(D) look for Lijiang, a well and the bridge
And all the rivers and lakes, like Lijiang, there are many wells and bridges, through it, passing the time, might miss those nameless, there is only talk about a few of those most impressed.
Yulong Bridge ****** ******
2 large waterwheel next to the ancient city entrance, the stone inscription is backed by the general secretary. Because it is in the ancient city entrance, separate from the ancient city and the Metro, it gives ordinary stone this unusual significance. It looks brand new brand new, and not tell the age, but perhaps after the Lijiang became the world's built cultural heritage.
Yulong Bridge has never been lonely, and just arrived here in the ancient city of tourists is bound to this one travel souvenir shots; a solitary backpacker youth hostel or a donkey nest after lonely heart, usually starting in the assembly here; every day , there will be countless men and women in Lijiang, where the distribution business cards, to attract a chartered business. Clamorous your side Changba I debut, Yulong Bridge carries numerous bustling, carries just entered the ancient city of hope, loss and fatigue, but also left the city carrying the satisfaction of harvesting and nostalgia.
Sub-Bridge ****** ****** 10000
10000 child off in front of the bridge, is a single-hole stone arch bridge. According to legend, the Yang donor bridges because of long-lost a son eager to bridges Jide Child-giving, while the bridge work is intended that the use of a condensation by 10 million grains of sand made of sand and gravel board as raw material in future generations Yi Yu , always prosperous.
At that time did not heard of this legend, without a careful look at its material, without consulting anybody left later, but added floor off the entrance gates is very ancient, impressed. Zaiqu Lijiang friends, if you like bridges, must go take a look.
Yi-Chan Well ****** ****** A
It is said that if the Naxi, Yi-Chan A refers to the Yuan army stationed where Kublai cross the river from attack Dali, was in this unmanning. Located at the mouth of the Mississippi Lane, A Yi Chan wells, is also unique in the ancient city of monocular wells.
Walk in Lijiang, when passing more than one occasion overflow Can. First time I saw this poetic name, could not help but run in the past. It was a gentle slope at the small stone balustrades enclosed a Jing-Quan. The well prepared with small bowl, attend to taste the taste of spring, Hui Mengmeng through the dawn, when one look inside the springs at the bottom fascinating, and indeed a name it should be: filled out brilliant.
Although he could not in its neighbor --- BLUE PAGE CAFE Tiger Leaping Gorge on foot to get a map, or often passed around from it, sometimes because of getting lost, sometimes deliberately deliberate, is to let their feelings, but also contaminated filled out on the share of brilliant.
****** ****** Sanyanjing
Sanyanjing is a traditional ancient Jing-Quan, well water gush from the ground, depending on the flow of water potential, respectively, starting from high to low in series three times the fence, thus classified into three pools. The first lake is the source of spring water, no impurity and pollution, specifically for human consumption; second lake immediately after the water flow down the source of spring water, water clean, for vegetables; third lake and then invited the former lake water for laundry.
Sanyanjing usage, Naishi archaic convention, folk, Lijiang people since being observed. Could be hit if the rules for individual tourists do not know how to do? Take a look at the wall first, are generally well written care conventions, the people of the water, the people love, not allow anyone to undermine this source of life, tourists are no exception.
Lijiang sanyanjing too much, gone through a few also remember, just remember that structure is very similar, well before the trees are tall and shady trees; the well, there are always Naxi woman, hard to wash crafts .
****** ****** A hundred bridges and Yibin snack bar
Really can not understand, then the small, a few steps you can step over, and hanging a few pieces of slate in the water can also be called a bridge. And actually called a hundred bridges, perhaps because in the centenary Square, next to the bar is named.
The reason to remember it, because I am a good impression on all of the food in Lijiang, have focused on its near a snack bar --- Yibin. Place it in the next hundred years old, over a hundred bridges With just few more steps and you can see it. Small, not shunned publicity signs, suffused with shiny floors, simple tables and chairs, narrow and steep stairs, poor folks conversation, believe it will be missed.
The Sichuan style snack bar in Lijiang 10 years, has two small stores, snack no more than 10 kinds of species, but the room was too hot Xilihuala forever, and ruddy diners, some are not only seen a return to ; added Ukrainian side is always delicious soy chicken overflowing; hot and sour powder inside the bones fans always full, soybeans always crisp and delicious. How many tons do not remember to eat, and only Kitty hungry to move on Ben there, who have been to be accompanied by the moon, A Winter's discontent ... ...
****** Dashiqiao, Bunun bell, Choi Yunnan ******
Finally, turn the large stone bridge. I do not know how many times I have gone through has a smooth example of her great stone bridge stone streaky.
Large stone bridge is a two holes on the Square Street stone arch bridge, is said to be built in the Ming Dynasty wooden toast, because the river under the bridge can see the reflection of the Yulong Snow Mountain, also known as Ying-Xue bridge. Poetic name, but unfortunately more than half of the rain, how could not see the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, the reflection is even more lost.
Every day, and large stone bridge photo of the numerous visitors, and its function and reputation seems to have gone beyond the city's business travel for hundreds of years between the streets and marketplaces exchanges. Even in the night, there are still people braved the rain on the bridge walking, excitement, and loneliness; even more people on the bridge decentralized WATER LANTERNS, rain or shine. Would like to stand quietly for a while, take a look at the night under the big stone, red lanterns, flashing WATER LANTERNS, listen to sound of rustling water can be also a luxury.
Fortunately, there are stone bridge in the Bunun bell. Small store, pick out a few lights plain paper lanterns, Youde read its name. Naxi girl sitting inside, will from time to time it with a small mallet percussion rows of bells, pleasure of hearing the passers-by. Often in stone on the bridge walk, went so far as this instrument is also used as ring tones, does not consciously looking for its existence with the ear.
Bunun bell will never be crowds, I do not know right where the Bunun, whether he still remembers it from the Yunnan-Tibet Cha Ma Ancient Road of loneliness?
Is located in Old Town Square on the 4th centenary of the color of Yunnan, is the name of an Inn is my home in Lijiang.
Standing a few steps away from the stone bridge, can not see the signs that it sidelong; many know the Flower Malaysia, Dashiqiao Inn who turned a blind eye is opposite the color of Yunnan. Because it is really very small. Inn entrance arrayed some of the common arts and crafts, not too pleasant to the eye of; small yard, a table, several stools, a shelf of the cabinet is almost similar to all the decorations, and coupled with a drying yard衣服. The staircase is a strangely narrow, When I first arrived at Qiye will be very worried about safety.
Is such a humble Inn, I can leisurely sit on the second floor balcony, waiting for the sun slowly rose up; rain nor Fang Shi, Ting Na broken bits of rain hit the roof, or, and rushes of the convergence of voice of the river; or look up a large stone bridge across the flowers to Macedonia, in the morning with backpacks packed his things in MM open French window, you can play and their greeting.
Is such a humble inn, it has a clean, comfortable beds, soft white linen, will quietly be careful that I do not dirty it again the next day put on a brand-new; memorable was a warm shower, wash away from the Lugu Lake, Zhongdian brought travel abroad; memorable night in the courtyard of that little light lights Chang-ming, can always find a home.
Is such a humble inn, downstairs to the courtyard, there is always a very full filling the thermos bottle; Kan Dian Xiao-Mei Liang a girl like glitter with a pair of big eyes and we are joking, always pack the house in good order; off to live here for several days, I did not pay off the deposit, no advance over the room rate, always very late at night or early in the morning Before leaving, the room rate stuffed young girl's hands, she laughs say no urgent ... ...
I am nostalgic for a period of days at the Colorful Yunnan. Before I left when the young girl (Liang girl) said to be more than installing a shower or bath, and, buy washing machines, I do not know somehow not?
