The beauty of Lijiang, in addition to antique Ming and Qing architecture, simple exotic folk customs that she has throughout the whole city's waterways, the stream of Qingqing.
Entering the Old Town of Lijiang, let you have a refreshing feeling. There is a modest entrance plaza, stands the many exquisite Naxi stone carvings and sculptures. A clear end to the banks of streams, huge wooden waterwheel Zhiya呀to ringing, turn a leisurely manner. Stream is not wide, only a few meters. Nothing but ten meters at its widest point. An arched stone bridge, Block's show of the planks of peace together and then both sides of the flow. Water is not deep, more so in the waist. Underwater a stone clearly visible. Xian is not high, a few stairs down, a bent over, you can touch to the cool clear water. The shore was full of moss on the stone steps. 1 Wo Wo tenacious weeds grow from the crevice in the.
Stream sides, mostly rows of green willow. Wind Piaodang thin branches and leaves. How many pieces occasionally a huge old trees, Chang an umbrella-like crown, has been to probe the other side. Sometimes, this stream slips from two rows of brick tile-roofed house in the middle wearing the past. 2 In contrast, an across the board, the more he can from home, stopping by the people to come to the opposite side.
Banks of streams or on the stone stairs, several thick waist of the Naxi woman, while chatting days, while in the water rinse the clothes.

Stone bridge, the beautiful young tourists to spend one's head scarf, full spectrum of postures, it is photography. Blond hair and a man and a woman both foreigners, carrying a stuffed backpack, look around, are hastily walked, seemingly have not yet found the cheapest hotel.
At night, inside the ancient city ablaze with lights. Restaurants, bars, cafes, craft shops, as well as Internet cafes, are open the door, Zhengda put a lot of tourists to make the money. Made me feel special, or the little stream Pingba on the open-air garden. To the two bottles of beer, or two cups of tea Paoshang, quietly sitting in a small stream, slowly goods. The ear is the waves of beautiful Hulusi music, watching the tourists stroll across in twos and threes, good comfortable, good leisure. Suddenly, the water floating lotus-shaped WATER LANTERNS had several lights, candlelight flickered, with a prostrate slowly drift to the distance, allows you to create endless reverie.
Autumn in October, coincided with August 15. A full moon hanging in the vault of heaven. Ji Si thin edge of the occasional drifting away. Through the bridge opening, he saw the water curved shilly-mobilization of the month constantly, looking like I am excited heart.
