset is gradually setting in the west. On the sparkling water, the horses are looking down for food.

Looking at the bridge from different directions, it has different feelings. On the other side, it feels like spring, while on this side, it feels like autumn is bleak.

If life is only as it was first seen, why is the autumn wind sadly drawing a fan. In my memory, there is a young girl standing on the bridge, and a high-spirited boy standing under the bridge. The most is the first glimpse, and I will never forget it ever since. If you don't love lovesickness in your life, you will love it, and you will hurt lovesickness.

Cow dung is very common on the road, but it does not make people feel disgusted, but has a kind and natural sense of belonging.

Compared with the tall and mighty stone city gates in other places, the gate of the village is a bit shabby, rustic and narrow, but it shows the world the appearance of the city gate of the ancient tea-horse road market— —Adobe wall gate that only allows two horses to pass through at the same time. There are three gates in Sideng Ancient Street - Dongzhai Gate (leading to the Dali area), Nanzhai Gate (connecting the south and west of the ancient town to the western Yunnan salt well), and Beizhai Gate (leading to the Tibet area).

There is still some time before dinner, so we will go back to the inn to rest and take a nap to make up for the exhaustion of the past few days, haha.

Gudao Huifeng Restaurant, the environment is not as good as the one at noon, a bit like a roadside food stall. But this fried chicken is not bad, the signature signature.

In the evening, there will be small roadside stalls. Just because of this first sight, I have been addicted to Milletweed ever since. Wherever I went, I saw Milletweed and took my second senior brother to buy it, and a certain pig was also there. Encouragement there, haha.

As the night gradually deepens, the light quietly hides the noise of the day, and then changes it into beautiful colors. The people sitting and chatting under the tree reminded me of the time when there was no TV and technology was not so developed. In the evening, children would play in groups, hide and seek, 123 wooden figures, throw sandbags... Grandpas and mothers-in-law would fan their fans and talk about the past. The streets and alleys, the sound of laughter, the sound of bicycle bells, the sound of mother calling for dinner, and the occasional voice of aunts carrying tofu flowers and Guiling jelly made the streets and alleys special. lively.

Today is fifteen, the moon is very round, so we decided to chase the moon.

On the head of willow branches on the moon, people make an appointment after dusk.

I have been taking photos here for a long time but I haven't taken any satisfactory photos. The wind is blowing, so I still choose to go back to the bed to keep warm, haha.

The hard work is the most pity for the sky and the moon, the past is like a ring, and the past and the past are like a ring.

The moon is the most capable of seducing love, thinking, and soul. The hearts of thousands of wanderers are all known by the bright moon.

Shaxi ancient town, come and don't want to return, go and return. Here, you can experience the authentic Shaxi style; here, you can appreciate the glory of the Tea Horse Road in the past; here, you can find the feeling of returning to nature. Really miss Dali, pass by Lijiang, don't miss Shaxi.

Western breakfast, like it. The boss will ask you whether to eat Chinese or Western style one day in advance, so warm.

Today is sixteen, there is a market in Shaxi, but unfortunately we have to rush to the next place, life is always a bit regretful, I can only comfort myself like this.

My family, Zhao Xiansen, said: How to get two suitcases, you can just bring the suitcases. He said: You didn't bring thick clothes, I bought down. (The small backpack also contains down). He said: buy, buy, eat, eat. He said:. . . . . .

A good man, although the price of pork has risen, but he will not be sold, haha.

From Shaxi to Dali Ancient City, we take a green minibus at Shaxi Passenger Terminal (at least 7 people drive, fare: 13rmb/person) to Jianchuan Bus Station, take Jianchuan-Xiachuan CMB (fare: 48rmb/person) ), you can get off at the ancient city of Dali, but we passed the station, got off at the terminal, and then returned to the ancient city by Didi (50rmb). From 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., I didn’t eat lunch. They all said it was too much trouble, so I would have chartered a car if I knew it, haha.

Always forget to take a photo of the facade, just take this one. In order not to rush back and forth, I stayed in Mingyue Hall for two nights, which is a picturesque courtyard.

Put your luggage away and rush to our destination today, the Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple. (The inn has a special car to send it, which is awesome)

Ctrip booked tickets on the same day, round-trip battery car + tickets (198rmb/two people), but it will take effect after 4 o'clock, which wasted more than an hour for us. There were a lot of jokes at that time, so I suggest you book tickets in advance!

There are a lot of these snacks outside the door, let’s fill up your stomach temporarily, it’s quite unpalatable, naturally the second senior brother can’t eat it, haha.

Chongsheng Temple is located 1.5 kilometers north of Dali Ancient City. It was a royal temple during the Dali Kingdom. It is adjacent to Erhai Lake in the east and Yingle Peak in Cangshan Mountain in the west. The scenery is very beautiful. The Three Pagodas used to be part of the Chongsheng Temple. The temple we see today is rebuilt, and the Three Pagodas are relics with a history of thousands of years. They are also the biggest attraction here.

Book tickets online, enter directly with your ID card, and avoid queuing up for ticket inspection.

The closing time is 6 o'clock, and we don't have much time for those who enter the venue after 4 o'clock, so we can only watch the flowers on horseback. Use the order number to exchange for a battery car ticket, and take a ride to the best viewing point.

The battery car is parked on the left side of the Daxiong Palace. After getting off the car, go straight up to the Jiulong Yufochi.

Chongsheng Temple uses fine white marble from Fujian Province, Putian green grass stone and white marble as the main materials, and many stone carving works of art have been carved in the temple. Among them, the Longchi in front of the mountain gate is based on the description of "Tianlong Temple" in Jin Yong's novel "Tianlong Babu", based on the natural shape of a large bluestone with a height of 5 meters and a width of 4.5 meters dug at the original site. It is carved into a giant dragon head with a height of 4.5 meters and a width of 4.2 meters. A pool with a width of 7 meters, a radius of 3.7 meters and a depth of 0.6 meters is built under the faucet. The Kowloon Bathing Prince Fountain in front of the Acuoye Guanyin Pavilion is based on the legend of the Kowloon Bathing Prince. The Kowloon and the Prince are carved into a group of landscapes in the form of stone carvings, and the combination of stone carvings and high-tech fountains reflects the real effect of bathing Buddha.

I would like to explain here that because of my belief in Guanyin Buddha statues, I seldom take photos of them. If you are interested, you can go to Baidu to search.

Right in front is the Daxiong Palace, overlooking Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake in the past, which has a sense of grandeur.

When touching this white jade, I wish I could go back to that time and witness this different prosperity.

My second senior brother has been asking for the wreath because he doesn't want to take it, haha.

No car yet, continue to stroll around.

I asked the second senior brother to take a picture of the feeling that the whole corridor belongs to me, and it turned out. . .

Or sit and rest.

Every time I see this kind of blessing, my mood will become very calm, and I will quietly put my thoughts on the red rope, hoping to know that I understand my heart.

The Daxiong Hall is modeled after the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City in Beijing. It has double eaves and nine bays in the Qing Dynasty. It has a three-story platform. The hall is 51.7 meters wide and 26 meters high. "Zhang Shengwen Picture Scroll" is carved into a 1.8-meter-high, 117-meter-long woodcarving long scroll, which is installed in a giant Buddhist niche with a height of 2.03 meters and a length of 119 meters on the four walls of the Daxiong Hall. And the "Buddha's own story" (the story of the Tathagata Buddha from birth, renunciation, becoming a Buddha, founding Buddhism, spreading Buddhism to disciples, popularizing Buddhism, respecting the Buddha, and passing away) was painted into 18 patterns and carved into the eighteen grids of the Daxiong Hall. Door. The Daxiong Hall is the highest-level building in the Chongsheng Temple and is located in the center of the temple.

I really like this kind of architecture, and it makes me feel very familiar to people who have been addicted to novels about loyalty and wandering since I was a child.

In the Patriarch Hall, there are six Zen ancestors of Bodhidharma, Huike, Sengcan, Daoxin, Hongren, and Huineng in the hall. The six ancestors of Zen are all sitting statues, 6 meters high, without gold.

Seeing a good place to take pictures, I rushed there with my second senior brother.

Me: Do you point out the stalking system to make me feel so bad?

Second senior brother: You are so bad yourself, blame me.

This conversation was repeated countless times throughout our trip lol.

Looking at the back view, thousands of troops are hurriedly braked, and they turn their heads to scare off millions of troops.

I wanted to take advantage of the strong wind to create a sense of elegance, but I couldn't keep my eyes open, and it was super cold.

Take the car down to the Three Pagodas.

The three pagodas of Chongsheng Temple are composed of one big and two small ones, and the big one is called Qianxun Pagoda.

The distance between Qianxun Pagoda and the two small pagodas in the north and south is 70 meters, forming a three-legged stand. The existing Qianxun Pagoda is 69.13 meters high and 9.9 meters wide at the bottom. It is a square hollow brick pagoda with dense eaves. It has 16 levels in total. It is one of the tallest existing pagodas in China. The typical building is also similar to Xi'an Small Wild Goose Pagoda in shape, and it is one of the typical tower styles of the Tang Dynasty. The inner wall of the tower is vertically connected up and down, and there are wooden stairs.

We wanted to take reflections, so we headed to the Pool of Reflections.

When you see the firecrackers, of course you can't let them go.

Pao Zong Hua is native to Brazil, South America, and has been widely cultivated as an ornamental rattan plant in tropical Asia. When I was young, I liked to use it as a firecracker, full of memories.

When Hong Kong returned to China in 1997, Nanzhao was rebuilt and the Great Bell Tower was rebuilt, and the Great Clock was recast. It was designed by Beijing Ancient Bell Museum according to historical data and cast by Nanjing Chenguang Machine Factory. The body of the recast Jian Great Clock is divided into upper and lower layers. The upper layer is decorated with six patterns of Parami, and the lower layer is decorated with six statues of heavenly kings. It is 3.86 meters high, 2.138 meters in diameter, and weighs 16.295 tons. The recast Nanzhao Jianda Bell is the fourth largest bell cast by China since the Opium War in China, and the largest bell in Yunnan Province.

Because I didn't go in to watch it, I borrowed a picture from the Internet.

Turning right is Juying Pool, which is the best place to take pictures of the Three Towers of Reflection.

There are still a lot of people taking pictures, you have to wait and squeeze to get a picture, haha.

I like the weather in Yunnan, the sky is always dotted with clouds when needed, great.

Exit from the north gate, and the visit to the Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple is over.

【Dali Ancient City】

Dali Ancient City is located in the west of Yunnan Province, also known as Yeyu City and Zicheng. The history of the ancient city can be traced back to the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty. The Yangjumei City built by Nanzhao King Geluofeng was its new capital. The ancient city was built in the fifteenth year of Ming Hongwu (1382), covering an area of ​​3 square kilometers.

The ancient city has a radius of twelve miles, and there are four gate towers and four turrets. There are four gates on all sides of the city wall, namely Erhai Gate (also known as Tonghai Gate) in the east, Shuanghe Gate (also known as Chengen Gate) in the south, Cangshan Gate in the west, and Santa Gate (also known as Anyuan Gate) in the north. There is a moat outside the city.

Many people say that the commercialization of the ancient city of Dali is very serious. If you want to stop and appreciate it, you must first avoid cars. This feeling is really not good. So we didn't plan to waste the time in the ancient city during the day, and only went out to go shopping at night, which was not bad.

Take a yellow battery car at Chongsheng Temple and return to the North Gate (15 yuan/two people).

Turn on the navigation mode and go to the dinner spot tonight, Dali Duan Gongzi · Tianlong Babu special experience store.

In Yu'er Garden, there are seven flower and tree areas including camellia, cherry blossom, peony, azalea, plum blossom, rose, and bamboo garden. Literati, calligraphers and painters are invited to write inscriptions and paintings, and decorate with poems, couplets, and good sentences.

China Dali Rural Film Museum is located at No. 459 Fuxing Road, Dali Ancient City. It is the first special film museum in Yunnan Province and the first special rural film history museum in China. The Dali Rural Film History Museum has become a gathering place for tourists and an important place for tourists to experience film culture in the ancient city of Dali.

After waiting outside for half an hour, I finally came in. I couldn't help but like the antique decoration, and the service attitude is good, the food is served quickly, and there is a clean bathroom, which is simply superb.

Duan's glutinous rice spareribs, the flesh and bones are separated, soft and delicious. Use the marinated pork ribs, marinate with the Dai method, wrap the outside with glutinous rice, and eat it while it is hot. The tenderness of the ribs and the stickiness of the glutinous rice form a good effect, but it is easy to be full and full.

Pao Ruda tastes super good. At first, I didn't want to drink it because of its appearance, but I fell in love with it as soon as I tasted it. I strongly recommend it.

There are a lot of trinkets for sale at the Erhai Gate, it is simply a lively pedestrian street, which has been pulling my second senior brother to wow.

If you can’t look directly at what you’re shooting, just click on your hand and continue to move forward, so you just make do with it, haha.

No matter which one has the most sense of decoration, it should be the bar, Xiaoqing Bar.

In Yunzhong Ancient Street, I thought that there were a lot of things to sell, but it was not the case, and there were more free coins.

Wuhua Building was originally the state guesthouse of the King of Nanzhao. When Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan Dynasty, conquered Dali, he was stationed in front of the building. In the early Ming Dynasty, Wuhua Building was burned down during the war. During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, when the ancient city of Dali was rebuilt, the Bell and Drum Tower was built on the former site of Wuhua Building. Its scale and structure are far inferior to the Wuhua Building in Nanzhao.

I feel that the Wuhua Building without lights during the day has more feeling.

Dali Town God's City is located on Fuxing Road, the most prosperous and prestigious ancient city in Dali Ancient City. It is only 136 meters away from the South Gate, the first of the four gates of the ancient city. It is a must for tourists to visit the ancient city.

When enjoying the scenery in the alleys, the cage yarn neighs before the horse comes out.

I have no resistance to lanterns, and people can't help but think of the phrase that people look for him thousands of times, and when I look back, the man is there, in a dimly lit place.

There are clay figurines, but they have to wait for 30 minutes, and there are still people queuing in front, so they don't stay.

This is a good writing, if you are interested, you can try it.

The second senior brother's lucky box, after opening it, it turned out to be just a box, the second senior brother is not lucky.

I finally remembered to take a photo of the facade, haha.

How to get to Cai Village from Dali Ancient City

1. Take the c2 ancient city bus at the north gate of Dali Ancient City and go directly to Caicun Wharf.

2. Take the ancient city c2 road at Dali South Gate Station and get off at Caicun Wharf, and walk 170 meters.

3. Take a taxi to 20-30 yuan.

After we had a full breakfast at the inn, we took a taxi to Splash Manor, 20 yuan.

Splash Manor, I only came to check in after seeing the online recommendation, but it turned out that it was not as fun as I imagined. Later, I found that there are many manors outside that are good. If you just take pictures, it is good to go there, 30 yuan.

99 yuan includes (wave kayaking, flower sea beauty shooting, sky realm, nine bends and eighteen bends, afternoon tea, light luxury camping)

199 yuan includes (the above 6 kinds + Bai barbecue + sunset party)

As soon as you go in and see the scenery, just take a picture. If you don’t like it, you can skip this part, because I like a lot of "beautiful photos".

The sun is not so strong in the morning, so you can go kayaking first. I am quite satisfied with the life jacket of the kayak. It looks clean and there are 4 colors to choose from.

The instructor said that if you swipe left, you swipe right, and if you swipe right, you swipe left, and then let us experience it ourselves. Oh my god, for a person like me who is not sensitive, I almost want to get off the boat. Fortunately, my second senior brother is so eye-catching, haha, then I will be responsible for taking pictures.

After bypassing the nine bends and eighteen bends, I went ashore, and the instructor was still there saying that I was slipping, but for a person like me who only has three minutes of enthusiasm, it is impossible to continue.

After kayaking, he will ask you to take a picture of the sky, 5 minutes, what are you saying, you are very good at taking pictures, my God, this is the only one you can see, taking pictures of me and the second brother is like selling glasses For commercials, I showed my friends that they don’t need to pay money. If possible, it’s better to choose to shoot by yourself.

For such a big sun, you can only close your eyes and pretend to enjoy it.

There are glass balls and square tables here, but we don't know how to shoot glass balls, full of regret.

Set off by Cangshan Mountain in the distance, it looks very comfortable and comfortable, and the rural style is very joyful.

The cute mushrooms are very eye-catching. The second senior brother told me to run over when he saw them from a distance. The pig's eyes are really sharp.

There are 3 glass balls here, you can shoot them as much as you like.

This is the legendary light luxury camping. It is really light luxury, but you still have to go in and check in.

The beautiful waiter said that we came at the wrong time, and the flowers were so few that we could not enjoy the sea of ​​flowers, but this is another view.

Riding a bicycle, holding the steering wheel, I suddenly remembered the song "Take You Traveling", as well as Dali in Yunnan, I kept the memories. . .

There is no catering here, only afternoon tea, you can order takeaway, but we still have breakfast, eat some afternoon tea and continue to catch sights.

Red dates are good, that's all.

Come to Caicun Wharf and buy a cruise ticket (180 yuan/person) to Luoquan Peninsula.

After boarding the ship, a small gift (key chain) for taking pictures will be presented, and high-definition photos can also be purchased (20 yuan/piece).

The boat is not too big, and there are not many seats. At first, I thought about sticking my butt firmly to the seat. As a result, as soon as the boat sailed, one after another took their seats, some on the second floor, some at the bow, and some at the stern, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the exclusive ship in unison.

The national AAA-level tourist area "Luoquan Peninsula" is located on the east coast of the Erhai Lake in Dali. The peninsula is surrounded by water on three sides and has beautiful scenery. It faces the ancient city of Dali across the sea.

At present, there is a 600-meter-long first water slide entertainment facility in western Yunnan, "Mountain Drifting", in the Luoquan Peninsula tourist area; it is 42.9 meters high, and you can take an elevator to the top to see the "Luoquan Tower" with a panoramic view of Cang'er; More than 2,700 square meters, including a 700-square-meter comprehensive meeting room, a multi-functional sea view square "Yuan Grand View Garden"; the first of the four famous pavilions in Erhai Lake, "Tianjing Pavilion"; a first-line sea view inn "Aegean Sea Romance Sea View Inn"; the main specialty of Dali Bai nationality delicacies The "Luoquan Wuwei Restaurant"; the ecological cultivation site "Wudao Health Hospital"; there are also many scenic spots such as Luoquan Temple, Guanyin Pavilion, Prince Pavilion, Baxian Tower, Erya Title, and Mochi. It is a comprehensive tourist area integrating sightseeing, leisure and entertainment, business meetings, health and vacation.

After disembarking, you can only stay on the island for two hours. There is a tour guide to explain, follow the tour guide, take one step and stop for ten steps, haha.

The first rest point is the rest point, and the second rest point is to go to the toilet.

The third stop is a rest point, and there are jewelry, fruits, and Erhai fried fish in the surrounding area. . . It doesn't seem very attractive.

Tianjing Pavilion, local chronicles and related books are very clear. There are four famous pavilions in Erhai Lake, namely Tianjing Pavilion in Haidong, Haoran Pavilion in Haixi, Shuiyue Pavilion in Shangguan, and Zhuhai Pavilion in Xiaguan. But by the time of the Republic of China, the four pavilions had long since disappeared. Now only the Tianjing Pavilion stands on the Luoquan Peninsula at the foot of the south peak of the Elephant Trunk Ridge in the Yuan Mountain on the east bank of the Erhai Lake after restoration and reconstruction. Among the four famous pavilions in Erhai Lake, Tianjing Pavilion is the most famous. Although the current Tianjing Pavilion does not have the danger of facing the sea, it has a high corridor and a wide corridor, and the view from a distance is wider.

The fourth stop is a rest point. After finishing, you have to take the elevator to the top of Luoquan Tower to see Cangshan Erhai Lake. The elevator fee is 10 yuan per person. Before taking the elevator, the tour guide will recommend alpine rafting. It only takes 2 minutes to get down the mountain, and the fare is 40 yuan per person. It turns out that walking is faster than we can drift.

Luoquan Pagoda, the main feature of dense eaves on all sides and no top, is 42.9 meters high, with 16 levels of eaves, and there are compassionate, joyful and affirmative images of Master Luo Quan on all sides. There is an elevator in the tower, visitors can climb to the top, and the tower is high.

The elevator can carry 7 people. It is very old. I am a little worried. When I go to the third floor, I have to walk to the top of the tower.

Climbing to the top of the tower, a gust of wind blows head-on, and I feel refreshed. I feel that the platform is so small that there are not many places to stand. If there are many people, it is impossible to turn around.

Seeing this scenery reminds me of Lugu Lake again.

Looking down is still good, you can see the triangle.

Catch a ferry boat at the window.

From the top of the tower, there is a tour bus sent to the rafting place. It feels pretty good. I didn’t expect that I was afraid to try water sports in Zhuhai Ocean Kingdom before. I tried the water here, screaming all the way. After the completion, you will be asked to go in and pick photos. The 6 cameras are almost the same, and you can choose one for 10 yuan per photo as a souvenir.

After selecting the photos, a special car will be sent back here, or you have to walk back to the berth.

Called a yellow battery car at the intersection, 15 yuan / two people back to the ancient city.

Cold chicken rice noodles, it seems to be 15 yuan a piece, I forgot the exact amount, it feels okay, but it’s a bit super spicy for us who don’t like spicy food, and it feels a bit dry without soup. I ordered seaweed soup (no Other drinks) have not been served after waiting for half an hour, only dry and spicy, haha.

After eating a little bit, I rushed to the dinner spot tonight. I’ll wait for you in Dali·Ark Fatty’s Kitchen. Let me tell you why there are no pictures here. Because we didn’t catch a cold when we ate mushrooms in Shaxi, so we didn’t order them. As a result, the waiter laughed, and we were watched by them like a strange species throughout the whole process, so we were not in the mood to take pictures.

There are stinky tofu sold outside, but it is not smelly at all. This is the least smelly stinky tofu I have ever eaten. I don’t know if it’s authentic or not, but it’s all about Changsha, Hunan. Feed a small piece to the second senior brother who never eats stinky tofu, and watch him swallow it, laughing like a pig, haha.

For yogurt fans, yogurt is a must.

Dali Confucian Temple is the temple of the first teacher with dual identities of the prefecture and the county in ancient Dali. , artistic and architectural value.

Only a quick glance at the door, and no in-depth understanding.

Dali Foreigner Street is located on Huguo Road in the ancient city of Dali, starting from the Yunnan-Tibet Highway in the west. In the ancient city, Dali Foreigner's Street was originally named "Huguo Road", which means that the people of Yunnan in the early Republic of China opposed Yuan Shikai's proclaiming emperor and raised troops to protect the country.

I was a little tired today, so I went back to the hotel early to rest.

The tremella soup sent by the lady in the inn is okay, but it has no taste, haha.

Finally took a photo of the ancient city during the day.

After storing the luggage at the inn, the next step is a one-day tour of Xizhou Ancient Town and Haitong Park.

After a full breakfast, I walked from the North Gate to Cangshan Gate to rent a battery car, and I was also drunk.

Riding battery cars is very popular in Dali, and Huanhaidi Road is easier to drive, and the government doesn't care about it, it promotes the development of local tourism.

The battery car ranges from 40 kilometers to 300 kilometers, and the price ranges from 80 to 300. It is safer to go 150 kilometers around the sea. We chose to go to Xizhou Ancient Town and Haitong Park. 80 kilometers are enough, but in the end we rented 300 kilometers because the body is lighter. , 150 kilometers or so are relatively heavy, difficult to push (for me). 300 kilometers 160 yuan to 8:00 pm, deposit 500 yuan.

The big and small started off, navigating and locating the Zhengyi Gate of Xizhou Ancient Town, even if you miss it gorgeously, you still have to enter the trapped scenic spot.

In the ancient town, the Bai people's houses are visited, and the entrance ticket is 20 yuan/person.

After entering, there are basically no tourists. They are all staff in red clothes. It is not big. Those three-bedroom, one-screen wall, four-in-one five-yard, and Zoujialou are all selling things. After entering, it simply feels like you are in the wrong place, no one will talk to you, and letting you walk around by yourself is simply a trap.

It was brought in by this picture, the result. . .

Rose popsicles, 5 yuan/piece, before I had time to take a picture, I had already taken a bite.

The "Timing Square" was built after several Jinshi came out of the town in the Ming Dynasty. At that time, all villagers who had achieved fame in the imperial examination could have their names engraved.

The wires affect the aesthetics a bit.

The public phone booth is a famous check-in point. Unfortunately, many people take pictures, and there are also vehicles coming and going. They are scared to stop at any time when they are about to pose. The experience is very poor.

I really like this wall, with the blue sky and white clouds, it is a beautiful painting.

How beautiful it would be if the rape blossoms bloomed.

Xizhou Baba has two flavors: sweet and salty. Both upper and lower layers of charcoal fire are used when making. The upper layer of charcoal fire is strong fire, and the lower layer of charcoal fire is slow fire. Brush lard on the finished dough and bake it in a pan. Brush the oil several times during the baking process and bake until fragrant. crisp. Xizhou Baba is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It is loved by people and has distinct layers, just like the 19 peaks and 18 streams in Cangshan Mountain. It is really beautiful and delicious.

When you come to Xizhou, of course you have to try Xizhou Baba, there are salty and sweet, the price is 10-20 yuan, and there are eggs, of course, choose eggs, 20 yuan/piece.

It is crispy and crunchy when it is hot, and the taste is good, and you will be full after eating two small pieces.

Located in the ancient town of Xizhou, the Yan family residence was built by Mr. Yan Xuehou, the 20th descendant of the first family of the "Four Great Masters" in Xizhou. The main body is composed of three courtyards. The compound gathers the typical architectural forms of Bai people's houses, such as "three sides and one screen wall", "four-in-one five patios", "one entrance and two courtyards", "walking horses and turrets", majestic cornices and brackets, three drops of watercolor painted gates, magnificent three The multi-layer flower board color painting screen wall and the exquisite three-story open-carved wooden lattice door fully display the architectural art of Bai folk houses.

It's a pity that we didn't have enough time, so we didn't go in to visit.

Tie-dyeing, known in ancient times as zipping, twisting, clamping and dyeing, is a traditional and unique dyeing process in China. A dyeing method in which the fabric is partially ligated during dyeing so that it cannot be colored. It is one of the traditional Chinese hand-dyed techniques.

This wall is similar to the one seen near the Cape of Good Hope in Shaxi, but the one in Shaxi should be older. According to the elder brother at the time, those houses are more than two hundred years old.

After going around for a while, I finally found the Justice Gate on the way to Haitong, and immediately asked Da Mihu to get out of the car to take pictures.

Confused and confused, we parked the battery car outside, and the shop owner said that we should walk 400 meters in, and we should have walked on the left, but we turned on the right, and walked on Huanhai West Road. My God, we wondered why it was spicy How little to pull a bus.

However, in a part of the Huanhai West Road, during the two-hour walk back and forth, we have gained a lot of beautiful scenery, which is also a blessing in disguise.

Super beautiful, the sea and the sky are really the same color, the most beautiful sky.

It is beautiful and quiet at the same time, so quiet that I can't bear to speak loudly, for fear of destroying the original tranquility.

Cangshan Mountain, Erhai Lake, blue sky, white clouds, everything is so beautiful and clean, without mixing anything. Open the chest cavity, let fresh air enter along the respiratory tract, and purify the heart that pursues fame and fortune.

Here, any scene, any thing is a gift from heaven, and I hope everyone can cherish and love it.

Come in by a yellow battery car, 5 yuan/two people, get off in this forest, the first feeling is that it is too emotional.

The withered and yellow leaves do not want to fall, and they still dance happily on the branches. Under the sunlight, the forest is dyed with a warm color.

Put away my umbrella, after all, we have walked so many roads with us.

I really like it, but maybe I came at the wrong time, and I couldn’t take a satisfactory photo after looking for several directions. I attribute this to the confusing black technology.

The fruits in Yunnan are very sweet and joyful.

【Hai Tongue Park】

Haitong Ecological Park is located on the west bank of Erhai Lake, about 3-4 kilometers away from Xizhou. It is a long and narrow peninsula extending into Erhai Lake. The scenery on the island is primitive. You can see large trees and long wormwood. The Erhai Lake in the depths of the peninsula is also very clear and blue. The scenery is fresh and beautiful, and it is very beautiful to take pictures.

Cars cannot be driven in, they are stored outside, and the battery car is 2 yuan per car.

When I was confused, my first feeling was to report someone's scribbles, and that's right.

Seeing young ladies and sisters filming ancient costumes, as well as older brothers and sisters wearing ancient costumes and playing Tianlong Babu, I immediately felt that Dali was full of Jianghu.

I wanted to prop up the bottom of the bridge with my fingers, but I was confused and made me look like a lunatic. Bad review.

We are patting and patting all the time. This is our last attraction, and it also symbolizes the pre-end of this journey. I am reluctant.

Of course you have to climb trees to wear pants. The trees here are not tall, but I admit that I was pushed up and hugged by the big confused, a typical person who is afraid of heights.

Forgive me for not being able to name the tree, but it’s so pretty, in several colors, Christmas is coming, let’s treat them as Christmas trees, haha.

The uneven small tree stumps are appropriately decorated and beautiful.

Try a horse-drawn carriage for 5 yuan/two people. It’s quite romantic to sit. Looking at other horse-drawn carriages along the way, the two kept saying that this one is good and this one is romantic. . .

Dali should be the land of rivers and lakes. The Tianlong Babu film and television city full of memories, the magnificent and magnificent Chongsheng Temple, and the half-hour waiting for Tianlong’s delicious food all describe the customs of the rivers and lakes.

I think, next time I come here, I can be a son and daughter of the Jianghu and enjoy the love of the Jianghu.

Seeing that others eat it is delicious, so I hurried to buy it. It is really delicious, but it is too spicy, haha.

After more than an hour's drive, return to the ancient city of Dali, return to the inn to get back your luggage, take a taxi to Dali Railway Station, and catch the train back to Kunming.

From Dali to Kunming, there are four ways to choose:

The first is to choose the plane. There are many special air tickets to Kunming, but they are all early flights, and generally they cannot catch up. It can be reached in 1 hour by plane.

The second is to choose the train, the train speed is slightly slower, but it is economical and the price is the lowest; take bus No. 8 from Dali Ancient Town, and arrive at Dali Railway Station in 50 minutes. The train takes 6-7 hours. Usually, you will choose the night bus and sleep for one night. Just arrived.

The third is to choose a car, which takes about 4-5 hours. It is also possible to drive for 7-8 hours in peak season.

The fourth option is to choose the high-speed rail, which takes about 2 hours without traffic jams, haha.

Travel, from a familiar place to an unfamiliar place, to experience local life, understand local customs and culture, and taste local food. After a journey, in addition to being physically and mentally exhausted, I have gained a lot. When you walk through places and step on every inch of land, you will find out which kind of life you prefer. I think this is the meaning of travel.

This travelogue is limited to the author's culture, and the knowledge is limited. Some professional knowledge points are borrowed from Du Niang. Let me explain here!
