2004 Cool Summer Yunnan OK
4:20 pm on August 19th, I boarded the train Xiamen bound for Kunming, the first secondary ride the train for so long, and my heart is wondering how to spend the day on the train, when a shop opposite the from Banna PLMM (Ruirui) and I chatted up, because she just finished a tour of Xiamen on the 7th to get back in Yunnan, so outdoor sports along the way we talk and talk customs of Yunnan, and talk of how she and five in Xiamen Fang's friends Shortly after midnight, the feeling of riding on the road around the island, combined with beautiful music on the train without even realizing it points to at 9:19 on the 21st, the train departure and arrival of the. Get off of her friends to pick her way, sent me and a friend agreed place.
At 16:00 on the August 21 agreement 5 Mix all in attendance, while a small fish Mix temporarily joined our team, so we started this line of six people in Yunnan. The evening they went to the downtown location in Kunming Golden Horse Square, began looking for the famous bridge Hunan Park, everybody will point the bridge noodle, Qi Guoji, etc., may be too high expectations, these snacks do not imagine so delicious. After dinner we stroll in the vicinity, surrounded by constantly pick fruit hawkers sell their fruit to us, we bought a bag of rambutan, one kilogram of only 5 yuan and Yunnan fruit really cheap, eat fruit friends in Yunnan can satisfy their appetites in.
August 22 8:30 am, we boarded a bound for Kunming, Lijiang, Qichexizhan car (152 yuan / person including insurance), which is the last row of six tickets, but the small fish to the station early in the morning grind broken only paying lip service to buy, which is said every day The first time a high fast, station staff do not want to sell tickets at once to 6 a person. Coincides with the road between Kunming and Chuxiong overhaul, poor road conditions, the voyage, as we all take the last row, then you can imagine the extent of turbulence. At around 7:20 at night has finally come to Lijiang station, the car came a large group of people on the Circuit to send us to the ancient city (in fact, recommended to their inn), we on the one Chu older sister's car, to see her Run achievements of the East Inn I felt that I stay there, and Zhu eldest sister has also recommended a Young teacher took us to the Meili Snow Mountain (350 yuan / day). After dinner, we have six-member delegation arrived in Lijiang, the bar street, point of the tea to sit down and, Bian Hebian chat watching. Lijiang Old Town the night was beautiful, on both sides of river in the ancient city filled with tourists from all over the world, drinking, chatting, taking pictures, singing, etc., feel particularly leisure, mood is very relaxed, particularly large number of fish in the river, and occasionally drift had several lamps lotus lamps, do not have some views. Until 12 am, and we reluctantly returned Inn rest.
At 8:00 on August 23 more than we went, riding the Yang masters a seven off-road vehicles. We discussed the post with his four-day trip: First day to Zhongdian, the next day to the Meili Snow Mountain, on the third day Mingyong back to Zhongdian, on the fourth day return to Lijiang, Zhongdian.
From Lijiang to Zhongdian about more than 4 hours away, on the way to watch Lashihai, Tiger Leaping Gorge, the day the weather is good, also overlooking the Yulong Snow Mountain in the car.
Pull away from the Lijiang city, close to the sea, approaching the time when Lashihai through a green corridor, both sides are lush trees, the fields on the long side of the road a lot of apple trees, really want to pick the next, but could not because of the time Ru Yuan. Shunde trabecular to the street to buy a few just off the apple, only 6 catty corner, cheap bar! Soon we pull into the city of the sea, under the car, greeted the vast grassland, calm lake, rolling mountains, blue sky and grasslands of the Central thriving trees. Few people, but also show this piece of land, quiet, people have the impulse to run on the grass, it is regrettable that there are many horses on the grass under the fertilizer production, have to be careful to walk, while martial arts in Beijing had been a small fog to go very far, and from afar, trees, lakes, grasslands, a white skirt girl, very Qiong Yao's novels the heroine in mood. Next to me holding a fish in the shoot DV trabeculae and Kobayashi, while shooting his mouth trabecular looked so much alike Kathy Chow, I discovered that she was wearing a hat and who really like star, taking photographs later, we read the King Back to the car to continue our journey, the small fish particularly like to chat along the way and small fog, Kobayashi said that non-stop, six individuals in the car especially lively from time to time heard cheers.
As the rainy season landslides, the road is closed to the tiger jump, and on foot will take a long time, it would not take place. Master Yang at noon to take us to the Tiger Leaping Gorge edge of a restaurant to eat, our point is basically vegetarian, because this is dirty with a special expensive, where the Jinsha River is said to fish out the price of certain fish, up to 180 yuan (note you Mix If the driver is to introduce some of the restaurants and inns to be careful, they have a rebate), we were only looking. Our order often can not do without tomato scrambled eggs, tomatoes do Who we are is a captain, and we are very silly to argue dirty dish or pigment. After dinner to the road, passing tiger jump Shoupiao Chuang, I am a harsh stare of that one, I do not know sorry can not enter or angry do not usually gnaw slope protection work had to console myself to "stay the regret that the next rest" . After a tiger jumped the car along the Jinsha River bypass, the scenery along the way is also good, streams of streams, meadows of wild flowers on (where wildflowers particularly beautiful if the 4-6 month, in a pair of wild flowers to be surprised by clicking the shutter the effect of Oh!), Tibetan-style houses have all given me has left a deep impression on the way, after a single-plank bridge, bridge is a clear rushing stream, we have embarked on, led by captain tomato unstable deck hand in hand shot a classic photo.
Our car along the way stop-go, more to the 16 o'clock Songzanlinsi. A lot of Tibetan children the door holding the lamb, to which tourists take pictures, go find it after a lot of tour guides with the team during a visit, I follow a few guided tours, listen to them with his right of Buddha statues, patterns and stories of origin, as well as kinds of legends, ritual, etc. (we captain of particular affinity for Buddhism, but also so that the top lamas to touch a bit with the Buddha destined ah - no way!), if only to look up, I really do not see anything. We visited the temple did not leave quite a long time. Next to the Shangri-La county, lived in Sage Da hotel, feeling environmental facilities can also be (80 RMB / standard room), will lay down their luggage after we have reached a Wild Mushroom Food Museum adequate food and clothing. I was finally at this restaurant to eat a yak meat, but similar feelings and beef. After dinner, we have some people to the Internet cafe near the hotel (2 Yuan / hour, not that expensive), 10 pm back to the hotel, due to the temporary emergency Kobayashi and small fog the next day to rush back to Lijiang, so the rest of travel on from the tomatoes, fish, trabeculae and I continue to be completed.
August 24 morning, the four of us proceed from the Shangri-La, Yang master took us first to see Napa lake and ira grasslands, these two spots are together, from the ticket office looked into only see after a grassland, yak cattle, horses and mountain, did not see lakes, scenery in general, less grass Montreal, flowers, scenery greatly reduced. We did not ride, random walk on out. In the car I complained to the teacher did not see Yang Lake, Young Master, said to be in front of a car park beside the road be able to see a complete picture of where we turned out to see the Napa lake and grasslands, nice scenery make up for the original disappointment. Go down from here, then may be able to go into them, you can save silver Oh.
From here we began to experience after the departure of the mountains and the feeling OK, although I do not have altitude sickness occur, but that made me keep turning a substantial halo formidable, but the beauty of the way quickly attracted me, and my dizziness somewhat alleviated. Moon Bay along the way after the Grand Canyon, Baima Snow Mountain (the highest point 4292 meters above sea level), views are good, that Jin Sha Po Bay (that is Moon Bay) is so spectacular, and fish and tomato slams onto the shutter. After that the highest elevation of Baima Snow Mountain, I am worried about altitude sickness did not occur, thus a lot of peace of mind. Lex Baima Snow Mountain is very ambitious, never seen snow the first time I saw the snow-capped mountains in particular excited, and constantly take pictures as souvenirs.
About four in the afternoon, the vehicle mountains after another, rolling mountains looming in the clouds, it is sacred mountains Lennart Meri, beautiful呀! We suddenly come to a spiritual, parking overlooking Merrill. We only stayed for a while in the Deqin, finding a home studio digital camera images engraved into the CD-ROM after flying straight to the temple opened, which is the best place to see the sunrise Meri. We stay there in the Meri Hill, which is said there, the best one hotel, standard rooms with difficulty talking about 140 yuan / rooms, room is very small, service is not attentive, and even hot water bottle had not sent to the room. We wash comb some went to the bar next to the famous quarter of migratory birds to see the sun sets, bar platform is a good place to see Meili Snow Mountain. We point the potato meal of yak (in fact there are only two dishes: one is tomato egg noodles, a meal is the potato yak no good choice), in that tells us to see, today's weather is good, Kawagebo Feng clearly seen. Then suddenly grunted trabecular MM, because she is the yak meat in the emergence of a similar hair thing, the boss explained that it was yak hair, and we do not want to destroy a good mood, let the boss again put on a plate. To end the dinner on time, trabecular discovered yak hair. Forget, anyway, to eat eat, and then beat ZHANG Zhao souvenir bar. Meri temperature is low, I returned to Villa added a sweater back bar, we moved to the bar inside the only place that there is a little warmer. Evening the four of us in the bar talking to a 9 o'clock on the back rest, a good rest tomorrow, so watch the sunrise, but that night the legendary flea appeared to trabecular MM's feet gets the itch to do, so they must band Mix on the toilet water and antipruritic drugs.
At 5:00 on August 25 more than I got up, opened the curtains to see outside of a dark one, Yunnan dawn of the special late, basically to have a silver lining after 6:40 at night until 8:00 nightfall. At about 6:10 we went to the bar platform for migrating birds waiting for the legendary Sunshine Peak (in fact, we climbed over the fence and out of season for migratory birds, because the door did not open too early, only out of such an unwise move. But I still told You had all of us are, in fact we are "civilized" tribe), cloud cover is too thick, I am worried that even the peaks may also be invisible. Do not wait until 7 o'clock the sun is still there, but that is also five peaks down to a series of face-saving way forward appeared, Young Master tells us that can see such scenes have been very good, and this season it is difficult to see the gold-roofed. Said also that Wufeng could see the already very good.
After dinner we went to Mingyong, from where it used to drive an hour, the way we are far to be able to see a white icefall from the two flushing down the mountain is very spectacular. The road is very bad along the way to go, one side is on the hill side is a cliff, sat in the car a little bit afraid, and soon we went to the scenic Ming Wing Village (63 yuan tickets including insurance). The four of us walked up the mountain, no mule, she felt more comfortable to walk, anyway, are not very far. Mountain scenery here is good, from time to time can see the little squirrels, small goats playing in the forest. Fish is not only took a few steps up the mountain with us, he said, breathing a bit smoother, and we let him wait for us at the foot of the mountain. We walked about 40 minutes encounter bifurcation mouth, selected on the left by stream water (said to be melting snow water) to which the road trip to a viewing platform, saw the close of the snow-capped mountains, but only part, under the concept of King station stairs, next to a road leading to the Peak can be able to another viewing platform, but when we choose to backtrack a bit sorry (blame it on the ticket did not indicate routes), although do not know the other viewing Taishan scenery is even more with the viewability.
After the downhill had been 11 points more, fish at the foot of the mountain to buy a watermelon, in the stream cool thoroughly immersed for a while, then after the freeze watermelon in the water and especially delicious. As the cut is more difficult a watermelon only to the four, each hand holding a big piece of watermelon, that phase can imagine to eat, mouth, nose, hands and even face was full of watermelon juice, strange-looking. We arrived at a hotel after dinner Deqin on the back to Shangri-La, is 6 hours away. I and trabecular Yishang Che on sleep, so we woke up four hours have passed, the spirit slept much better. Detestable is actually photographed quite a few fish and I sleep trabecular capacity, but also a statement to be published on the Internet is really too much, and my heart wondering and I caught the opportunity to shoot him Shuixiang. 18:00 Multi-us back to Zhongdian, tomatoes and fish non-stop phone calls will stay local, Yang Master also took us to the inn to see his friend, but not satisfied with the environment, fear of a legendary flea Finally, we given the strength of selected fish hotel, even made a breakfast voucher, this person was more FB, and we had a FB with him back, then rushed to the nearby dining hall to eat wild fungi, this is the second time we came to this family shops, the last is to Zhongdian, the first night. He Yu boss heard that we would like to cook up a pot he made a special porridge for us, and we have two Cantonese, a Fujianese, one of Guangxi, more selective about the taste of food, the boss also try to meet our requirements! Not with the group is good, eat ate whatever!
August 26 we have compared sleep late, until almost 8:00 to the hotel restaurant to eat breakfast buffet, where breakfast was to our liking, feeling so many days on this meal to eat the most comfortable. After Young finished master took us to the case of both lakes, although many Mix evaluations that less sample, but since come, have a bad experience. Lake on the way to go is all the grass on the roadside to see a lot of long purple flowers, well looked really beautiful. More than an hour later, we are all to the lake, go in and found only a very small place indeed, although the scenery was not bad, but not impressed, I really should be the sentence "not to be sorry, went to be disappointed." After taking photographs we are back to Zhongdian, still in that restaurant for dinner, and then went to Lijiang. 5:00 Multi-we went to the Lijiang, put down your luggage a taxi to the beam river town, I heard that good, but to that found little tourists, might already have 19 o'clock, and there is very deserted, no meaning, and soon we on the back to Lijiang in the evening in a distinctive Naxi small restaurant to eat, probably not used to the reasons, apart from that mixed vegetable pot, the rest we all eat very little, although the water out the window of the small bridges beautiful, we still hastily put an end to this dinner. Then together wandering the streets shopping.
6:30 am August 27, I am a person holding the camera out for a walk in the morning quiet of the city in particular, there is no daytime the noise, feeling good, small bridges, drooping willows bridge ancient style of architecture , neat lanterns, etc., good something leisurely and carefree mood! After an hour walk back to the inn, we had finished breakfast walk in the road, people keep asking if you come chartered, we have chosen a master Lee Santana car, go to Lugu Lake 550 / 2 days (Lee Master's car seat really good, he would like a tour guide, as are some landscapes and local conditions than the previous master who is better. So, what to you recommend Mix, Lee is a master license plate number: T1618).
9:30 am to dictate how we proceed to the Lugu Lake, Lee teacher was Naxi Ren, driving a more stable, while driving to us about the scenery along the route. A bit under the morning rain, a mountain surrounded by clouds, from the window to see out beautiful, the way to the lake is basically gravel with small shops, some of Britain, but still acceptable. Approximately two to three points the afternoon bell as we enter the Lugu Lake area, tickets 41 yuan / person, to reach a viewing platform, overlooking the lake is really beautiful, calm lake, mountain ranges, vigorous pine trees, several small islands dotted in the lake, the distant rolling hills look like Nazuo Sleeping Beauty, head, neck, body is very image of the truth of a landscape heavier. Mosuo people living along the lake still retains the original matriarchal society of the extended family system and the men and women do not marry non-married Assia take marriage customs, which gives us full of curiosity. About 3:30 we went to the village fell into the water, where are all bordered by a lake inn, the master recommended Mosuo daughter, Lee-style Park (100 RMB / standard room), a good environment, they stay there of. The edge of the room there is a pear tree, pear tree hung, could not help but secretly picked two, try the look, taste good. To lay down their luggage, we drove to the lake island boat tour, a first-shima. Boat classified by two local Mosuo people, the weather was good, but the sun is very powerful, but fortunately, we have brought anti-UV umbrella. Lugu Lake water is aquamarine, and from time to time can see the weeds, few visitors this season, the entire surface of the lake is very quiet, a large lake in the play if the feeling is really great (in fact, the lake is very clean, I do not know where Bit Mix have heard a lot of garbage floating in the lake Lugu Lake, Lee master and we are talking about may be mistaken Mix those floating white flowers on a lake as spam. Lugu Lake, the lake has often been removed.), it appears a small island not far from zoned up and is very laborious, rowing's eldest sister asked us You Moren draw with them, and our boss - tomato comrades to come forward to help rowing bow stand, although the depth of draw is not enough, but also a force on the , some of the ship's faster, and soon we reached Snake Island. The island has an old palace converted into a small toast temple, where the lakes and mountains look so beautiful, lake blue sky and white clouds, rolling hills, grass trees reflection of each other, they form a picturesque scenery like, people seemed to dream feeling. From Snake Island not far from where we service i. cross it out, I volunteered to help big sister boating, tried it, than expected difficulty and that too much paste, and laborious, had to draw two bumbling, under gave up. Island block, where a little more than temple service, from the island to see the lake there is no point of view from the Snake Island of beauty, so we only spent a small group of children left, the ship started driven across the border the shore, rowing boss still help , and the technology becomes more like them all, and we joked that he could go in this and do a three-year marriage had coolies.
Dinner on the inn to eat casually, feeling in general. Nearly 8 points, Mosuo people bonfire party to begin, and 10 yuan tickets, go when the people have a lot, a bar on the left to find the second row position, but also the lowest spending 10 yuan per person, it is business of Oh. 8 pm, bonfire party started, a group of small group around the campfire to sing Mosuo girls jumped up, most is the "ah哈巴拉玛达microphone," This phrase, "ah Habala" belongs to tone the word, "mada microphone" is the I love what you mean. About 20 minutes later, a lot of tourists into which jumped hand in hand with them, captain, trabeculae, and I also jumped up with them, fish is responsible for shooting, we played very happy, like kids back to the childhood playing the game that feeling. By the time the three of us singing in antiphonal style back seat, small fish out triumphantly DV, let us see if he shot to live a bonfire in his captain holding the hands of Moso girl still made a close-up lens, but also Why do people say the girl's hand holding it tight, but fortunately, I pull the trabecular hand, if the pull is the Moso small group of hand, really do not know what to do should he feature of the. Followed by singing in antiphonal style from the Mosuo people on behalf of delegates and visitors duet mainly depends on a climate Cougerenao. Watched more than an hour, we came to the party withdrew from the hall barbecue camp, did not feel very good to eat, while on the back of the Inn.
August 28, after getting up the sky raining, listen to fish said to have made a one night, and we invite the master drive to Lee residents in the village, despite the rain poor road conditions, Li masters still very happy with our past, from falling into the water Village open half an hour is up, we get off at the entrance to the village. A night of rain the roads were flooded, and we arbitrarily take a while to see houses along the Moso. Passing through Tashi family restaurant, saw the legendary big handsome guy, a lot of visitors and his photo, but we did not want his photo of two ideas (in fact, in our eyes he did not say, as the legendary commander, everyone's aesthetic point of view is very different).
10 left the back to Lijiang, Lugu Lake, but also more than 5 hours away, everyone was very tired, are asleep in the car. 13:30 to see a lot of street parked cars, the original last night, rain, landslides in front of many, Master Lee, head to a less dangerous roadside, several of us would get off to a cave looking at the situation. Here the cave is not very serious, but Master Li told us that there are quite a number of previous landslides do not know how long, we are very anxious hearts. Many visitors to the name of the coachman municipal government, Department of Transportation, Tourism Bureau of the phone, because it is Saturday, phone is difficult to get through, finally opened the city's duty call, the staff told us that about 8 am bulldozers had to deal with, and We can only wait. Back to the car, suddenly heard a sound of falling rock, wow! Car about 10 meters mountains haste fell stone, scary! Fortunately, no one was following, and we come back again to near the cave, where many people, the edge of the mountain vegetation, more, more safe. 16:00 more in front of the cave has been heard of processing is almost the bulldozers will come soon, a few local people will simply collapse after treatment, there are a few more off-road vehicles rushed past, there is no lack of which has been stuck in the mud The car, which a driver of technology is a test, retro car stuck in the mud they had to change the month before the driver opened in the past. Suddenly appeared in front of cheering a while, the original bulldozers came, and soon road leads, and we are trapped four hours later, he can return to Lijiang, and a total of 10 landslides along the way, no wonder address so long is really thrilling! 19:00 more back to Lijiang, the provisional bridge water inn basically filled, and have come full circle we live Rundong Inn. After today, things we decided to go to Metro's restaurant in the FB click, finally found a Northeast Dumpling House, we have been hungry, and hungrily ate some on the back to the ancient city. We then choose a distinctive shopping Naxi handicrafts, to a 12-point come back to the Inn closed.
August 29 morning we continue visiting the Old Town of Lijiang, since a few days ago is night time to Lijiang, only to see the city of Lijiang in the evening, so we look at the hills on the ancient city of Panorama tower, and then visiting the Square Street, the old town to the Quartet Street as the center, separation of 4 Avenue, each has streets and alleys main road hand in hand, here extend in all directions, road are shops slate, road lanterns hung on both sides of many houses, together with small bridges, quite unique. At noon to find the one Cantonese restaurants open, point a lot of vegetables, taste pretty good, restaurant decoration is very personalized and feel good. Eaten in the car after dinner we went to the station rushed to Dali, inns Zhu Sister to help us set the Dali to Kunming by train, 21 o'clock to open up, to the marble is more than 5:00 in the evening. We take a cab, well after three towers overlooking the ancient city of Dali and洋人街casual stroll, not far from here, Lijiang feel good. After dinner, went to Dali on the Metro train station near the train station is also a good night, unfortunately did not bring a tripod, camera yield good results.
At 6:20 on August 30 so we went to Kunming, looking for a hotel, booked two standard rooms (180 yuan / room), small fish and trabecular No. 1 did not leave Kunming, Kunming, they still spend two days. That day the four of us wandering the streets in Kunming on the way all the way to buy fruit to eat, they caught sight of a Cantonese restaurant, and gave us the chance to FB, so many days we have not used in Yunnan features snacks, finally finding a familiar with Cantonese style, so we are back to the hotel after a hearty meal break. Night captain and I have to leave Kunming, fish and trabecular me to the station, a 10-day trip is over, really reluctant to leave everyone feeling a little bit, although we did not know before, but the ten days from morning till evening, everyone from the do not know who is familiar with the mutual trust, which 10 days with everyone going through things and people gave me left a deep impression, small fish of the talkative, trabecular lovely captain's smile will remain in my memory.
