To the Old Town of Lijiang is a matter of National Day in 2000. But came back almost two years, every night the dream is always miss the Old Town of Lijiang Square Street.
October Yunnan, The sky was clear. A half-day ride from Dali's car arrived in Lijiang, and my heart still distant to think of the ancient city of Dali in the blue sky, there is an illusion of space and time, as if vaguely between the back of Jin Yong's novels, the marble, imagine that he is not one of Dali State Jun Zhu, or princess or something. Then so to Lijiang.
Yulong Snow Mountain to the day of rain and snow-capped mountains a rain and fog, the dim. Ganhaizi passing time, do not see the sky in the display. Listening tour guide said that the annual inter-Qi Bayue is Ganhaizi the most beautiful time, diffuse into the hillsides of wildflowers have been the horizon, the eyes of a brilliant mind, people really want to spend on such a roll to play the sea to be a colorful night's sleep dreams, flowers have been sweet to the hearts. Allowed to gaze longingly met baishuihe, melting snow on the mountain slopes along the gurgling down, converged baishuihe in cool Speranskia tuberculata. The legendary love of people in the children in the baishuihe wash hands, can work a lifetime. After a baishuihe seen a lot of tourists riding horses around the mountain in Yunnan thin upward. Plate bend over 18, they arrive at a Maoniuping ropeway. Along the cableway cable car ride to the hillside, but it does do not know. Mist-filled with snow-capped mountains, we felt that "people in this mountain, I do not know Yunshen Place." In addition to the spread of thousands of ancient trees, there is no snow-capped mountains to see snow and ice layers Diego's "true colors", the hearts of endless regrets.
The evening, with a yearning for the ancient city of Lijiang mad rush to the Square Street. Across from the city streets and alleys horizon, small bridges sound of flowing water mixed with laughter from the side of tourists walk through and talk about before, people think ---- that is sweet to Lijiang, ah, in the heart for a long time looking forward to for a long time and now finally truly touching the Lijiang ah! River where the tourists from the ends of the earth stood lotus lights, candlelight flickered in the downstream away, the heart also appears to have been emptied of so away. Yingying's moonlight pouring in the ancient city, the river surface, Yuet Wah water. Standing on city streets, the deep breathing, fresh air is the way, but inevitably there are silk Ju Yi, for fear that the beauty is just a beautiful dream.
Old Town of Lijiang is based on principles from the ancient city of Bagua surname ancestors built of wood, surrounded by without walls, to avoid the wall "storm" was intended. There is a small town square, called the Square Street, is a meeting place for city residents go to the market. Jade Dragon Snow Mountain on the melting snow flows from the city, dozens of wooden bridges and stone bridge connecting the town closely. Streaky slab on the cross linking of the alley, clean and beautiful, still you can see colorful stones color and luster. Lijiang Naxi residents in the town erected a downstream gates, to wash the streets every time the gate will be closed, so the water from the river up in the diffuse, diffuse over small town in every street, every household had diffuse. Then the gate lifted, brawl Wow, are all dirty with the snow away. For centuries, have not changed. Standing on the streets of Lijiang, I imagine that every household in the city hands clean of the scenes imagined Speranskia tuberculata diffuse over the snow in front of my ankle too diffuse cold, tread water and take pleasure arises spontaneously.
Passionate night of Lijiang, where streets and alleys around the shop and sell all kinds of accessories with strong ethnic characteristics, clothing and crafts. According to legend, Naxi Dongba culture for centuries, hieroglyphs are still used, is the only living hieroglyphics. The Naxi ancient music from the Tang Dynasty, passed down through the hole in Music, through snow-capped mountains of the purification, Cecil ear, people had forgotten ear. Lijiang smart people have written portrayed in the wooden plate, so swim back to tell people to bless the classical, distant, bringing back memories of Lijiang, it seems that every night you can hear the Naxi ancient music linger in the ear.
Yanzhehean the countless cafes bars restaurants, without exception, red lanterns hanging from the wall hieroglyphics written on the beautiful, open place with tables and chairs, visitors laughing. Lijiang is not the boss said, night day, every night Shengge. Travelers from all over come here will no longer walk, just want to stop and will be friends, take a look at the ancient city, listen to running water sound, while away maybe a little younger years may be hoarse. Very traditional, very ethnic, very Westernized, you can find any kind of coffee shop they want to feel. Passing through Lijiang, the ancient city of love, leaving behind too many people, so, here you can find friends, find a friend, and maybe even find love. So loved, they have to stay.
Dazzled in the ancient city for a stroll in the evening, bought numerous gifts, closing before midnight city obsessed with dismay to think of leaving, but in the cross exchange lost in the alleys, and feeling a Bagua Zhen powerful. Emotional heart a long time can not be quiet, so could not help the next morning once again came to Square Street.
Quiet empty streets no one there. Each store sales due to the middle of the night last night, sweet dreams are still the owner. Stood the ancient city overlooking the Yulong Snow Mountain, on top of snow-capped snow-capped mountains, the Millennium is not of perennial glaciers, snow-capped mountains at the foot of the small town of quiet beauty. Plateau early on sun rose up, bright sun through the eaves of fire in the streets, all the way to cast stained Bobo points of light. Last night, the din had subsided, the ancient city at the moment like Jiangnan Water Village, the two sides trees Yin Yin, the river flow gently. Further and further in-depth, standing on a winding alley and look at the end, it seems that the world's only one person himself. Guaige Wan, suddenly in an unknown alley saw an elderly Naxi woman, dressed in the traditional "daytime" in national costume, rickets ahead with the back. Come from behind a team of children, kindergarten's circumstances, from a female teacher with a. To the front, under the leadership of a teacher facing the old woman spoke loudly Good morning. Old blossom of the face is bright, All roads lead to wrinkles on the way to stretch like a flower blooming chrysanthemums. Lijiang plain brilliant together in this moment. Then began the shop door was unloaded down, the boss stuck your head out a day of happiness has begun. Lijiang Old Town there are still many families in hotels, every household had grown intensively in the courtyard of the flowers, the flowers from the yard stuck his head and greeted with a friend or vice versa. Family hotel accommodation and sanitary conditions are good, warm and hospitable people of Lijiang, the guests will be treated the same as their families, people want to go. Really want to live in Lijiang properly for some time to see sunny to snow-capped mountains, strolling in the ancient city where, or what their minds do not want to think about, it's that happiness with the happiness.
If we say that Lijiang is the color of night, then the early morning of Lijiang is a black and white. Lijiang people happy color, black and white people moved in Lijiang. The ancient city of Lijiang color seen the energy and vitality, black and white people feel that the years of Lijiang in sedimentation and deep feeling. So this way, I dream every night to see my black and white color of Lijiang.
I am sure I will come back. Back to my love of Lijiang. Very very soon.
