First arrived in Lijiang Old Town, you'd better buy the first maps. Because this city, when the original design, but also take into account the factors of war. Strangers into the three turn 2 turn, have to not get lost. The ancient city streets are not wide or long. Did not take long must Guaige Wan. With a few bent Shui down, you could not have come when the road by now. Exclusively, stone-paved road with flowers and greenery around the way around the maze with the same. The city could barely see the reinforced concrete buildings, all built Zhuanmu style of antique Ming and Qing Dynasty houses. Patterns are also similar.
Slowly in the absence of cars, no bikes small street, inevitably into a wide variety of shops to look. Oh, the face of dazzling works of art, commodities, travel books, etc., you are not tempted to do? As a result, the silver in your pocket like the mouth of broken rice bag and kept streaming out bar.
To see a beautiful Old Town of Lijiang map, hand-painted edition, printed in yellow, thick soil on paper, it is not put it down, only 6 yuan. Old Town of Lijiang scenery postcards, a lot of selected several books, 30 yuan. Lijiang folk introduction, 12 yuan. This is too beautiful pure wool shawls, woven out of the pattern above, multi-ethnic characteristics there Well, let her watch TV more than dressed nice ah, 60. To bring her back blocks of brightly colored square scarf bar, 20 yuan .... Oh, soon, hands on the carrying a bag of the piles.
Lijiang people love flowers. Every family in front garden down, the flowers everywhere. Even a small stream on the street, but also arrayed rows of showy. Fly buzzing bees in the flowers, people feel the same in the Paula Lagos. Square Street of the small square, visitors, or tea while leaning bamboo chair, side viewing; or to large and small, put the bag Wangdishangyi, sitting side flower bed rest. Yi Gong stone bridge across the stream, railings on both jammed with people, are looked at under the bridge Gunzhuo Hosonami meanders through the stream. Several children wearing pants to open files, in the shallow, the stream side stood Qingqing paper boats. How many pieces of old trees, huge crown is open for people to sun wind.
Shops on the street signs, in addition to antique Chinese font size, There are still a romantic English name. Several foreigners, in the cafes of the screen before the stop tapping the keyboard, perhaps working with the other side of the planet chat with friends and family do. A fried chicken shop in Germany with disabilities front passenger side, there is a wall, and white walls covered in chicken skull Manaoke kind of Naxi language, looked very strange. This is the ancient Dongba culture, it has also modernized, but also with the civilized world today take the track.
The ancient city streets are clean, clean, people were embarrassed to go to uncivilized. People live in a leisurely manner, work with, travel with. Two days down, had not seen anyone in a row, in the abuses. True there are many tourists come here, the return home to pack valuables, simply on the long-lived in the city. Blond hair and blue eyes, many of them foreigners do.
2 days Lijiang OK, very short, and very short. Had time to play in many places, and many had time to enjoy the beautiful scenery, and many have also had time to feel the atmosphere. But get this little bit, but also enough for me aftertaste for a long time, for a long time.
