journey
The second stop of the Kunming one-day tour, in fact, what I miss the most is the row of ginkgo trees in Yunnan University. The temperature in Kunming is relatively warm, so there are still many ginkgo leaves that have not turned yellow. If you don’t go to Ginkgo Village, you can only come to Yunnan University to see it.
Kunming
Day1, fly to Kunming
(In a period of nonsense) The plane at 5:55, I left home at 1:30, and I was also drunk, and I originally planned to leave at 2:00. Arrived at four o'clock. Recently, when I went out, I picked up the car every minute by Didi, and arrived at the residence in 10 minutes. The operating hours of the airport bus are 4:00-22:00. There are four direct links to the airport in downtown Fuzhou, North Railway Station, South Railway Station, and Cangshan Wanda to Tesco Plaza. Sit and go. However, I heard that many flights have been added recently, and you can inquire at the airport for details. If the airport bus has a rating, I really want to give a bad review and honk all the way to the airport. The sound of the horn of the bus is particularly harsh. Have you ever thought about other people's feelings? If you really don’t want to complain about Fuzhou Airlines, because you sit in the front and get on the plane late, the seat is full of luggage. I want to tidy it up and see if I can stuff my backpack into it, but there was a lot of queues at the back. I just wanted to let them get on first, and then I went back to my seat. The flight attendant saw that my backpack was still on my lap, and immediately said, your bag is too big, put it on it. I said that it can't be put on the top right now, and I'll put it up after sorting it out later. I thought it was over. Unexpectedly, she immediately pulled her face down, saying why it can't be put on, you won't push it in harder. I said, why don't you put it away for me? I was very unhappy and threw my backpack up, and then I didn't tidy it up, and closed the lid twice hard. Well, as long as I can put it in, I am satisfied. The most frustrating thing for me is that my chair is a bit far back, I haven’t moved, and after I sat down, I started to close my eyes and prepare to sleep, when there was a sudden click, my body had a cushioning force, and my head hit the back, and the whole person was frightened Jumping, it turned out that the chair was pulled up, it was helpless to be notified in advance ╮(╯_╰)╭
Excited, after two years, I finally set foot on this land again. Last time I left with unhappiness, I thought I would not come back for at least five years, but who can control the desire to leave? Someone asked: you I have been there so many times, why do I still go, I think, there are always a few places that I want to go after I have been there. Such as Tibet.
Day 2, one day in Kunming
Cuihu Park is one of the most beautiful parks in the urban area. It was originally a bay in Dianchi Lake, and later became a Wangqing Lake due to the drop in water level. It is famous for its "Cuidi Spring Dawn". In winter, a large number of red-headed gulls fly from Siberia to Kunming for the winter. These little elves inhabit the green lake, attracting countless tourists to watch. Opening hours 7:00-23:00 Tickets: Free
Cuihu Lake is called "Cuihu" because of green water on eight sides, bamboo green in four seasons, and willow green in spring and summer. It is the central viewing point of the city, just opposite the main entrance of Yunnan University. The park consists of four scenic spots: Bamboo Forest, Jinyu Island, Jiuqu Bridge and Pisces Building. The pavilions are fresh and beautiful. [Traffic] The transportation is convenient, and there are many buses, such as 1, 4, 5, 26, 69, 83, 96, K2, 54, 61 and other buses. It is very comfortable to take the bus in Kunming, and most of the buses in Kunming have exclusive lanes. There are many sightseeing buses, which can be done for basically one yuan. When I go to a strange city, I like to take the bus. Taking the bus can slowly see the scenery along the way, and it will make me more familiar with the city. Those who really don't understand remember to use Baidu Maps, Baidu Maps. Baidu map, this is my good companion when going out.
Just feel quietly. People often ask me to recommend the places I have been to, and then I say come to Kunming, but the other party will question and say that many people say that Kunming is not fun, so don't go. When I recommend places to people, I will first tell my impressions. If the person has not been here before, I will persuade him to go there too. Everyone has different feelings about everything, so don’t stop him from experiencing it. process. If I question the view of a place, all I can say is that I'm in the wrong season. What's more, I don't have a pair of eyes to discover beauty.
The second stop of the Kunming one-day tour, in fact, what I miss the most is the row of ginkgo trees in Yunnan University. The temperature in Kunming is relatively warm, so there are still many ginkgo leaves that have not turned yellow. If you don’t go to Ginkgo Village, you can only come to Yunnan University to see it.
Wandering around the campus of Yunnan University, I happened to meet two old men who were sketching here. They watched quietly and were moved.
The third stop of Kunming's one-day tour, Haigeng Park, I will not tell you that I arrived at Haigeng by bus from Yunnan University. You know the Green Lake in Kunming, you know the Dianchi Lake in Kunming, but you may not know Haigeng Park. For example, although I have been to Kunming three times, the first time I heard about Haigeng Park was from my friends in Kunming.
On the second day after leaving Kunming, there were reports that a man and a woman abused red-billed gulls by the Dianchi Lake, holding the red-billed gulls, which was nicknamed "capture". Delicious." Everyone has a different understanding of beauty. In fact, when groups of red-billed gulls fly, the scene is more beautiful. Please protect these elves of nature and don't let them get hurt.
Make an appointment with a few friends, bring a pot of good tea, chat in the sun, sit from early morning to sunset, and sit and watch the sunset. The sun is just right, and when it shines on the body, it is easier to shine into the bottom of the heart. Not only the body is warmed, but the heart is also warmed.
Golden Horse and Jade Rooster Archway is the collective name of the two archways of the Golden Horse Archway and the Jade Rooster Archway. You can go or not.
Let me tell you about the situation at the train station first. Due to what happened at Kunming Railway Station last year, the security checks on trains are now very strict, comparable to flying by plane. Before entering the station, there is a security check line, after entering the station to collect tickets, there is a line for ticket inspection, and there is another security check line when going upstairs to the waiting room. So everyone, children's shoes, remember to go to the train station early, I went to the train station 40 minutes in advance. Just arrived at the waiting hall to check in tickets.
Dali
After settling down, proceed to the ancient city of Dali. There are too many roadside delicacies, and the stomach protests, so let's start with a bowl of favorite potato chips. By the way, there is one more thing worth noting, arriving at Dali Railway Station. Be careful not to be tricked by soliciting customers at the door. These methods of soliciting customers at low prices have deceived many people. The safest way is to take the No. 8 bus to the ancient city of Dali.
If you like peaceful Dali, then choose to come during the off-season, if you want to experience the excitement of Dali. You can come now at the time of the March Festival, the Torch Festival. Merchants gather at the March Festival, and now it has developed into a trade fair.
If you stand at this position during the day, you will see not only the Foreigner Street, but also the 19 peaks of Cangshan Mountain. The 19 peaks standing on the screen are swimming like a dragon, stretching for hundreds of miles and majestic.
The Erhai Lake and sea view rooms on the roof are not cheap, most of them cost more than 400 yuan... Located on Yuji Island, Shuanglang Town is really small. The center is Yuji Island and Nanzhao Customs Island The tourist center is only two to three hundred meters away. Nanzhao Fengqing Island is another island that needs to buy a ticket and take a boat.
Shuanglang is a place inhabited by Bai people, whose population accounts for 84.6%. I have to say that the publicity of Shuanglang is perfect, and most people give up the ancient city of Dali and go to Shuanglang. But I will not give up, from the ancient city to Shuanglang is perfect. Shuanglang Town is a gravel road that leads to the end. Cars are not allowed to drive in during the day, only sightseeing cars go back and forth. The houses on both sides are built along the road, one side is against the Erhai Lake, and the other side is against the mountain.
This boat is a boat heading to Nanzhao Fengqing Island, and it will leave when it is full. It takes about 5-10 minutes to travel from the pier to the island, and check the ticket on the island. If you don't go to this island, you will feel regretful, and if you go, you will regret it again. In general, the fare is cheap, so go for a walk. Remember to book tickets on the website, you can get it immediately
Nanzhao style island in the distance. [Introduction] Dali Nanzhao Customs Island is one of the three islands of the Erhai Lake. You need to take a boat in Shuanglang Town to go there. It is composed of the palace, the main culture and art square of the Bai nationality, the beach comprehensive amusement park, the Taihu Lake stone scene community and the fisherman's proud scenery. When you get to the island, you will find how boring it is. Then I think the most worthwhile thing to go to the island is to see the beauty of Shuanglang Town on the island, especially Yuji Island. It is recommended to go to the island for 1-2 hours. Some people take wedding photos on the island is a good choice. [Tickets] The fare to Nanzhao Customs Island is 50 yuan per person, including round-trip boat tickets. Preferential policies: 1. Students buy half-price tickets with their student ID cards. 2. Holders of active service military ID, disabled ID, old age ID over 70 years old, and retirement ID are free of charge. Those who are free of charge need to buy a 10 yuan/person boat ticket to board the island. When you arrive on the island, show your ID to the staff. Tickets can also be purchased online. Tickets are sold on various websites, 42 yuan/person including boat tickets. Tickets available on the day. Just pick it up at the window after ordering.
This ship is a tool for a day trip to the Erhai Lake. The time limit is relatively tight. Each point only needs 15 minutes to 30 minutes of tour time. I ran into a few people who ran all the way in Nanzhao Fengqing Island. I feel that it is really tiring to play like this, but I still feel free to walk around at will.
[Best sunset spot] Many people think that they are watching the sunrise when they first arrive in Shuanglang. Shuanglang is suitable for watching sunset but not sunrise. Shuanglang Town is 15 kilometers away. When I came back by boat from Nanzhao Fengqing Island, I found that it was still early. I rented an electric car and sat around the Erhai Lake to wait for the sunset. It was a great pleasure.
Go to Quse and eat a bowl of Erhai fish. According to the boss, it was just salvaged from the Erhai Lake in the morning. This fish can only taste like this when fried. Well, after eating it, I feel that it tastes the same as our brook fish! After frying, the freshness of the fish is gone.
Lijiang
Day 5, Lijiang
After settling down, wander aimlessly in the ancient city.
Lijiang's slow pace makes the animals lazy too. Look, that dog. It is said that as long as the locals have a house or storefront in the ancient city of Lijiang, they basically sleep until they wake up naturally every day and then start playing mahjong.
As night falls, the ancient city has a different taste. I prefer the ancient city during the day. After all, I also come for the sunshine in Lijiang. I just want to slow down in Lijiang, slow down, and walk slowly on the stone road to drink. A cup of coffee and listening to music. basking in the sun. Don't care about the passage of time.
Dongba culture is the traditional culture of the Naxi people. Dongba religion is a polytheism that believes in animism. Dongba wind chimes originated from the caravans on the ancient tea-horse road six hundred years ago. The ancient city of Lijiang is an important town on the ancient tea-horse road in western Yunnan. The bells brought us auspiciousness and peace. As the saying goes, "the bell rings in the mountains and the caravans come". Prosperity. The Dongba wishing wind chime is written with the only surviving Dongba pictograph in the world. Its words bring auspiciousness to people! Her voice brings blessings to people.
What is stylish is that there are resident singers in the dining places. It is estimated that it is easy to digest. It only takes half an hour to eat, but an extra hour or two is added to the meal because of the music.
Shuhe Ancient Town
Day 6, Shuhe Ancient Town
After eating and thirsting, we went to Shuhe Ancient Town, accompanied by sunshine all the way, and almost fell asleep on the bus. The illusion for a moment made me think that I went to the wrong place. As you can see from this picture, except for the open shops, there are very few people walking on the road. My heart is cheering, it's great
We didn't make a wish, so let's leave a picture before leaving.
The heartwarming thing about traveling is that you will encounter a post office while you are walking, step up and go in and write a few postcards to your friends. After you finish the journey, they will post the postcards you sent in the circle of friends. Sweet aftertaste.
If you happen to meet a performance in Shuhe, sit down and watch a performance. It's on the square in Shuhe Ancient City, no tickets required. If you think the performance is good, don't be stingy with your applause.
I had a good meal in Shuhe Ancient Town. This internet celebrity gourmet restaurant is very popular. It is very famous for its local specialties in Yunnan. When celebrities visit Lijiang, they usually come to this restaurant to taste local specialties.
The environment of this restaurant is very good. The flying water touches the flowers in the ancient town of Shuhe. There are many flowers planted at the door, and there is a small stream. It feels very good. The store is also clean and tidy, with various decorations, very good, and the food tastes very good , It’s so delicious, the portion is also very large, the price is affordable, and the price/performance ratio is super good. I personally think hi is the best and most outstanding trip in this trip. I strongly recommend everyone to check in!
I’ve been playing for many days, and I’m quite tired. I’ve come to such a good environment in Shuhe, such a quiet world, so I decided to find a coffee shop to have a good rest and enjoy it. I saw many people recommending this coffee shop on the Internet before, so I came here
The environment is really nice, very quiet, the environment in the store is also very good, the service is also very warm, and the things are really affordable, really wrong, come to the right place, support check-in!
Shangri-la
Day 7, Shangri-La
The distance from the bus station to the ancient city is about 3 kilometers. Tourists who choose to stay around the ancient city
The gate of Dukezong is still so resplendent, without the noise of Lijiang Old Town. I just love this feeling, strolling on the stone roads of the ancient city, listening to my favorite songs.
In Shangri-La, there is an ancient city called "Dukezong" by Tibetans, which was built according to the ideal country of Shambhala in Buddhist scriptures. Also known as the City of Moonlight. After going to Dali, Lijiang, and arriving at Shangri-La, the first feeling is that the ancient city of Shangri-La is indeed much deserted than Dali and Lijiang. I think most of the reason is because too many ancient cities have been burned down. At present, there are basically no shops in the ancient city. open for business. There are very few tourists. Even if there are tourist groups, they will go to Guishan Park in Moonlight Square and leave in a hurry. Won't stay here for too long.
This is the largest prayer wheel in the world. The entire prayer wheel is about 5 stories high. The body of the barrel is made of pure copper and gold-plated. The Eight Treasures of Buddhism are engraved, and there are 1.24 million scriptures, mantras and mantras without words in the tube, as well as 16 tons of various Buddhist treasures. There is a circle of handrails under the prayer wheel, which is used for people to push the prayer wheel. In order to turn such a huge sutra tube, everyone needs to work hard at the same time. Every turn around is equivalent to 1.24 million Buddhist names, and after three turns, you can eliminate disasters and pray for good luck.
During the day, flocks of pigeons roamed happily in the square, and Tibetan children were feeding them with food. It seemed so leisurely. I think I prefer the unpopular Dukezong. It's like having this moment to yourself
Introduction At present, this area is the only area that has been burned less, and it is also an area that has been relatively intact. It is located at the back of the temple, and only the rebuilding workers are coming and going underneath.
When I boarded Guishan Park, I felt quite tired. I sat on the chair and wanted to rest for a while. Someone next to me called, "Come on, come on, let's turn the prayer wheel together." Get up in a hurry, five Tibetan elder brothers add me a girl. I really put all my strength into breastfeeding, and I was so satisfied when I turned the prayer wheel, my hands and feet were shaking after 3 rounds. Had to stop and rest. The Tibetan singers turned 9 times and left. After a while, the two Tibetan uncles and aunts came with their granddaughter. The Tibetan uncle and aunt kept smiling at me, but didn’t speak. I think he was afraid that I couldn’t understand or they couldn’t speak Mandarin, but I guess it meant to let me turn the prayer wheel together. Why did I think so? Turned around the prayer wheel for a long time. Just go around like this. Seeing that there are more and more tourists, someone said to turn the prayer wheel, so I went back and forth three times. It is estimated that there were ten or twenty people in the last round, but it was more tiring than the first round. Later, I found that many people were dragging ropes and posing for photos. I really couldn’t understand why the matter of praying for blessings can be pretended.
Early the next morning, after having breakfast at the residence, we set off again. Along the way, we have to pass the Balagezong Grand Canyon, the First Bay of the Yangtze River and other scenic spots, but since we are taking the shuttle bus, there is no reason to stop for us to take pictures...so these scenic spots can only pass by ! However, the unique landforms and architectural styles of the Shangri-La region continue to pour into the field of vision from the car window along the way, so the itinerary is not very monotonous.
The golden-roofed building on the mountainside in the distance is Gadandong Zhulin Temple, one of the thirteen great monasteries in the Tibetan area. Due to geographical and transportation reasons, Dongzhulin Temple, which has a high religious status, is much less famous than Songzanlin Temple in Shangri-La. But it also made the temple clean and pure, less noisy and worldly.
Along the way, I tried to look for the figure of Meili Snow Mountain through the window of the car, and tried to catch a glimpse of Kawagebo’s divine appearance, but I found nothing. I wondered if I was looking in the wrong direction, until I arrived at Feilai Temple and saw the scene in front of me. Only then did I understand my premonition on the way. Meili Snow Mountain is the same as Baima Snow Mountain when we came here, hidden in heavy clouds and mist, and there is no trace of it.
Yubeng
Facing the morning star, we set off.
One thing that is difficult to accept is that you have to buy a package ticket to go to Yubeng, Meili Snow Mountain 230 yuan package (including Jinsha River Dawan 60 yuan, Wunongding Observation Deck 60 yuan, Feilai Temple Observation Deck 60 yuan, Yu collapse 80 yuan). Holders of student ID cards, military officer ID cards and other documents can be exempted from half the ticket. Half of the package ticket. Retired personnel, the disabled, disabled soldiers, family members of martyrs, revolutionary soldiers with second-class merit and above, and retired military cadres with ID cards and relevant valid certificates Retirees, disabled people, disabled soldiers, family members of martyrs, revolutionary soldiers with second-class merit and above Retired cadres are free of charge with their ID cards and relevant valid documents. Elderly people aged 60-69 can enjoy a half-price discount on tickets with their resident ID cards and preferential treatment certificates for the elderly; senior citizens over 70 years old (including 70 years old) are exempt from tickets with their resident ID cards and preferential treatment certificates for the elderly. Model workers above the provincial level, free of charge with a copy of the model worker certificate and ID card with valid certificates
Passing through the Ninon Grand Canyon, many people say that the Grand Canyon is steep, and they dare not walk through the Grand Canyon, and then enter Xidan from Xidan, I want to say that it is a pity, it is really a pity. The most scenic section of the hike is the Ninong Grand Canyon, and Ninongjin is much easier to walk than Xidan, and the one who walks in Xidan is the one who collapses, and entering Xidan is all the way uphill and uphill. Going out of Xidan is all the way downhill and downhill. The feeling of broken feet is particularly obvious. The Grand Canyon has uphill and flat roads. Except that there is a straight and steep cliff on the left side of the canyon, which is thrilling to look at. No other difficulty. Some are a combination of physical strength and endurance. On the mountainside of the cliff, a man-made canal flows close to the cliff. If you encounter a cavalry team, please remember that people must lean in to give way to them.
This is a girl from Hubei. She walked very slowly at first, and she had to sit down and rest for a while after a short walk. Then I told her, even if she was tired, don’t sit down and rest. If you are really tired, just stand for a while and then continue to walk, so that your physical strength will not be exhausted too quickly, and I didn't expect to catch up with us. The next day, relying on this method, I finished walking the Shenpu Ice Lake in one day. I sincerely admire it from the bottom of my heart.
Day 11, God Waterfall
It is 3.5 kilometers from Yubeng Village to the sign of Shenpu. In fact, the actual distance is more than 3.5 kilometers. There is such a joke that the surveyors at that time did not go to Shenpu at all. They just took the measuring ruler in Yubeng Village and predicted I estimated it, said it was so close, and then wrote down the data of 3.5 kilometers.
People in Tibetan areas regard stones as living and spiritual things. These aura-like mani piles made up of stones of different sizes are piled up by many people and how much time it took to pile them up. It is the pursuit, ideal, and emotion of the Tibetans carved on the stones. and hope.
The little girl who was traveling with her saw the Tibetan aunt walking alone with words in her mouth, and she couldn't help following. She said that she was a person with faith in her heart, and I said I believed, the little girl had dark skin. When I first saw it, I thought it was a Tibetan child. After we got to know each other well, we found out that we were from Zhengzhou. In the next few days, we walked together to the Ice Lake, left to Xidan, and left at Feilai Temple.
There is no professional equipment or a pair of special non-slip shoes on the road after the snow. It is very difficult to walk. If you accidentally fall to the ground, there are always people wrestling along the way. Some people have given up on returning, and there is a kind of belief supporting them. If I give up, I will definitely regret it and regret it. Then grit your teeth and stick to the waterfall.
Along the way, you can see small flags printed with scripture patterns and tied on ropes in strings. These small flags are called "Longda" in Tibetan, and some people call them "sacrificing horses" and "Luxu". Horse", "Prayer Flag", "Prayer Flag". When you observe carefully, you will find that Tibetans never step on or step over the prayer flags that fall on the ground. They will carefully pick up the prayer flags and pass under them. Here are a few words, I hope friends who go to Tibetan areas will write down: Do not step on the prayer flags, do not step on the mani stone, do not take it into the temple, remove the crown, enter the Tibetan house, and do not take off your shoes, do not shout, do not Stove, throw sundries and avoid feet, to gods and Buddhas, to lamas, to elders
A trekking pole, leaning on a trekking pole, fell down, greeted all the smiling faces, and said Tashi Dele all the way, listening to not standard Mandarin, told me: girl, come on, be careful point. How could I be so moved that I wanted to cry? Tibetans sing and pray for blessings under the waterfall
It is said that Yubeng Waterfall is the holy water brought back from heaven by God Kawagebo. It can predict people's fate, eliminate disasters and avoid difficulties, and bestow grace on all beings. Tibetan Buddhist believers must bathe in the Yubeng Holy Waterfall when they worship Meili Snow Mountain. Tibetans take bathing under the Yubeng waterfall as a practice of purifying the soul. In Yubeng, the sacred waterfall and the sacred lake are both sacred and inviolable. As tourists, we must abide by their customs. This season, the sacred lake can no longer be visited. Without super-professional equipment, it is impossible to go there. There is no road to the sacred lake. It is easy to get lost after heavy snow cover. The villagers also refused to let them go up. Last month, there was a girl who went to Shenhu Lake alone, and died in Shenhu Lake for some reason, and was not found by people who went up after many days. If you are not a professional outdoor person, it is recommended to go with you.
Day 12, Ice Lake
Pushing open the window, Goddess Peak came into view, I couldn't wait to pick up the camera, and save this beautiful moment, the little girl from Zhengzhou next door was shouting loudly, Meili, I love you.
It was sunny for two consecutive days in Yubeng Village, and we still like Meili Snow Mountain if we think about it. It’s also interesting to say that I planned to go to Yubeng on the third day, so I packed up all my things and climbed up the hillside for two to three hundred meters. Everyone felt that they were unwilling to go like this, how could they not go to the ice lake. Finally decided to flip a coin.
The steep slopes along the way may not be tiring for people who often climb mountains, but those of us who don’t climb mountains and have little physical strength are really close to collapse. There are also several sections of roads that are all icy on the road. Walking on ice, it is easy to slip and fall. If we slip, our lives will be in danger. We have to step on stones or leaves. Be careful along the way, the shoes on your feet are not very slippery, this is a lesson learned, you must learn the lesson next time, bring professional hiking shoes and trekking poles.
Walking through the dense primeval forest, if it weren’t for the crowds, I wouldn’t have dared to come. I always feel that it’s dark and dark. I didn’t meet other people along the way. The ice lake is not like the divine waterfall. The divine waterfall is mainly for worship. There are so many people here, and drinking a sip of the water from the waterfall is said to be able to eliminate disasters and cure diseases. A newlywed couple from Shanghai who were traveling with them has come to Yubeng for the third time this year. She said that she had caught a cold the first two times and both Go to Shenpu and drink a sip of water from Shenpu, and the cold will be cured the next day.
On the road, I met a 60-year-old uncle. He went to Guizhou and came to Yunnan alone. He has been walking alone for more than 20 days. It took 6 hours to go back and forth to the ice lake. When talking to him at the time, he felt that our 5 hours was probably enough. In the end, our group took 8 hours to go back and forth. I was really ashamed. Many places on the road were frozen. Not awesome, but satisfying.
Started today's foot abuse operation, all the way downhill. All the way. There is no challenge in walking to Xidan, it is a competition of endurance and physical strength. It depends on whether you can fight or not. Those who can't fight, hire a mule to carry them all the way.
When I was leaving the village, I met a Tibetan elder brother. He said that he has basically visited all the sacred mountains in China. This is the 11th time he has been to Yubeng. This time he accompanied relatives in Lhasa. He said When I was a child, Tibetan areas were very poor. Many people of their generation went abroad, and they also went to many countries. He also adopted more than 20 children in Tibet. He said that in life, one must always do something meaningful and faithful, and it doesn't matter how much money one has. Enough is enough. And tell us, if you encounter a clockwise mani pile, go around it (equivalent to the mani pile on our left we can go around)
Day 14, Shangri-La
lugu lake
Day 15, Lugu Lake
On the way to Lugu Lake, there is a viewing platform for viewing the Eighteen Peaks of Yulong. You can park your car to go to the toilet. The toilets in Yunnan are charged. Please prepare change. One dollar at a time. (Hahaha, suddenly feel so rude)
Lugu Lake is located between Yanyuan County, Liangshan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, and Ninglang Yi Autonomous County, Lijiang City, Yunnan Province, across Sichuan and Yunnan provinces. Known as the country of daughters, the large-scale propaganda says that it retains the most primitive walking marriage custom. Mysterious and desirable. I have been thinking about it for three years. When I wanted to go back, I couldn't help but go to find out. The road was extremely difficult to walk, and it took 7 hours of bumps along the way, basically spending a whole day on the road. I never got motion sickness in a car, but I got motion sickness on this road. I thought the bumpy 7 hours was definitely worth it. But I was wrong. It's way too different from what I imagined. Maybe it's because I'm here at the wrong time of year.
This is a message sent to me by a friend who knew that I went to Lugu Lake: Lugu Lake, for people who are too impetuous and have no connotation, they can’t stay there. There is nothing delicious or fun, except barbecue or barbecue. , The traffic is inconvenient, the car is dead, the climate is dry, the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, it is regrettable once around the lake, the lights are dark at night, and there is no place to urinate. I finally understood this sentence later. [Route around the lake] The circle around the lake is 60 kilometers, passing through the route Daluoshui→Lige Village→Lige Observation Deck→Nisei Village→Lise Island→Xiaoluoshui→Luyuanya→Dazui Village→Auqua→Caohai → A big fall into the water. [Riding] Riding on Lugu Lake in winter is a pain. The road in Yunnan is still very good. Once you reach the border of Sichuan, the road is full of potholes and extremely difficult to ride. If you accidentally ride too fast, you will easily fall down. There are often couples knocking on the road. Bloody. Be careful when riding an electric bike. If you want to go around the lake in winter, it is best to carpool around the lake. If you can ride all the points, you will definitely be unbearably cold if you ride for up to two hours.
The roast suckling pig is fat and too greasy, and there is no seasoning when roasting. This is a tasteless pig.
Day 16, Lugu Lake
The largest village in Lugu Lake is Daluoshui, which is crowded with people, convenient for accommodation and transportation, and has more shops. Compared with Lige, the price will be much cheaper. Our accommodation in Lige was attracted by Tashi's barbecue because of the rumors from our teammates. After that, I feel average. Qi Lige is really inconvenient. It is recommended to stay directly in Dashui in the future.
After two days in Lugu Lake, I found out that the most beautiful of Lugu Lake should be in the afternoon. It was foggy in the morning, and even the air became thinner after the sun came out. The circle around the lake is about 60 kilometers. In the morning, you can rock the boat to watch the sunrise, then set off at 10 o'clock, go to Moon Bay to have a buffet lunch, and return in the afternoon is perfect.
Walking Marriage Bridge is located in the Caohai area of Lugu Lake and is the only bridge on Lugu Lake. The Walking Marriage Bridge is a place where Mosuo men and women date. The Mosuo people on the banks of Lugu Lake practice the custom of "walking marriage" that "men do not marry and women do not marry". During the day, adult Mosuo men and women express their hearts to their loved ones by dancing and singing at the party. If a man falls in love with a woman, he will go to the woman's "flower building" (referring to the room of an adult Mosuo woman) in the middle of the night after making an appointment with the woman during the day. Here, men call female lovers "Axia", and women call male lovers "Azhu". As night fell, the "Azhu" who were going to the appointment came and went on the marriage bridge.
I don’t recommend riding around the lake in winter for another reason besides the cold, that is, the roads in the Sichuan section are really bad. I fell down in the Sichuan section, and my hands were broken and my feet were bruised. The electric car was also broken, and it was finally settled after losing money. Although free, also suffer.
