Guilin Yangshuo Tour in early spring the work of the entire seven years for the first time annual leave, the selection of Guilin to Yangshuo this line, because in most parts of China have not yet warming in February, in the southwest of Yunnan and Guangxi is a good choice , and I planned at least 10 days or more rows of Yunnan, and I am the only 7-day vacation, so I chose to Guilin to Yangshuo in Guangxi this line.
Before their departure, on-line reference to a lot of friends, travels and the Raiders, for my trip a lot of assistance. Because just Guowanchunjie almost no friends or colleagues to join me you can leave colleagues, in order to avoid the journey alone, more that can SHARE some of the costs, thereby reducing overall travel costs, I made a post on the CTRIP a result, there are three friends to I replied, hoping and I have the same sex, the two boys in Shanghai, Shantou, one of the girls (and eventually the girls and my colleagues did not), because the starting time and the difference in means of transport, we meet in the final set in Guilin.
February 16 the first morning I flew to Guilin (ticket 480, playing 20 fare, airport construction fee 50 yuan), to reach the airport in Guilin Liangjiang time is 12:50. Before I have to get in touch with a family hotel, the next aircraft, according to their tips, I took the airport to Guilin in Southern China Motor Bus Station (20 million), sit a Bus 18 Bus transfer to Guilin North Station, the High-Aunt (family hotel owner) has been at the station waiting for me, all the way very well. Although the need to transfer, but in a strange city, I would rather do public transport, rather than a taxi, not quite all to save money, but that took the bus more easily let you know this city.
High-Aunt home is a five-storey house, appearance and inconspicuous, but entered the room the entire house after the wooden decor and simple make people feel very comfortable. Each room is decorated into a log cabin look, very simple. I finally chose the 5 floor of a cabin, 40.
Settled after the high-Aunt introduced me warmly to the scenic spots in Guilin. Because look at the netizens said that no special attractions in Guilin, I am prepared to use the afternoon and evening hours or less feel Guilin, Lijiang River on foot leaving early tomorrow morning.
Aunt sent to bring high-maps, I am ready to go out. Accompanied by a person at night because the train to, Please pick him up high-Aunt. Aunt send the map to bring high-, bus-car quickly to a cross street, here is the commercial center of Guilin, walking away from the sunny streets and parks near Xiangshan. Out of the car, first wait to go to the famous stone in mind to eat a bowl of authentic Guilin rice noodle, 1.8 yuan / 2, 2, is simply cheaper, and taste very good. Feed themselves, began shopping pedestrian street Zhengyang nothing special, Jie Liangbian filled with a variety of clothing stores, restaurants, CD shops, jewelry stores, etc., hanging lap nothing.
From Zheng Yangjie out, along Jiefang did not go far on the way to the Riverside. Because it is the dry season, the Lijiang River to my first image is not very good, but because in urban convenience, quality is not very good, but pretty good Binjiang Road, along the edge of the sidewalk is very wide, and the tree-shaded, is Members of the public good place to spread and exercise.
Riverside has always been to go far along the road you can see the Elephant, and or because the dry season, the Elephant did not imagine that the Sino-US. Far took two photos, was wondering whether to buy a ticket go to see, and found next to a stopped up with Jigen rope fence, an old man ready to come out, I went to Rotary, he an old people look at me like tourism, offered to give me quite the tour guide, go take a look at the park. Surprised and flattered, but also into the Rotary old, old people told me some stories of Guilin and the Elephant, but also tell me what the point of view the most beautiful Xiangshan, I quickly asked him to shoot me and Zhang Xiangshan, a photo, but unfortunately it did the sky late, old eyes may also be are not very good, photos, results are not very good, but the old enthusiasm impressed me.
From the Xiangshan Park, out of days have basically dark walk back along the Riverside Road, Lijiang has units across the colored lights played a far liberation Bridge and Seven Star Park is also colorful, very beautiful. Cross Street, Zhongshan Road has become a pedestrian street, it sells are all kinds of tourist souvenirs, nothing special, just choose a very nice horn comb sent Laojie (45 million).
Dangling and return to high-Aunt Department, the other one has not met a friend who has come and say hello to play a sound, went to the downstairs to eat dinner, I requested the High-Aunt made porridge (taro lean meat porridge, special incense), but also of the cauliflower and fried tofu. Can also eat away from home such a good Deli, really happy. This high-Aunt meal I received 2 yuan money, was so excellent value for money of the.
At meal time, received another fellow partners, SMS, he will more than 5 o'clock the next morning to Guilin, high-Aunt taken upon itself the task of them to stay, so that we will be more sleep. An appointment the next morning 8 o'clock start, first bought a train ticket return journey, and then went straight to Yang Di.
February 17 woke up, washed and finished to see the early morning to Guilin FRANK, a Taiwanese friends, which gives us one more trip behind the topic: cross-strait unification.
Aunt junction with the high post, high-Aunt himself to take us to buy good return journey ticket (307 yen) even made us to the station, 1000, and we bid farewell exhortations exhorted 10000.
According to my plan, we need to complete the journey on foot Lijiang River, from the Yang Di to Xing-ping of about 24 km away. There are many in the South Railway Station from Guilin to Yangshuo minibus, half-way junction in the Yang Di and get off at 7 yuan fare. Sit CMB to the ferry fares 2.5 yuan. Flower 2 yuan / person started walking through the Lijiang River. From the Yang Di to Xing-ping is a tour of the most beautiful scenery of Lijiang River where the choice is to walk in more detail the main taste Lijiang, also regarded as the test of the body (although the road is very simple and relaxed). Despite being in the dry season, still can not hide the beauty of Lijiang, the three of us all the way Happy, stop-go, take a look at scenery, patted photos, and farmers in the middle is also a riverside restaurant a meal (40 yuan ), time-consuming a total of six hours to reach the destination Xingping town. Beautiful scenery of this trip, nothing to say, want to share with other Mix three points: one, this walking route is I went through the most simple and least dangerous route, young and old and should, do not worry about long-term non - Exercise is not afraid to take down, in fact, physically demanding very low; 2, the entire route to ferry three times a river, so as not requested by the Government to buy 16 of the Commission votes, has done the local ferry, as long as 2 yuan per person, a total of six dollars. Cross the river three times, respectively waves Ishimura, the family state, and nine horse paintings at the cold mountain village, this time we were in the way the local people and deception, and obviously not to the family state, a farmer have to talk about here that the whole family crossing the state, We are skeptical on his pirate ship, the old do not feel like any other bustling crossings if the other side did not achieve any significant way, and good can go, so we go there when the ferry crossing must ask clearly for what; 3, in the way There are many local farmers open restaurants, multi-use wood or bamboo, Da Cheng, and thus they do not bring any solid food, we eat lots of that family very well and is a bend in the Lijiang River mouth, the proprietress also allowed myself Shimoji Zhaicai, What Zhai eat anything, eat how much Zhai, fresh vegetables, meat accompanied by their own doing, really enjoyed lunch meal.
Paste one side of my foot when the Li River photos, my bag could be oh, nearly 20 pounds.
16:30 we arrived at the end of the Lijiang River Xingping town on foot, according to User's introduction, we find the LO Suk-Ho Pui Tsuen / dish her aunt. We do not have to call in advance, directly knocking the big iron gate of their home, a husband and wife are pleasantly surprised to see us, greeted us quickly into the room. 2 master is in fact not local farmers, they are Guilin who retired here, bought a piece of land two years ago, that is, the two moved here after retirement, growing vegetables, gardening, plant fruit trees, fish, feeding Chicken farmers who had played an authentic life. The second floor is dedicated to the guests live, all-pass shops, a TV and air-conditioning, only 15 a person, clean and inexpensive. On the second floor there is a large balcony on the third floor has balcony. Bath on the balcony to see scenery, surrounded by mountains in the evening, smoke curl, in mid-air to form a layer of mist, people intoxicated. A small courtyard, plate aunt for our Zhaicai LO Suk-in for us grasp the chicken, thinking must be very delicious dinner. . . . . . . . . . . . .
Night with the chicken dish aunt gave us a pot of chicken stew, a big tub washing vegetables and radish to us to eat hot soup inside, and then paved the soil egg and leek pancake, drinking Quanpi Jiu Li River, eat the chicken really match god!
February 18 to get up early in the morning and found that last night, did some rain, the air more and more pure, this rain will allow solution of the Lijiang River thirsty. Washing is completed, plate aunt has used the remaining chicken broth to us yesterday, down a pot of chicken soup noodles, finished off junction End (3 meals, lodging, Total 115 million) bid farewell to this warm, gentle and happy couple, sitting Xingping to Yangshuo from the CMB (4.5 million). The way all of a sudden it began to rain, but also that to Yangshuo it to rain, did not think God really help to Yangshuo, when the rain has stopped. Prior to Yangshuo I would not be as good as the first two days accommodation, because to stay three nights in Yangshuo, I would like to find a good hotel. In the West in terms of the three hotels, facilities are not bad, prices are also very cheap, generally a standard of 50 or so, and some can even talk about 30, but I think West is too trouble, and decided to look for an edge, or to Lijiang River . On the road we find Wangjiang House Riverside Hotel, the boss is very easy-going, we set the third floor, two standard rooms, 80 one, the boss of a person to see me live, will take me 70 1. On the third floor has a large balcony that is outside of Lijiang, the latter four days I often here, reading, daze, appreciation landscape. Here from the West and the Emerald Road, have only a few steps away, like clubbing, eating very convenient, but avoid the hustle and bustle there, and they often could hear the elementary school next to an invigorating reading Teana-like sound, is really never excellent recreation area.
Set accommodation, lunch time, Yangshuo's first meal must not be ambiguous. According to User's recommendation, we went to Red Star Express, where taste PIZZA, indeed more than Pizza Hut's delicious, and cheap, we are satisfied, checkout, the three people ate 43 per issue.
Had lunch at 2:30 pm, each of us rented bicycles to ride to the Yulong River direction and started riding along the road, because condition, and road conditions are very good, and the roads were also small, we cast of the ride, feel the Speed speed, behind the half-way is a path in the countryside and even the ridge on the road, GIANT mountain bike full play to its excellent performance, I feel every day is really the value of ten-dollar car hire. Speed Cuntou in the field, often got lost, but fortunately the villagers along the way are relatively warm, but you have not asked where to open one's mouth, they can take the initiative to give you that direction, but it will be is to Yulong Qiao. Very smoothly, and we went to the legendary Yulong Qiao, nothing special, a certain year of the old bridge, not very beautiful, but feel good at the bridge looking Yulong River. A villager told us with enthusiasm the history and legends of this bridge, we finally chose his bamboo raft drifting Yulong River.
Lijiang Yulong River is a branch of scenery is very beautiful and the water clear, on both sides of the mountains from time to time change the shape, is to hang rafts of master frogs constantly give us mountains, butterflies, mountains, bats, mountain, Sierra Leone, etc. and so on, could not bear. We are also, and he played a song. Because it is off-season, the day of the Yulong River, it was we wanted to package the next, and we almost revel in the landscape between.
Reach the Yulong River downstream has been dark, stomach Hao E, stepping on a bike flew back to Yangshuo.
Dinner we went to Emerald on the road, where to eat Pijiu Yu Xie big sister, it really taste very good, then we have West's "no" also eaten once, taste is not that bad.
After dinner, passing Shuiguo Tan, bought some oranges, because the dish her aunt had been eaten, knowing where oranges taste good, then every day we almost have to buy a bag full of here, and then divide the balcony eat, so Yangshuo VC these days we eat too much.
February 19 whenever he woke up, accompanied by partners have early and get up on the balcony reading books, eating orange. West Street has heard that breakfast is very rich, we have come "under the moon," each point of a Western-style breakfast (60 million), and then eating breakfast, watching the film (almost every West hotels or bars can see them for free movie, the real is to see DVD), think of this moment my colleagues are already working in the company, he felt really happy.
Have watched the film back to Wangjiang floor, rented a bicycle, to continue our journey. Today's direction is Mountains of the Moon.
Today the weather is exceptionally good, blue sky and white clouds, green mountain and water. The way to the moon mountain road all the way will be through the Butterfly Spring, Kam Temple, large banyan tree, we just looked largely outside, knowing there is not much meaning, nor has it entered. While riding a while to chat about, so we ask for directions, the villagers told us that have been riding before. Can only be turned around to go back. Quickly to the Mountains of the Moon door, tickets 9 yuan, 1 yuan bicycle custodial fees.
Mountains of the Moon is not high, because the top of the mountain there is a semicircle of empty, much looked like the moon hence the name. There are ready-made steps up the mountain road, up the hill not too strenuous. If you have physical strength and courage (small roadside tree of the block "tourist stop" sign), but also can continue to trail from the cave while Rao continued to climb, to the real top of the hill, where the view is more open.
Mountains of the Moon down, stomach Hao E, Yamashita a lot of locals want us to go to their house for dinner, we found a middle-aged woman looked very capable and prepared to go to her house for dinner. The way she took us to her home ground Zhaicai, there are Lijiang River on foot when the experience, I Zhaicai is a journeyman. While time on a bag full of cauliflower, Indian lettuce and pea seedlings.
The woman actually is a farm home, hotel, there are more than 20 beds, she said March 2 there is a more than 100 of the regiment will go to them here, her home is also a reception point, it appears that the city people Nongjiale forms of tourism is still very much. She gave us a few Deli, I do not know because the material is good, her art is good or I am hungry, and vegetables taste very good. This meal cost us 35 yuan.
Have enough to eat, ride back to Yangshuo. To the hotel lie down for a while, and then the rocking chair on the balcony terms of novels, eating snacks, unknowingly went to the dinner. Today, we are ready to try the "no" dish. PIZZA his family is also very good taste, and the Red Star Express has a ratio. We also point the Italian beef, iron powder and the like, drink and chat. This is the point where the hotel is good, that is, when the hotel again when the bar, you can also look at West Street on the coming and going. Ten o'clock in the Yangshuo town, stroll around in a circle, but also bought some orange and back to share.
February 20 to 21, I do not arrange special events, wanted to give himself a leisurely two days, daze, idle time, so a Lanjue sleep, eating breakfast were fine, read novels, write, travel notes, to the riverside spread , clubbing, eating oranges. . . . . . . . .
21 afternoon Yangshuo bought a box of oranges ready to back to Shanghai and return to Guilin, Guilin to a colleague brought some specialty cross, and then riding the train back to Shanghai, all the way to sleep, look at the scenery, 22 on the evening return to Shanghai . Remains the crowded streets and buildings, not on a Li River side of pure air, and some not meet, but must adapt to tomorrow, but also to return the company to work.
