Leisure Paradise Yangshuo
Was worried that "51" Yangshuo holiday will be overcrowded and did not expect that is not true. Although people than usual, accommodation is also a substantial price increases, but we use a line of five people are still a few days the United States and the United States to enjoy this recreational paradise, basic necessities, fully relaxed.
Food in Yangshuo, the most attractive we are not Qingshanxiushui, but endless food. In our minds, where the food is under heaven's. In the West, you can see the one to suffer a Western bar, "no", "unknown", "Seventh Heaven", "Tintin" ... are the cool names. Because here, particularly large number of foreigners, many bar owners themselves to foreigners, so Western food is very authentic and the price is very affordable and is about half the restaurant in Guangzhou.
Speaking of the bar's name, it's interesting is worth sharing. The words of my favorite bar name a bridge, if you walked from the West Street Bridge will certainly notice it. Anyway, every time I come it will be sat to read it written on four pieces of linen on the chic unparalleled calligraphy - "small, horse, and the sky." Every once read deeper layer of admiration and wonder, what kind of genius can come up with such a name to shock the world? The seclusion of heroes? K-Swiss is a talented woman should not necessarily bar. Finally one day and saw the red umbrella outside the shop sat a beautiful woman, delicate and pretty face, deep eyes, intuition told me that she was the store owner. So respectfully walked in front of her: "Will, you are pony, right?" She nodded her head till after the default meaning to admire, she said her surprise, she was puzzled ... shook her head: "It is our colt the boss is French. "" That he must have a deep attainments in Chinese bar! ..."" this name to the name have a known source, pony asked people to write its name should have been writing "colt coffee heaven and earth," But he does not speak English, he could not put a number of important words missing, so that they are now. "" ah ...?!" me, the days!
Closer to home, since the name of good is not good, of course, it really tasty things that had nothing to do. Before we are by pressing the "Mix (brigade of Friends)" written by Travels 11 to try to find the most delicious one - just a common name - Red Star Express Red Star Express, said the boss was a Singaporean. Here Chupin fast, the taste is, it is our loved ones. Red Star signs are PIZZA, more than expected, and extremely fragrant cheese, we must try! Another key recommendation is the Italian green noodles and chicken mushroom egg rolls. Italy blue face do not see the noodles, only to see a thick layer of chi increase in taxi meat is very tasty. Here is freshly squeezed orange juice is also great, as long as 5 yuan a cup.
Out of West Street, Yangshuo Chinese food does not depend, in addition to well-known outside of Guilin rice noodle, each stand has a "Pi Jiuyu" supply. We frequented one is the "golden girl", its name is the boss's name, name of his personality, his well-deserved reputation, ha ha. Carp 15 yuan a pound, medium boneless fish 25 yuan a pound, so a fish is necessary on the hundred dollars, although the taste of good, comparable worth is another cheap and good side dishes. Yangshuo more distinctive dishes are "stuffed" snail snail meat stuffed is to pull, together with other condiments chopped and then plug back to snail, the snail still delicious than fresh. There are bamboo shoots, stuffed, stuffed pumpkin flowers, pretty good. Fresh vegetables can be sure to eat, taste sweet, like eating the same vegetable farmers.
By late night, we travel notes by pressing the guidelines, go to find an elderly couple near the cinema opened shops Dunpin. The stewed chicken is said here, great legs. Because the position description was inaccurate, we have great difficulty to find, it is called "old in the snack," there is a beach umbrella and that house is a square. The chicken did not expect so much sought-after here, a long time ago sold out, we have to pay before the day set out early the next day, and had his home only to kill two chickens a day. "Why kill a little much?" "Because we are willing to eat chicken, chicken no one to eat, all of our own to eat, eat all we have a glowing of." Boss laughing Mimi said, pointing at her The two Ruhuasiyu daughter. The next day, we are 23:30 to find reservation legs, talkative boss is working with one person argued that a saw we shouted: "how come now! I am at least 50 individuals only then chicken down to stay up to now! This There is also a no go then! "We are well and sorry to my dear friend for who said that" as early as tomorrow, please, "the. When we sat down, boss Dunzhong side, a surge of fragrance has been into the nostrils. Because it is to go to chicken, chicken in the KFC to eat less than usual, but tasty meat, medicinal herbs brings a tasty, eat our praise. Such a delicious cup of chicken selling only 4 yuan, an absolute value for money, but not easy to eat it wants to. "Old in" The stew porcine brain is also worth a try. I remember an old friend trying to persuade a fellow of the porcine brain refused to eat the petite girl said I was tickled pink as saying: "Chichi Chi! To see someone build a good daughter of the boss, is to eat every day to eat out of porcine brain! "only heard in order to form fill-shaped, never heard of porcine brain can make up body to eat ah? !
Reminded: Guilin rice noodle eating, when he saw a lot of people eating a tea-oil, will sell well, so we called a two-bowl, a portal that is begun to regret it! Spotted fever than Huangzhen Long's still bitter herbal tea. But locals Daoshi eating with relish.
Friends who live in my home we recommend the hotel, but as 51 of this holiday, "my home" is not possible availability of the. And "My Home" is not on the West. Yangshuo West Street is the essence of quartzite shop road, Naxi-style architecture, will have to walk the streets. Blocks Yangshuo government to enact a notice in black and white: Walk with your bicycle, or pay a fine of RMB300. Literally come is "推着自行车either walk, or pay a fine of RMB 300."
West There are many inns, mostly in bars or shops on the second floor or above. 51 when the double room to 250-300 yuan, but said that normally can be as long as tens of dollars. We lived in Tintin set of elegant vegetarian restaurant on the second floor across the house. Set Ya Vegetarian boss is Chinese medicine practitioners, so are the antique shops and rooms. The clues do not see the rooms downstairs, the one upstairs is another kind of heaven and earth. Solid wood shop to the ceilings, wood windows are hollow, and the whole house a kind of drift wood flavor. Room positive West,坐在窗台上overlooking the busy West Street, pedestrian flow, such as the crucian carp. Our upstairs to see scenery, the people downstairs can not see us, this feels so good. Set Ya Zhai's boss and boss wife is very polite, but also recommended to us a number of delicious fun place. Live here, you can also buy the most affordable price fast where elegant set of things.
Reminded: We have a settled start of Ch'en Kung-hing, hotels, rooms narrow and damp, no hot water bath and wife also unreasonable, so we hurried to find the local exchange.
OK resolved to eat and live, of course, to find a place to play, but relatively speaking, because of Yangshuo is a leisure destination, so the best games are played apart from sitting in a roadside bar chatting leisurely reading of the cards, that is, in the West Street, a stroll, in a variety of shops can be found in a lot of treasure. We like to browse through is the one selling in Tibet and ethnic jewelry shop, we have taken when it is stood NIRVANA song. The owner is a long-haired youth, I am proud to say, "Once we have found another home selling the same thing, we will not sell immediately. So what we sell is unique."
In addition, people who love Western music Blessed! West has 3,4-home CD stores, each can find a number of classic pop music. We found a favorite BLUR, NIRVANA, BOB DYLAN, SADE, DIDO included a complete, shopkeepers also introduced a lot of heart water to us. 10 or 15 yuan a single platter, as long as not afraid of embarrassment, you can open the office again.
In Yangshuo, is essential an element cycling. Rent usually 15 per day, holidays doubled. Mountains of the Moon is generally the direction of the ride, along the way Pumian breeze, beautiful scenery, both sides of the road was also full of white oleander. For too long there is no cycling of us, feeling like back in student days. Is said to take the path to better view, but the tour guides lead the way required.
Like the adventure and excitement of the trip-you do not miss Yangshuo a feature - crawling caves. When eating breakfast, they heard the waiter to introduce newcomers to the foreigner: "You should go to the Water Cave. It is very adventurous. You must go!" We go to the moon, water-rock mountain next to the Bodhisattva (Buddha's Cave) . Used to develop a good read, with colorful light irradiation with caves, a rock into the Buddha felt different. Pai lou a pass, which becomes dark one. The lighting of the cave is very simple, is to pull the most primitive of the electric light bulb, there is a tour guide with a flashlight. Because there is no road repairs specifically for tourists, so many places to squat, cross, climb, and even to crawl forward. For security reasons, each made a helmet, or else have to dislodge a big package to. The stone cave is naturally the most unusual and sigh for the concept to, but we have no intention to pay attention to, only bent on enjoying the climbing process. Such as whole body covered with mud, spat way out of its hole, you see a bright future there must be feeling!
To go back when cycling, but also to a large banyan tree beside the river to go sit in the shade. Not only enjoying Yangshuo Qingshanxiushui, you can also Renqing to swim or sitting bamboo raft.
In Yangshuo, many people will recommend you to Clinton visited xingping fishing village. We are celebrities not too cold, but it is certainly worth a visit Xingping, so cycling the next day, we will take 3.5 per of the CMB to xingping, then a half-hour boat ride (25 yuan / person) to the xingping fishing village. I have is the second coming, but everything, and last came to exactly the same. 5 yuan, or tickets, or that old man, Hong Zhaoyan really gives us, as an endorsement Side, said: "The United States President Bill Clinton July 2, 1998 Lijiang tour was to xingping, there are helicopter tours during the submarine under escort ... .. "I also like the last time that he did not finish on the escaped Shenxiang go. Xingping fishing village is indeed a small, but very quaint and the construction, there are many good photographic subjects. After the boat returned to Xingping our riverside a "Bamboo Hotel" to eat. Here is xingping the best scenic spots. A sit down restaurant owner would perhaps get us out of a 20 yuan RMB, and we thought what a need to pay protection money it was originally let us look at the above pattern, with the scene in front of almost the same. Lijiang of a deep-fried fish here is very delicious, we ate a less than satisfying and Sipilailian Can you re-sell the boss asked, half-disk to us.
Reminded: Go cycling or on foot, then, must be coated sunscreen. Climbing cavern good day not to wear clothes, because it might be broke.
Clothes in Yangshuo, dressed in the most important, so I put it last. West Street, the stretch can be, and are dressed in casual travelers, how comfortable, how come. So, you can arbitrarily vest / shorts / pajamas / swimwear / slippers filling the streets. Instead, if there are individuals wearing a shirt and tie, walked from the West Eighty per cent of people would think he was sick.
West there are many cultural T-shirt, his chest becomes very interesting to write a few words. Anyone can find suitable, for example: I am bored, do not attention to me, no money, no wife, I am very handsome ... ... I found there is a quite special clothes, because it is actually written in English, but also it is a small, closely-packed words, appears to be written by foreigners, probably means that warned of the Chinese people, "10 Do not." Specifically remember, and probably is not to jump the queue啦, do not throw things啦, do not stare at foreigners看啦most impressed by the use of a foreigner is not to practice English. Yangshuo-called "global village", and even open tricycle's aunt can speak fluent English, and many foreigners also teach English for a living, can not think they actually feel that they have been used, appears to have received a lot of nuisance.
Street was still very popular on a batik cloth, not sold at other tourist spots in the kind of dark blue, but a variety of bright colors, beautiful pattern brings a cheap, 20 yuan a vest, skirt 50 Yuan 1, so both men and women have a lot of tourists wearing such a fancy street clothes sitting on the bar, and West of the ancient atmosphere of complement each other.
Reminded: No, as long as it wants to not wear too formal.
Bus ride from Guangzhou to Yangshuo, 7 hours or so to get there. Proposed night train, you can save time. If you go to the weekend, then the total cost of round-trip tickets plus accommodation, only a few hundred yuan, absolutely make you feel the value. The most important thing is, where you can truly relax and enjoy the feel of tourism.
If there are more than two weeks of vacation, I will go to the Qinghai-Tibet; if there is a week's holiday, I will go to Yunnan; if there is only two or three days, then Yangshuo is definitely a good choice. There is no plateau brought dazzling and stunning, she is like a plain girl next door, faint, but thought-provoking.
