AD June 20, 2002 afternoon, I am a people in low spirits at the OFFICE, the want to send a gift to yourself. I want? I want to play this game! Where then? People say, "Guilin mountains and rivers under heaven, Guilin, Yangshuo A"! Invited to see with it? The table a shot, big deal back when a maverick! Guilin weather forecast said that the floods do! No matter, even a hotel in Yangshuo where mad sleep for three days, I have to flee the city.
Overnight on CTRIP search information, the hotel. The next day evening, I have landed at the airport in Guilin. 20 yuan Airport BUS about 30 minutes to the train station. Station you can see the air-conditioned minibus to Yangshuo, 15-minute intervals, the point and go. Along the way look at the distance of Castle Peak looms, green water far away, smoke curl, Wan into the myth of the Kingdom, nose an acid, almost tears. This is not what I dream home Mody Lane? Although strike through, there are sons to return home, Ruyan homing feeling. Only when Cijing on the value of cross-As far as I see her.
One and a half hour bus ride to Yangshuo. Hua Shui Hotel has been at the station waiting for the boss. The two mobile phone at the same time a ring, then connected to the head. Hotels are scheduled by pointing online, 75 / Standard rooms have air-conditioning (with no air conditioning until 65)! Used to live three or four-star hotels, 75 in my city, the fear is that even the guest houses, live not on a bed! I always unsettling, and the dark determined that if an "eye" substandard, flew Jiaodimayou, leave! However, up to the hotel, really let me pleasantly surprised. Hotels on the famous Bar Street - West Street exit, it is a beautiful three-story Chinese-style buildings, gray tiles red eaves and white walls, ancient style, room Ming-style chairs, wood carving decoration, room, wooden flooring, separate bathroom, there are hot water, slippers, hangers, toiletries, 1.2 meters of bed and bedding very clean and tidy, in short, feels worse than than a Samsung hotels. Absolute ACCEPTABLE! (You can also go nuts?). Hotelier very warm on my subsequent trip to help a lot of busy.
The boss a good discussion tomorrow's trip, settled down after the Ministry of borrowed bike out "Wen Shi." Backstreet the intersection of West Street and the county is the gear cluster. The receive adequate guidance, netizens did not go to the reference to "thank the big sister", and chose the nearby "Peng big sister." Yangshuo "Pijiu Yu," legendary, in fact, is an approach, raw materials - fish for their choice. MENU startle a look at the famous Lijiang River sword fish bone 80 / jin! (What is this fish? "Golden" fish ah?). Gross bony fishes 30 / kg; grass carp 18 / jin. Immediately decided to take a middle course, to taste hair bone fish (counter-offer to 25), etc. Tomorrow familiar with "the enemy's potential rival for the" re-solve the sword fish bone. Sure enough, "It tastes great." Sitting in the street stall, a mellow taste of Pijiu Yu, filling one of the Li River Quan Pijiu Qinglie, listening to four creation to shout three drink six to see people coming and going all directions, Kaoru Kaoru ran I do not know who are far from home.
Fond, turn back West. Quartzite of the road, both sides of the same color pattern in Guangxi residential buildings, upstairs room, ground floor or in a bar or a shop or Internet cafe or a travel agent, all kinds of Chinese traditional arts and crafts, CD discs, postcards, catalogs, original / pirated foreign instruments. . . Everything. Foreigners more than the Chinese, or Duzhuo, or dance, each doing its own Huan, crowded. After a bar, to hear a foreigner say: so many foreigners here! Think of this group of foreign devils traveled to China a remote town and found that the streets of the foreign devils, can not help but fun. Street, at the end of the Lijiang River embankment, a group of students in Guangdong to the fireworks. Fireworks glittering the night sky in the river deep, sultry reveries. Cursory lap had been late at night, so turn around now, ready to keep a good spirit, tomorrow incursion.
Saturday: up early in the morning (9:00, do not laugh, usually the weekend, but I did not get up to 11:00). The boss looking for tour guides have been waiting in the hall. Saotome look like a fat girl (later found to accept this guide is my trip to Yangshuo, the only wrong decision) in the roadside out of the city to eat a bowl of incredibly delicious Guilin rice noodle (only know that I am the city of Guilin how well rice is ridiculous to go board), I wear a wide-along hat, sunglasses, wiping a good anti-嗮cream, take the step up with the hotel rented mountain bikes (10 / day) to the destination - Yulong River Departure . Ride takes about 1 hour.
Picturesque scenery along the way, but the sunshine, a bit much. From time to time to sit around to see three-wheeled motorcycle Dodo passing tourists, they curse in their hearts that they are pig's head, so why ask for it. Riding near Baisha Town, the roadside selling grass jelly (0.5 / bowl), my God, this is my money at least in this life has been the biggest delicious food! Have a pair of cycling couple (I am one to see in Taiwan people) is also stopped. I therefore strongly recommend "really good to eat Jesus," as if I'd received five cents of the two Mao COMMISSION like. You eating grass jelly chat. Was originally found on the same site, read the same one travels, living with a hotel, go to a destination today with! Relative laugh! Eating grass jelly, and there are a playmate, everyone in high spirits and continue to proceed. Soon hooked countryside dirt road and saw three beautiful handsome guy on the motorcycle had been a Ku Gualian Britain, and our mountain bike very much at home, flyby and over, so changes in the heart called them pig's head.
Yulong Qiao head has a head of the little monks, not stone. The villagers said that the invasion of Japan when the Devils were not found (all hiding in the mountains) to vent their anger destroyed. Stopped a lot of river raft. There is a row of light stays the rafts Pipi kids playing in the water, big hurry to see us a little squat, kicking up phase, as the Taiwanese wife and I lucky. From here take rafts drifted to the big banyan Shun Yulong River, about 5-6 hours (per raft two ,100-140 / raft). Cross-strait beautiful scenery, rounded mountains, deserted as little. If you are drifting off in the Wuyi mountains, which, he feels strange about (I do not think it makes the masses fascinated User boasts啦). However, sitting on a large parasol rafts, cis-a river, the look lies to turn a blind eye when the water slowly meditatively, red hopping astonished when the dam, may also provide a pleasant leisure travel oh. Taiwan couples are the heavyweights, with the two cutting-workers have been Biaofeitizhuang, and I had everybody on the rafts as light like Yan, each had a dam, we Yilue and before, back to hope that they will raft heads high Alice in stuck in the dam, we Qi laugh. Raft on the way stop at the riverside village of workers stopping for a rest to eat, remember not to eat "peasant food"! A chicken 45, scrambled eggs 12 (chicken? "Golden" chicken! What egg? "Golden" egg!). Dao Shi village women selling zongzi, corn on the cob, delicate fragrance and delicious and cheap (1 / a), enough to fill his stomach, and never make you hungry to death As bamboo raft, the river "Dongpo corpse." Approaching large banyan tree, the shore 32 cottages, two beautiful MM Zhuozu river Cuxi good talk, and their two handsome guy in the next to the dam and the local farmer's child leisure. People just do not really envy Yuanyang Xian Xian.
Drifting the end of the big banyan tree with rafts (10 / person) can ferry to the big banyan Park (Third Sister Liu, and tokens of love bull Columbia Office) in the vicinity, but has just sat for nearly six hours of my rafts, are naturally interested. Direct abandoned raft ashore. Cycling has been transported to the shore, tour guides are also waiting with a. So the direction of a pedestrian to the Mountains of the Moon Fakie. Mountains of the Moon I think there is like a jade-kyu. Netizens praised the "Water Buddha Cave (the Buddha Rock)" on the hillside village. 60 / 1.5 hours, 100 / 1.5 hours (two or more must be counter-Oh, look at your ability, I see the night sky because of the election of 60, and Kandao 50). Cave is developed by the villagers themselves, is really an almost primitive cave, in the dim light, the hands and feet, narrow places where only one person bent over, the steep areas have to be climbing down ropes real stimulating adventure! However, I do like the wind on the down-Jiao Qieqie small women can get out, no need of you two shares station and dread. The most interesting thing is there is mud lake, there are handsome guy apart from anything else, in addition to clothes into the mud, long call short call, they played the mud war. The most funny is that while a small room, natural waterfalls, such as showers from the central splash, is simply designed for the mud bath Takeo tiger woman dedicated shower room! Although I do not want trapped in muddy, but the cave explorers enough I had Lianhu enjoyable.
Out of the cave is more than 6:00, a Q-to-know South Korea Spain actually to get rid of. Let us lament the World Cup than the hole is also dark!
Jingyang farm in the village to eat dinner. Last point of the "gold" chicken (the chicken self-support, 40 / only), but full-bodied mellow in no way greasy chicken one entrance and felt only the occasion of the chicken is really worth ah. 5 years ago, a farmer had eaten stewed chicken, miss so far, and now I am afraid to make me dish Hunqianmengying decade. (Write here, not wait for them, "thousands of miles to go to Velvet Chicken, Guan Shan crossing Ruofei," and then go back and try it.)
From the village along the road back to Yangshuo, cycling about 30 minutes. This road is known as "Shilihualang" really well-deserved reputation. "Workers and peasants Bridge" afterglow beautiful and heartbreaking. There is a public and foreign photographers capture hobble around Zhangqiangduanbao. Re thick skinned, I did not dare pull out your own machine show oneself a fool. Along the road through the "concentration Longtan," "Butterfly Spring", rock climbing base, etc.. I suggest that those who received tickets for attractions no need to go, because "the beauties of springtime lock in limitless," there is nothing in the breeze in the Sunset Village Fangge riding more happily to do now!
Back to the West, wash, change clothes (along the way many foreigners at me straight in covered with mud laugh, another hint), straight bar watch the match. Do not remember who played whom, halo Hu Hu to see only a group of crazy to go from left to right, then go left from right. Watching the game (do not remember who wins) continued to "mop up" Street. Blocks there is a musical instrument stalls, stall holders have the old man pulling the erhu for self-entertainment and entertain the people and to attract business. Bought a Lusheng (18 / rats), the old man taught me now is learning, one old and one small, echoed each other, Ou noise suck can not do anything dumb to listen to, also considered West for a visit. Through the West, I suddenly feel that foresight to see me, see the opposite side head bar man, a clean and refreshing, and his 35 friends to talk about with a smile, beer mug in hand, eyes but look to the side. I have a bow, they have gone through. Slide lap back, met the same eyes, but vision is a cross has gone in an instant. However, the feeling of envy hearts float unprovoked, Hen Buneng join the crowd, or my large Hupenggouyou heaven, where Sri Lankan mixed Chijiu chat is really busy with lively benefits. Chang Chang to see the street Shuanzhao a puppy as long as the local dog with astute intelligence and a long face, a look of childish, I see it, it will emerge looking at me, look at it, it will be wagging tail, I complex feelings and good together, and this little thing played a full half an hour before we reluctantly walked in to the riverside. Like the quiet, and this Xiasi Jiangbin road is an excellent place for a walk. Under the embankment is the Lijiang River, the river dark and shiny, peaks scattered Cho-li, a scene that an air-ming beneath pure heart. Bannister, I sat for a long time, until thin on Lang-Xing, human language gone wholly unnoticed, only slightly cold arms wrap hotels.
Boss deliberations tomorrow's trip. Lines of the original plan is to xingping, sitting a Lijiang tour boats (50 / person), and then return to Yangshuo. However, his wife said in Taiwan yesterday morning they are very avenue Britain takes an hour, but not as good as this section of Lijiang Yulong River. Introduction by the boss (and for the Public User confirmed), travel agents, cruise monopoly downstream from the down by the Yang Di Guilin, Yangshuo xingping to the line (about 200 / person! And many lots are people drowsy, do taken for a ride). Lijiang the essence of the Yang Di - xingping section. Yangshuo to the Yang Di (4.5 / people), while the road than to the xingping (3.5 / person) is far, but the road is good, just 45 minutes that is that the Yang Di-employed in private motorized fishing boats travel to the xingping (130 -150 / 2 - 6), then xingping back to Yangshuo, the best of both worlds is not it? Unfortunately, the night his wife would have to leave Taiwan. I also washed back to West Street, would like to recruit a lower per capita cost of two to increase the momentum of the atmosphere. At this time (11:20 a) Street has been the lights sometime, Qu make people thin. I have pairs of targeting. Surprisingly, cheek to ask a few "right", found that all single, handsome guy to travel around I thought it was a beautiful girlfriend MM is actually guide! Anti-tour guides have been asked MM Otherwise Yaogen their programming! (Truly outrageous). Repeatedly rebuffed, I am anxious to give a "Dr. Mix" sign in the streets, a back and forth through the streets, but think about it, our generation laymen, or to avoid doing this so shock the matter. Unhappy in the blocks food stands midnight snack and sat next to a foreigner, just like he HU Kan, his trip has been scheduled, but had his blessing "HAVE A NICE TRIP TOMORROW", I was happy.
Sunday: is up early in the morning (9:00), went to Riverside Road, walk a horse in a circle. Morning Lane Lijiang do have some fresh Roumei, I stood for some time. But then came the last night the puppy. Little guy is clearly recognized me, eyes clear, and whining at me to call, mad wag, only a thin nodded and smiled. I once again be tempted in the past. It took me by the wrist with it in your mouth and gently bite, paw to my feet, this pair like to feel in my heart to have extreme dismay. (Why people are wary of hard to close it?)
And the puppy good-bye to a bar washed their hands, point the juice and toast for breakfast. This time, West had only a smattering of pedestrians passing the seat I sat in the street, blazing to drinking orange juice, watching the sun a little bit of land closer to his mind a blank, muddy muddy, and really happy time.
10:50 hop on Yang Di's mini-buses (seems to be 15/20?-Minute intervals). 11:35 a to Yang Di, I know that I did last night is absolutely a wise decision. Linjiang small fishing village, Castle Peak, such as screen, clear water, such as belt, 32 of the bamboo rafts, fishing boats lay in riverside, a few ducks splashing in the water cruising, the country girls in the pound white maiden's red dress clothing, a long pigtail hanging behind. . . Moment, "Xanadu" It's words on the floating my mind. Chuanniang are burned lunch, Lijiang inside the fish (a bit like Japanese food more than the spring inside the fish) fried green peppers, one disk fried bamboo shoots, pumpkin flowers, the simple but delicious taste great. The owner opened the boat, I mouth, eager for food, greedy eyes to see beauty, I really hate father and mother gave me Why do not "third" eye! (It is not willing to move the table Xiecai eyes, but they could not bear to eat such a delicious dish!). Owners and tour guides, 11 introduced the river Zhu Feng of the pictographic and allusions. Lijiang River scenery really looks extremely beautiful, non-verbal description can only feel the heart. I sat alone in the bow, the two sides of Castle Peak and the row of command to a horse before, I would like to enter the long river of history, and if flying in a brilliant movement, the only "crazy" of that feeling. God, This land so Jiao, how would there be, "Do not Jiangshan to Beauty" pig! (However, once a Hangzhou stunning beauty, I Youtan Matchless Beauty, beauty can no longer get to Jiangshan Zuoshen, cough!).
Boat trip halfway, large cruise ships passing, there are beautiful foreigner MM and small handsome guy to me waving "HI", I happily respond. Ship too far away (such a fast speed, can see what! 200 yuan real injustice which), I suddenly Huiguo Shen, both of a foreigner as a fisherman most of my daughter! Can not help but laugh.
Ship to Xingping, stopping at a small pier outside the town, along the mountain side you can walk 20 minutes to Xingping. I am carrying a pack on foot riverside shoulders felt really good. Lijiang to see through the bamboo forest scenery, not the same as the United States, may be the same way stirring! Online said that there travelers passing through this place, by the beauty of charm does not go to stay there (if I can...) Along the way encountered a bicycle foreigners, two pairs of sat riverside landscape of small hill looking couple, a group of farmers scattered set , there is a "beauty"! Beauty umbrella in front of me curl Nana direction, and posture slender, fair-skinned, I could not help but ask the way to catch up with an excuse to go to to see the truth about the matter. Beautiful one turned around, I almost fainted. Dark and old and wrinkled is also snag! (You have not seen Mei Cai Kou Rou? It is that situation like) God, this is only seen in books on the scene today, actually did happen in reality! Consider also have their own way with the vertical extension of three feet all the way! Ren Ren Xiao well hard.
By xingping can climb the old Cypriot mountain, overlooking the xingping Mid-levels, such as Wonderland.
And walking in the town, like the clock back four decades, has not been a real "town" of the countryside. I do not have to stay (too hot, and hot weather, 32 degrees, my evil attack, began to miss the immense air-conditioned room), get on the minibus to Yangshuo (15/20?-Minute intervals), Britain in 1 hour (under roads, bad roads, he drove very slowly) to Yangshuo, to dispel the rest and eat, "the sword of bone fish" idea, only Ben Guilin. 1.5 hours later near the train station in Guilin to find a new hotel opened Samsung (160 / single room), washing clothes, air-conditioned open-feet, to quilt a drill, the bulk of sleep I feel, ah, another Happiness!
Wake up at night is already almost 9 pm. Found near the Hyatt hotel in a slip of the food stalls (with air-conditioning Oh), point the "sword of bone fish" (until 20 / jin, mostly farming, and lessons learned: Pi Jiuyu only in Yangshuo eat), fried river snail. Fried river snail is too delicious, I eat one, Tsan out "delicious," eat one, and then boast out "delicious", a large snail eating, saying that nearly 20, "delicious", although he also feel fed up, but really could not help but do not praise the human taste.
Enjoyed the food, strolls along Taohuajiang. Everywhere is the man-made, "Fireworks", bustling crowd in the river "street Kara OK", is virtually a "noisy", I quickly fled. A walk around town these days has already 12:00 o'clock. Guilin Riverside Road user said yes, I think the country's cities are engaged in this type of Daxing Green Dongdong, similar, has no interest in the. Not as good as back to hotel to sleep.
Monday: Early in the morning is still up (9:30), 80 yuan package at the hotel door of a taxi to Guilin, and the various attractions stroll to the airport. (50-60 packages a day can be!) As netizens said, "Guilaibukan Yangshuo Guilin", besides the "Reed Flute Cave" in amazing cave (tickets 45 / person), the other can be seen from afar, do not have to waste a ticket.
The aircraft arrived in the afternoon, I changed shoes and headed OFFICE went to work. Looking back, Cheng pulls, like the United States just a dream.
A few days later, on CTRIP see a "Beauty and the Beast Tour Guilin", the original this group of beautiful forefoot away, rear foot I was admitted to the Chinese extraction. Laugh. I wonder if I go, who live in, to continue the chain travels?
TIP 1: Yangshuo best suited to a few friends, self-tour, and boisterous in government expenditure.
TIP 2: Yangshuo hotel are many similar, the price 60 - 80 /, the off-season when it comes to the field can be seen, according to their own preferences slowly pick. (But the boss said that if the peak season in July, "Golden Week" holiday will be risen to over 200! I do not know true or false). If you're lazy, they live in China Cui better. Phone 0773-8821355. If you have the leisure and can be made to live in the outskirts of farming. 15 / people, no air conditioning, but the boss said, was to be cool at night Gaibei Zi (I do not know true or false), Jing Yang farmers Phone: 0773-8902188
TIP 3: In Guilin, Yangshuo, in addition to bus fares, remember that everything should be counter-offer. The above prices are LIST PRICE, also how to see each of the. Things on the West for at least half!
TIP 4: If you are a guide, we must force him / her take you to walk or ride a countryside paths, rather than just in the big hurry on the road. If you do not me so lazy, provincial and time itself out over the countryside in Yangshuo, a walk to catch spots to ride than the absolute value of riding.
TIP 5: If you have four days, you can seek to Longsheng terraces.
TIP 6: I travel itinerary attached to this, all of you to compare:
D1: Elephant Trunk Hill, Fubo Hill, Diecai Hill, Reed Flute Cave, Mt, (to day?)
D2: 7:00 to get up early vessels grow in Lijiang tour, noon to Yangshuo in the afternoon return to Guilin by car, visiting the Jewelry City (?!)
D3: Visit the "World Light", "Xiong Hu Villa", on their own shopping (what with what the Well)
