In September 2003 to Lijiang, Shangri-La came from, and his way to the Tiger Leaping Gorge. Shangri-La is a mystical mountain meadow in the natural scenery, scenery naturally is a genuine Tibetan characteristics. World-famous Tiger Leaping Gorge, greet me, when exactly was his Kuangzao when clamps the shore arrangement Qiao Ya, a water Pentium, slumped down, frightens Shehun. But a closer Lijiang, tight and juicy mood, suddenly slack down.
We live in a pedestrian hotel, just within the city. More than 10 non-native, it is so simple and close integration with the Lijiang.
We Dong, our ancestors have always been there mountains on the water, living habits, but the Naxi ancestors of the water used to make the ultimate peace is indeed over and over again let me indulge the meantime.
Here the water, pure is not a statement of the self. Stream from the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, in the ancient city where the serpentine curves, in Lijiang for a few days, I have a Xianxia Lai, then along this pure liquid, 4 Xia Guang, that clear, that pure, so you simply forget in a city walk through, along with the Naxi people had lived for thousands of years, raising generation after generation of people of Lijiang. Wood House, to the city time, precisely in September where a sunny day in Yunnan golden afternoon, in a well edge, water, vegetables, laundry, three lined pond in an orderly manner, according to the Naxi girl accompanied us introduce , since the Old Town of Lijiang has been formed, so that the water has been used to exist. Is a distribution center in ancient times to the Square Street, was almost clear, distortion of the clear stream will still be with a single step, or from your fingers flow. The result of this pure water, Lijiang city full of spirituality.
The daytime of Lijiang is also very charming. But I am more fascinated by the darkness of Lijiang. Advised the accompanying guide us to be careful not to get lost at night. But in fact, get lost in Lijiang is the more people appreciate the beauty of Lijiang.
To Lijiang the night of the Lijiang charmed a pedestrian has been a long time, just to lay down their luggage, despite the bumps along the hard work from the Shangri-La, he plunged headlong into the old city into. Start time to time came close to the north of the south chamber finds fault with, but more than 20 minutes later, when I from the wall quite some years to recover some of the walls of Youyuan thoughts, the side had no familiar faces, have no idea in the end away from the hotel how far. I am liking the memory is bad, in the oldest of many years of Guiyang, some sections have been to many times, a slight change in the North has also touched. Therefore, a business trip I fear most is lost, halo peace of the Well, slap, there are one in Hangzhou, Yuquan Guan Yu lived in the vicinity of a hotel, go to the city visited the circle will be confused, and had to fight, but the actually only two minutes walk to the driver are embarrassed money. However, and in those large cities is not lost, as in Lijiang I am actually not the least bit of panic simply by patiently and take the street wearing a Lane.
The time the lanterns, lanterns everywhere, everywhere is the shaking of the shadows. Toward the waterside of the street, ask the residents Inn family business, take a look at how the old master's Forge exquisite Naxi arts and crafts, and backpacker talked about their journey through thick, looked at from a passing of the Naxi woman "daytime" in costume, ┅ ┅ walk in the quiet water of the River, although the tourists around constantly in the past or vice versa, but the mind remains quiet, and even such a trance: walking in the stone paved streets, feeling tired a few days ago where the footsteps are light Ling-up, several times in the absence of Shenxiang, I feel that he is the one to the water line of a foreign land wandering soul, no direction, no sense, nor even the physical, ethereal very much a ray of Ye Feng, on the Lijiang The ancient city where rains swing to go with no fixed tracks. In the end, I set some Chuqiao the soul of the hotel looking for back roads, the rise of a surprise, Meng see our hotel-like plaques and a tall girl with enthusiasm over the Naxi greeting I was a mess to dig out the key card, a surprise to see is this. In the quiet of the galleries walk through trying to get to faint, I found went to the hotel lobby, the girl told me that I was coming in the back door of the hotel. Later, Lijiang locals tell me that against the current and the line, you will not get lost. I do not notice how I go, but this is probably lost in a beautiful and unforgettable.
Friends have visited Lijiang, Lijiang repeatedly with me Let's talk about the "bar." This friend was a woman filled with romantic atmosphere, Lijiang, when talking about the kind of charmed love, just like longing for the long-awaited lover. In my opinion, to Lijiang, not to water's edge a variety of "bar" inside bubbles, no doubt regrettable. Casually selected a waterfront bar house, called at 1:00 to drink something, which can be alcohol, coffee or green tea, but also, but the drink is of secondary importance, and in the Old Town of Lijiang bar inside the house, a sit down mood will slowly calm down. In particular, if it is near water, it would be better, and before your eyes are quiet and Rosen of the flowing water, on hand to self-release of a glass of wine, tea, or coffee, sit quietly, quietly suck, quietly to , quietly released into the atmosphere any mood, time of Lijiang, is your own Kexin woman, she would not disturb you, she would quietly accompany your side, waiting for you to wake up from a dream.
Say that water is a nourishing cultural, Lijiang is one such city. The bookstore in Lijiang, Lijiang, there are a number of studies books, a look forward to account for the majority of locals, casually pointed out repeatedly, these people are not what the university is not even a professional engaged in cultural work, but Lijiang research, Naxi culture, to explore, some of which are simple and full of wisdom, insights. Can be seen from the local people for the love of Lijiang, the kind of love is not a superficial form, but in-depth love bone marrow. In the Square Street of a bookstore, I casually bought this "History of Lijiang ancient city," a look at author name for wood, know as the locals, looking presentations, parties know that he had a research institute in the provincial capital, but is still in Lijiang culture, under the inspired and returned to Lijiang, this thin booklet, he accumulated four decades of data. In recent years, the Lijiang people, more or less heard of Naxi ancient music. To Lijiang, I have seen many times on TV Naxi ancient music of the feature film. However, the study of Naxi ancient music to listen to Naxi ancient music, or so I am shocked. And the most popular performance difference is that the main actor for the white beard and hair to make the elderly, I was photographed with the camera before the opening of the actor, after coming out of a friend saw, actually thought it was wax, and everybody looked with distinction. But that is so, these old people are can be called artifacts, and performances are mostly in the Central Plains long ago lost in music, such as "Shan Poyang", "Shuilong Yin", "Gold and Sand" and other words seen in the Tune, early is no melody, but in Lijiang, which reproduce and once again revived. That night, the famous performing artist Mr. Sun Daolin sitting in front of me a row, the moderator introduced after the applause of his audiences. In the process of listening to ancient music, many people are extremely inputs. I think, for this era and ancient "living fossil", and many people may be unfamiliar, but for high-grade art, for those who engaged in noble cause, every heart is certainly full of listeners respected. The Lijiang, located in Lijiang, Yunnan plateau, since the late Sui and early Tang dynasty since its an open mind to absorb the essence of multi-ethnic culture, forming a unique Dongba culture in the modern Lijiang, there such a Cultural miracle, is not surprising. The second night, to arrange a reception called "Lishui Jinsha" song and dance, go, I objected strongly, but after the performance, and I'm rather ashamed of his own shallow, and the dancers for the Yunnan minority culture in-depth ribs of the understood and interpreted, so that several drunkenly audience applauded, which was allegedly such a song and dance is to get out of several private investors.
According to the locals say, because that field Lijiang earthquake and known around the world, so that a human shengjing, so that a city steeped in culture, but by a disaster to the world, for people in terms of Lijiang is bitter. But perhaps it is this experience, Lijiang ancestors are particularly value this legacy, whether it is for water protection, or protection of the city, ordinary people in Lijiang you will feel the body was particularly strong. I have not yet reached Lijiang, a friend sent me before to such a text: "Passing Lijiang, Lijiang on, and through their history; walked Lijiang, there will be a kind of warmth you left behind ... ..." as compared ○ ○ three years in September, I walked Lijiang mind Dangqi the water generally true inner feelings, so that the mood had sophisticated crystal of up gradually, and unable to extricate themselves in love with Lijiang.
