10th day: disappointment Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Spot
August 18: From the information learned in the ancient city of Lijiang was built in Song to the early Yuan Dynasty. City financial Han, Tibetan, Bai and other ethnic styles, the Naxi have a unique architectural style and cultural connotations. The ancient city from north to south, from the melting snow-capped mountains, from underground to infiltrate Yuquan Park gush of river water, from the ancient city of two holes at the entrance to the bridge --- Yulong Bridge ago, a divided three rivers, from east to west, were named to the East River, the River and Nishikawa, with the deep hinterland of the ancient city, the river and then divided into dozens of Cheonggyecheon, Chuanjie around the alley, households had homes, when you sing a low whisper, at times hidden. Lijiang Old Town is also a bridge is said to be extinguished, and there are 354.
Old Town of Lijiang with mostly Naxi, Bai Naxi girl's clothing and apparel is very similar, but different header, and more a shawl, called "daytime." Naxi people in the street I often see an old lady at the walk, was that we photographed a lot of photos, I also wonder whether the government sent to them once wages, so that they stroll the streets in order to active here, the national atmosphere, Inn the proprietress told us that these ladies are locals living in the city, nothing out of shopping, what muscles are also active ah, think about also.
6:30 get up, we fall in. to flee to the city to take photographs, when the ancient city of Hou is probably the most beautiful in the daily early morning to a dawn burst on the scene, whisk-ray micro-ming, the air fresh. The most inviting visitors at this time is still scarce, quiet random. At this moment in the ancient city of stone shed pretend road, bridges water next to the side that the solidification time, state of mind of the natural scenery and pleasant. Only this time the ancient city can truly appreciate the simple and elegant, and a sight to behold. What happened this time last year I lived like a night like Suzhou, Tongli, but did not see that as the same as in the river washing toilet inside the scene, with the inside is natural, and Lijiang, has become too commercial, housing There are clear signs after artificial carving, and even a small river flowing water, but also seemed a bit false.
Wang Kurau is simply climbing on tickets to 20 yuan a person, to see next to an Inn called Wang kulou tea Fanzhuang Inn, we will drill into it, there is a rooftop, climb stairs, you can see the whole complete picture of the ancient city, ancient city paved with blue gray tile roofs scattered high and low, in the distance against the background of Castle Peak and the misty, there is a kind of ancient styles. Later, A YAN lived in here for two nights (also 20 / beds), is said to feel good, but they are too high, not suitable to the city often fall in. When I first came to Taohuo people.
Done taking photographs back to the inn, end up with accounts, the back luggage, and went straight to Panda Inn. To lay down their baggage, in conjunction with yesterday's knowledge of two couples from Wenzhou come together Sheung to Yulong Snow Mountain. Incidentally, we also went to Fu Hui Road, Air Terminal and bought a ticket back to Guangzhou No. 21 (Lijiang, there are three ticketing point, where folding can play the lowest), playing a 7.5 fold after 1140, Lijiang fly to Guangzhou.
The way to the driver began to give us a shot, saying that year, he brought along a few guests can see the peak, but the best season is winter, when snow, and now that the rainy season, to see snow-capped mountains probability, almost zero.
However, how to not look to Lijiang Yulong? We still have to on the bent, not to mention A l said "It feels pretty good Well" (ruthless dead him!). In the scenic door, was immediately an opportunity to fleece a stab wound to actually be 80 tickets for the money a person! 40 is the ticket 40 is the ancient city construction fee. At the same time was told, wait a minute ropeway ride up the mountain, on the Maoniuping 65, on the big rope 120! I flew to faint, which is totally stealing money Well, into the area, do not take the rope did not come, as it is not the same? Since the ropeway to additional charges, tickets should not be closed so expensive, and most exasperating is that a city construction fees, with the airport construction fees, boring. Tourists who come to the ancient city of consumption, and boost the economy here, actually still have to pay a sum of money for this again, obviously the Government to bear the expenses, but also to the tourists who turn frame, Lijiang Government's approach is a completely Banded in行为.
Extremely bad mood呀. . . MAONIUPING waiting to get on the rope again ranked team more than two hours, that day can be regarded as rotten luck. Sat football car, going up when the fog surrounding the growing, almost can not see another aircraft after the 10-meter cable car and getting cold. 10 A few minutes later, finally came to end, we have been completely disappointed, because this situation to see us do not see any of the above scene, but do not know Any further rafts think about two hours before the team down. . . Although we would like to rely directly on the cable car down the mountain, but still the staff harangues in pulled down, alas. . . Had a look.
This weather really is not any hills to see what, 5 minutes later, we re-queue down the mountain, think about this today, to spend money wasted, and my heart regrets dead. When down to see the mountains, tourists rent Maji Mid-Levels, the trouser legs were horse manure stick a leg, cold and dirty appearance, is really sad for them.
If in this case also went to the big rope, then we must be fool. So I decided to return to Lijiang, the way back through baishuihe, we stopped to take photographs, if not been to Huanglong, maybe we will have a little excited, but to see this through the manual repair swab over the entire river was modest Tan Taiwan, and the Those poor legs all day long soak in the freezing water for guests to take pictures of the yak ride with and the surrounding chaos of tourists queuing photography, I am deeply disappointed with this place.
The only trip Interestingly, Wenzhou, the two girls to carry a small cloth with a pig, and she often Talia Laishua play out, and curse their foul sense of shame and the ugly, straight amused us laugh, Wenzhou, an extremely considerate boy , along the way to help girls, Wenzhou, take photographs, they do not have a shot, but did not say more than 10 full sentence, but always facing the Wenzhou girl smiled slightly. When taking pictures in the baishuihe careless Mefu pigs out into the river, so in the back when the boy took off Mefu Wenzhou, a small pig clothes, clutching his hand, put it out the vehicle go, let it " dry, "Mefu pig floated here and there in the wind, known as the" female Flying Pig ", for whom we take pictures to record it so" shameless "behavior.
In a shop in Chile Dun is very punctual in chicken hot pot, we have to listen to Naxi ancient music (live in any of the inn, the tavern can let people buy tickets on your behalf, do not charge handling fees). 50 money of the votes, is the most expensive, and would have only sat on the second floor, but we are all smart people there, Oh, so we moved a stool sat on both sides of the corridor, so that with sitting in the middle of the 80 block location of the money should be enough. Naxi ancient music is said to be performed by members of the average age of 70 years of age, and the death of an annual average of 1.4 persons, the elderly will be put before all the dead a photo in the Auditorium at the top, we see that there were already placed a few photos of the 20, light directed at the sorrow of this increasingly disappearing, this is worth looked and played. Moderator Xuan Ke is basically doing "personal monologues" performances, in addition to other host will be in English announcer to demonstrate their vast knowledge, his introduction to the movement of humor and self-touted auspices of style, has been welcomed by everyone, I also experience ancient music in the laughter, joy and harmony's will.
After listening to ancient music, went to the vicinity of Panda Inn International Youth Hostel Lugu Lake to go along with the bulletin board to find the Mix, see Zhang pieces of paper to write the "Tashi home" message of drivers, called in the past asked turned out he had to come here every day, take guest to Lugu Lake, 50 a person, directly to the Rigby Island, I think quite a reasonable price, but no longer need to bother about people, car rental, bargain, then an appointment with him Tomorrow morning 7:30 start time.
Back to the Inn has a comfortable hot water washing exercise, they discovered the water heater is very good, a large amount of water has enough heat. We live in the second floor is no need to worry about the sound of footsteps overhead, and decided to come back from the Lugu one night and then come here with the boss and decide the right, then stayed to sleep by. But the room sound too bad, you can clearly hear the sound of snoring next door to a foreign woman. . . . . Alas. . . . . .
Note: If you are going to Yulong, be sure to wear long-sleeved clothing and then with a thick coat, in the snow-capped mountain will be the lingua franca; must not wear sandals, tourism (sports shoes) as well
