From Shenzhen to Yangshuo
After much consideration, we have two 5 the third day of National Day Golden Week (3) afternoon embarked on a journey to Yangshuo. In Sam bought two boxes of water and some snacks, hides on the line down from the 20 a few pages under the holy canon, the three half-past of our car a Guangzhou-Shenzhen.
The Zhaoqing about six o'clock, in order to go for some high-speed, inadvertently turned into the Zhaoqing city, our people and rolling in the bustling traffic flow in the walk through, until getting dark, and only on the 321 national highway. The reason to take this path, did not take the four, first, because they do not want to rush night Huaiji Road, plans to open at night to seal my colleagues at home one night, and second, because online there is that side of the Spring Festival, when some farmers to the road Huaiji splash diesel fuel, special and other vehicles turned profitable. How the way we want over there not as good go national highway.
321 State Road, road conditions good, most of them are bi-directional four-lane. A long dark road, but always felt, especially in Deqing period, he drove for a long time have not yet out of Deqing, to open when the closure is almost faster half-past eight. Then contact closure to open my colleagues, before we know his family here from closed to open toll station it is also seventy to eighty miles, but also when the Po onto a path through which. Look at the map, anyway, not far from the Wuzhou, Wuzhou decided it to go live, just a pity that our colleagues of that well-prepared duck mushroom soup pot.
One into the Wuzhou Hotel Wuzhou to see the high ground flashing in neon, inside a 290 yuan a question, although seriously exceeded, but came to watch endless room, quickly grabbed two rooms. Settled to eat dinner on the hotel side of the food stalls, what is called Guangdong, there are Pupae sell, 20 12 (not come cheap), but really delicious, I have never liked people who eat, fried in 22 is not enough, and there should be a 22. There seep spring of pure health, it is refreshing, taste good. (And indeed in later days in Yangshuo, every day with it as partners, before leaving they brought two boxes back to Shenzhen.)
Back to the hotel called the Inn Yangshuo link, did not expect is not no room, is the Lion's Mouth, a small room Inn must be 380. Simply does not booked it, we would look at bar. (Too wise a)
The next day (4) early in the morning, first Qubai the dragon Mother Temple of the Huangdao 10:30 leisurely start, take the 207 national highway to Hezhou, easy to reach Hezhou 12:30. From Hezhou to Yangshuo are more than 200 kilometers, and we ate lunch in the Hezhou, 1:30 departure. The way we decided to go straight to xingping, called Aunt disk set the house. 323 State Road, take the time to turn right at the second pond, which is to xingping of the road by now. Go to Yangshuo could walk on this path, do not go around to the Lipu. Vietnam to Xingping, the more scenic beauty and varied types of hills rushing toward the roadside is golden yellow paddy fields, she began to see, arrived at 4:30 xingping. Thanks to online friends, a reminder, from a welfare orientation to xingping time, signs are visible, fork in the road is very small, we have paid special attention to not only wrong. The xingping paths there is a no fix, potholed, and a good feel bad that our horse ah.
To the Hindu Town of, vehicles parked in the backyard apartment post office car parks, parking charges 20 yuan a night (normal is 10 million). Ho Pui Tsuen, we are across the river to find her aunt User Recommended dish. Plate did not expect her aunt to go ashore to go very far.
Auntie's house at night sitting in a small dish hospital where children enjoy the delicious chicken soup and the Lijiang River Soil unparalleled fish, farm vegetables, with the hospitality of the Romanian uncle a chat. Kids with tits stood fireworks and adults in the gourd rack under the chair on the Shenzhuolanyao, the air was filled with the fresh smell of earth. A very comfortable feeling. Everyone loves her aunt on the plate one-third of the acres to children, knowing you can buy a 20000 acre, and wait for them to immediately buy land from large Zhaizi, but also taste the local flavor of the Lord.
Disk aunt helped us tomorrow river boat tour, all the people who live in her house to sit a ship. However, in order to avoid Shui police checks, followed by five o'clock on the board. Early dispersed everyone slept. Because a large room out, and we four adults and a child squeezed into a room of the "big bed", the point is to put it nicely tatami (wood), in fact, with the pit in northern rural areas, a similar slide. For a long time without this kind of "collective life", and really am not quite used to.
Aunt who lives in the dish and eat 190 yuan.
No. 5 early in the morning before 4:30, not yet dawn, with no cock crow it, plate aunt called us to get up ready to board the. No lights, no stars, no moon, surrounded by darkness, reaching not see five fingers. Luo uncle took us more than a dozen individuals, one foot deep to the shallow one foot to the river walk across the field, crossed the threshold, through the corn, we like the guerrilla forces deep behind enemy lines (also like illegal immigration) stumbled away more than 20 minutes, small unit was infiltrated into the river bank. Boat line the river, surrounded by mountains Yingyingchuochao was great darkness enveloped, such as ghosts, only the roar of the motor monotonously ringing, cold wind, we bind tightly clothes to sleep. So go for half an hour, until 9 horse drawn Hill, no bright days. Boatman off the motor, let us stop for waiting. 6:10, finally able to see the opposite side of the mountain, and hastily looked at this famous scenic spots, no one to see it herself, but the green mountains on the distribution of the mottled with varying shades of yellow, a bit like a horse look.
But be fair, the mountains and rivers are full of Lijiang River scenery. Clear river bottom, plants swaying in the water hygiene pose, there's no boat across the surface of the water wave as flat as a mirror, beautiful peaks in the reflection in the water, coupled with Zizi fresh cool morning air, is indeed refreshing. Just too short, and wonderful has just begun, we have to the Yang Di had. A little disappointed. (Come back to see pictures of the nine horse, are dark and 1).
To the Yang Di, two-pronged, two drivers with the ship back to driving a car, we take minibus directly to Yangshuo. China and Pakistan is very clean, 8 yuan / person. Less than 8:00 drive, 9:00 to Yangshuo. Finish on West Street next to the bus station.
Next, is in West Street happy life.
Morning sun oblique stone on the road in the West, both sides are all kinds of coffee, a small pub. Because the Internet has long been familiar with their daimyo, and each felt very kind. People eating a leisurely breakfast, a plate, without exception, is the omelette, ham, a few slices of bread. Not progressed very far, they found a "no" signs. Into the point of a line has been recommended numerous times, "no special breakfast." Not many people inside, but not a complex breakfast is sent up the unresponsive. Two of the absolute volume is not enough to eat (or do we both had a good appetite. Hehe) were also added to a tuna fish sandwich, a total of 35.
Vehicles, etc. to take back two of the men, the next step to look for accommodation. Is already No. 5, and the house was not nervous. Every family there is room in front of all hanging signs. 100 West Street is still bullish asking price 300 yuan / rooms. Also read a few, the final choice of the soundtrack at the end of a natural home. Conditions in general, but more quiet, away from the West is so close. 120 yuan / rooms, it is estimated in peacetime 60 is enough. With the holidays over, house prices fell the way down, we finally moved to dawn hotel, antique, there is a courtyard, looking liked it comes to 120 yuan / rooms, fantastic, and really value for money.
Two days in Yangshuo, happy as an immortal. During the day biking, hiking, rafting, see mountains, fields and farms and close contact with nature. The beautiful scenery are depicted literati culmination, not more to say. Favorite paradise inside a beautiful natural Yangshuo Autumn, it is a place where another man sigh, only to 50 yuan tickets, a little expensive.
Turn enough, playing tired, just soak the West, listening to foreigners how to speak Mandarin Chinese, speak English. Where would like to find a seat to sit down, one by one to a good description of those 11 sweeps. Most of the time, one night changed five places. Rather Chengsi not safe. Through practice, there are experiences to tell online friends:
The most famous Pijiu Yu, taste Ma Ma, but added the most popular fried river snail, especially the primitive, not only well roast chicken, fried river snail is also the best on the Lijiang River Sumio and father. Snail stuffed, that is, Riga snail meat in general. Ate a number of Guilin rice noodle, feeling less like Shenzhen to eat well. (The original authentic Guilin rice noodle is dry, without soup, and eating only soup powder. Tried it, there is no soup is too dry, simply with a powder or decoction eating comfortable)
Particularly interesting to note is that two brothers were happy to French French restaurant. High hopes and left disappointed that unhappiness with the response. Two brothers are in, not seen more warm and friendly, and vegetables Our films are very poor. This is what we in the West the most formal of a lunch, but also a bottle of red wine, the menu on the main course of chicken, duck, pork chop the whole point of the one times, the results are all up the hard extremely odd, lunch turned into the see-saw match. A more serious omission is the waiter, we asked her if she came, what? She said: do not know. Your point, how do I know? This French restaurant, is actually Chinese chef, pictures and reputation, wasted our 400 Da-Yuan.
The best panoramic view of the bar is not Yangshuo West Street hand-painted map of the Li Ping, speaking on the coffee, but its opposite, under the moon. Whether it is a fascinating day and night, where. Sitting on the second floor balcony during the day and the sun, warm leisurely evening sun the moon and see the luxury to West Street. French Chile Dun depressed that day, after dinner, walked into the cafe, to sit through the evening, to see the moon from the opposite side of the Green Lotus Peak, on a little rise up, mood became better. Think that this coffee shop's name to obtain really appropriate. (The location of the second floor little empty, there must be patience, etc.)
Red Star Pizza is also good, do better than the colt sky.
Also, can not forget that the bustling crowd, from time to time came the melodious whistle. This seems to be given to this mountain, water, and the excitement coupled with the just right of the background music.
8 morning, we embarked on a return. We left the parking lot of a car, and enthusiastic to look at cars and we waved goodbye and then lock the door from work.
This wonderful journey that has ended, full speed rushed to Wuzhou for lunch but found a good place to eat, to recommend to others. In the Dragon Mother Temple of the street leading to Hezhou, there is a called a product Xuan He Xian restaurant. Next to the river, take the wood shed. Because the door stopped a lot of local cars, we decided to go to the house to eat. Sure enough, a trial did not let us down. Shrimp sweet and delicious, full weight; steamed fish importers will turn, fresh incomparable; in particular, dried tangerine peel ribs, golden yellow, outer Giori tender, too fragrant, and add vegetables, and pot of lotus root soup, beer, a total of 180. Hate only this place too far away from Shenzhen.
The casual relaxed trip to Yangshuo, we have thoroughly enjoyed themselves and go. Did not go to a lot of attractions, is left to the next. There is no stunning beauty of Yangshuo is a place where people feel warm and comfortable, and its rivers and mountains reveals a moderate. Have not yet returned to Shenzhen, we are always thinking about the next trip of the.
There are several caveats:
☆ festive holiday is best not to go, the cost will increase more than half.
☆ Yangshuo house a lot of reservations but expensive houses. Do not have to live in West Street, around the Emerald Road, Guihua Road is also a place to live, are not far from the West.
☆ Do not Heidengxiahuo the advent of Lijiang, a waste of resources.
☆ Yangshuo Guide to buy a hand-drawn map, above, there are coupons, with a very bargain.
