April 17, 2002 -5 and I dated 3 Fat start from Guangzhou, via Kunming, Dali, Lijiang, Zhongdian, Inagi, Kangding, Luding, Chengdu, Luzhou, Guiyang, Liuzhou, and back to Guangzhou, is a one lasted 18 days of the Central Southwest tour.
At 9:58 on April 17 and the fat guy sit in Guangzhou - Kunming Train 1165.
At 15:31 on April 18 arrived in Kunming. Do not ride next to the station of private cars, high-speed direct train ride to the Terminal, 16:30 start heading Dali. 21:30 arrive in Dali, Dali hotel stay by Lake Zi introduced, 70 yuan for standard room.
The morning of April 19 tour of Dali. Dali City is not, but a particularly large number of people engaged in tourism, we have encountered a lot of solicitation on the streets. There is absolutely no need with the tour, there are direct buses Dali, Erhai Lake side got off to a carriage and drove the Bai lad, it would blow that he domesticated the three horses are in mid-race championship. Come to know here, Erhai edge charter to 300 yuan, the price was too high we decided to return, Bai coachman looked very unhappy, not to look like when that excitement, we rushed to get off near the Three Pagodas. Tickets for the original three-tower to be 30 yuan, but are not allowed to denta, we feel that boring, so take a picture in front of three towers.
Dali commercial flavor is very strong, roughly north and south towers can also look into the inside Street found there are vegetable market, and banks are a lot of people like Dali say Tian Long Ba Bu, if not Jin Yong, where its value is not much tourism . We went Cangshan at the foot of the ropeway ride motorized three-wheeled, foot of the mountain cableway employees have a lot of pullers votes, 30 yuan could rope back and forth. Cangshan originally grave mound mountain, mountainside There are hundreds of graves, no wonder the mountains feel so "cool." Up to the hilltop overlooking the ancient city-wide, there are some circuitous trails, also true.
A half-day swim Dali, Dali city back to the afternoon. Fight to the Erhai Lake Park board to write a "romantic" of the pavilion, overlooking Lake Erhai. We do not have a boat landing on the island, because the ship on the island is full of artificial scenery, Dali is a general.
14:30 High-speed direct train ride to Lijiang, Lijiang 17:30 arrive. Lijiang, sporadic light rain, we lived side Xinhua city hotel, 100 standard rooms and serving breakfast to the city from here also a few minutes. At night we went to eat dinner inside the ancient city, where business is thriving, not easy to find a table to sit down at the riverside. Fat guy to the local characteristics of the Baba and butter tea, I would like a snail, stir-fries and rice. What an entrance feel regret, was not the level of fried river snail, said that it was pulled out of the river, in fact, how could then clear the river fishing to be such a big snail. Rice is still cool, which also can not blame, if you look around, nobody to eat rice, no wonder, when I want rice attendant hesitated for a while. In the ancient city the price is not cheap to eat inside, the taste is not how kind, mainly the atmosphere was good. The two sides neatly placed on red lanterns at the foot of gurgling water, table, passers-by shuttle. Here a lot of mobile business, there is singing, and fortune-telling, and massage, and sell the atlas. In short, the scenery is worth the ancient city of Lijiang weather experience.
April 20 breakfast saw the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain far away and feel beautiful. Lijiang early morning air is particularly clean, as if in front of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and quickly take a picture in the balcony. After breakfast, go to the Red Sun Square by bus, this train bound for Yunshan Ping Ropeway. Cars and motorcycles to stop at toll booths, each visitor received 40 yuan forest maintenance costs, the locals are not. Yulong Snow Mountain cableway this train through toll booths, we have decided to travel a longer distance Yunshan Ping.
After more than an hour's drive, and finally reach the Yunshan Ping Ropeway. Here have gathered more than 100 tourists, had to take a cableway up the mountain, at least, have to wait more than an hour. Asked local people, rope climbing only 200 meters, we decided to climb to go. Climbing a mountain road that is running rope line, one paragraph in particular insurance, landing on the slide down, the visitors sit ropeway to see us continue to give us encouragement. After a 50-minute stop-go and climb and finally reach the summit Yunshan Ping. Yunshan Ping is a combination of cedar and grassland scenery, turn a circle on the play. We backtrack down the mountain, only spent 15 minutes on the back foot of the mountain. Then take bus to the Yulong Snow Mountain.
Reach the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain cableway ticket office is noon bus ride to the cableway, and so not many tourists cableway. Really changeable weather on the mountain, waiting under a hail Shi Huan, the sun was shining on the mountain. As the rope climb big drop, feeling a little headache, the most tragic is not wearing sunglasses, the sun shot down, eyes could not open. Possible over the next few days ago, rain, snow on snow-capped mountains kinda thick, he saw a few topless men exposed belly show off the camera, really amused. At this time I clearly felt unwell, hastened Fat ropeway ride down the mountain. The Tour Yulong Snow Mountain is not ready, in front of tour Yunshan Ping consume too much dietary supplements have not been too much on the Yulong Snow Mountain, where the future Shanghai overstating must be force to bring clever.
Back to Lijiang is more than 15:00, to visit the ancient city of wood House. Only 6 yuan, a taxi driver to carry you to the Wood House door, because he has a rebate. Visit Wooden House, Lijiang both a taste of the typical architectural style, but also the panoramic view overlooking the Lijiang, or a good place for photography.
Wood House we went to swim the black Longtan Park, to listen to Naxi ancient music can come here, we are not interested in ancient music, why not stroll back to the ancient city. Visited the Square Street, 71 Street, 51 Street and other streets in the evening to eat buffet in the ancient city. As time is limited, we only played a day in Lijiang, feeling the whole journey of the most fun place, but also have the opportunity to come back.
April 21 early morning bus ride to the town of Tiger Leaping Gorge, shuttle has always been open to the tiger jump, which is where most visitors go. Bridge through the town, accompanied by several foreign tourists out of the car, it seems they want to walk across the Tiger Leaping Gorge. Arrived around 11 o'clock on the tiger jump, went down the steps to see that piece of iconic stone, saying that Tiger skipped, but also can feel that the momentum of the whole, there is no less spectacular Hukou Waterfall is no wonder that locals said the tiger jump is the most fun. You can swim for an hour on the tiger jumped, and then rent a jeep back to bridge the town had wanted to be hailed as soon as possible to Zhongdian To her surprise, waited more than an hour only car, the car went over a minute to stop and eat, really put us mad. Bridge to a small town, Zhongdian is the hardest way to go, but also dangerous, to reach more small-Zhongdian Road, on the flat, and began to beautiful scenery. Towards the evening we finally arrived in Zhongdian, we hurry to find a place to live, telecommunications, hotel, 100 standard rooms. Zhongdian is just a small town, big streets of the two, there is often went to a local small food street, good clean tourists do not go. Zhongdian's more than 2800 meters above sea level, there will be a headache the morning woke up feeling.
April 22 mission with the local FIT Tours Zhongdian classic attractions, price 200 yuan a person. Morning and went to the Pana Hai, this time to a grassland, the grass has not completely long together, it was not very green. 30 yuan horseback visiting the prairie, I chose a small piece Maji, carried away by the local herdsmen to the prairie center, according to photography, YO-YO MA, then go back. Then a bus to ldan Songzanlinsi, which do not sit lamasery, in addition to chanting hall, other places to visit can not, because to meet the reincarnation of living Buddhas, repair, but we can see monks dancing, perhaps some sort of ceremony. Afternoons Bita Lake, Zhongdian, which is the most fun place, along the paved path from the tree to go down, there is a sense of access to forests. Out of this piece of forest, grasslands and lakes you can see, we can not wait to burst into the grasslands, which fooled the next, and grassland not only mud, and most horse feces, the original prairie was not imagined so fun. Bita Lake is the hottest business lakeside barbecue stores, most of the tourists are spending here. From the prairie all the way back to car park uphill, physical bad choice of tourists riding, and we walk the back, really hard climbing the plateau, I felt a very severe heart. This day is to play the most boring tour guides with a high price to buy native products, but also often to sell her home, Cordyceps. Afternoon we return to Zhongdian, the urban area, originally planned to rent a jeep tour to Inagi, 1,200 yuan nobody to go, but go to the bus station to buy tickets the next day, each only 96. Zhongdian to Daocheng shuttle the next day, then this trip, we had more than a day stranded in Zhongdian.
April 23 tour baishuitai choice. 280 chartered back and forth. Baishuitai way to fix most of the fresh, very good to go, there are some being built, the good news is that we have rented mini-car, easy to pass. In fact, a direct road access to baishuitai Tiger Leaping Gorge, You baishuitai many of which are driving a bus of tourists, first tour baishuitai, Zaiqu Zhongdian. Self-help travel temporarily unable to choose this route, because there is no shuttle bus through the. Baishuitai scenery much like Huanglong, mainly by snowmelt erosion is made clear above, there are many pools, the water is too please, believe it or feet sink traps, the playing time after the busy drying shoes. In this meal at noon, where Zhuoyibandeng crafted entirely by cutting down trees, including centuries-age table is really a pity. After lunch, Zuo Juhui Zhongdian, very comfortable swim today, mainly recharge your batteries for a few days to prepare for the arduous journey.
At 6:00 on April 24 more minutes to get up, ride the shuttle bus to the Inagi 7:00. This train packed with people, luggage space was packed into a few foreign tourists had to holding luggage. All the way to go Inagi dirt road, the Tibetan driver to drive too fast, turning in the cliffs will not close oil, because traffic on this road carefully, 12:00 can not go anywhere Inagi. 10:30 am reaching the valley, the driver where to eat lunch, refueling water, and over here we must climb several mountains straight into the realm of Sichuan. Next trip is painful and startling sight, people not only rolled up in a small space, but also witnessed countless people Xinchan the sharp turn. I do not know how much the mountains down through the afternoon hours to reach towns and the border. In the towns and checkpoints undergo drug testing, in addition to foreigners, the other passengers get off squatting side of the hand baggage for inspection, which is perhaps the national treatment bar. We are fairly well treated, but checked luggage, others still searched. One of them, much like his fellow, even the trousers also off, and check the almost one hour, only to be found a counterfeit. After a checkpoint, and soon reach the towns and the county seat, when both of us and a Sichuanese addition, all passengers were out of the car, the original to the Inagi only three. Drivers are beginning to look tired, take the initiative to invite Fat chat, he said that this line ran very hard, smokes two packs of cigarettes a day at least, encountered snow days even snow forward, half-way on the cars, many of money, the first few Also take a few days beggar. Really did not take long to work in the sumdo encountered two, and no money to travel, begging drivers to take them to Inagi, drivers Weiren good, so that they got on. The car arrived in Inagi is 19:30, from the car to see at the road, there is no beautiful scenery. Out of the car we immediately contact to find accommodation vehicles. 60 per live in Aden hotels, Fortunately, hot bath before 20:30. After dinner, the vehicle owner to help us, 1,000 yuan all-inclusive round-trip. We went to bed early to rest in preparation for future work towards Aden. Who would have thought first entered Rumeng Xiang, he was awakened by hasty knock at the door, the original cops on their clients, to see that we are overseas visitors, not any culprits, immediately backing a smile, really irritating.
April 25 early morning jeep ride to the Gulf of Aden. Inagi The Jeep is basically Zhongdian eliminated second-hand car, we ride retro special break, the driver also was cautiously opened, together with Inagi to the Gulf of Aden are roads, so moving very slow. In the dirt road driving, passengers to endure the worst suffering of dust, dust from the broken can always be crevices drilling, the entire car a long time covered with dust, suffocating. Noon arrival at the Geneva, where elevation of 2900 meters, better medical facilities from the Gulf of Aden close, many suffer from mountain sickness in tourists come here to rest. Eaten lunch, we continue bumpy journey, not far away to buy tickets to enter the nature reserve of Aden, each 125. After nearly four hours and then tortured, and finally to the Daya Ding. Daocheng to Aden from the distance is 100 kilometers, and had to spend eight hours by car.
Many huts have been built in Aden, do not sleep in tents, so we choose the foot presence, without luggage up the mountain. See also plenty of time and decided to climb Chonggu Si. Our camp is located about 3700 meters, 3880 meters above sea level Chonggu Si, the road takes about an hour to reach the plateau Chonggu Si can see the typical scenery, snow-capped mountains, rivers, natural fir and grasslands. Let us move up the ladder, ready to go Xiannai Ri, this is a natural dirt road, steep slope, each taking 10 steps necessary to stop breathing, half-hour or so to reach Xiannai Ri, where you can see the snow-capped mountains at close range, as well as a dwarf trees. Through the dwarf woods, climbed a small hill, looking to the distance, how could not find pearl harbor. Can only see a dry river bed, thinking that this is the pearl sea. At this time the sky was dark, strong winds, decided to turn back the camp. Back to the camp knew the sea pearls in our side of the hill, and we have been taking a positive, I really loudly regrets.
Camp 4 at the same time more tourists, driving Chengdu travel guide, visitors hear his name in one of Beijing, and the other two are newlyweds in Wenzhou. Living in camps a lot better than I imagined, was ample blankets and quite clean, and can eat meals Han. After dinner, everyone sat together Kaohuo, chatting, and all feel really very difficult to Inagi play. I was the first time in more than 3700 meters above sea level where overnight accommodation, but also sleep on board, heard the wind kick into gear, so no sleep all night.
At 6:00 on April 26 to get up, do not wash your face, drank a point of hot water, eat dry food on the mountain. We walk is still walked the streets yesterday, but feeling much more difficult. Cold, frozen Bishui straight dirty, ear pain, the wind made along the way can not see other people in the mountains Jingde only hear our breathing. More than an hour to reach Chonggu Si, there is no rest, straight Luorongniuchang, from Chong Gusi to Luorongniuchang this section of the slope is not large, but around here seem to go very long, can be seen along the way into the film into a film fir Lin, raise your head and eyes to see the Tibetan holy mountains, 9 o'clock finally arrived Luorongniuchang. Here you can clearly see the three snow-capped mountains, there is a snow-capped mountains surrounded by grassland. Luorongniuchang Beyond it lie the sea-colored sea and milk, all at above 5,000 meters above sea level. We have chosen to travel yesterday, passing the pearl sea, it is no longer going up on the spot to return. Here we met a group of Guangdong tourists, they are living in Luorongniuchang this morning down the mountain, hired horses and porters, more relaxed than we. We are a little better than the locals physical difference, and soon beyond the group of Colts, went straight to the sea pearls, pearl harbor is a lake formed after the snow melted, small in size, but the water is very clear. Pearl harbor swim Aden means that we end the trip back to the camp is already 12:30, we are walking at an altitude of 3,800 meters above the 6 hours or less physical exertion.
Personally, I feel Overnight Stay two nights in Aden is simply painful. Good physical visitors can tour the light of this process, Daya Ding immediately after the first day to the mountains, can hire back baggage porters arrive Chonggu Si camp, the camp has been completed now Chonggu Si Muban Fang, arrange accommodation Chonggu Si after the tour, Xian Nairi and pearl harbor. Early the next morning to go Luorongniuchang, colored sea and the sea of milk in the afternoon Zuoju Hui Inagi. In fact, not too bad of Aden with the Zhongdian, only more primitive style, there is speculation than reality feeling.
To get up this morning, Beijing Li was mountain sickness, whole body fatigue, pale, travel arrangements for two nights stay in Aden, tour guides want us to take the opportunity to take the Old Lee's trip to Japan for medical treatment-watt, and we readily accepted. 13:00 drive back from the Gulf of Aden Inagi, Old Lee sat next to me, all looked very painful, and so on arrival at the Geneva car until after the face turn for the better. We continued on our way settled Lao Li, peers have a few more jeeps, passenger car, a lot of experience, all wearing masks to prevent inhalation of excessive dust. Our driver drove really slowly, and others Yijijuechen, we had a vacuum behind. Gradually we have been outstripped, and the setting sun left us under a car slowly forward, it seems enough time to go back to a hot shower tonight. Are lamenting a time when the car suddenly stopped, and had run out of gasoline, and we stopped at a deserted place. At this time dusk had fallen, it was Cecil faint chill, just as we anxiety, the distance sailed an empty jeep, the driver allowed us to ride back to the Tibetan Daocheng. Get on the car, feeling completely different, good performance car, the driver again opened to fast enough, we are very sorry, knew to spend more money in rent a car good point. Back to Daocheng already at 9 am, and after dinner go to bed, but also encountered the police to catch clients rounds. I am very puzzled that this local man has dark skin, rough, find a nice point is immune, so how clients.
April 27 seat bus to Kangding. Means Haizi Shan Scenic Area, see the summit there are a lot of huge stones, which is ancient glacial relics. I believe if it is not crustal movement, man-made is no more than 4,000 meters above sea level may be onto the top of the hill. Noon to reach the plateau city of Litang, personal sense of Litang Daocheng landscape better than bad, there are vast grasslands, days looked very blue, and white clouds low, most regret is no time to go to Litang lamasery, from a distance it has both a size, have momentum. From the beginning Litang Road vehicles, entered the country, this is a very thrilling national highway winding mountain road. The most thrilling scene occurred in the uphill on the way, the car stalled and the driver in reversing the engine the name of the slope. Not long after the car stopped again, the original no fuel, and we are experiencing the same problem for two consecutive days, Fortunately, the same team behind the bus, and hastened to draw a few liters of petrol would use the. The car has traveled over 12 hours, from dawn into the moonlight, the moon on the plateau Youyuan You really big, bright, like a searchlight, the radius of a few years all to shape. Are also countless numbers of high-altitude climb mountains, close to 21 o'clock we finally arrived in Kangding. The three-day eolian dust can be cleaned, tired body can finally relax.
April 28 we did not have time thin feel of the city of Kangding, we should immediately rush to Luding. To the station was aware that the road the relationship between the eastbound after 7 o'clock in the morning will be prohibited through. While we anxiously when a pickup was driven to us. This is a two passenger franchised business, and we did not hesitate to have got on, the price of 20 yuan per person to reach Luding. We live in the municipal government guest house here, close from the Luding Bridge, swim Luding Bridge we chartered the price of 250 yuan to Hailuogou Forest Park. Because the relationship between the closed road, the driver path to carry us away, the way to the river had been washed the bridge collapsed in the local people's help, even with a push to open the car finally get past. Taxis have to carry us to reach Hailuogou sightseeing ropeway ropeway was closed for repairs in the pre-holiday had to walk up the hill. Since the two Zhongdian are watching the same scenery over, it was Hailuogou very general. Climb halfway up the mountain to see the unique ancient glacial Hailuogou ruins of a large gray area of erosion zone, walking you can hear the voice of ice water flowing. To the ancient glaciers to reach the rope through the viewing platform, but the risk of being trapped Bingku Long, we decided to stop doing so. Back to the car park down near the 18 o'clock, you can catch up with the release time, then follow the road back to Luding. Bought the bus stop last trip to Chengdu High-quick ticket out the next day 7:00 at night you can sleep properly.
At 7:00 on April 29 traveled to Chengdu, channels Erlang mountain tunnel, arrived in Chengdu about 13:00. To take the shuttle bus to go Qijubeizhan Luzhou, more than two hours later arrived in Luzhou. To the Bamboo Sea of Yibin Luzhou is to swim at the same time facilitate the south Guizhou. Here there are many street at night snack, taste good, prices cheap, and worth a try.
April 30 we made the wrong choice, that is, luggage tour Bamboo Sea of Yibin. From the Bamboo Sea of Yibin Luzhou tour from the east gate into the east gate of the passengers Aberdeen is very evil, and specifically bullying outsiders, saying that a good 1 yuan pulled the gate, simply wanted to increase parking in the middle. We do not give money, abandoned the vehicle and walk over 20 kilometers radius of the original Bamboo Sea of Yibin, scenic spots are scattered, we must ride fun. Shuttle back and forth within the scenic motorcycle is the cheapest means of transport. We are carrying baggage or climb the stairs, sitting raft that he felt silly. Bamboo Sea of Yibin is to see bamboo, nothing special, swim a few classic spots after the bus ride to the Yibin Simon. By Yibin did not know where cars go to Guiyang, and had to re-Zuoju Hui in Luzhou.
In fact, a first-tour Bamboo Sea of Yibin Ying Yibin, where every 15 minutes a car to Zhuhai County. From the west gate of the Tour Zhuhai close distance, more focused sites, the main craft shops and restaurants are concentrated in this area.
May 1 by long-distance sleeper bus to Guiyang. Zhe Liang is a Chinese-made cars, slow on the highway was opened to the fifty or sixty kilometers, stay up at night to arrive in Guiyang. To the railway station in Guangzhou buy berth, 2 to 6 tickets all sold out, and had to change plans to take long-distance sleeper cars Liuzhou to Guangzhou.
May 2 morning swim Qianling Park in Guiyang, the entire park full of people. To eat buffet at noon in the urban areas, travel agents, open to three buses, jumping to nearly a hundred people, the restaurant suddenly crowded together, we are busy looting of food, not to eat anything too refined. After lunch, take the limousine bus to Liuzhou, Liuzhou Road, Guiyang to a good go, more than seven hours after the arrival of Liuzhou, Liuzhou overnight.
The morning of May 3 fish Peak Park, more than 1 hours tour finished, had a stroll in the Liuzhou area, the whole afternoon is very boring, at night luxury bus ride back to Guangzhou. Zhe Liang import sleeper cars, the car laid out the red carpet, the car should take off your shoes. Tickets per 180.
May 4 morning 7:30 back in Guangzhou.
Even finishing the film this trip cost a total of 4,500 yuan, from Zhongdian, spent less than 2,000 yuan, and the remaining itinerary did not play a few spots to spend hand, large, especially Inagi staggering. Yunnan's tourism hardware feels good car lane is fast, affordable, Lijiang is a good place, it is worth re-visit. Inagi may be praised a lot and no unexpected surprises, a feeling that is hard, and so the best way to play repaired Zai Qu. The relationship between tourism because of the time only way to Guiyang, Guizhou, failed to appreciate the scenery, a little regret, but 18 days be able to swim a lap, Central Southwest, it is worth it.
