Autumn in October I finally have the opportunity to set foot on a train bound for the southwest, to experience this magical land style. 1 to the Spring City too late to appreciate her gorgeous smile to go on to catch the Dali's car that night Hao Ran the sky, the stars blinking, moon low-reliance, the prosecution recited the legend of the beautiful, brought me gradually Rumeng Xiang. Morning wake up out of the window Qiyun Yinyun river on a gorgeous floating restaurant, the book "Welcome you to Dali," so I wonder if I still dream a long time. Soon a beautiful girl dressed in Bai costumes greeted us on the train: she will be our guide in Dali, you can call her Golden Flower.
Blue sea blue sky white clouds, accompanied by the Castle Peak road, we really can not imagine our line more than 1.9 thousand meters of altitude on the plateau with his right Jinhua black, white, yellow, green way of origin, Cangshan and the Erhai Lake edge Jinhua, A Peng their story. In Yen Bai Jia Da we understand people's houses; in Hudiequanbian reverie grand gathering thousands of butterflies; in Three Pagodas of Dali remembered ancient culture collections. Finally, we came to the Duanshi Dynasty Center, Flying Swallow aspire Lubushiyi, closed at night households Dali, stand on one of its ancient deeply rich: marble bench, marble lamps, marble faucet; wood painted doors, beams, column and still wearing costumes Bai grandmother, grandfather were in the sun leisurely look. Everything was so natural, yet so serene. Then realized that was amazing too Nagawa magnificent mountains, or small Juanxiu I came to the southwest border of the land is not to landscapes, but feel the Central Plains culture and Chinese culture difference. 26 nationalities in Yunnan is the master of this piece of plateau, due to the traffic inconvenience, there is not much interpretation of their culture and language software, national traditions inherited from generation to generation, closed in the past led to the survival of the nation now has its own style. Dali Bai peoples for generations Cangshan years under cultivation, Erhai side fish; fishermen vow intermarried with the surname Chen and Fang; Golden who heads the hat of a beautiful marble can be seen not only the famous "wind, flower, snow, month", but also distinction between unmarried and married ¨ ¨ ¨ We linger in the Bai customs, landscapes, preferring Bai dexterous hands of women beaten up stitch a practical manual ---- tie-dye fabric, but also surprised the love of nature to Cangshan ---- picturesque marble products, they all had become a foregone conclusion and we are heavy.
West of the east when we have clear recollection of rain in the foot a second journey to the World Cultural Heritage ---- Old Town of Lijiang. The same simple, or streets, bluestone, Mulou and every household in front of streams, not the same ---- Naxi ethnic and customs. Girl wearing Naxi dress received us, and she told us that the frog totem of the Naxi people, in the performance of her dress there. Behind the decoration as a whole looks like a frog, above, on behalf of the black night, five small white wafer on behalf of the stars, the middle wafer tape on behalf of star light, white on behalf of the following day, indicating the Naxi women's hard work, you can use 4 generally be "daytime." Of her parents in Lijiang Naxi people still live in traditional patriarchal societies, women inside and out physical exertion, the men had nothing to do with the seven characters puts it, "piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, tobacco, alcohol, tea" . In our sound of a record straight for her, but she smiled excuse, "is not Yes, they did it to make our world-famous Naxi ancient music." However, in such a patriarchal Naxi, where they are living with one of its branches ---- Mosuo family, there is still a matrilineal clan, their own way to maintain the power of the status of the mother and the consolidation of the right to their territory.
In the Black Dragon Pool Park, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain we enjoy holy Oasis formed after melting and listen to the old man with Qiangdi, reed pipe, festival drums, cymbals, Guqin playing Naxi musical millennium rhyme, analysis has also used the 'Oracle' -- - Naxi classical. "" Do you know what Naxi do? The bridge of water in a ancient city of Lijiang, you can buy store owner on the spot of the Naxi Ancient carved with a knife stained bamboo tray (or wooden plate). Our generosity to the owner smile, let us also have the Naxi culture.
The third day we approached the Yulong Snow Mountain, a pity that I do not know why guide only let us go to the cloud-bin dam overlooking it, with the conquest of it, close it, feel it is a gift missed the snow goose, it is still reluctant to reveal a true Lushan side curtain, with white clouds as the veil, albeit not very clearly. At the foot of the mountain have been so naive as to make streamers tried to grab the Cloud dress up the mountain they discover that cloud looks almost real but far, only the forest to fresh air attacks on my nerves from time to time, telling me that it's lonely and proudly. There is also access to the Tibetan, Dai, he one with impunity in the mountains open up my voice singing to attract your attention, make your silver, but a variety of high-quality wild mountain herbs, cheap sheepskin vest really let you put it down .
Religious issues in the world due to a dispute, violence and even war, Lijiang is a place where unlimited inclusive, four kinds of religions live in peace here, the development of their own, and even the same room. This point is where you can fully embody the Baisha Murals, the middle of that picture Taoism, Buddhism, Yin Islamic religion, Naxi separate ways to teach his followers gathered to listen to a sermon. Such a mural from the Song Dynasty to the Tang with 300 years of time by different believers to complete. Figures due to changing times, changing the concept of beauty and ugliness are plump change; different Christians have different clothing, posture, but one thing the same, they have to exchange in good faith with a smile. In the roof of the Central has a unique in the world of graphics, it is the Taoist gossip, but the gossip surrounding the Buddhist mantra that says, we can see what it means to understand the need to both understand each other. True religion, race, so, the state case, the souls are more necessary to the case. The possibility of mutual assistance can be successful!
