From Yangshuo, has been back for three days, but it seems that my heart would still among the picturesque pastoral landscape. If we say that before going for this unfamiliar place, I have a little disturbed, now, I can tell you, go to Yangshuo to enjoy a leisurely holiday, is such a simple:
Sunny Saturday, August 30
15:30, we boarded an Air China plane arrived in Guilin Liangjiang airport. An airport shuttle at the airport and the urban areas there is air CMB, the fare is 20 yuan / person. We ask the driver paused in the South Railway Station , in the railway station square go to Yangshuo superior on the shuttle (10-15 minutes, 10 yuan / person). Guilin to Yangshuo little more than an hour later, we would first go to reach pre-set a good hotel placed her luggage, Then one easily came to West Street. The first dinner is the mantra of the day GF Red Star Express (RED STAR) where to eat, PIZZA really very good (24 yuan / 6 inch), Li River spring cold beer is very refreshing ( 7 yuan / bottle), coincides with the day my 31-year-old birthday, naturally drink Weixunfangcai go back.
August 31 Sunday sunny to cloudy with a previous appointment yesterday guides convergence (West Street, on a lot of 10 yuan / day, we asked the tour guide surnamed Dong, 13,307,736,680), and then go to car rental. User says Bond car I do not have found, Yangshuo is the largest Giant, rent 5 yuan / day; because there are tour guides secured, so car hire would not have paid the deposit. best to check the tires before departure, because once in the countryside, it is hard to find encouragement, or repair place.
Out of town, in order to avoid disturbing people's cars, we have a country lane near Po. Although some bumps along the way, but the stunning countryside people mind waves, visual mess. About walk through one and a half hours later, we arrived at the event Dragon Bridge, which is the starting point of Yulong River drift. Yulong River, also known as the small Lijiang, is from the White Sands (8 km north from Yangshuo) Tai banyan area, about 9 km of a tributary of the Lijiang River. Yulong River drift of the official price to 240 yuan / raft can take two, drift time is approximately 4-5 hours. But we went the day of the strike craft workers are only willing to drift Yulong Qiao Ji Ma this period (approximately full more than one-half), and insisted on 180 yuan / raft, and its own collection. Yulong Qiao Now that we have reached is already on the anvil fish, only reluctantly on the raft. suggest that you can later on in the West many tourism Reception drifting tickets bought in advance, they generally have a fixed point of the craft workers, not straight on what turn of events.
But the hearts of unhappiness will soon be the beauty of the smooth Yulong River. Qili handsome mountain sides the river, rolling, shape thousands, water of the Sea, green compelling, Yau Ching to make people feel that this world only GF under me and two people (of course, GF feeling is that only a person of her, TMD). but it is not immutable calm, drifting in the process will pass through a lot of low dam drops are generally 1-2 m the water for a long time and can be washed off from the dam is extremely stimulating. Unfortunately, my GF is a well-known Keshui worms, as long as the butt touches the seat, will be able to kick into gear to fall asleep, so naturally the raft on the rest up It is a luxury ah!!!
Although far from a two-hour rafting can not be beautiful, but we also could do nothing but abandoned raft boarding (bike is shipped together with the rafts down). Because of bad bike tour, we first returned to the Yangshuo County, rest of the month to hours, but also to continue to proceed to the Mountains of the Moon. Moon Mountain tickets is 9 yuan / person, local guides can not bring Mai Menpiao. If you find a good guide service, tickets can also be money to pay for the right to make tips in the guide. Mountains of the Moon is not high, only 230 meters, was the Peak can be seen on the stone walls, such as screens, which penetrates a hole, like the moon hangs high in the blue sky, hence the name Mountains of the Moon. from the hill overlooking the moon, you can see Yulong River in the mountains between the winding shuttle, is to be a Han Yu's poem: Jiang Qing Luo for belt, mountain for Jade Hairpin.
As usual, the evening is the West FB. West is not the best on the business, "Tintin", "no" these online quite admired the hotel is indeed cross Front Street West and county soil at a "primitive." It turned out he have the characteristics of a roast chicken dish, every night only to supply a total of three furnace 9, want to eat must be booked in advance (T: 13807830498). We do not have reservations, only the coveted's sake, bitterly location of Pi Jiuyu (35 million) gave up.
Monday, September 1 sunny to cloudy morning, whenever he woke up to go after the "no" to eat breakfast, 20 yuan a package of American or European enough to share two. Today's plan is a walking tour of the Lijiang River (Yang Di the xingping segment, is the essence of part of the Lijiang River), because GF extremely weak, so the final decision into a half-foot. starting with the CMB to the Yang Di ferry ride Yangshuo (8 yuan / person), about an hour's drive away. and then the local villagers ferry where the transition (3 yuan / person). after the transition had been walking along the Lijiang River, about an hour after arriving wave stone, pre-appointment of the raft of public (Edward King, T: 13878372302, people are very nice) had to wait for is there. bamboo valve downstream, the river open, water flows gently, two coast Qifeng rocks reflection in the water, mountains and rivers under heaven indeed well-deserved reputation. occasional passing cruise ship, the visitors to see our leisurely look, Most of envy. floated around two hours, we came to the "Nine Horse Painting Mountain" before the cold water village also serves as a break for lunch. the village is called a family farm landscapes Hotel (T: 13878376337, ZHAO Jin-hua), the taste of food in general However, excellent location, the rise is "nine horse painting mountains." eaten lunch, lazily lying bamboo chair, the breeze, Xu Xu, Jing Everywhere you are very seem to have meaning. break off a moment, raft the public asked we would like to Lijiang did not want to swim, I said of course, raft the public ferry took us to the other side into the water. soaked in the feeling of Lijiang is too good, and clear the river bottom, a distance of Castle Peak stretches, sun sets and life so, Fu Fu want anything else!
And then leave when the sun-setting, nine horses from Huangshan to the reflection of yellow cloth about 1 hour boat trip. And then move forward on the raft did not dare go public for fear of Marine Police and Customs. In the paid shipping fee (Wave Rock to nine Horse drawn Mountain 40 yuan / raft, 9 Ma Huang Shan to the reflection of yellow cloth 30 yuan / raft, the transitional costs 4 yuan / person), we refer to the direction of the public along the raft to the town Xingping embarked. Lijiang River xingping paragraphs Lijiang River, one of the most exciting section of the river, known as "mountain under heaven Guilin, Yangshuo be called a Guilin, Yangshuo scenery in the xingping do." Qifeng the two sides along the way along the river rocks, rapids pools everywhere like a natural drawing. Left after about an hour before dark we finally arrived at the xingping, riding on a shuttle bus back to Yangshuo (5.5 yuan / person, 30 minutes). Days gradually getting dark, and peak shape is also more and more illusion infinity, rather spectacle. GF King has no time to look at only taking hurried call set I remember, "primitive", roast chicken, say down today to uphold the conviction mainly from Na Zhi, roast chicken, they must be eat.
The evening meal is a natural FB, while drinking side and GF Appreciation of beauty between the past two days of fatigue and gradually dispersed. I suddenly realize why so many people are so nostalgic for Yangshuo, invigorating --- yes Because the lives of Yangshuo is a kind of ideal life: that the struggle - successfully - to enjoy - and then struggle again and again. Just think, if not hours of bicycle riding, you can not see the beautiful Yulong River, Moon Hill; No foot wading, you can not close to Lijiang River scenery; If there is no day journey of hard work, West of the night would not be so pleasant ...
September 2 Tuesday cloudy today, what is not specially arranged trip, sleep more than 9:00 to go after "Under the Moonlight" to eat breakfast. GF thick book to see the bar can not help but Ji Yang, is pleased to pick up a pen in the hope that Our feelings and then share. The last little time left to Yangshuo Park, Yangshuo County in years. Yangshuo has always been on the planet's largest natural water park, as the garden of Yangshuo Park, Yangshuo Park, Yangshuo essence can be called The condensed version. boarded the garden of the West Lang mountain, with the Green Lotus Peak across the entire Yangshuo is your eyes. in the mountains have been linger into the afternoon, followed by the "Tintin Hotel" Chile Dun "last lunch", we have this only reluctantly leave.
Farewell, West Street; do, and Yangshuo; we'll be back in the near future!
Tips:
Ticket Shanghai - Guilin Air 13:40 departure, 15:30 arrival. Although that only 7 fold when booking space, but it may require the booking company to help you apply for six pack (full price of 1,150 yuan), and does not require payment of application fee.
Guilin - Shanghai Shanghai Airlines 19:30 departure, 21:35 arrival. Generally only play seven fold. My good luck, until before leaving out the vote, actually wait until the 65 fold.
Hotels If you are a weekend, the first night of accommodation is best provided through Internet is good, because the room over the weekend Yangshuo relatively tight during times of free bargaining. The following are my field trips to some of Yangshuo hotel experience:
Hotel Chevalier: Chevalier pier side in a newly opened hotel, quasi-four-star, 200 yuan / night. Room facilities good, Riverview Room can directly see the Lijiang River. Drawback is a little far away from West Street (10 minutes walk), Comparison of noisy morning (near the port and roads). So I stay the night after moved.
Ai Yuan Hotel: In the West Street exit, the quasi-Samsung, 180 yuan / night. Naozhongqujing advantage, disadvantage is that the room is extremely small, a little depressed.
Hong Fu Hotel: a well-known hotel in West Central, operated by a pair of French brothers. Quasi-two-star, 120 yuan / night. The bathroom is very luxurious, but because of proximity to Green Lotus Peak Hotel, so the room is very humid and the mosquitoes are more .
Paramount to Resort: environmental class. Comrade Clinton has lived for more than 300 yuan / night, now undergoing renovation. Suitable for honeymoon couples.
Dawn Hotel: In the city streets, with a bridge across West Street, quasi-Samsung, courtyard-style hotel, 160 RMB / night. Worth a try.
