The next highlight ~~~

Before traveling, we decided that we would mainly watch the mountains and rivers and scenery, so we decided toDaliandLijiangI wanted to "take a closer look" at two places, so I planned it for a week (I finally found that a week in these two places was a bit long and could save 1-2 days). What we planned to go before we left wasYulong Snow Mountain, Lijiang Ancient City, Cangshan Erhai Lake, Dali Ancient City, I will wait and see the rest when I get to the place. Don't rush for time, but take it slowly.

The flight from Shanghai to Lijiang arrives at noon, and the hotel is at the foot of the Yulong Snow Mountain. It takes an hour to drive from the airport to the hotel. Lunch is served at the hotel. I took a break in the afternoon and thought that there was no time to go up the mountain. I also heard thatDayan ancient townWhen the evening is beautiful, we will set off for Dayan Ancient Town.

Dayan Ancient Town is one of the main ancient towns in Lijiang. There is no need to introduce it too much. My husband was not interested in the ancient town. I felt that I had to check in when I arrived in Lijiang. Fortunately, there were not many people in September and there was no feeling of congestion. It was more comfortable to visit. We arrived in the ancient town at 4 pm and went directly to a commanding height.Lion Rock Wangu Building, you can have a panoramic view of the ancient town. There are endless mountains in the distance, but you can't tell which is the Yulong Snow Mountain. You can see the Mufu Courtyard from upstairs. Because it was late, I didn't enter the Mufu Mansion. I think it would be good to have a look upstairs.

When we came down from Lion Rock, we looked for a restaurant to eat, followed the reviews, and ordered local specialties:Baked tofu, mushroom chicken soup, corn cake, they were both delicious and not cheap. It cost more than 200 yuan. After eating, I walked slowly along the stone road and waited until it got dark. Lijiang is beautiful at night because the lights of thousands of homes are lit up, bright and warm. Many shops are decorated with flowers, which has a unique flavor under the light. There is also a bonfire dance on Sifang Street, which is a local characteristic. After having a full meal and wine, it was a pleasure to stroll leisurely along the stone road on a not-so-noisy night, looking at the shops with scenery on both sides, the gurgling water at your feet, and the occasional cat who looked up and stretched on the roof.

Early the next morning, we visited a village calledXuesong Village, it is "Wuluken" in Naxi, which means that at the foot of the snowy mountain, there is a lake named Jade Lake, hence its nameYuhu village, there is a grassland around the Jade Lake. We walked from our residence to the village and spent the whole morning. The village was built in the Naxi style and also retains the former residence of Joseph Locke, the "father of Naxi studies", the American Austrian explorer, when he lived here. Yuhu Village is a small tourist attraction. Compared with the ancient city of Lijiang, it is very quiet and small. The Naxi buildings are very distinctive. You can visit it when you have time. Almost every household here raises horses and everyone recommends riding horses. We wanted to walk, but we were chased along the way. Horse riding slightly affected our mood.

The next afternoon and the third day, we visitedYulong Snow Mountain, the main attractions of the Snow Mountain areLanyue Valley, Yunshanping, Yuniaoping，Glacier Park, we only had time to visit Lanyue Valley and Yamauping in the afternoon of the next day, and we went into the mountains to visit Yunshanping and Glacier Park on the second day. If you want to see all these attractions in one day, you can only have a quick glance at each attraction. There is a distance between the scenic spots, and it is very convenient to have buses running through the scenic spots. Blue Moon Valley can be viewed when returning from visiting other scenic spots. The buses will pass by the stop. There is a blue lake that is very beautiful. Many people take wedding photos.

There are three cableways going up the mountain in Glacier Park, Yaakuping and Yunshanping respectively, and the altitude decreases in turn. After the cableway goes up the mountain, there is a plank road to move forward. You can do your best according to your physical strength.

Glacier ParkThe highest altitude is more than 4000 meters. The corresponding cableway is called the Grand Cableway. The mountain is cold and you need to bring clothes. There are also down jackets rented at the scenic spots. It was still the rainy season when we came, and we didn't see any snow cover, but surrounded by clouds and mist, like an illusion. The huge rocks where the clouds opened were majestic and quite imposing.

maoniupingThe characteristic is a large alpine grassland, which is very vast, and yaks eat grass in the distance.

yunshanpingIt is a primeval forest with lush ancient trees and a natural oxygen bar. Although I spent two tickets, it still felt worth it!

On the fourth day, from Lijiang to Dali, we took the CMB at Lijiang Station and drove along the Dali Expressway. The scenery was beautiful along the way. Since the hotel was booked in Xizhou Ancient Town, we got off the bus in advance at Xizhou. It took 2 hours on the road. If we drove to Dali Ancient City, about 2 and a half hours.

Lijiang is Naxi culture, Dali is Bai style,XizhouIt is a typical Bai village. We live next to the village, and there is a large rice field outside the village. If it was summer, we would be able to "hear the sound of frogs." Compared with the ancient city of Dali, Xizhou was developed later and has a less strong commercial atmosphere. It is a good place to experience Bai culture. The center of Xizhou is Sifang Street (the center of many ancient cities is called Sifang Street), and there are many snacks, such as Xizhou Baba. There is a famous Bai courtyard calledYanjia Courtyard Museum, pay attention to the "Yan Family Courtyard Museum", because there is another courtyard also called "Yan Family Courtyard", which is two places. The Yan Family Courtyard Museum has a longer history. You can admire Bai buildings while listening to Bai girls introduce the legendary tycoon's fortune. Have another cup of fragrant tea and relax.

We went on the fifth dayErhai LakeIf you look at the map of Erhai Lake, you can see that on the west of Erhai Lake are the ancient city of Dali, Cangshan, and Xizhou ancient town, and on the east are the scenic spots such as Shuanglang, Digse, and Xiaoputuo. A friendly reminder,When we went there, many places were building roads in the west of Erhai Lake, which was not easy to walk., we just walked around in the east. It took us a while, but it took us most of the day. We rented a battery car, started from Shuanglang, rode south along the east lake road, and stopped when we saw the beautiful scenery. We set off from Shuanglang at noon, and then went to Xiaoputuo. It was dusk to watch the sunset on the Erhai Lake. There are many restaurants and B & Bs in these places. If you are not in a hurry, you strongly recommend a tour around the lake. You can even rent a car by yourself. In addition to the Internet celebrity check-in office, there are many places to stop and enjoy.

I went first in the morning of the sixth dayDali ancient city, there were many people, so I walked around the main road. Even after visiting here, there were still many snacks in the city. Originally, I planned to stay in the ancient city for one day, but I didn't want to go around after a long time when there were too many people. I went there in the afternoonCangshanIt takes 20 minutes to take a taxi from the ancient city to Cangshan. There are three cableways in Cangshan, starting from three different places, and taking the bus to the highest altitude.ximatanThe cableway is calledlarge cableway, divided into two sections, and the second half sat halfway up the mountainQilongnongchi, get down at the same place and transfer to the upper half of Ximatan, which is nearly 4000 meters above sea level. Because I have been to the Yulong Snow Mountain, I feel that Ximatan is not too cold. The landscapes on the Yulong Snow Mountain and Cangshan Mountain have their own characteristics. The Yulong Snow Mountain feels majestic, the Glacier Park is full of majestic rocks, and the Cangshan Mountain view is more about various vegetation and rock changes. The other two cableways areGantong CablewayandZhonghe Cableway, halfway up the mountain, it is worth mentioning that an 11.5-kilometer-long walking road halfway up the mountain is calledYudai roadAt both ends of the road are the Cangshan Grand Canyon, the terminal station of the Gantong Cableway, and the terminal station of the Zhonghe Cableway, Zhonghe Temple, and in the middle is the Qilongnongchi Station of the Grand Cableway. Yudai Road connects the three cableway stations. Cangshan Grand Canyon to Qilongnongnongchi The Yudai Road is about 4.5 kilometers, and the Yudai Road from Qilongnongchi to Zhonghe Temple is about 7 kilometers. The road conditions are very good, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the mountains and forests while breathing fresh air. It is quite comfortable. However, the length of this road is also challenging.If you are walking, you must remember the latest time to go down the mountain by the cablewayDon't miss going down the mountain. We only had enough time to take a cableway for half a day. We took the Gantong cableway and visited the Qingbi River and the Canyon. There was an Internet celebrity Jizhao Nunnery that had no time to go. I heard that there were very beautiful succulent plants and delicious vegetarian food.

On the seventh day, I entered the mountain on the second day. I took the big cableway up to Ximatan and played for 2-3 hours. Then I went down from Ximatan to Qilongnongchi. I walked along Yudai Road to the terminal station of Gantong Cableway. I walked faster, about 1 hour, and then took the Gantong Cableway down the mountain.

On the eighth day, we were preparing to return. In the morning, we still walked around the ancient town of Xizhou. As mentioned earlier, there was a large rice field in the ancient town. It turned from green to yellow in September. There were also many people taking photos, so we returned in the afternoon.

Okay, that's basically the tour process. Finally, let's share the climate, accommodation, diet, and expenses.

climate: When we arrived, the rainy season was not over yet. It rained a little every day, but it wouldn't keep falling. You can go out and play. It's just that the mountain is misty and rainy. Sometimes it's sunny when you take the cable car at the foot of the mountain, and it's raining when you reach the top of the mountain. It's the mood to play and play. The rainy season also has the beauty of the rainy season. It will be sunny in October. If you want to see snow in winter, you want to see flowers in the third month of the lunar calendar.

accommodation: The two residences we booked this time are in LijiangChiliu Snow Mountain Kiss Art Hotel, Dali isDali Tiangu Xiyuan Historic Site Boutique Hotel, all good. Chiliu Snow Mountain Kiss B & B is more welcoming and casual. We live at the foot of the snow mountain and the car is not easy to hail. We all pick up and pick up from the hotel. The food is also very standard. We ate several meals and the meal and fare were settled last. Dali Tiangu Xiyuan is a hotel management style and polite. Another feature is that the hotel is renovated from the entire Bai courtyard. The exterior is an old-fashioned building and the interior is modern decoration. It provides both visual enjoyment and clean and comfortable accommodation. These two places are at the foot of Yulong Snow Mountain and Xizhou Ancient Town respectively. I chose them according to the standard of quiet environment. From the perspective of transportation, the hotels in Lijiang are far from the Ancient City of Lijiang and close to the snowy mountains. The hotel in Xizhou is located in the northwest of the Erhai Lake. It is a distance to Cangshan and Shuanglang. We have spent a lot of money to take a taxi in the past few days. Next time, you may consider living in a lively attraction for easy travel.

diet: The local specialties are spicy. The meat mainly includes fish and chicken. I like sweet. There is oneCarved plum ribsRecommended, sweet and sour, vegetarian dishes have all kinds of flowers, we ate themPomegranate flowers, jasmine flowers, rhododendrons,"aquatic poplar flowers"(sea vegetables), try it fresh, and of course there are various insects, but I didn't dare to eat it after looking at it. There are snacks such as daba and bait nuggets.

costs: The two people spent a total of about 15,000 yuan, air tickets were 6400 yuan (for two people), accommodation was 3400 yuan, and transportation and meal tickets were about 4000 yuan. They didn't save money. The part that can be saved is air tickets. We go on Saturday and return on Saturday. It will be cheaper to return and return on weekdays. Moreover, we go to Lijiang and return to Dali. If we go to the same place, it will be cheaper. The accommodation costs more than 400 yuan a night. This trip is a bit long. If you have a full line, you can save 1-2 days. We all take taxis for local transportation, ranging from tens to hundreds, and cost one to two hundred a day. Then we spent two tickets to enter the mountains on the second day, but we also visited many scenic spots.

The above is the story of our trip to Yunnan. Thank you for seeing the end. I hope you can have some reference!!
