D1 (9月10号, Friday)
11:00 MU4852, Shanghai Hongqiao Airport, arrived in Kunming, 2:00. As a local travel agent in advance please help a friend at the airport on the day to get to the Dali 21:30 the train. However, two par value of 86 and 93 dollars sleeper ticket, plus fees received our 200.
Without further ado, hastened to the train station hosting the rod box, seize the time stroll Spring City Kunming. Bought a map, riding on a 3-way bus to the center of Kunming Jin Ma Bi chicken Square. To be honest, simply to visit it, in fact two arch mediocrity, unable to arch the foot of Huangshan Mountain in comparison communities. Go south, east and west to reach the Temple. Sitar relatively isolated, East Tower in front of a pedestrian street, this street is clearly Hump the more eye-catching, in addition to some of the shops sell some crafts. Some meaning, we can go and see.
To leave the Twin Towers, Sun has begun to West Ramp. And GF hurry to catch the 57 Road to the Tai Guanlou. Originally wanted to take a look at before departure Xishan the Dianchi Lake, and later to understand the actual situation, the lack of time. So we can only go to Grand View Park, a long look at the best in the world together. To be honest, Daguan Lou did not give me leave behind a deep impression, including the one called the best in the world long joint (I have the impression that seems to Suzhou Humble Administrator's Garden also has a long joint, I do not know who is more). However, Da Guanlou entrance of the two lotus pond is attracted to me and GF eye. Go to the late hour, can only be imagined a few weeks ago, the lotus bloom, contests the scene of the. Because few visitors, I and my GF is very comfortable in the entire park visited the one times.
To leave the Dianchi Lake, 10 yuan in the city center to eat a rice noodle of the bridge, to the railway station of the. Kunming Railway Station is being rebuilt, is rather unclear. A train to Dali, which are mostly tourists. Just a group of fellow chat on Shanghai.
Expenditure: Shanghai - Kunming airfare 2 2200 yuan, Kunming - Dali train 200, meals + snacks = 36, transport 27, ticket 12, maps 4.
D2 (9 Yue 11, Saturday, rain)
On the train started raining. 5:30 am to Dali, when rain hard. Travel agencies around the tourists have been picked up by a car. My GF in heavy rain, cold and hungry, and made a wrong decision, but also blame me prep homework not done properly. On the taxi and went to the Dali ancient city and spent more than 40. To the ancient city is still surrounded by the dark. My GF is a very embarrassing time in the rain, but fortunately found a halal restaurant, shop owners to get up early to pray. Well-intentioned owner out of their food gave us breakfast, really felt very warm.
When we are looking for local storage of luggage when the couple met a pair of Jiangxi. They are very warm and had invited us to swim with the inn where they live hosting luggage, we went to ride with them cruise ship docks. The tour guide holding a GF card, my student card expired, and Jiangxi her husband's military officer, we have more than 190 people a day tour of Dali slashed three of the 460.
Erhai upwind big rain, we got into the cruise ship box (Jiangxi his wife host a party). Bad weather, Cangshan shrouded in clouds, the Erhai Lake on the waves is also great, the general feeling. 3 tea to tell the truth, very difficult to drink, especially the second No. 3 Road, sweet too uncomfortable. Bai song and dance performances, but some of the meaning, and the small group performances are very beautiful girl. Small Putuo is a tiny island, only some of the stalls selling barbecue and a small temple, a tiny, crowded island, I did not go up. Nanzhao style island are still OK, and some marble statue inscription records the Nanzhao country's history, scenery is not bad.
Used disembark after lunch, went to the Butterfly Spring. No butterflies, can only see the plants withered branches Daochui on the water. Tourists are in the spring in the face wash. Played a hurry, feeling in general. The next stop is the Three Pagodas. Three Towers in the main tower at the foot of the town of mountains and rivers never very imposing inscription. Three Pagodas built after the great bell Nanzhao and another hall, feeling a very different architectural style and the Central Plains. Three Pagodas according Cangshan back, facing Erhai Lake, the only shortcoming of poor weather. Despite the more expensive tickets, 52, but the more worth recommending. There is no insight into the sunny day when the Three Pagodas reflection, and some regret.
To leave the Three Pagodas, tour guides gave us pounding from paste. Took us to see Jade, no one took us to refer to Bai homes. Because we miss the weather is not good, you want to quickly rushed to Lijiang, there is no fuss about. Back to the old town, hastily visited the circle to buy a 6:20 to go in Lijiang bus ticket.
Mist-shrouded mountain roads along the way, can not help but I have some security concerns. Lijiang is a reach around 9:30, due to later than the time of appointment 1 hour, the scheduled room was canceled, and only a three-person common among 50 a night. Here you want to complain about young people looking kulou Inn, on the first floor three good human accommodation. No way to care about too much, hastily wash bed.
Expenditure: Dali - Lijiang 2 80, stay 50, 23 meals, Dali day tour two 190, traffic 53.
D3 (9 Yue 12, Sunday, rain)
Get up early for fear of doing just happen days or rain. Abandoned their plans to the snow-capped mountains and decided to stay in the ancient city of wandering inside.
Bought a hand-drawn map, we are the street level. And Zhouzhuang, Wuzhen compared to Lijiang larger, folk and modern, business-oriented are very good to be together, for us, very interesting novel. Town Center, a scene is almost a step, despite the bad weather, I frequently press the camera shutter.
Wandered 51 Street, encountered a Naxi woman shopkeeper, her boyfriend pulled Zhongdian chartered day trips business. Heard you Zhongdian students in general, given the bad weather, but also the mentality of holding this one tour, decided the next day went to Zhongdian, and package fares. Naxi girl also warmly recommend the shop next to the royal inn, went to the room on the second floor of standard rooms, sanitary conditions are good shower. And the boss some counter-offer, 60 transactions.
The next step to determine a good trip, was very uncomfortable rain, from the look kulou moved inn luggage to a new inn, and he plans to wash with hot water bath, comfortably sleep one afternoon. Continued to stroll at night, photographed a few good night.
Expenditure: 43 meals, accommodation, 60, map 6, shopping 194.
D4 (9月13号, Monday, overcast)
Riding on a Naxi drivers Chang'an car, start a new day. Weather improves, we are on the road to the distance from time to time to see snow-capped mountains. Che Xingzhi Shigu town, close to the Yangtze River saw the first bend and the Red Army monument. Unable to overlooking the first corner, feeling a bit disappointed.
Tiger Leaping Gorge at noon near the hotels designated drivers to eat lunch. The car headed straight to Zhongdian.
The first stop was in accordance with La Prairie Napa lake. Compared to Mongolia, it may not be known as the prairie here. Napa lake and more like a swamp, to the rainy season, they pulled off a lake. But the said spring, the pastures full of flowers, it should still quite pretty, but they could not see Napahai of. Tibetans around the residential areas and huge racks of drying food down more attractive our attention.
Goes to the Songzanlinsi. To be honest, I feel too mysterious Tibetan Buddhism, I am not cold. Just look at the building only. Because it did not went to Lhasa and Xining, Tar, I have felt quite majestic. Some strange thing is, women can go anywhere, except inside the kitchen, and some hard to understand.
Leave Songzanlinsi, but also four hours to return to Lijiang is already 10 pm by. Return on the road, and drivers have been accompanied by his wife agreed on a pair of Sichuan Province to continue the next day chartered to snow-capped mountains.
Expenditure: 29 meals, snacks, 10, 200 package fares, tickets 56, stay 60.
D5 (9月14号, Tuesday, sunny)
Finally sunny days, let us glad that the decision did nothing wrong.
Passing Ganhaizi, took some pictures. We have direct access to the Maoniuping. On the MAONIUPING, spectacular snow-capped mountains close-emerge. After a long shopping area, walking on the Plank Road, watch the snow-capped mountains, feeling very good. Tourists in general has completed Plank Road to end, we looked at the distant rear, not willing to spend money on horseback into the mountains to find a small group of Tibetan yak a guide, we walk into.
Facts have proved the correctness of our, we have around 4,000 meters of the meadow on the foot by 3 hours, scenery is spectacular, and even a pair of American young people also joined us. Particularly in the Snow Lake, surrounded by only a few people we have, looking at clear water, blue sky, snow-capped mountains, grasslands, hear, only the breeze shaking the neck of yak bells sound like screaming with excitement. Suggest that you have to like us, went to see.
Baishuihe played in the vicinity of play took a few pictures. Due to fatigue, the hour is late, and accompanied by his wife feel that big rope 160 Sichuan, the price is too expensive, and we do not have snow-capped mountain, in fact, due to GF tour license holders can avoid a ticket, we have been wanted to get on. In this advise you, be sure to control a good time, and we play some shuffling going on, otherwise, can also be Ququ big rope, or Yuhu whatever.
Back to the town, in the inn-keeper set out the next day to Lugu Lake, where the two-day chartered a cost of 100 yuan per person, two days one night, contains only package fare. We also teach you a stroll out of my 128MSD card is full, and found a cafe to photograph Kaodao U disk.

Early in the morning departure to the Lugu Lake. Halfway stopped twice, once to see winding mountain road, as well as the distance the Jinsha River, one stop closer look at the Jinsha River, the city used in the Ninglang Xian lunch. Car climbed over five mountains, finally to the observation deck. As the weather is very good, the lake is very blue, and scenery so beautiful and I have a dizzy feeling.
Boating in the lake, with respect, is zoned for an hour and three hours, there is no difference. We are 35 per person designated two islands, drawn more slowly, there are about three hours more than the results of the return on the road, the sky turn night, I almost froze to death.
The driver stayed in the village fell into the water, the original want to live inside cells, but said the hearing accompanied by a girl friend said Rigby poor sanitary conditions, fleas much, I can only follow the crowd to live in the water there.
Bonfire night party also attended by quite well, Mosuo guy girl singing and dancing performances, Man You characteristics. Is the interaction between the audience when the order of some confusion. I finally, and a pretty pretty girl photographed, GF, and also took Mosuo guy. Eat barbecue meal, since I am not like barbecue food, so do not feel are worth recommending, but the price of more expensive over there.
Lugu Lake is really beautiful night sky and the stars, the rise will be able to appreciate, not to be missed.
D7 (9 Yue 16, Thursday, sunny)
Played a severe drought, the lake to see the sunrise, very beautiful, we should not miss the Yo Snooze.
Run out of breakfast, the driver took us to the Rigby stroll. The whole lake was built according to Rigby and saw the famous Tashi home, Phuntsok Dolma Inn. Morning walk along the lake road, left the hustle and bustle of tourists, a closer look at the lives of local residents, but also very interesting. I think, to Lugu Lake, where Georgia can not go ah.
Leaving Rigby, the driver took us to his oldest brother's house, where the Big Brother house sitting on his grandmother Huotang Bian, give us a lot about the Moso people of knowledge. Come to Lugu, home visits are a necessary program.
To leave the Big Brother house, went to the Glen. This is a newly developed attractions, allegedly a major source of lake water. Along the way Tonamiyama secluded, water gurgling, landscape very good, worth recommending.
Noon, left the lake, directly back to Lijiang by. To reach Lijiang, is already in the evening of the. And his girlfriend out of Chile Dun chicken, but also will be visited the night market.

D8 (9 Yue 17, Friday, cloudy)
Morning and went to the Beam River, saw the second under construction Lijiang, and where rice farmers used. Well worth a visit.
Afternoon went to the Black Dragon Pool, due to cloudy, very unfortunately, did not shoot the water the reflection of snow-capped mountains. Did not climb Xiangshan. Here should be the ancient city of Yulong Snow Mountain near the best viewing places, empty words, might as well go to go shopping, that is 20 tickets for some expensive.
The evening is business as usual, because it is the last night in Lijiang, buy a lot of souvenirs, including wood carvings, paintings inside the pot, yak jerky, etc..

To Kunming is the 19 o'clock and more quickly, and GF ate dinner, added some snacks, catching up with the 8:51 bound for Shanghai, K182 times. All the way silent, nearly 4:00 pm on the 20th arrived in Shanghai.

In this way, the end of our trip to Yunnan, and was a little disappointed, due to landslides Road Tiger Leaping Gorge bad, GF resolutely stop me to go tiger jump, but more are wonderful, especially the ancient city, ancient city of night, snow-capped mountains and the lake.
Some small experience:
1. Kunming area is not, you can buy a map, select the appropriate bus could save taxi money;
2. Bring all the documents can be used as much as possible to save tickets;
3. Zhongdian, in my opinion, not very worthwhile. If there are tight, totally unnecessary.
4. Number of contact:
Royal inn-keeper, Zhao Tianyi, inns in the large stone bridge near in good condition and the price is right, telephone 13,320,410,865;
Chartered driver Xin tiger, Naxi Ren, telephone 13,320,419,219, he drove very well, people are rather kind;
