To stay in Shenzhen, was depressed, whim: Why not take a trip in Yunnan?

Yunnan yearning for a long time, most want to see the Dali, whether it is long, long time ago on the Five Golden Flowers of vague impression, or later in the "Dragon 8-step" read the clouds to the south of the Dali, Dali is like a a mysterious utopia, people rapid heart beat, Fu Xiang Lian Pian. High school there is a wish: to go to Yunnan, to the Dali go! Now finally be realized.

October 21, 2000 discounted early morning fly to Kunming is more than 12 noon, Shenzhen, Nanning rain all the way, people deeply concerned, in the rain You are Tingyou fun, but still not made a.
Off the plane, you can see is blue skies of Kunming, warm sunlight on the body is really comfortable, the way the depressed displeasure suddenly swept away, THANKS GOD! At the same time in the second prize ticket, free day trips and Samsung hotels Shilin night, LUCKY!

Dali bought tickets to go at night, decided to go take a look at the Western Hills. The results of a half-day tour of the Western Hills is no feeling to see is the thick edge of Dianchi Lake and garbage floats, while the Golden Dragon at the end of a sudden people are of the ticket down enough to taste, spellbound. Kun 100 big night food stalls near the mess together, and end in tears following the fate of Ju: HOT.

October 22, 2000

Drowsily sitting in the car, the Hu Ting someone cried out: Dali to the! Dali to the! Take a look at watch, 6:05.

Dali,洋人街, Three Pagodas, Erhai Lake and boating. There is no scenery of Dali impression, I just feel too sound reputation and practical too common, Butterfly Spring can not be bothered to go, and hope that the greater the disappointment will be. On the contrary still impressive, however, are residential homes in the洋人街Bai drinking three tea that morning. Tea is a residential, a small facade, is not aware of will be concealed in the sides of Western or Japanese-style coffee shop where the shadow is not the door we could see straight through the 5,6 m shadow side gallery wall, above the written big one "tea." To bypass the video wall, is an ordinary small homes, face a variety of flowers. Go into the first written on the wall look at the three tea explained坐在院子里slowly first, bitter taste, after sweet, and then the ups and downs of the three tea aftertaste. Listening to the hostess tell the story of tea, such as life, before your eyes are too warm morning sun, boils water to tea smoke blowing water vapor, sitting on a stool beside the young girl turned looked at the book, although not the season, but is still in full bloom with camellias, leaves little but end up with a lot of apple trees, can not help but have a very quiet and tranquil feeling, this feeling of floating in the air and to instead, the intention of people to drink tea to forget.
Afternoon, riding on a car to Lijiang, has brought several guests big beard, dark-skinned guests, has shown signs of thought it was Tibetan, and later talking to know misunderstood, but also tourists, or the same train from Kunming to Dali, the Ting destined. To Lijiang for three hours, cars from the plains on the plateau, all the way around the mountains, along the hi strange case of Yunnan, one of 18 "half sun, half of rain", with a long absence, big rainbow hi reunite, and we had a group of tourists shouted the driver to stop Let us get off making the Rainbow (this time halted the case at a later journey that many times), very interesting.

Out of the car, went straight to Old Town of Lijiang.
First saw the ancient city, the commercial shops along the street, there is no good feeling. However, one into the Square Street, fresh feeling immediately rushing toward us. Lijiang ancient city streets and alleys lined by rounded stone shop, giving the feeling is more like the Yangtze River Delta, Yangtze River Delta and is idealized. I have been to Suzhou, dirty alleys and foul-smelling river people will not have any travel-hing, but Lijiang is different from everywhere to see some urgency in the river flow, width, some are 56 meters, some 12 meters, flow clear bottomed out, is said to be shed from the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain on the snow. In the Square Street, bypassing the commercial shops, flocks of tourists to escape, after a stroll in stone on the road, watching the face of approaching a number of the lady dressed in Naxi dress, flanked by residential areas and dazzling ancient willows, tease a tease Roadside cute puppy or kitten, buy a little snack never seen before, or sitting on the coffee side of the water side of a cup of coffee while the sun is really a great pleasure in life, a vague sense that I am afraid that there is I dream of the Utopia bar.

Naxi ancient music to listen to the evening with friends. I have always been music, self-cultivation is not very high, do not like folk music, usually accept Faye Wong, Japan and Western music, but with the Guzheng "landing" is heard, when the music sounded quietly, sitting in ancient music hall, I suddenly There is a feeling of SOUL, quiet, peaceful and sacred, a spiritual cleansing and purification. This is precisely the pursuit of tourists from all this realm of it, ancient music pavilion, a lot of commercial packaging and promotional hype, but this does not affect your feelings for music, and this feeling for music, but it is tens of millions of words can not describe. Seventy to eighty-year-old entertainer on stage playing like turn a blind eye, as if they revel in their own music, while the four Naxi girl's chorus to sound as if Teana, let us return to the ancient Tang Dynasty. For the first time feel: ancient music is so beautiful chorus of the original can be so beautiful!

Today, October 23 Cloudy, Yulong Snow Mountain is only one following in the early morning dew on a long time to hide in a sea of clouds, the wire ignoring those of us who come from afar. Riding Madden MAONIUPING see snow-capped mountains, along the way to see the green pine and cypress, and spruce, fresh air, Shenzhen has not been, previously in Nanning, in Wuhan had no feelings. The first time riding in this life, can not help but some sixes and sevens. To see the risks Road, very worried Mashiqianti. Horse owner is very talkative, saying that the sea monkeys (Ma name) can understand people talking as long as you encounter a slippery road shouting "slippery", it will slow down, so I was constantly heard shouting "slippery! Slip! . " Hill walking in the quiet, listening to the horse owners to our caravan to sing songs, breathe the fresh air, watching the distant snow-capped mountains looming is really a pleasure. Familiar with the ups and downs on horseback after the unrest disappeared without a trace.
He visited the Naxi murals, see the hell, earth, heaven, thinking, we are now in heaven bar.
Was admitted to hospital at night and harmony, for the first time to see the kind Zhao uncle and aunt, for the first time to see the harmony like a Beijing courtyard homes, they deeply in love with here.

October 24, 2000 to Lugu Lake on the road is a kind of torture, but also a pleasure. In the mountains has kept coiled, up and down both sides of fame, various colors of leaves, high drop waterfall, many hawks and crows. After many villages and saw a lot of Yi dressed fellow, and women wore a predominant, colorful dress, the children are black, and some children to the family sheep, and some children carrying a basket of pine branches, we see them, and they are watching us, and we waved, they waved a friendly smile. Only later did I know that after several counties along the way is a poverty-stricken counties in Yunnan, where the mountain life is very hard. We see beautiful scenery, rolling mountains, for them is a barrier --- the traffic developed, all of the economic development but idle talk. Returned to Shenzhen, I often think of the children along the smiling faces, then one by one black, childlike little face. When we marvel at the scenery of a beautiful face, with high-end camera clicks to clicks to a stop according to the time that these children are not in the mood to enjoy scenery, and they are afraid that some of the mountains collecting firewood, and some in the ground to help adults . Life is hard, but also precisely because of this, those kids smile is so let me memories.
7 am start time of 5 pm, after 10 hours of bumps, the driver finally said, down the hill in front went to Lugu Lake has.
The evening sun, quietly shines in the mountains, the sky is really blue, cloud is the real white, people immediately think of "blue sky Baiyun Piao," singing. Yaokan Lugu Lake, as an Aaron Wan, lying on the embrace of the mountains, but also as a shy at son, gently raising the veil, secretly looking at the mountains outside world. Lugu Lake in the United States, gentle, quiet, mysterious, is a suffocating America. After tired day, your eyes will suddenly this unbeatable scenery, thinking, value! Value! Butt hurt and then also do not care.

Night live in Georgia the peninsula where the high-Allah washed at home. Rigby Peninsula is located in the hill from the big Luohe have more than 10 minutes drive is the lake of several villages in the Moso, a commercial air is not too heavy, primitive, natural flavor, Chun Park and morals simplicity, let us City people have brought up a strange excitement. Home grandma can understand our words, but could not say, only through the translation of her little daughter. Mosuo people are matrilineal society, the next day we saw the auspices of the uncle was at home, while the grandmother was at home the highest "leadership." Take a topic like marriage is not a good question that we had to pull some sesame garlic skin thing. Quite dark inside the house, cooking smoke confused everyone is extremely painful eyes, while the dinner is also a deep and Mosuo flavor, not used, can not say delicious, there is a different kind of feeling.
After supper, out of the house, surrounded by darkness. Inadvertently looked at the sky, but it feels a bit like a shock, body shiver with admiration that one picture, my life will never forget ---- sky everywhere crowded l'etoile! Atrium has been a shining from the middle of the Milky Way is divided into two halves, full of sparkling stars, big and small, from time to time there are meteor across the canopy, leaving the white shadow, as if all the stars seen in this life plus up and there is no more night tonight. Looked up, eyeful to see only the stars, only to feel a little empty, universe, heaven and earth was shrouded, than this; life a hundred years, but also like a meteor, "hoot" and click, flash over them.
Night in the wild, "indulgence" once, for the first time anywhere in the world # # #, surrounded by darkened kinda scary.

October 25, 2000 red high-Allah uncle home with us the morning of rafting Lugu Lake, to the Snake Island, Bird Island. Uncle was an inward, but not shy people, see who travel extensively know that there are many tall buildings in Shenzhen, and talked about the development of tourism resources and environmental protection a major was actually good choices. Uncle until now are both married, but lately it has prepared itself from one floor to Assia and children (not married a Mosuo people, said a good friend of both the man Jiao A column, the woman called Assia) took over to live with . Most young people in the village or take the marriage, but points out with a good friend of the woman to live together, or the same as the marriage of Han Chinese are no longer a rarity of the things. Speaking of the real extent of the Mosuo people than I imagined even deeper, especially television, the popularity of information greatly speeded up this process. One tourist money to the residents in the village installed IC phone, and everyone talked over the lamp, pig nest ship also used wooden planks and nails, "assembly" After all, society is progressing, Mosuo people are not giant pandas, so that people will always remain Mosuo original state to tourists, tourists watch a very selfish and absurd idea. Figured out this layer, but also for Mosuo people feel happy.
At noon to go to the house side lay a few apple trees secretly apple tastes especially sweet, "forbidden fruit is exceptionally sweet," Well. After eating the apple core and a few rotten apples holding back to pigs in the yard, watching the pigs eat apples Dakoutaikou of looting and feel special novelty.

Afternoon from inside Georgia to the Great Luohe (development of the first villages), in the fresh open lake, facing Sichuan. Gao Chong Allah give us the initiative along the way the wind sing Tibetan folk songs, clear sound of splitting the high-pitched. Mosuo people love to sing, both men and women everyone has a good voice, singing, "Qinghai-Tibet Plateau" and other songs belonging to its capability to difficult, is it sound elevation Gao Ren is also high? Beautiful song in the lake, upload Dangkai go, smokes billowing. At this moment, the only feeling that --- relaxed and happy.

October 26, 2000 back to Lijiang from Lugu Lake to see the new road is already in the inspection, 10-hour journey can be shortened to 4 hours in the future will be more visitors to the lake had. Imagine a quiet neighborhood in the future will also be numerous hand-held cell Peninsula, a small yellow tour guide led occupation of tourists from all over twitter called a non-stop spectacle, involuntary sigh.

October 27, 2000, 28, bought it yesterday and returned the tickets to Zhongdian, Tiger Leaping Gorge boarded the bus.
Court met several travel in a peaceful friend, talking about Tiger Leaping Gorge on foot, saying that this line a long time ago a lot of foreigners in the walk, why do not we try it? So there will be no immediate plans to change soon.
The Tiger Leaping Gorge with a great starting point, from Lijiang to big and bright with is a mountain, a wide range of plants, far and near the snow-capped mountains, rushing toward the clouds, not to the Tiger Leaping Gorge, has Jiaoren large live up to this line is called a.
Contributions to the Tiger Leaping Gorge at a crossing light rain on the next play. Look at the visitors register, densely filled with the names of countries devils, the Chinese minority, mostly in Beijing, Guangdong and Sichuan. Proud to sign their name, write "in Shenzhen."
Trekking Tiger Leaping Gorge, in this life will not forget this piece of experience. Here are the magnificent scenery of breathtaking photo: Canyon, snow-capped mountains, the Jinsha River; a comprehensive physically and mentally challenge themselves and the limits of climbing (two consecutive days,
Climbed up and down, physical big overdraft, almost self-flagellation); a person standing on a cliff edge, facing the other side of the rock cried out, "Tiger Leaping Gorge, I come!" And silly; a tired lie on the table, One bottle of 45 degrees corn liquor (4 yuan a bottle) swig of the liberated; the Maozhao Yu, buried under the tiger jumped the bottom of the way, inadvertently looked back and found a pleasant surprise Falls; the seven individuals constantly on the run , from cold and hunger after a day, around the table, "scramble" has just been served, the soil of eggs, "ugly" (just ate two eggs); a look at peer-photography, trap some rolling down a hill at the end of the shock (also well she captured the grass); a previous case of landslides the road to see the Rolling Stones on down the cliff when you are the timid hearts (thought, or detour bar); the hands and feet do not look down, like a fat dog to climb over 100 meters as fast landslides lot, the crowd loudly celebrating the joy of holding each other; a taste of a mountain for us to taste the honey, from the bottom of my heart exudes the sweet; a head heavy rain, mud pedal is bliss unanimously decided last paragraph of the more than 20 kilometers of the mountain regardless of cost of the chartered the "corrupt." Tiger Leaping Gorge, the next opportunity I will definitely will come back, come back foot once! ! (Then two people should be a bar.)

October 29

Zhongdian has heard the snow, to dispel the idea of the past. Lijiang also think that the next two days of continuous rain, the weather was cold. Today decided to trim one day in the morning at home surrounded by Zhao Shu Erkuai brazier grill, tastes great. Brazier reminds me of the small, a winter scene of a man surrounded by Kaohuo, very kind.
Zhao Shu children not in the side, an old married couple, the house also has a grandmother, as well as Dongdong. Zhao Shu is a Naxi, pre-retirement seems to be in the Deqin Cultural Affairs Bureau, sitting room, drinking warm tea, with Zhao Shu Dong Che Che is a good chat with the West to enjoy, whether it is travel information, local The folk custom, or international events, Olympic football, we can feel that the young Zhao Shu's mentality. Shu-ning XIN join us in pain, "Auntie" and Xiuzui together to share joys and sorrows of tourism, talk and laugh between the old forget their old, small forgot his own small. Auntie's food is first-rate, back to Shenzhen after all said that my fat is probably the aunt of the credit, and up to now I still remember Aunt rubbing his hands on the apron, smiling, said to me: "Xiao Zhang, vegetables enough? out of tourism, should eat a little yo!. " Dongdong is a butterfly Zhaoshu domesticated dogs, big "dog eyes", people are able to love at first sight the appearance, listening to friends talking about travel east "Love and Hate clear" story: Has there been a guest Yamada of Japan in a peaceful homes lived a few weeks, respectively, with the Dongdong when photographed, before anyone can either holding Dongdong camera, this time actually uncharacteristically, barking non-stop, that is different from the Japanese photograph, then left a patriot Dongdong of reputation.
Scurrying around in the ancient city in the afternoon, to fellow fellow artists in-store shopping, take a look at how wood handicrafts carved out in the end; to the User cafe sit and give someone else did a sketch model; to buy their own dual - shoes, 10 a few paying the money for a long time talking with the lady price; holding a roadside shop in three-month puppy refuses to let go, either to fly back to wait for them to not buy a Yang Yang.

October 30 wake up days have been clear up, and early in the morning the sun is a very good mood suddenly HIGH up.
Straight morning of Yulong Snow Mountain.
In fact, right where the number of visitors has been less interest in the Lijiang Yulong Snow Mountain every day can be Yaokan, its interest is also a little out up to now, I feel OK, Yunnan has also been drawing to a close, but God already made the United States, have time , on the snow-capped mountain then why not?

Following up on the feel worthwhile. Regardless of distance, snow-capped mountains are very close look at the sacred, and replace cable car, it felt as if to worship, especially the cable car through the clouds toward the clear blue skies at the time, there is a feeling of flying. Xiao Du thick snow to the mountains, I am very excited that Southerners, but also to catch up with a group of foreigners taking the initiative to go to war ---- our snowball fights, and the duty rushed to the front of the result is no winning or losing, but come to a mountain sickness --- chest tightness, shortness of breath (perhaps when you are preoccupied with war and then guffaw when you are too exaggerated, later saw the stone reads 4465 meters above sea level). When the clouds step on the foot of the Peak on the front, around the time when a vast expanse of whiteness, as if their is a mountain climber.
Suddenly a thought --- has deepened after a certain look for opportunities to go to Tibet to Everest base camp, riding still young, and physical fitness can Kangde Zhu, altitude sickness is not a strong time.

October 31 made a night sleeper car, early in the morning has been to Kunming.
Did not stay in Kunming, the second prize of the Stone Forest hotel accommodation and free travel do not have even the slightest interest in, to Shilin are too many people have been playing rotten bar.
The way back to Shenzhen, sitting in the plane, looking out the window of the clouds, and my heart feeling as much types of reluctantly, I have been to many places tourism, Beijing Shanghai Suzhou and Hangzhou, Huangshan Wudang Mountain Lushan scenery customs are also good, why at the time Without this lingering sense of it? But this trip to Yunnan, to Tiger Leaping Gorge nostalgia, the nostalgia of the Lugu Lake on the Yulong Snow Mountain of nostalgia, for peaceful homes Zhao Shu, and Aunt nostalgia, along with a sudden rise in my heart, was actually a sour feeling that this kinds of sense of deja vu, when I left home to Wuhan to study when graduating from the university in Wuhan, the train starting off when the students looked at a time when both the tears in their eyes, they had produced before, but in Yunnan, I'm just Ben Ben Bobo , spent a short period of days, why would it give rise to such feelings?

Good-bye, Yunnan, good-bye.

After returning from Yunnan, the old feeling of anything to say, some of the terms &, so only the production of this line of Yunnan, whether as a Journey Ye Hao, essays Ye Hao, when finished, "Good-bye, Yunnan, goodbye" , and my heart is a very relaxed feeling, as if more and more concerned about the recent inner feeling.
