The trip to Lugu Lake was man-driven, otherwise I had no idea at all.

I always thought that Lugu Lake was in Yunnan, but I didn't know that Lugu Lake was shared by Sichuan and Yunnan until before I left, and Yunnan only owns about one-third of Lugu Lake.

I originally planned to fly double to and from Lijiang and then drive to Lugu Lake. However, because there were no suitable flights, I had to switch to double to and from Kunming and drive by myself, and then revisit Dali and Lijiang. Although it is still during the epidemic, it is still convenient for Shenzhen to fly to Kunming. You only need to provide a personal health code and a green pass code. Of course, you will encounter multiple body temperature measurements during the trip. As long as your body temperature is not abnormal, you can basically travel without worry.

I arrived in Kunming at around 4 p.m. on May 12. After getting off the plane, I went straight to the car rental point as usual. After picking up the X5 car, I went straight to Shuanglang Town, Dali. Kunming and Dali were on a high speed all the way, but due to the many corners and few straight roads on the entire highway, the average speed can only reach about 80 kilometers per hour. I stayed at Haiqi Seaview Hotel in Shuanglang Town, Dali. It was already 11 p.m. after checking in. The check-in experience that night was not good. First, although the room was large, it was not of high style. Secondly, it was awakened by the sound of suspected animal claws scratching the wall in the central air-conditioning pipe in the middle of the night. Although I changed a room after calling the hotel housekeeper, the abnormal sound was still there, only a little weaker, which seriously affected my sleep quality that night. However, the hotel's service was not bad. Not only did it change my room at night, but it also applied for free check-in for me when I left the store the next day. When I left, it gave me Pu 'er tea gift. It was full of sincerity.

After leaving Dali, I chose to drive directly to Lugu Lake in Ninglang. Dali to Lijiang is a high-speed journey, but Lijiang to Ninglang is almost all winding roads, with the highest altitude reaching 3000 meters. The most exciting part of the whole journey is the Eighteen Bends of Lining, which lead straight from the top of the mountain to the valley bottom. The height difference should be more than a thousand meters. It is all narrow walled roads. Driving on it is very exciting. However, as the saying goes,"Infinite scenery is at risk." When I stood on the observation deck of the Eighteen Bends of Lining and looked far into the distance, I was very shocked by the magnificent scenery that came into my eyes. I suddenly felt that it was worth climbing the mountains and taking the risk of crossing the Eighteen Bends of Lining.

The sky on the Lining Highway line is located at the highest altitude. It is a leisure platform at an altitude of 3000 meters. The sky is blue sky and white clouds, surrounded by mountains, and in the distance is towering snow. It is indeed a place for leisure, viewing and taking photos. Nowadays,"Sky Realm" is popular in many scenic spots, but I found that "Sky Realm" is almost exclusively for women. Of course, this is because of the nature of women who love beauty and like to pose various POSE photos to show their beautiful charm. What about men? Can you also wear a white robe, feather fan scarf or long sword in your hand to show your elegant feelings?

The distance from Lijiang to Lugu Lake is not far, only about 200 kilometers, but almost the entire journey is on a winding road, so the speed cannot be accelerated at all. The average speed is basically about 50 kilometers per hour. The altitude of Lugu Lake is about 2600 meters. When I entered the gate of Lugu Lake Scenic Area and followed the winding mountain road to Lugu Lake, the blue lake water suddenly appeared in front of me, so beautiful that you couldn't wait to stop immediately and look deeply.

Daluoshui Village is right by the lake. Banquet and Lake-View Qingluxury B & B is built next to the lake. Sitting in the room, you can have a panoramic view of the lakes and mountains. You can move to the lake and play in the water. The lake is cool and clear, and the lake is rippling with microwaves. The bright sun shines on the lake, reflecting into the sparkling waters of the lake, and it looks like stars. It's so beautiful! Walking by the lake, the breeze touches your face, and you feel far away from the world and the years are peaceful!

The Ligg Peninsula is located at the foot of Goddess Mountain and is called the Peninsula. In fact, it is more like a narrow short embankment extending into a lake. The "Dear Inn" is located on the Ligg Peninsula. The Ligg Peninsula is also known to more people because of Hunan Satellite TV's "Dear Inn" program. There is a viewing platform on the Rigg Peninsula. It is an excellent place to take a panoramic view of Lugu Lake. The best viewing time is in the morning and evening. At this time, the water and sky are in the same color, and the screen is full of blue, which is beautiful. There are many characteristic B & Bs on the Ligg Peninsula. Although the Liudu-Lehai Residence I stayed in is not near the lake, it is quite unique. It feels like hiding in a small building and becomes a unified place. It is also a good place for Internet celebrities to take photos.

Lugu Lake surrounds the lake for about 70 kilometers. It may not be enough to experience it for three to five days, but it will only be enough to take a quick look for one day. There are scenery everywhere around Lugu Lake. Wherever you choose to stop, you will have its own charm. However, the most essence of it is Daluoshui Village, Lovers Beach, Ligg Peninsula, Goddess Mountain, Yang Erche Namu Museum, Lugu Lake Town, Goddess Bay, Caohai, Walking Wedding Bridge, etc., stop at Goddess Bay and overlook Goddess Mountain. The Goddess Mountain above the lake looks like a long-haired beauty lying on her back in the mountains, staring at the stars, as if she wants to find the one that belongs to her own star; Boating in the sea of grass, the water and grass under the clear lake sway, the exquisite little flowers on the water ripple with the waves, and occasionally disturbed migratory birds suddenly fly up from nearby and quickly sink into the distant grass. It not only reminds me of my childhood; walking marriage is a traditional custom of the Mosuo people, but now this custom is no longer retained, and the walking marriage bridge is just a symbol. One day and two nights, I spent less than 40 hours in Lugu Lake, but it was enough to see the lakes, mountains, and plateau scenery. Although it took nearly 8 hours to get back and forth from Lijiang, the scenery along the way will never live up to the 8 hours. Time.

I visited Lijiang many years ago, but I didn't go to the Yulong Snow Mountain. Because of Gao Yan, I also have no plans to climb the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain this time, but I would like to see it up close. As I approached the Yulong Snow Mountain, I discovered that the Yulong Snow Mountain rose from the plains, so it looked particularly tall and towering. The white snow was particularly eye-catching under the brilliance of the sun. The lens could shoot it without blocking. Record its majestic appearance from different angles.

The Blue Moon Valley is located at the foot of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. A group of large and small lakes fall in the valley in a step-like manner. The water is blue and milky white, as if a lake of milk was poured into blue ink by a group of naughty children. It's so beautiful. The vegetation around the Blue Moon Valley is rich and diverse. Various fruits can be seen when they look up. The pine cones are so big and in various shapes that it reminds me of how happy squirrels are here.

Back in Lijiang, I chose to stay in the Shanyi Art Residence in the ancient city. Parking was not allowed in the ancient city, so I had to park my car in the Nanmen Parking Lot. Fortunately, the residence would arrange someone to pick it up, so it was quite convenient. As usual, I need to check the health code when entering the ancient city. Naturally, I can get unimpeded. The Shanyi Art House is not large in scale and is not very artistic. The guest rooms are not bad, quiet, clean and clean. Starting in the morning, there were few tourists on the streets of Lijiang during the epidemic, and not many shops opened. This actually allowed me to slow down and wander around. A wide variety of flowers in full bloom and extremely bright colors can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, so that I doubted several times whether these flowers are real or not. If I try them with my hand, I will definitely be real flowers. Strolling leisurely in the ancient city of Dayan, I unknowingly stumbled into the depths of the succulent plants. Beside the river and under the eaves of the single room with gurgling water, there are many succulent plants everywhere. Although the colors and shapes are quite similar, these succulent plants have been carefully cultivated and carefully arranged by the owner, but they are so colorful and picturesque that I don't feel like stopping and lingering there. Due to time, I didn't stay in Lijiang for too long. At noon, I chose a small restaurant next to the Muwang Mansion to take a nap. After drinking a cold drink and tasting two plates of snacks, I drove to the ancient city of Dali.

Readers who like Jin Yong's martial arts novels should all be familiar with Dali. The romantic Wangye Duan will probably be the dream of many men, and the elegant little Wangye Duan Yu will be the dream lover of many little girls. The short twelve words of "Xiaguan Wind, Shangguan Flowers, Cangshan Snow, Erhai Moon" vividly summarize the scenery of Dali, and it is this scenery, flowers, snow and moon that makes countless tourists yearn for it. I don't like the wind, flowers, snow and moon, but I only admire the Three Towers of Chongsheng Temple. The Three Towers of Chongsheng Temple were built during the period of King Quanfengyou of Nanzhao (824-859 AD). The large pagoda "Chihiro Tower" was built first, which was 69.13 meters high. It is a square brick tower with dense eaves with a total of 16 floors. Later, the south and north towers were built, both 42.19 meters high. They were a pair of octagonal brick towers, both of which were 10 levels. Only then did the large-scale Chongsheng Temple be built. More than ten years ago, I visited the Three Pagoda Temple in Chongsheng. At that time, the tour guide introduced that the small towers in the south and north were built in the Han Dynasty and are relatively thin; the large tower in the middle was built in the Tang Dynasty and is relatively fat. Because the Han Dynasty regarded thinness as beauty, and the Tang Dynasty regarded fat as beauty, the architectural form of the three towers reflected the aesthetic concept of "thin and fat" at that time. I have always believed the guide's introduction, but now according to historical records, this statement is false. I am not a believer and not very religious. The reason why I only praise Chongsheng Santa Temple is because I am a practitioner in the construction industry. The excellent location of Chongsheng Santa Temple is backed by Cangshan Mountain and facing Erhai Lake, as well as its multi-dimensional layout, magnificent architectural structure, and perfect combination of the three towers and Chongsheng Temple all make me admire.

Dali No. 1 Courtyard was my last hotel during this trip to Yunnan. It is said that singer Faye Wong must stay here when she visits Dali. Of course, I didn't go there by Faye Wong. I just felt that since Faye Wong had to choose, the environmental conditions should be decent. Dali No. 1 Courtyard is located in the corner of the ancient city of Dali. The location is excellent, especially when standing on the balcony of the bathroom, looking at Cangshan in the distance and looking at the ancient city at a close glance, it makes people feel relaxed and relaxed. The windows in the bathroom are bright and clean, and the curtains are closed. Fill a pool of warm water, and half lie in the pool. Through the bright high window, the beautiful scenery of Cangshan comes into view, and I feel exhausted and comfortable. As it is still during the epidemic period, the ancient city of Dali has few rare tourists, and it is less noisy in the past. Walking around leisurely, I feel particularly good, and sometimes I want to "never give up being a Dali guest".

On May 17, I bid farewell to Dali, then drove straight to Kunming Airport and took the flight that night back to Shenzhen, ending a short six-day trip to Yunnan.
