Travel on the road have visited so many of the Inn, the only way that the ancient city of Dali would not let me stranger. This is such a quiet city ah! No crowds, heard loud horn sound, imperceptible oppressively dense high-rise. Thousand years of history when the vehicle passes through this ancient city, in a city stopped downstairs, my intuition is to quickly get off deep breath, and then the entire people will be completely intoxicated with white walls and gray tiles of the houses in this group of building into a.
Turned in from the intoxicated, we found a small shop a street wearing a gray hat Tibet, bronzed face, the elderly ecstasy at me, probably think that I have just looked very ludicrous. I smile, he nodded at me, even know each other.
In a familiar city, into a narrow stone paved street, knocking on the door of a strange hotel. Hotel owners open the door of that moment, I would love there. Scared! Sure enough, every family home, running water, and every household gardening city.
Dali did not come until the洋人街heard that Dali did not expect in a place not far from the hotel, of course, was to visit as soon as possible. Put down the luggage hastily out, plunged into this known locally as "foreigner street" place to.
Really difficult to imagine that there is an inland town actually complete service for foreign tourists places. Man Road, beer, bar, coffee, cloth, and inn signs, and even internet service. Like the United States and Europe act together in the streets of the town to cut one and paste into the city center in general. Although spring makeup shop is an international style, but most of them are selling authentic Chinese goods, there are batik, a flat basket tray, baskets, there are butterfly specimens, there are marble vases, there are paintings, landscape pictures, and more Bai women lug baskets in the flower fabric . Variety of course, be described as dazzling, but the price is better than other Street shop a lot more expensive. This is not my foot expensive places to live, so a street wear very quickly finished and went back to those who go in a quiet alley.
I glib in white walked the streets of the wall, suddenly hoofs were too, looked back and was originally manned vehicles, double-row seat carriage, as well as possession of a gray hat goes on under the bronze face.
"Sit carriage ah? Visiting the Dali City, two of money." Rear carriage was also wearing blue sitting a commoner of the Lao Momo, see at a glance is a free-riding local Bai people, such as tourist coach is generally not received local money.
So I have sat in the first row glib.
"I will take you to Erhai Lake." Gan Ma old whip volley a pumping, slams the door, and the carriage on slowly forward.
Dealers near, they Chu Liaocheng door, horse cheerful shop in the gravel on the road trot, which makes the car we have followed a subversion of a jolt.
Gravel road lined on either side is green and lush paddy fields have been tiled to the edge of Erhai Lake, Dali ancient city gradually receded behind us, but the outline of the entire city Daoshi increasingly clear.
Dali, this is called in ancient times Nanzhao place, starting from the Tang Kaiyuan, after a six-Chao Meng Chao-care regime, Later Jin Duan Shi's Dali Dali, southwest China border has been the political, economic and cultural center. Three Pagodas of Dali is a prosperous country remains one of the era. But now the ancient city of Dali, it is when the Hongwu years of construction and retained. When it comes to what means the word to sum up the city, "romantic" This is the most appropriate choice, "said the closed flower, Shimonoseki wind, Cangshan snow, Erhai month" is the Dali left everyone here the most profound impression on him. Come a time when the rainy season in Yunnan, "Erhai month" scene of fear is invisible, but looking at the green paddy fields at the end of Napian clear blue clear blue lake, there are already enough people to reverie Lianpian.
With the clatter clatter of hoofs, a Bai village lake from us nearer.
"Your family is here?" I asked pointing to the Bai village Ganma old man.
"I'm not a local it is down from Tibet." He turned to me smiled, backing bronze face wrinkles.
"Oh? Tibetan another!"
"Yes ah, to Dali, the taking of Dali's wife has been in here, stay there a."
Speed gradually slowed down, turned his head to the elderly, looking at the distant mountains, no longer speak, it seems immersed into the past of the years gone. I could feel his breath voice, with it a little sigh, a little bit of sadness. People home ah, what the reasons so that you can not come back home, mid-drift in this romantic home.
"It's really nice horse." I had to change the topic. "This horse ran no, I only then she brought the car pull out of it."
"You have a lot of horses?"
"My eldest daughter, second daughter and third daughter is the fastest full-Dali, the Jockey Club in March every year to get all my family first, there are over ten thousand dollars a year in bonuses alone!"
