Ningbo, the weather gradually heat up, miss the summer of Yunnan. That was in July, in the toil of my friends when I was wrapped in thick blankets on the plateau. From Lijiang began under the intermittent rain until we left. In Yunnan, I saw a variety of forms of water, water bridges Lijiang, Shangri-La mountains shrouded in fog, imposing the Jinsha River, rushing the Tiger Leaping Gorge, Germany, revealing the blue glacier ice forever, as well as the mysterious Meili Snow Mountain peak. The journey is like the completion of a water cycle.
the impact of water on the construction in Yunnan is obvious. On my way to see the Dali to Lijiang, there are many types dry bar-style houses. Such housing was to write down the concave, generally placed at the bottom of debris. People living on in order to avoid moisture. I have been Jingning, with there compared to bigger houses in Yunnan, the structure may have similar courtyard. A clear distinction of master and slave.
In the Lijiang ancient city, the water imagery infiltrated every corner of the city. Of water to make that into a city of stone carving has become soft. A complex maze-like waterways surrounding villages. Every house is like a nourished by water pebbles. Delicate rounded.
After entering Tibet, the architectural form has changed. Alpine peak appeared in the tent. From there, look down, you can see if condensation of the Jinsha River. Water in the mountains became a heavy steam group. As the altitude increases, getting closer and closer I have a feeling of the original ecology in Yunnan Province. Here, the design of the village is no longer considered beautiful. In order to avoid the rainy season, residents of his home in the mountainside. Began to tend to shape the rules, no longer beautiful.
Gedan Songtsan Temple. I have seen first lamasery. Very dry. Is like a box stacked blocks. Can be seen everywhere, square, square floors, party streamer, square house, square windows, it seems to reject the water soft. But by the cylinder rotation, especially for the worship of holy water, or you can see the flow of water and clean beliefs. The temple kitchen is a woman a taboo subject. They still preserved the ancient customs, that women will pollute the clean food. I could not help thinking of the phrase "a woman of water to do," they are resisting the temptation to do the water?
kitchen is very dark. The walls are made of black long-accumulated dirt. Master was quite old, but children have the same faces. In his look at me, I actually have a feeling of being touched. I feel I can trust him without reservation.
Many memories have been gloomy. Including the thrill of debris flow. The rain in Yunnan, along with fellow former line. Some things were a little peace has become clear. I still remember that night in Lijiang, living next door to one of our foreigners. Lijiang Youth Hostels are usually residential alterations, it retains some characteristics of residential areas. Eaves pick out very far, in the evening will be the formation of a shadow in the corridor. They are in the shade, I walked, I heard the woman who said, "I miss her very much". No tips, but her tone was the scene, as well as Yunnan, rain, so I think that statement is very touching.
Many people came to Yunnan, in order to avoid or find. Such flows have also shaped the Yunnan destroyed. Tea-Horse Road is no longer present in Yunnan, especially in Kunming, Dali, Lijiang area is a popular easy pleasures. Walking the ancient city, that the call to lay down their luggage exceptionally strong. 洋人街. This is perhaps the modern Yunnan Province can not fail to mention the office. They bar the ancient city of culture and the integration of the modern leisure with the nostalgic background.
他们. We follow their tips walked. They become our eyes. I was going to say is alien to local culture. The art of Dunhuang is the kind of exchange of the crystallization. Are Ashura brought Dianyuetielu me. But now is not as difficult for me to the exact expression, I think they are bringing into Yunnan Inn.
The trip's biggest regret is that lack of preparation before the trip. I know very little Shangri-La. But I think there is that I should take the time to understand the place. There, Yunnan rain and turned it into the snow and ice covering the peaks close to the sky.
