I accidentally found a friend posting recorded photos of his recent life in the ticket circle, and finally concluded that "life is all about eating and drinking."

The hot search on Weibo today is the news that a certain celebrity died suddenly at work. His life was vivid one moment, but the next second it passed away.

Things are unpredictable. Be a layman and be greedy for money and eat good food.


A hurried trip to Spring City in autumn

In the autumn, there was such a rush: during the golden October of 19 years, I had to work overtime during the National Day holiday, and I still had to work overtime on Saturdays and Sundays. I traveled through five cities (Tianjin, Kunming, Dalian, Shenyang, and Nanchang), exhausted and breathless.

Give your heart a vacation when you are in a hurry: the fragmented time left outside your busy work is used to make a comfortable spa for your heart. Since you want to skip different scenery on the road, it is better to slow down, take a break from your busy schedule, be a tourist, and experience the scenery.

October 10-October 13, 2019 Business trip to Kunming, Yunnan started a trip to Spring City


D1: On Thursday evening, October 10

T:BK2897 9:40-13:20 Tianjin-Kunming

I haven't taken a flight from Okay Airways for a long time, and my experience is as crowded and cheap as always.



H: Maple Leaf Palace Hotel

After receiving the agreed price from Yunnan University, it was 338 yuan/room night. The check-in experience was not ideal, especially at the front desk service. There is an impressive peacock in the hotel lobby.



F: Namei Dai Family

My first experience with pilaf. There is a small restaurant opposite the hotel, and this one is one of them. The reviews ranked third on the Yungui cuisine review list in Chenggong University Town, so I came to try it. The "hand-pilaf rice set meal for two" is really enough, and the ingredients are really rich. Lemon chicken, crispy pork, grilled pork belly, fried potato balls, cucumber salad, salted duck eggs, peanuts, meat and vegetables, shredded chicken is a little spicy, special with rice. The pork belly is fried until it is crispy and dipped in sauce. It is very fragrant.



F: Maple Leaf Palace Restaurant

It was too late to come back from the school's survey site and debugging equipment. I enjoyed the beautiful scenery of sunset and dusk on campus. We had a simple meal in the hotel restaurant with the lecturer who had just flown in from Shanghai-small pot of rice noodles, which was sour, spicy, greasy but fragrant enough.


D2: Friday evening, October 11

Yunnan University (Chenggong Campus)

Preparations were intensive in the morning and completed smoothly in the afternoon. While completing the meeting, it also put an end to such a large-scale Presentation for the first time. Facing an audience of 300+ students, although I was nervous, I completed it well and was praised by my predecessors.


At 19:00, the prelude to the release time was officially kicked off:

|Taxi-Metro Line 1 (University Town Station)-(Huancheng South Road Station)-Line 2 (Wuyi Road Station)

F: Laodian Shanzhai (Jinbi Store)

It satisfies all my desires for Yunnan food. There are many stores in Laodian Shanzhai, all over Kunming. I wanted to go to Jinma Biji Workshop, so I checked in the Laodian Village of Jinbi Store. Following the navigation, I ended up going up the building from the back elevator. The signature experience,"Simao Sour Soup Fish Fillet", has a particularly obvious taste of spices such as citronella grass. One is arsenic and the other is honey. People you love cannot love, such as me. The sour soup has a strong taste, and the meat of the fish slices is tender and tender. The signature experience of "Crispy Knife Duck" is worthy of the word crispy skin. You can hear the sound of the meal with a bite. The duck legs are really fragrant, there is not too much oil, and there is also juicy duck meat. The signature experience of "Pepper Fighting Eggplant" costs only 9 yuan. The long strips of eggplant are shredded, slightly spicy, appetizing and addictive.

S: Jinma Biji Workshop

[Information] It was built during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty. The existing Jinma Biji Square was rebuilt in 1998 on the original site in its original style. The archway on the east side near Jinma Mountain is called Jinma Square, and the archway on the west side is close to Biji Mountain, so it is called Biji Square. It is the landmark and city center of Kunming, and one of the symbols of Kunming; most tourists to Kunming visit it and take photos with the archway. There are often lively night markets on the surrounding streets at night, so you can go to small stalls and choose what you like.


Every city has at least one landmark, and there is a high probability that one of these landmarks must be an archway. Jinma Biji Square is such an archway, one of the must-check series in the city of Kunming. The night is getting darker, and the lights of Jinma Biji Square are still bright, and the yellow reflects the whole city a little gentler. Poor photography technology made it impossible for me and the archway to be in a photo-the archway could be seen clearly, and my face was hidden in the dark shadow, making it as mysterious as the godfather; my face was clear and clear. It was also decorated with beauty and made it brighter. The archway was bright white behind me, as white as if it was highlighted.

Behind the archway is a mature commercial street, still full of Chinese characteristics, with a brand-new antique style with gray eaves, white walls and red carved beams. Most of the merchants had already packed up and closed their stores. We turned around hurriedly and left in a hurry.



D3: Saturday, October 12


The original plan was to take the early morning bullet train to Shilin, and then consider whether to go to Guandu Ancient Town based on the time spent visiting Shilin. My friend was entangled with work, so he temporarily changed his plan. I went to Guandu Ancient Town alone, and then gathered with her at Kunming South Railway Station.


|Taxi-Metro Line 1 (University Town Station-Xingyao Road Station)-Mobai

S: (Guandu Ancient Town)

[Information] Guandu Ancient Town is located in Guandu District, Kunming City, about ten kilometers away from the city center. It is a famous historical and cultural town and one of the birthplaces of ancient Yunnan culture. During the Nanzhao Dali Dynasty, Guandu was already a large market town and transportation hub on the northeastern bank of Dianchi Lake. There are many ancient buildings, Buddhist temples, attics, temples, commonly known as the "Six Temples, Seven Pavilions, and Eight Temples". In the old days, there were also "Guandu Fishing Lantern","Spiral Peaks and Green","Yuntai Moonlight","Apricot Shepherd","Lingyun Smoothing","Southern Yunnan Lawn","King Kong Night Talk" and "Writing the Sky with Pen" complement each other.


After getting off the subway, I followed the navigation and rode a Mobai over. If it weren't for the navigation, I would have suspected that there was a scenic spot nearby and that it was a 4A-level scenic spot if I rode on the small road with clear rural scenery on both sides.

It was also mentioned earlier that every city has several landmarks, and the must-check series where someone will know where you are when a photo is lit up. In addition to an antique archway, there is also a commercial street in a series of landmarks in each city, such as Nanluogu Lane in Beijing, Ancient Culture Street in Tianjin, City God Temple in Shanghai, Confucius Temple in Nanjing, Kuanzhai Alley in Chengdu, Central Street in Harbin... Kunming is Guandu Ancient Town.

I went a little early, and the ancient town as a tourist attraction had not yet awakened. While the store is not yet open and the tourists are not busy yet, you can stroll alone, but you can catch up with the local residents leisurely dancing to the music. As the background information explains, there are temples, temples, towers and pavilions in the ancient town.



|Taxi-Metro Line 1 (Xingyao Road Station-Kunming South Railway Station)-Kunming South Railway Station

T:D3840 12:11-12:29 Kunming South-Shilin West

|Road 99 Shilin West-Shilin Scenic Area

Shilin County has two railway stations and one passenger station. Compared with Shilin West Railway Station, Shilin Station or passenger station is closer to the scenic area. But 1. The bullet train only goes to Shilin West Railway Station;2. We live in Chenggong District, which is far away from Kunming City (nearly an hour's drive) and very close to Kunming South Railway Station (about 10 minutes 'drive). Comparing the total time of the three journeys (Kunming City + Kunming to Shilin Section + Shilin County), we chose to take the bullet train from Kunming South Railway Station. While doing my homework, I searched the Internet for a lot of information, but there was no clear and accurate information telling us how to get from Shilin West Station to Shilin Scenic Area. Based on the belief of believing in the public travel services of the motherland, I decided to talk about it when we arrived. Sure enough, after exiting the gate of Shilin West Railway Station, you can see buses parked on the roadside waiting to pick up guests. We took No. 99 to go directly to the scenic spot (warm reminder: pay attention to the departure time of the first and last buses).


F: Qiaoxiang Garden Crossing the Bridge Noodles



S: Shilin Scenic Area

[Data] The main geological heritage type of Shilin World Geopark is karst geological landform. It is a karst geological park mainly composed of Shilin Landforms. The stone forest preserves and displays the most diverse karst forms. Tall sword-shaped, columnar, mushroom-shaped, tower-shaped and other limestone columns are typical representatives of the stone forest. In addition, there are karst caves, stalactites, dissolution lakes, natural bridges, cliff waterfalls, cone-shaped peaks, etc. Almost all karst forms in the world are concentrated here, forming a panoramic view of karst geology and landform.


The scenic spot consists of the Big Stone Forest Scenic Area, the Small Stone Forest Scenic Area, the Wannian Ganoderma lucidum Scenic Area, the Liziyuanqing Scenic Area, and the Bushao Mountain Scenic Area. Whether it's big or not, some people say that you can finish it in half a day, but he must mean that you can visit the large and small stone forests according to the prescribed route; whether it's small, some people say that you may not be able to travel all over in two days. Everyone knows the truth of watching the mountains and running dead horses. The stones in the distance seem to be so close, but the paths inside are winding and winding. As soon as the peak returns, the roads turn. It is really not an easy task to visit all these scenic spots.


We walked around by ourselves, based on the principle that meeting and seeing is fate, and regretting may be waiting for an opportunity to pick up relics. We walked many "wronged roads". On these "wronged roads", we disappeared all the tourists. It was as if we had left us alone between heaven and earth, and it was as if we had really entered a fairyland. After all, the myriad of strange stones around us did not look like a human scene.

To talk about the experience of this tour, I privately thought that I should climb high and look far into the distance, climb the Peak Watching Pavilion, or climb the towering land on the plate and overlook the stars dotted with rocks, and sigh at the miraculous craftsmanship of nature, like a northern ridge, with a hint of solemnity; privately thought that I should go deep into my stomach, while experiencing the mystery brought by being in it without knowing its true colors, and at the same time being able to carefully observe the strange things of a stone, only then can I realize that the strange things are in various shapes and interesting.


Fortunately, God received a short but pleasant heavy rain, which gave it a different taste. Hiding under the umbrella and listening to the autumn rain falling on the rocks, watching the rain connect into a line, and looking at the two red characters "Stone Forest" hiding behind the rain and appearing blurred. After a while, the rain stopped, and the footsteps of tourists became chaotic. Only the washed blue sky and the stagnant water in the potholes under their feet remembered this sudden and hastily ended heavy rain.


|Bus-Shilin Passenger Station-Bus-Shilin West Station

After missing the last bus No. 99, at the prompt of the young lady in the scenic spot sightseeing bus, I got on a bus bound for Shilin Passenger Station, then transferred from Shilin Bus Station to another bus, and returned to Shilin West Station.

S: Dianchi Lake

[Data] Dianchi Lake is also known as Kunming Lake, Kunming Pond, Southern Yunnan Zeze, and Yunnan Sea. In the southwest of Kunming City, there are rivers such as the Panlong River. The lake surface is 1886 meters above sea level and covers an area of 330 square kilometers. It is the largest freshwater lake in Yunnan Province and is known as the pearl of the plateau. The average water depth is 5 meters, and the deepest is 8 meters. Lake water drains out in the southwest Haikou, called Mantis River, which is the upper source of the Pudu River, a tributary of the Jinsha River on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.


Experience items:

1. Dianchi Lake Glass Plank Road, 20 yuan/person;

2. Cycling around, bicycle sharing is prohibited, and only bicycles can be rented;

3. Take Dianyou No. 1, 100 yuan/person.



Only by choosing to check in at the right time and lucky enough to catch a sunny day can we appreciate the true and complete beauty of Dianchi Lake. What is the right time? More or less, you are attracted to Dianchi Lake by swarms of seagulls circling over Dianchi Lake, and even seagulls can have intimate contact with people. The above picture can only be seen at the right time. We went a little early. In mid-October, there were still a few seagulls and they only dared to hide from people far away. I asked the locals to come back after November. Why is it sunny? It was cloudy, and the distance was cloudy and misty. The photos taken were not good, and they were extremely far away, and there was no beauty like clear water and blue sky. Secondly, we took the Dianyou-1 and were shivering by the wind on the boat. The temperature is still different between with and without sunshine.

In the end, he was in high spirits. The seagulls are not fed, but the pigeons are.

S: Park 1903



F: Dai Family Courtyard

The new landmark of 1903 brings together major brands of luxury goods, fashion brand, and Internet celebrity, as well as many delicacies. The small courtyard of the Dai family is opened here where tourists are crowded. The overall taste of the dishes is good, and the chicken braised in copper pot on toast is a feature worth trying. The soft and rotten potatoes are pasted on the surface of the chicken, which is slightly spicy and tempting to saliva.

S: Dounan Flower Market

[Information] Kunming Dounan is adjacent to the east bank of Dianchi Lake and enjoys the name of "Jindounan". Dounan Flower Market has now developed into "the largest fresh cut flower trading market in China and even Asia" and is a famous flower.


Have you ever seen a scene where a flower market is like a vegetable market? Selling flowers is like selling vegetables. One truck is pulled one by one, and the other is sold by bundle. It really means that northerners spend winter planting cabbage. A bundle of 27 or 8 untrimmed red roses costs only 10 yuan, and the price of this cabbage also makes my jaw drop. Unfortunately, I couldn't lift it with both hands, and the flowers were too delicate to withstand the ravages of being placed in the bag. I only bought a bundle of red roses and a bunch of dried flowers.



|Metro Line 1 (Dounan Station-University Town Station)-Taxi

F: Jiahua Flower Cake

Jiahua is really everywhere in the airport. I had always wanted to pull grass Jiahua flower cakes, but I had never arranged the itinerary. I finally got them at the airport just before taking off. Next to the check-in counter, it is located opposite to another well-known brand of flower cakes. I bought the most classic rose flower cake. It is said that only three roses can be made into a flower cake. If you take one bite, the aroma of roses will be strong.
