Yunnan tourism experience and his party benefited from our predecessors in this respect, I would like to share my feelings and experiences in this line of December 24 in Guangzhou - Kunming, we sat 11:00 of the aircraft, more than two hours later, they arrived in Kunming (Fei well slowly). Got off the plane later, we want to go to the Western Hills (heard that there is the best place to watch the Dianchi Lake), asked about the airport counter lady, playing past the Western Hills, then probably 30 of money. In addition to the airport will have a lot of people ask you not to travel, some people say 10 volunteered to send us money to Western Hills. Educate them along the way to our travel company's range of services. We all declined, but listen to him, was annoyed, but also learned some things (such as Kunming, law and order is not very good, there are a lot of people of drug abuse, drug trafficking, but also a high incidence of AIDS, etc.). Finally who guide told us that the best route is to travel by boat from the mark for the floor, Dianchi Lake, and then cable car ride on the Western Hills. This route can also be, but more than the Western Hills near the so-called tour guides did not earn, but there is no loss. However, Nishiyama I feel like a general, and no surprises. My friend has even listed it as 3 can not go to the mountains (the other two finalists are the beauties of Mount Emei and Leshan, Sichuan)
Kunming, for us, and not very attractive, we bought a night train to the next target Dali 11:30. Here are一段小插曲, we came to Kunming stations queuing up to buy train tickets. Cattle has been the party of harassment, claiming that hard sleeper fares 69 Jinshou 50, we are unmoved, thinking if buying a fake ticket to trouble. Finally our turn, but the discovery of the railway station has not surprised soft sleeper ticket, even the hard-berth train ticket is outside the window (that is, cattle Party) into the Shoupiao Chuang, and then sell to us, fares 69. We woodenly, What is this world?
Prior to eat on the train was also well-known bridge in Yunnan rice noodle. Rice Vermicelli were 5, 10, 20, 40, Feng Jian by people. If two people say, to a five and a combination of a good 10. But that's really rice noodle bowl, soup is the chicken soup, taste pretty good! 10 yuan for two people can eat belly full.
December 25 we are more than 6 points early in the morning the train arrived on the next Dali. This day is the West, Christmas, this side does not seem that the kind of Christmas atmosphere. Get off after I've been eyeing a local travel agency. Time too early, we have to find a place to take a rest in the city center. The results went to the travel agency where hotels wash about to eat a breakfast. Guides have very hard to recommend their Dali day tour, but they did not force meant. In general they are very enthusiastic, people is not bad. Finally, we chose Half Day. That grow in Erhai Lake cruise tour along the way to visit two islands, one called Nanzhao style island, another one is ** Island (forgot). Full four and a half hours. 80 yuan / person. During the three tread on board Tea Bai performances. Windy on board, so if you want to box, but also his own pocket. On the second floor of the box 230, ward 480, on the first floor is 200 (although the view was not very good) the most, we have 11 individual packets of a 480 ward. Sexual intercourse is just to get to know the fifties and sixties, Sichuanese. (They can also be on the perfect mountain climbing at this age, it is admiration. After I retired, but also as they did the old man at heart, travels to every inch of interest in the land). 3 tread performances of tea can also be it, for understanding the customs of Bai a little meaning. Later we met in Lijiang, when a pair of young couples, they say they swim Erhai is sharing a house with the other two had a boat, cold, but still a lot cheaper, two people have spent 50, boatman took them out go to his house to eat. Enhance understanding of many of the Bai. In contrast or their line is better.
After disembarking, we take the bus to old town and three of money one. But the beach from the bus stop really a bit far. Something ancient north-south four gates, of which the south gate is the main entrance. Dali is known as "romantic" are very disappointing. In general, where shops, food is not commensurate with the city. Too commercialized. In the rainy days, it seems even more ancient city of dirty, and sometimes there is even more pick manure is pass it stink to high heaven. An even more outrageous is that in the ancient city there is also the PLA base, out of tune! Sum up, we can say is "dirty stinking monster." Over time, I think Dali should be in the near future on the tourist session disappears. Duan Yu friends attempt to retrieve the ancient dynasty era of the marble buildings, but we heard that during the Cultural Revolution, the time has been destroyed. Tian Long Ba Bu is now filming the scene is the renminbi, or piled-up movie. Tickets are 100 yuan / person. We are not interested in this.
6:50 pm Dali - Lijiang
In the ancient city of Dali to Lijiang which also has tickets for sale, indeed, from Dali to Lijiang, a car down the off (center) - Dali - Lijiang, there is no need to go downtown by car. According to information collected along the way, we have chosen to sit, "according to Ko-only" (a similar bullet of the van can seat a dozen people), fare 38 / bit. Dali to Lijiang is a mountain road a lot, sitting small car would be more efficient, and there is no shaking was so powerful.
At about 10 am, we arrived at Lijiang station not far from the Old Town of Lijiang, you can walk in the past. Some people want to take us to see the inn, double standard rooms, 60 / day. We want to take a look at the house and then decide the result that deer go to the source Inn, standard rooms have been filled. At that very moment there is a tall girl walked Inn Although there is no opening for them, but in the trial operation. This is what we later settled in the ancient city where the inn, "Lee Inn" (January 1 was officially opened). The Inn is a courtyard, the environment is quite good, very antique flavor. That tall girl just came from her country "Lugu Lake" in Xiao Cao. Inn there is another girl from Sichuan Komori, for others quite good. After a see-saw, we price Kandao 50 yuan / day. In fact, this House Inn a lot of things are new, which are good and some are not. Is relatively good health, bad is not functioning properly. The first day we were staying we should help to fix their toilet. The boss is quite smart, we stay a few days yew him a lot of suggestions. In fact seen a gradual improvement. Later we came back from the lake, or to live this one Inn. Speaking in front of which the young husband and wife have lived in this Inn changed. Backyard of the house on the second floor is better, open the windows you can see at least half of the city and embarked on the third floor is the ancient city could almost see the whole picture.
December 26 visiting the city - visit Black Dragon - the ancient city of Lijiang Naxi ancient music to listen to a lot better than a lot of Dali, where Luk Lau shade, water gurgling, giving a very pleasant feeling. Here there will be a modern shops, but the planning is fairly good, at least not be as huge as the ancient city of Dali, the white red electric signs too unpleasant. Lijiang is also very blue sky, it is everywhere we go in Yunnan in common. Can be seen from the Old Town of Lijiang Yulong Snow Mountain's main peak. Sadly, this year have not made snow, snow-capped mountains is not really snow Kai Kai.
After dinner we went to the Black Dragon Pool, where the scenery is also good, the water is relatively clear. There is also a small waterfall. Another characteristic is that there is a corner of the blisters from Tandi come up. Is the bubble will be heard along with the size of changes in the volume of people. Therefore, there will be many tourists come here roared. A bad mood, then come here to vent, no one would drive you Dangsha Zi, you can rest assured that cry. But tickets are too expensive, 20 yuan / person. But that is just a park. It would be a bit over 20 yuan.
Naxi ancient music of the Naxi Ancient Music concert hall in the ancient city, every day on time and performed at 8 pm Tickets priced at third-class 30,40,50. 30 on the second floor. Actually, I think the feeling of watching the second floor is also pretty good. Generally by the famous Mr. Xuan Ke to preside over. Mr. Xuan Ke is a good talker, possibly because of being held for 21 years the sake of it, if particularly high. Sometimes a bit too far. Naxi ancient music of the major players are over 80 years old resentment or complaint, they all received a private school education, and therefore a relatively thick Confucian cultural heritage. Mr. Xuan Ke said that only such a cultural background of the people the essence of Naxi ancient music can be felt. Some of them have limited mobility, but still insist on performing on stage, I want to sustain their strength behind it should not be derived from ticket revenue, but because of their love of ancient music bar. Although sporadic blending to see a few young men inside. But I seem to see it slowly fade away. Naxi ancient music is really very appealing, so music has to disappear from the earth is a great regret. From the old people's eyes we seem to see the slightest of desolation. The Auditorium will be is not going to end up becoming a museum?
December 27 Yulong Snow Mountain Maoniuping - baishuihe - Dongba God Garden - Yu shuizhai
From the ancient city to the snow-capped mountains, we pack in a leased vehicle, 60. Along the road dries up, many of the squid. This is said in the spring when the wildflowers will come alive, in April, when the words will be hill and dale. Can imagine the kind of scenario certainly beautiful! This newly developed MAONIUPING two years ago, there was originally a yak grazing the lawn. There are two ways on the MAONIUPING, one ropeway ride and second ride, the same fare. If the physical condition allows, strongly recommend riding up. Ropeway ride too meaningless. MAONIUPING riding on the road was not very good to go, but the shuttle in the virgin forest into a really good feeling. Along the roadside to see the thin frost, but there the sun will not feel cold, ladies must wear gloves, otherwise, supporting the saddle will wear themselves out of the hands, if not grind a layer of small cocoon. Here's horse shape are relatively small, was said to be only suitable for mountain walking, my riding horse hair more mixed, looks a bit ugly. The beginning I did not want to ride it. But here are Paihao horse can not be free to choose. However, he fairly clean, there is no imagination in the smell, Qian Ma is a ten-year-old young man. Start really a bit worried because the more rugged mountain. Fortunately, however, horses can not profiling, that horse is very well-behaved, and its owner without pulling it, and it also knows how to go, and very practical. Down when the guy also taught me how to ride, wow. . Feel like a heroes. Perhaps the relationship between climate here, where the child's face was giving a feeling of vicissitudes. Qian Ma's that for my boy is no exception. He told me that most of the kids here should Ganhuo complete primary education earn a. It seems the nine-year compulsory education in China, many mountains have not yet achieved. Yet even in this tourist area, the livelihood of mountain people are not necessarily easy to solve, even during the peak season, the villagers have to wait for the mountains with three or four days off. 63 of the riding votes, Qian Ma villagers get 30, and selling of votes of the three, the remaining 30 villages and the driver with a passenger up partition. Seems to be the best drivers earn the money, go where all the pumping.
MAONIUPING the scenery is very good, it is true, then again when the newly settled landscape will be better, at least a piece of green soft and thick. However, 12 months is not too sorry, you can see on the faucet side of Maoniuping end up with an ice pine. For Southerners, the rare!
The other end of snow-capped mountains, there are different ethnic groups in dance. Yi people have heard is more barbaric, we have gotten through to their dancing, we and natural photography, however, did not specify in advance the circumstances, Yi girl's leader will be running over with the money you want 5, do not give, then long-winded. Friends would rather face wash out the photo does not give money to it, because it's bad mood.
The above does not yak MAONIUPING group, listen to the residents here said, because to protect the lawn, here can no longer grazing. However, there are a lot of stalls. Visitors can still subordinated to the yak meat, roast, as well as yak milk, taste good. Pingshang also a yak for visitors to photography. Asking price 5 yuan, you can Kandao 2 yuan / person. We met in Dali MAONIUPING know that the young couples, small world, so visit her daughter with the State Meet.
Baishuihe the water is very clear, I heard that the water is melting snow-capped mountains, which is very ice! We do not stay for long.
Dongba God Garden tickets for 10, there are free guided tours, but in dozens of wooden statue at a glance.
Yu shuizhai
General study a little, who should be down from the mountain stream, not tap water. A bit like the structure of the entire shuizhai terrace, forming a section of a small waterfall, water clear bottoming out in summer here, then, where feet should be enjoyed. Large tankers are next to a water-driven stone mill in the rapid rotation, very interesting! Unfortunately, not in the use, in fact, next to a restaurant, should take advantage of such a good resource, such as grinders system, tofu, soy milk. The current system is sold, it should be a selling point.
December 28 Lijiang - Lugu Lake (daughter of country)
Four of us had a Santana package, a total of 480 (high season at that price certainly do not go to). Lijiang to Lugu Lake are the mountain, more dangerous, drivers must find an experienced and responsible drivers Cai Xing Fu. We have faced a police investigation and a half on the road signs and reminded that there is a car the night before turned into the mountain valley. The driver told us that this road three or four people die each year. Lugu Lake is a worthwhile place to go, the authorities should look to improve road conditions.
Lijiang to Lugu Lake takes about 5-6 hours away from the daughter of the country where more than 30 years, the driver told us that you can get off to a roadside kiosk to see the whole picture Lugu Lake. We had the car surrounded by a group of kids down. The smallest of them only four or five years old, wind and sun are in his / her face, left their mark. Difficult to imagine such a young child have such a face, they should not bathe for a long time, and some wearing two nose. A group of kids around the almost pleading tone of voice you use to tell you: sister, help me to buy a bag of apples, our home-grown, so sweet. . . They are neighboring villages, Yi child. The holding of this group of mothers at home, the feet of fractious child in order to sell a sack of apples full of fine words. Is not commensurate with their age, but also with the lake front in general does not match the picture. It reminds me of a child my father told me that children of the poor early masters. We all bought and exhorted them a good education (though it seems unlikely).
Has finally come to the country legend's daughter, the local village called off. Lake is the next village, backing on the other side of the village. The car, some people do not ask us to two islands on the lake, then on the two islands in front, probably a distance of about 300 meters, each 40. (No difference with the grab). We do not have to go, but visiting the next village, looking for Inn the day we settled into a great program. Most bosses Mosuo tribe, you can look at the way the local custom. As the Inn from the lake very close to the brink of the lake most of the Inn has a room, the landscape is quite good, it is a pity that point is 10 there are only nine rooms & Poor's. Usually 10 a bed, but the toilets are primitive toilets. But also out of the Inn's courtyard. Local night temperature is minus 5 degrees, so that the public toilets were quite tortured.
There are a handful Inn is a standard, the statistics a bit in the next village, there should be four. Bada finally stay hotel (which is also the Inn). Double Standard Room 80 / night. Not bad. However, the difference with a length of Lijiang.
Lugu Lake is really beautiful, and above there are many duck freedom of travel, where the sky is very blue, and occasionally inundated with 12 white clouds, is also useful layering. Feeling good.
Evening in the "mada microphone" (we later learned that the word generally means "auspicious ju" means, would mean "I love you"), eat, eat half, the boss took us to participate in the local bonfire party, (This free tickets). Go read the simulated marriage, but was soon over, I think that would be too commercialized, the so-called bonfire is just a big carbon furnace. The boss told us people here better off now become lazy after the (allegedly under the village is the first country to achieve well-off standard of living of the village), and made no previous serious. We chatted with the owner, from the real cases to understand the Moso people walking marriage. Owner of 24-year-old son, now three years old. Basically, he told us that Mosuo people are not married, but not pass out, as casually dig out what you can take the marriage of the palm. Walking marriage should also be established on the basis of emotions. Marriage of men and women will not go live with a girl to a 16-year-old will have its own greenhouse, 17-year-old can begin to take marriage, a pair of lovers, men and woman is called "Assia" woman called the man "Ah-chu "Mosuo people's home will have a back door (walking marriage, dedicated lanes), the evening will go to Assia A column in the morning will come back. Began their relationship are confidential. Until have children, to Assia A column should invite them to a dinner at home. A column will also be raising children, but seems to be no hard and fast obligations. A family which grandmother's right to the greatest. To assume a person's livelihood. A man does not seem to blame. Meet our evening with the boss the next day took us to visit four generations of the Mosuo people, they lived in the house is a hundred years of history.
December 29 visit to Mosuo people this is the most interesting I think the whole day. We came to the last village, a simplicity of the Mosuo people, but also like a courtyard, as host family is a 90-year-old woman, old lady's eldest daughter is very warm and took us into the old grandmother living room, surrounded by fire, let us sit down, the original name of the fire called "Fire Hall", the fire hall fire must always remain immortal. Since the host has also invited us to drink their home-made wine (this wine is said to be world-famous, but we are not used to drink). This room is also called the death room, that is, where women have children to health, and the family had died here, but also carried to and connected to a warehouse for some taboo, hosts who looked reluctant to allow us to see that the construction of warehouse . Reportedly died of the future you want to put in a warehouse for several days, these days monks had been chanting for the spirits of the dead, and then lifted by the Lama Mountain cremation, burial. Thereafter there will be no people to worship. In addition, the top cabinet room in the life and death also saw the famous Zhu Biaorou. It was a plump pigs, the owner put Youzha out, sprinkle with salt on the inside the house. Said that such a Zhu Biaorou can be saved for 10 years, put the longer the more delicious, we see that Wang Dan's light above the pig has been a lot of dust shop, eat do? Later surprised to find out the kitchen door facing the five letters dust Zhu Biaorou. There has been a cut in for the family to eat. Although there year-round temperatures are low, but still can not figure out why the meat is not bad, imagine a refrigerator at home there is no such capability, 10 years, not 10 days.
Mosuo people believe in Buddhism. Grandmother when I was younger, had spent six months knocking step three pilgrimage walk to Tibet. Perseverance amazing! We found a room the door hanging shoe, as well as a bottle. Meaning "evil spirits, peace," Oh. . Interesting
Here is very relaxed pace of life, no wonder the average life expectancy more than 80 years of age. And this daughter, a girl wrestling a very powerful country, it seems relatively sturdy. Grounding the body good, natural longevity.
After the tour finished, we will Lijiang, once again stay at Lee Inn. Did not leave one night, the store business better on the second floor are inhabited. Power load too heavy, from time to time trip. Daoshi boss who is also good cooked glutinous rice balls for us to eat, shop Mosuo also invited to sing for us girls to listen, a pile of tourists surrounded the courtyard of the stove to eat glutinous rice balls, songs, chat, feeling really something special. Believe that the future will be better Lee Inn, but the price would certainly be higher. If it is not too outrageous, then it's worth staying, the environment is really good!
December 30 four-pack the car the day before to Kunming, 950. In fact, sharing the same Inn, according to the pile of the husband and wife from Russia introduced, but also spent a Er-lying, 151 / person, the time chartered with similar toilet on board (allegedly very clean), but also pack two meals. They said they were very comfortable!
December 31 Tour Kunming Green Lake - Green Lake in Guangzhou have heard the birds are flying from Siberia over the winter gulls, go to the following they are kinda fun. Oh, and do not have tickets.
