Lugu Lake, like a blue pearl inlaid Yanyuan County in Sichuan Province, and by the left Ninglang Yi Autonomous County of Yunnan Province Yongning at the junction of a pair of mountains. Looking down from the mountains, its shaped like wings of a Swallow.

At night, the forest deep loneliness, calm lake. Lugu Lake of the moon like a big silver plate, high-hanging in the Lake Central.
When we party dressed in silver moonlight, once again taken the courtyard, eyes suddenly light up, we saw along the lake suddenly emitted a crowded market. The original shoreline bordered by a lake Mosuo residential side of the pavement sub-Mu Lengfang all the open, brightly lit store, merchandise dazzling, dizzying.
Lugu Lake, is still using her last one the mystery of the Kingdom of motherhood as well as all over the world to attract tourists to China in tourism Quest here, where both the ancient myths and legends, have followed for thousands of unusual "walking marriage" custom.
The moon rose up, bonfires burned up, and the rise of hope, starry; broad view, full lake silver. At this time, about 30 Mosuo girls and boys came to a roaring fire piled next to them dressed in colorful costumes, in the firelight of the mapping, look full of energy, radiant. Mosuo people said the Department of Mongolian descent, so Moso men who are still flashes of the kind of rugged northern nomadic heroic martial spirit. They wore wide-brimmed hat made of wool felt, Kedang snow in winter, summer, cover the hot sun, dressed in the silk flower dajin trim T-shirt, the waist is colored silk tie belt, pants and the Han and fix differences feet wearing the popular shoes are now in the city.
Awhile, 20 dressed in colorful several beautiful white skirt of the Moso girl Benjin floor, hand in hand with the four small group formed a long queue of Moso, who along with flute, marching rhythm, around bonfires, singing and dancing.
Bonfire boys and girls who have been Mosuo expression of love for one another occasion. If a guy likes a girl, guy on dance with your fingers gently pull the girl's palm. If the girl Qing Qing small group, I would have to pull the finger back to small group of palm, until the time of night is over, when the dead of night, they Meet at the lakeside slopes of the dense forest, a total of spit Heartsongs, and build a small nest of love.
If we say that the mysterious Lugu Lake, in addition to the charm of its own beyond the highland lakes, then the Mosuo people has a long history of folk customs, especially the family, motherhood followed so far, walking marriage customs, and a range of colors with exotic cultures, other than for the forest The city people, I am afraid it is a very keen shrouded in mystery. Lugu Lake River Mosuo people a unique "walking marriage" form will make you feel both ancient and ahead.
"Walking marriage", that is, walked up and down meaning, very vivid. This marriage, both men and women each live in their own mother's family, between men and women to emotional basis, the two sides have no economic ties, make, and divorce are relatively free. Men's basically no obligation to raise their own children, he only responsible for the care and nurture their own sister's children (nephew), pension nail in the coffin but also on nephew, uncle's position in the family after his mother.
Moso love between men and women, mostly love at first sight. Both sides ogle, spiritual communication, attract each other after the man was sent in such a small gift for keepsake, if they are the woman to accept, you can direct appointments. When the night falls, families go to sleep later, the woman's husband went to spend the night there, the next day morning, the East will be exposed gray dawn, the woman's family was still sleeping when the man quietly returned to his mother's home. Marriage depends on the preferences of both sides, once the two sides feeling bad, as long as one party to break off, even if the suspension, the other party shall not be entangled. If the man, he was no longer going to visit, the woman know what's what; if the woman, she did not give him open the door, the man also left quietly. Both men and women would no longer find their loved one. This Marriage "game rules" so far seems to be reasonable and in advance.
Some people might ask, if a man love two women at the same time, or two men love one woman at the same time, how can I do?
By Mosuo people's "rules of the game," depends entirely on the woman or man, two women love a man, be decided by the man; if two men love a woman by the woman's choice. Lugu Lake River men and women, combined with faster than divorce, and, what is personal feelings, family members must not interfere, and discussions. Of course, there are accompanied by life-long loving people, but often scarcer.
Mosuo people in the field of love and marriage are also restricted, that is prohibited to go within the matrilineal descent, marriage, the implementation of clan exogamy.
In Mosuo society, the emphasis on matrilineal descent. In their concept, only the most pro-their origin, are reluctant to leave the mother a separate portal, brothers and sisters will always live together. In their heart of hearts, there's always a group of unresolved emotional problems Oedipus complex. So far, in the Lugu Lake River, there are still 60 percent of the Mosuo people to retain the "walking marriage" custom.
Morning breeze breeze, smoke curl, Lugu Lake woke up. From time to time, there came to the lake Mosuo women fetching water buckets and Dan Zhao.
Mosuo girl, beautiful, honest, generous. Green circle his head wrapped Pa Pa at the top to catch a blue silk printed fabrics, from pouring down the cheeks on both sides, until the chest, micro-Feng Fu, the scarf elegant, giving a dynamic, very flavor. Two strings of pearls on the head inclined slightly falling in the forehead, forehead, upper left 2 brightly colored flowers, with large eyes, high nose, mouth, melon seeds face composed of a harmonious picture of girls Chuchudongren map. Moso is the girl in Phnom Penh dajin upper body clothing, Phnom Penh, coat or jacket tied at the waist belt linen pattern or color silk belt, woolen belt, wrist wear Yinzhuo or ivory rings, copper rings and so on, downloading to a beautiful pleated skirt . This colorful clothing in the mountains, relieved against more dazzlingly beautiful.
Rows along the lake shore with row upon row of new sub-Muleng Fang, lakeside villages spread all over. Mosuo people mountain lake waterfront door, repair room to construct the building from local materials, living in a house of its wooden structure, the walls cut off the skin with logs cut at both ends of the bayonet base crafted interface. The above build is about four feet long, 78-inch-wide plank, commonly known as yellow plates, usually two in the other a yellow sewn onto the pressure plate, and then press on the rocks, neither leaking, but also Dongnuanxialiang . Housing is generally a screen wall for three or courtyard, are used Muleng Fang makes up, divided into principal room, after Tang Fang, dormitory buildings and gatehouse. Today, the lake shore of the Moso people almost all the development into its own courtyard hotels, eat, drink everything evil.
In the Lugu Lake River, regardless of Mosuo girls, young woman or old lady, as long as you have an invitation, they can be happy with, pictures taken, no charges.
Perhaps such a move with the Mosuo people have "ahead of" consciousness of "walking marriage" customs-related; perhaps, is the Mosuo people good, honest, easy-going character Shiran.
Lugu Lake is so wide there is no motor boat lake. Lugu Lake's beauty lies in her original style. When you heartily boating in the lake, in relation to the child if the mother's arms like a baby, warm and cozy.
Mosuo beautiful little girl born with a golden voice has, they can be while boating while singing, especially those with strong ethnic characteristics of the folk songs, really lets you hear mesmerized.
Every other boat on the lake singing in antiphonal style, can be said to do to have fun. Met or not met the visitors, across the sea vessel, as if hit it off each other singing in antiphonal style, enjoyable. Sometimes the rise of trying to shift the cool, pure water by hand Pick up, threw the other boat, a handful of lakes, often thrown over boat laughter. If the person does not show weakness, the two sides playing Shui Zhang, Eun-joo splash, it is dazzling, its fun scenes, I really can make a person Dunsheng "Return to Innocence" feeling.
