Do not like the hustle and bustle of Lijiang ancient city all day long, went to the beam Kawamura bar, it is the first settlements of Naxi ancestors, 7 kilometers north of Lijiang ancient city, in the stretches of wilderness, dense shade of a tree, set off with an ancient village is.
Into the beam Kawamura, car parked in an open clearing. Here, much like the square of Lijiang Old Town Square Street, because it was raining, the square not see a few people, but added a few shops around was very quaint, carved wooden facade, paint was peeling, and exposed wood inside color. Ears suddenly heard Jay Chou's "简单爱", Mother looked, the young boy sitting in a leather goods store, is playing with a tape recorder. Shop wallet, headgear, bracelets, a leather satchel is, processes and Lijiang to see the "Blue Bird" leather exactly the same price are similar, seems to beam Lijiang River this past distribution center for leather goods, nor the glorious past re - a.
Mottled slate stepping on the road, good-bye to beam River Square Street, then go west of the stone bridge on the opposite came the big cattle忽然停下来, side head down to eat grass out of side length Ishibashi, cattle drive of the a man not at all anxious, only his head turned to the other end, watching the stream under the bridge, static wait after eating ox, laid-back and patient.
Beam Kawamura hillside is still quartzite Road, turning clear streams bottoming out across the village, there is sit in front of the elderly, laundry peasant woman, but also played as a child jumping. All of this have seen in Lijiang, only in-beam river, are so pristine nature, away from the voices, away from the flags speakers, but also less several show-elements.
Beam River, residential areas, occasionally able to see the brick houses, concrete walls and iron gates, which are rich in families. The vast majority of residential walls all local materials, with the nearby mountains made of stone Lei Qi, bump ups and downs of the hand, obviously different from the ancient city of Lijiang, the soil washed walls, highlighting the simplicity of the farmers and brief. Naxi courtyard and the like, it can be divided into residential and courtyards, but the layout is more simple and practical, there is no carving, are also very few flora.
Pei Ho Street walk along the beam blocks of Beishanmianshui residential areas, water's edge from time to time flash lush trees, and distant unknown vegetable. Many apple trees, look closely when the small, green fruits have been packed to decorate the tree, though it is still to eat and then patiently wait for some time. Beyond that, when walked, one of the residential courtyard where Shenxiang locked, and only occasionally heard of several more barking will break the silence, sometimes followed by wrist of the human voice will be that there are masters at home.
Emerged in an open space in front of his eyes suddenly see the light: This circular pools, everyone is the source of stream "Jiuding Longtan" manner? Ming-jing clear water lake, cruising in a few chasing tail red carp. A closer look and found that many old trees around the pools are surrounded foliage colors are different, deeply shallow green projection on the water, they constitute a body of water at different levels of green: emerald green, dark green, green, grass green , the original color. Went so far as It can also be gorgeous in.
Because people love this lake, so there Longquan Temple. Temple is very common, but added Tanbian Linshuei corner, there's "three-Sheng Temple," pavilion, which is dedicated to founder cobbler. But I do not know today's bundle River, if there was leather craftsmen?
Beam River, a quiet, small town feel the passage of time. The number of Our Time, hidden in the stone wall crevices, flowing sound, the stone road mottled years, and the leaves of the lines where? To spend an afternoon in-beam river walk to see, you know.
