I do not know why particularly fond of trips during the winter months, perhaps depression is the kind of atmosphere, rare visitors, the quiet scenery can really get people to feel the natural environment, and not in the crowded when ranked team in scenic spots to live video phase (a friend jokingly called relatives and friends more). ANYWAY, no matter how, will be self-Guilin travel destinations, traveling before the Internet, newspapers to collect information on Guilin and the surrounding area information, travel notes, according to the time the need to develop a specific itinerary, and a friend after the leave of absence starting from the nearby backpack . It took three days to swim Yangshuo - Xingping - Yang Di - Lawn - Guilin. A little hard but it feels good, the following is that the three-day travels.
December 15 next week, at about 4:30 pm I meet friends at the Higashiyama subway, but the Pro has become a very eventful before departure, getting things done rushed to the site is 5 o'clock in the meet in time to catch a place only to find after the inspection equipment, forgot the film had no other option but to buy a film out of station is to be a popular saying runs almost every morning. Fangcun finally to go to Guilin Bus Station to catch the car, 60 of the sleeper car, the car was found after the appearance of the car is not as good as seen clean, especially the upper berth when the conductor told us to sleep, give up plastic bags that only take off their shoes up After the shoes are found on the foot of the bed position, that is, we must rely on the back of the shoe bed to sleep, smell the way the results of the taste of stinky shoes. I really appreciate the taste of vomit, finally suffered a 10 hour car finally arrived in Yangshuo in the morning and 5:30 pm. Out of stations, lost in East and West, take the car to a motorcycle Aberdeen youth hostels, Who knows the fundamental right to live in bus stop is less than 50 meters, which gives money to two seriously worth, but totally unfamiliar note of the Only honest was slaughter. After settling down a little rest, out of line to the station next to the Yangshuo Park, the old man chatted with the morning jogging Duxiu Peak inquire about the situation was about to climb Duxiu Peak intends to watch the sunrise To her surprise, it began to light rain, were dropped, returned to the hotel rest, after dawn near the hotel to eat lo mei shop in a pink powder. Later, intends to climb Green Lotus Peak, and asked the local twenties, passers-by, he said that there is only one path up the mountain, but after the rain to go bad, he seemed very strange why we would go hiking, he said that a child climb over the two times after Zaimei been to, people's habits are not usually travels his own residence and not be too familiar with what it feels like. Thanked him, climbed up the trail, he said, is indeed good to go, is a dirt road, no stairs, railings, at the foot of Shini always been confused sliding spent almost more than 40 minutes climbing the peak, is already soaked with sweat. Lijiang River overlooking the foot of the mountain scenery around Yangshuo, hazy in the morning mist derive greater sense of beauty. 10:30 the next hill to get his legs refused to take is already become soft (usually the consequences of physical inactivity).
Back to the youth hostel, rented a two variable-speed bicycle, Takada area towards the backdrop Takada area attractions to the camel crossing the river, large banyan tree, the moon hill known. Camel crossing the river is a bridge on the road afar Lijiang River in several mountain stretching up the river swim in the shape of a camel; big banyan tree is the legendary tokens of love Zhuang Ge Xian Liu San Jie throwing Hydrangea Millennium Gurong, Yung Shue exuberant foliage , the long branches stretching out like a green canopy, the tree has a curved extension of stream flow, stream across a three-story rocks, the upper middle of an inverted triangle hole, dimly see a mass of red Hydrangea things like hanging in the middle, the locals say that this is Hydrangea Hill, Third Sister Liu throwing Hydrangea place, I do not know whether the man hung up, but added there is a form of mountain stone toad vividly, even more so naturally lovely. In the mountains on the way to the moon are in Chinese, English signs show caves, mud baths of the words, I think of staying in youth hostels have a few figurines photos posted curiosity since turned into a village along the guidelines, Ying Chu 1 young people ( is said to be the village committee director) asked whether the rocks to see the Buddha, the village guides, priced at two kinds of mud-bath of 100 yuan / person, non-mud bath for 50 yuan / person, bargaining at 30 yuan / person transactions in the local were led into the dark cave, lighting, light from the wire and string a few lights on a 40W light bulb, broken light bulb and some sections (listening tour guide said that it was a rat biting wires) to rely on flashlights, because it is underground stalactite caves, there have been water droplets, we are so slippery roads or in the line, or squatting, or climbing, or grabbed the temporary peg coarse rope climb, or gingerly stood on a wooden bridge or ladder to the Dacheng down, side climbing side I wear white pants to consider what will become out along the underground river channel down to the river, because it was winter, especially shallow water, pulled trousers can be adopted, but we really do not want to wet the feet so cold weather walked up and down on the back of the head, along the lines coming out of its hole, come out to see there is one very much like a seated Buddha on top of the stalactites, tour guides say that this is the origin of the name of Buddha Rocks. Is not a very deep hole faster pace in dozens of minutes to visit all, but fortunately without the artificial carving Zhuo, walking up and will be very interesting and worth a play, follow the guides returned to their villages sat in front of the entrance to the village of rest, overlooking the moon Hill's monthly half-moon shadow, the most peculiar is that the moon mountains, hills are a natural big hole, two link up, such as the transformation from different viewing angles, you'll see Cidong initial Zhuangruo curved Shangxian Yue, has gradually become half-month, round month, then they become the old moon, in the cycling on the road you can see the lunar eclipse to complete the entire process.
Is a rest when approaching a girl, self-description is Yulong River grew up, and today bring people to the Buddha Rock, asked if we join with them to climb Mountains of the Moon, or even give us pictures of Yulong River, the mobilization of our tomorrow asked her to do guided tours to the Yulong River, Yangshuo has already heard about the Internet to do a bunch of local guides, today truly feel, but it is no effort to re-climb mountains, and thanked her foot after the bicycle back to Yangshuo.
Four o'clock, after the car returned to the hotel to the hotel asked around for tomorrow, Lijiang tour boat, remember Yangcheng Evening News had previously published a "cost-saving tour in Guilin," the article referred to the Yang Di xingping there go to the market boats, lawn, But the hotel people said only a cruise ship go, go to the market that we have missed the boat is not on the time of ride, you can help us set cruise ship tickets 120 yuan / person, but also recommended that we Quzuo Lijiang River cruise to see cormorant fishing in 30 nights yuan / person, with friends to discuss that night is worth going to xingping buy tickets on the set of the night of the votes, an appointment starting at seven in the hotel, with Friends of the yo-yo sway stroll Street, West Street is a Yangshuo county of about 400 meters of a pedestrian street, a bit like the ancient city of Lijiang in Yunnan street, stone road on both sides of shops, bars everywhere, visited the one in the stomach will feel called, I think of How many pieces of chocolate at noon apart from what is eaten ate see Red Star roadside bar, I remember that some people said that this family line PIZZA good, so push the door in, asked for a copy smell nice. After filling the stomach to continue shopping, friends of the shop is particularly interested in people, a shop can be a careful search continues, only to find a Hexin the water thing, but I really can not afford to raise interest in and saw a Internet cafes, and people think about starting online, see, and quickly go in, people who have visited West lost a friend, send text messages on the Internet with ICQ good hair a while busy, finished their day's pay for sitting around and found all Ghosts, almost thought they were in exotic, the time has almost 7 o'clock, to rush to look at night, the hotel who took us to the pier, a motor boat had been waiting on the shore, next to a small bamboo raft, the above stopped six cormorant, we sat motor boat to see into the water beside the raft on the cormorant fishing, we saw clear Li River cormorant water flowing in the slightest plants inside the shuttle, swimming fast, unfortunately a busy half-day only a few small fish Aberdeen, but also Cyprus is not enough teeth, and when the owner was shallow, said there will not be big fish in winter, it is seen with the previous books, feel different, can not help a bit disappointed.
Ten-point play and osprey camera, return West Street, into the traveler bar, impressively saw Red Star bar owner sitting inside chatting, and look around, after greeting the boss kick down, facing the wall in front of painted pieces of people's sketching the side walls with a brush read traveler 3 characters, packed down with a wide range above the signature, is a graffiti guests visited the bar. Am down with the bar atmosphere. To the two bottles of beer, sit down and discuss tomorrow's trip, is a headache tomorrow's cruise time, a waitress came and we chat, talk about the ship, she told us a very important message, that is, in fact rush Market Boat is open xingping 3,6,9, 1,4,7 open Yang Di, that is, if you can catch the next morning went to xingping boat to catch Hui Yang Di. She said she lived in the nine horse paintings at the foot of mountains, graduated from Yang Shuo tourism schools after graduation, like the atmosphere so stay in Yang Shuo Yang Shuo, while talking about the tourist area right now the money is also enthusiastic about the deep pain and evil decisions, unfortunately do not remember asking her name, with her help we were able to smoothly according to the original plan began to travel by boat Lijiang journey. 11:00, Lin Zhu beer out of the bar, went to bus stop 6:00 tomorrow morning, agreed to a tricycle xingping Pier 26 per (according to the bar girl, said the price of 25 yuan to bargain). West returned to the mouth of the famous night market to eat local Pijiu Yu, authentic Pijiu Yu had a part-time in the West Village to eat less, and good taste is not bad piracy. After the back fond youth hostel showers to sleep.
December 17 AM5: 30 minutes have been awakened by the alarm, toilet last night, after the appointment of the tricycle has been living at the gate, is actually very punctual, arrived at the dark xingping Terminal 7:00, asked the ship was 7:30 sub-issuance, on the back in the xingping town shopping, for a day has begun daybreak to see the way some people native to the terminal lug some direction, suppose is the boat go to the market, and then return to the docks, the ship had been leaning against the shore , the cabin is very simple, both sides are two rows of benches in the middle empty space for things that go to the market place, a number of loose stools on the sides, many people, half of the heap of goods Dao Shi, Li River tour boats began xingping - Yang Di right now part haunt early morning mist, mountains green show, as in Wonderland, this part of the attraction to 9 Ma is best known for painting mountains, naturally formed mountain ridges like a mottled fine horses, how many horses can hold only a eyes of the beholder, the wise see the chi, and reportedly can be seen up to nine (photo shown in Figure), you can try. Because it is sailing against the current, combined with winter shallow, the two sides the village from time to time someone will come by boat, ship lines very slowly, 10 minutes to the Yang Di. Followed by those who go ashore to the bazaar go to the market is in fact a small vegetable market in town, flat space-time with, go to the market when we all put on something to sell, milling around the head is pretty crowded. In the market to find the one near the surface looks clean, is also a small restaurant to eat breakfast, proprietress warm greeting us, eat dinner, storage bag in the store, inquire about 2:30 pm the ship separated from the lawn to the boat, as well as nearly three hours of time to inquire about the direction of the island to the moon, along the Lijiang River edge walk along the pier 15 minutes or so can go to an island surrounded by the river, when we went to the island full of leaves, on the ground thick layer of shops, wanders the dark and the surrounding mountains were particularly eye-catching, on the island there are many unfinished bamboo house which nestles at the leaves in the abandoned like a beautiful desert island, and only with friends, listening to footsteps I step on the fallen leaves rustle, basking in the warm winter sun, that's nice to feel lazy. Recommend they bring their friends come to the island barbecue or picnic.
Back to Yang Di, catch a 2:30 boat bound for the lawn, travels Yang Di - the lawn of the Lijiang River section, this time sunny, mountain reflection in the water clarity can be seen from time to time on sightseeing boat carrying a group of tourists through, I and friends sitting on top of inverted boat go to the market become their subjects. Especially funny is the boat trip to a village actually catch up a Hog. To the lawn was already five o'clock when the lawn is to walk two kilometers kwan'am, mountain shaped like ancient crown cap is estimated that name is with it, the kwan'am there is an underground cave, repair of the slide as the Guangzhou Baiyun Mountain, you can sit pulley speed Punching down the mountain, there are a lot of visitors. However, we go to Guilin to catch the 5:30 CMB, time constraints do not stay on the lawn. CMB usually 5 yuan / person, every half hour with a trip to Guilin is very convenient. Went to Guilin is already 19 o'clock or so, take the bus to Guilin motorcycle Aberdeen Youth Hostel (Binjiang Road, 46) 50 yuan / person, student ID 40 yuan / person, my colleagues up and down together rented a shop 4 bed room, there is a laundry room, coffee bar, bike rental, luggage storage free of charge, bathroom facilities are very new, very good health, according to attendants are often introduced during the peak season that there were no beds. Paused break out after shopping, have been looking for online presentation of the old and famous restaurant in Guilin, a big meal, passers inquire about the refurbishment of consolidation from Zhongshan Road Guilin restaurants, with the museum to have been dismantled, leaving only a hall and so we find wei shiang when they have closed down. No option but to go to youth hostels waiter described horsemeat pot a street, looking for a home to sit down and eat a pot of 25 yuan, even made 22 rice noodles, beef, horse meat up and feel like. Somehow bad. Eat after the turn around now, back to Hall tenants for the two girls had returned, asked about their trip is to take a train from Guangzhou to Guilin in the local with the tour, transfer a bit Guilin several parks, sitting Tourist boat to kwan'am, the want to make life difficult for Yang Shuo but the water was so shallow that boats had to fold back. In this way a few dollars have been spent in 1000. It seems we have fairly good luck. A night without words.
December 18 as early as 6 o'clock get up, climb in the northeast of Guilin Diecai Hill Park, to the days when you still daybreak, morning exercise in the elderly with a mountain, but added our leg muscles appears to lack behind, but the good news is all the way beauty unlimited, plus before they come to be several major parks on the Guilin scenic spots within the data collection, print finishing, according to Tussaud Station, let us appreciate the beauty of nature, apart from not forget to explore the ages of the literati patriots left in this poem and construction of the elaborate detail of the office. After the Seven Star Park and the Elephant Park, the guidelines are based on these data, was able to live up to this trip. Therefore, the preparatory work before the travel is also very important, as it allows you to play beautiful. Seven Star Park is the largest area of park in Guilin, Guilin, one of the postcards represent the camel Luo Shan's inside. Worth a visit.
Noon returned to the hotel after checking out luggage storage in the foreground, youth hostels offer free hosting service. Also went to last night in what wei shiang Hall, eat it signs a powder 3 to eat, by the way with the waiter asked around Guilin restaurants come to the museum with the place, turned out that it is a food group a few do, when you removed the renovation in the mountain , no further re-opened. Really everyone's fun. Afternoon, go to the Elephant Park. Xiangshan Park, while there are many stays rafts, and 15 yuan / person that you can send Elephant Park, in fact, from the Elephant's nose section that is sent to steal the moon in the water hole to go up all right, one would not know from the Council's Security What jumped out to you to pay 10 yuan tickets, so do not believe the words of those who stays rafts, honestly tickets up. Visiting the park and found time to play three more than there is, so he started looking for a place to dine at night in the stomach, grasping a few passers-by asked where there is food to eat in Guilin (Guilin, the attitude is very warm and really good), say that is not very clear However, people have mentioned the store in Guilin, or in the mountain, but also thrust backwards in the mountain, went to see the original is a comprehensive fast-food restaurant to provide Chinese and Western fast-food economy, the customer number. Take a look at menus is more common dishes, but to point a few samples did not eat a small snack as afternoon tea. Follow suit in a nearby commercial street shops, there is a commercial street in the decoration, and made a very good, the wide aisle two rows of European-style brick decorated stalls, it is estimated the future business center. After the renovation really have something. Hope to have the opportunity to stroll can also be returned. The evening back to hotel, in a nearby five-star dining Daewoo Hotel was originally a five-star restaurants to tourist areas should have the characteristics of Guilin dishes, the result was disappointing, but to a point of a fish, Lijiang River, while a waiter recommended a vegetables, listening to the Zheng and Erhu playing, because it is low season for tourism, unoccupied shops, the huge restaurant on the only us and a couple in two pairs of people to eat early and eat out, riverside night market stalls have been filled with slowly stroll a bit, but some of the snuff bottle with Ghosts cheat or something like that, fake enough to really harm the reputation of the millennium ancient. Back to the hotel to retrieve backpacks, boarded the bus at nine o'clock, ending a three-day trip. Recall that self-service travel backpack journey, although difficult, but it is more comfortable than with the tour, so that is very hard tour Guilin itself. Ha!
