27, came close to Myanmar's Bada, from the county town about 70 km walk, 3 / 4 is a dirt road, due to prolonged drought, and the roads of the ash can be buried into the whole person. Along the way do not see a forest, a large-scale deforestation is being organized into these areas become very ugly. Hegou Lane struggling a little bit of water flowing.
Bumps to the fork in the road near Bada, has quickly fall to pieces the whole body.
At noon, a man named Ho Song from the love of昵tribe village going up, about 1400 meters above sea level before and after the tea cultivation mainly higher altitude areas, dense forest gradually, or even see the pine trees.
Climb to about 2,100 meters above sea level, there is a reservoir, the water is full of dead wood, and Shashi spectacular.
Stealth 2000 meters, dense forests to see the history of the wild tea trees in 1700, Wang, which is now found in one of the oldest wild tea tree. High around 13 meters. Still exuberant foliage. But we must not close, because the local has begun to attach importance to its value, surrounded it with barbed wire.

From the Bada Dasan way back Menghai will be passing a large stockade --- Man to Hani.
At this point I came to understand, guide accompanied us on the Dasan is the deputy director of the village village committee, but happen to be in today, is his nephew with great rejoicing.
Man come to the village close to the size of 1,000 people at the local scale has been considered to be fairly settled, the nephew of the married wife, is from Myanmar border Hani girl.
When the door we are catching up with the village for the elderly to the newcomers in the lecture, I am one can not understand, probably meant is that after getting married to Xiangjingrubin sort of bar.
Into the Hani people, you can not eat, but can not drink the local wine is not produced in their own joke, in several rounds of finding a way out, I was the disrespectful Shengqingnanque managed to drink a small cup, a sudden heart knife twisted, almost live. then shirk take pictures, escaped out.
Rookie of the lecture has ended, so I Shangcuanxiatiao in the vicinity for them to shoot a lot of pictures. I saw the bride dressed in traditional costumes Hani, surface with a shy, yet Chuchudongren, while the groom is wearing a T-shirt, foot slippers, a laid-back dress.
At sunset, the village's elderly have to gradually go back, I turn to the old people taking pictures. While the background of these photos are huge in the afterglow of sunset scenery ----- Man to the village.

Fragment 3:
Menghai less than 100 kilometers away from Jinghong, but a little bit of latitude is more southerly. But as an elevation (1100 meters) the relationship between the temperature of at least 4 degrees lower than in Jinghong, in particular, sooner or later, all the more remarkable.
I Menghai starting at 3 pm when the temperature is estimated at 28 degrees, and when the 16:30 to Jinghong, the temperature not lower than 33 degrees, the body immediately sweat. I gradually being forced to wash the feeling of sauna .
5 o'clock I start to photograph the bridge in Jinghong. Is only 500 meters away, walking is very hard for me. The whole person into the water.
Up and down the bridge took 20 or so, during which fishing or even met a few comrades, one of which told me that morning to catch a big deal, there are seven or eight pounds of like finding their way half an hour, and was finally swallowed the hook and Zhengduan fishing lines away.
Lancang river this season bottomed crystal clear. The flow is estimated that no more than 500 cubic meters / sec. A ship docked in the distant shore, away from the current surface of the river a full 200 meters.
With the Dai Li-year arrival of the rainy season which will be followed to this long and soft sandy beaches, will rapidly disappear from the river rolling into.

Fragment 4:
Because of the 2 months previous experience on how to go easy in remote areas such weapons, how to find car, etc., I have hundreds of times before. From Jinghong to Yi Wu, a car each day at noon just missed this time, which means missing a day of good time.
The car belongs to the fat kick into gear the boss all, can not chat with her three sentences will be able to feel her informed. Her passenger, a local information hub, and she herself, is also quite know how to communicate with foreign passengers, skills, often before you ask, they tell you wish to know information.
When early days, I wandered around the station and kept someone asked me if I stay, these people are unscrupulous business practices and soliciting people dress sense. So I entered a cafe, writing this text.
12:40, the car will be punctual departure.
Fragment 6:
Rain at last April 2 under the sun. This is the end of the clues during the dry season. Although it is small, not even the mountains and the road between the flying dust wet.
I have returned from Jinghong Wu Yi on his way, lucky to ride a jeep of a young businessman. Gallops in rural roads, I casually turned around and saw this car after the yellow dust thrown directly into the sky. If this time I wait and see the mountains on the opposite side, there must be Halley's Comet Mercedes-Benz in the valley of illusion.
In 2004, the unusual long dry season in spring of this area will no longer be called a season. A serious shortage of water so that plants will not germinate and will no longer flowering. Everywhere brown, is the monotony of the whole southern Yunnan mountains pigment. While the diffuse In the unbroken forest fires break out between the mountains and the smoke, the more I am full of excitement and perils of the journey to bring dignified. Xishuangbanna has vast forests, are moving away from us. Few attention to this point, people see is the rubber The price is climbing, large man-made burning of forest land has been used to grow cash crops meant that coin, and this line I have seen a variety of different specifications of the landslide, for these acts of greed written on the best footnote.
The arrival of rain will soon cover all of this, in the hot Xishuangbanna, rain enough to make the whole land became verdant. While the immense verdant, the ecological crisis is growing at an unknown rate of pressing.
Fragment 7:
In the long absence of rain, the observation of one of the six Dasan Keno Hill, elevation about 1,000 meters up and down the road encounters Cai Dongxiao motorcycle, 20 yuan agreed to charter, and part guide. Cai was indeed very good comrade, one to two to go, almost the whole was removed Keno Hill, has only intend to take me 10. Because of my moving, the sky had been raining. this is something.
I have to stay 6 hours in Keno Hill in CHOY roar of motorized comrades, he successively visited Jinuo Folk Village, visiting the local elders, cursory local homes. And he stood among the row upon row of houses overlooking the six Dasan's Yi Leshan . drizzling rain, the tea farmers in the plateau between the bustle. This year, the scarcity of rain would be a great disservice to tea production, this summer's first rain., has given me a personal journey has caused great inconvenience, but must have heart in the tea farmers, certain breeds new hope after the depressing bar.
At noon am, I went straight to ride all Pu'er Tea House, which is the history of Chinese tea famous city. I have ways of Simao City, saw a tall statue - Ming and tea, the sunset down the mountain after a Haoyue are slowly rising from the east, raised his camera to see Zhuge Kong Ming's Yingwu faces have been the moon Yinghui, heart, new wave of strange feeling.
Fragment 8:
50 minutes, from today's regional capital of Simao, who arrived in the regional capital of Pu'er.
10 o'clock or so, the legendary tea in front of gradually clear up.
The naked eye looks, it is a history of not more than 10 years, the city, the entire piece of reinforced concrete surrounded by densely in a narrow mountain basin. Messy complexity of its streets, the only noteworthy is north of a mountain, the relative height of about 400 meters, stands in an area of less than 100 square kilometers of basin margin.
I can not believe that the development is said to more than 1,000 years history of Pu'er, even difficult to find an old house, in order to prove that it had served as the tea capital of China is indeed scenery before, brilliant too. However, walk slowly in the town two hours, I can see is, and Pu'er, a common hundreds of small county, such as the Metro only. If you have too many pairs of tea with a vision to come here, obviously, disappointment is inevitable.
I had to resort to the help of locals. In a culture cadres, pointing, some fortunate to find Jiangxi Center site. Inspired by Montreal in the chaotic accumulation of dust and wood, Jiangxi tall temple hall workers are waiting for the hammer. Perhaps a few days, this building marks the commercial peak of ancient Pu'er the only remaining ancient buildings, it will disappear in the vision of, in its next door rooms have been removed in advance, leaving only a few moldy heap wood only.
Way back when, Pu'er tea, as China's largest distribution center for one, once all directions to be, a time of gathering hall and merchants par, but today, even a little bit of sign is the last and Puer County, also appear to not want to leave. I had to come back better, lamented that her is more clever, a rush shoot a lot of photos, these photos, I am afraid the last Jiangxi Center for Housing in the form of information appears in the image inside.
