People often say that the mountains and rivers of the universe are romantic. When we choose to go outside and see the world, we will no longer be obsessed with certain unnecessary things. The friendship and warmth that gradually becomes indifferent on weekdays, and everyone's courage to value ourselves can be cured and nursed back. I prayed for a trip that would go as soon as I said, to bring warmth to life and find a kind of spiritual comfort and satisfaction. This time, I chose to go to Shangri-La, intoxicated by the exotic customs, obsessed by the mountains and water, and regained my lost self while walking.

DAY 1: Arrive and visit Dayanhua Lane (morning) → Cabang Cuisine Restaurant (noon) → Folk Song Square (evening)

Meeting Lijiang probably started in Dayanhua Lane. Like all tourists who come here, I rushed here as soon as I arrived in Lijiang. Unlike the noisy shops and crowded buyers at the entrance of the ancient city, Dayanhua Lane is like a cool ancient city, appearing with leisure laziness. In front of me.

Lijiang

Small shops with unique characteristics stand quietly, and every picture in the town seems to be photographed and turned into a pictorial of literature and art. The flowers placed in front of the door make people want to be greedy to see more, and they can spend romantic afternoons everywhere.

Not only does it have an ancient and quiet atmosphere, it has also slowly developed small shops with a modern atmosphere. Unlike Sifang Street, the shops here all look different, but the exquisite decoration of each house reflects the owner's love.

Horse Gang is the explorer of the ancient tea-horse road. Now that I am in Lijiang, of course I want to try the most famous local horse-dressing dish here. As a well-built local authentic horse caravan themed cultural restaurant, it strives to reproduce the classic cuisine of the Lijiang horse caravan to the greatest extent possible.

Mabang Cuisine Theme Restaurant

I have to say that the decoration style of this restaurant is very suitable for my taste. It is full of romantic literature and art, making people feel like they are in the midst of ancient beauty.

I ordered the signature dish recommended by the boss, preserved pork ribs hot pot, and the horse band dishes really deserve their reputation. After eating, I thought about him for several days. Moreover, the portions are super large, and two people can eat a lot in one pot.

After enjoying my first meal in Yunnan with satisfaction, I followed my heart and walked freely in Dayanhua Lane. After dark, I found myself in the folk song square.

I have read a passage like this: "Folk songs are too poor. One cigarette, three bottles of wine, and I still have to scribble through my life with the only little love I have." In Lijiang, watching a person singing slowly on a guitar is like hugging yourself in this world. Lijiang's folk songs are only sung to those who understand it. If you have the opportunity, I also hope that you will come here and listen to those pure and lazy songs, singing the dark-haired girl in the distance and the sadness that life cannot scold.

In this case, you have to buy a bottle of Meet Lijiang Craft Beer. When I passed by during the day, I saw that these bottles were very beautiful and took a photo of them. Unexpectedly, I tasted it at night. It was a beer that was beautiful and delicious. It has a slight citrus flavor that I have never tasted before. It makes it difficult to control the urge to have another bottle.

When I left, I passed by the big square and saw everyone dancing together. I suddenly thought, how great it would be if I could do this when I was old. Everyone was also very enthusiastic. I joined the dance halfway through, and they also enthusiastically took me to play together.

DAY 2: Lao Wang Restaurant next door (noon) → Lashihai Scenic Area (afternoon)

Compared with the tiring journey on the first day, I slept lazily until noon the next day. This time, I chose Lao Wang's restaurant next door.

The decoration is still so distinctive.

After ordering a plate of affordable hot and sour fish and niche stew, the taste in Yunnan is actually much easier to accept than Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia and other places. I just love it. The little brothers inside were very enthusiastic. When they saw the two of us coming, they asked us to order a dish and soup to avoid wasting them.

The fish is very tender and smooth and has no bones. The pickled cabbage is very delicious. Suitable for people who don't spit out thorns, such as me. haha

In the afternoon, I went to Lashihai Wetland Park, which I was most looking forward to. The scenery here is very beautiful, the wind and waves are beautiful, and even the weather is so beautiful that people are mesmerizing.

Everyone who comes here will definitely take photos in the "Sky Land", where Internet celebrities are filmed, leaving the most beautiful moments against the blue sky, white clouds and blue sea, and taking pictures of the most beautiful self.

The essence of Lashi Sea is blue and green, mottled and blurred, and colorful. It is filled with the clarity of a lake, like beautiful pictures, making me reluctant to leave for a long time. (It is recommended here that little fairies should wear red or white dresses to make photos extremely beautiful)

DAY 3: Laojun Mountain Scenic Area (noon in the morning) → Leave Lijiang by car and head to Shangri-La (afternoon) → Fifth Meteor Hotel (evening)

Yunnan is called the south of Caiyun or the south of Yunling. Laojun Mountain, located in the core area of the "Three Parallel Rivers" World Natural Heritage Site, has the top tourism resources in China and even the world. On the third day of my journey, I couldn't wait to come here to see the real face.

Walking slowly along the plank road, you will see the unique Danxia Red Rock Mountains with lush green forests. Some rock formations are 1.8 billion years old. The valley floor is the quietly flowing Norma River (translated as the sun rises). place).

In addition to walking on the plank road, we can also view the scenery through the cable car, which is especially suitable for tourists who are exhausted to maintain their strength for the next trip. Slowly, Laojun Mountain Park has also developed many projects suitable for people to play. Rock climbing on the mountain is so exciting, and I also experienced it with it, and it was a worthwhile trip.

I always feel reluctant to part with it. I ended my trip to Lijiang with the last Laojun Mountain. In the afternoon, I left Lijiang and headed for another place that people yearn for-Shangri-La. It was already night time when I arrived, so I first came to the famous 5th Meteorite Lightyear Hotel in the local area to check in.

The fifth meteorite Guangnian Hotel, deep in Dayanhua Lane, has the reputation of "sleeping in a lifetime". It also has the legendary fifth meteorite that represents luck, which can bring every guest the ultimate service of "origin from the secret realm, luck follows".

The hotel is fully equipped, especially the bathroom, which is clean and tidy. The most important thing is that he also provides oxygen, which is very rare in plateau areas. This alone is worthy of a full score

The hotel not only provides accommodation, but also integrates themed catering, boutique accommodation, business meetings, and cultural leisure. Thinking that I was hungry alone, I ate here. The spacious dining environment and exquisite dishes make me more satisfied with Shangri-La.

Meteorite Restaurant is a Tibetan-style restaurant worth trying. The restaurant in Guangnian Hotel is called Lucky Meteorite Restaurant. The ceiling of the restaurant is made of transparent glass. In the morning, the sun will reflect down, making it warm and very comfortable. The dishes inside are all very distinctive and delicious Tibetan dishes.

DAY 4: Visiting the Ancient City of Dukezong (noon) → Intangible Cultural Heritage Experience (afternoon) → The Fifth Meteorite Hotel (evening)

It was extremely comfortable to wake up naturally in the morning. The weather was very good, so I decided to go and visit the ancient city. Compared with Dali's Cangshan Mountain, Erhai Lake, the beautiful Lugu Lake, and Sifang Street in the Ancient City of Lijiang, the ancient city of Dukezong seems less well-known, but even it is unknown, it still hides beautiful scenery waiting for us to unveil the mystery. veil. Compared with Lijiang, Dali, the ancient city of Dukezong seems quieter, like a paradise.

Once upon a time, many people said that Dukezong was an ancient city that attracted people at first sight. It was built on the mountains and was just right. It was described as follows in "The Lost Horizon": There was a dream last night, distant and ancient.

Probably swallowed by fire, the solemn ancestral temple, pious monks, simple villagers, and the brightly lit ancient villages among the mountains and snow all seem particularly precious here.

When you look up, you will see the Dafo Temple on the top of the mountain. It is 21 meters high and weighs 60 tons. The cylinder body is made of pure copper and gold. It requires the joint efforts of multiple adults to turn it

Dukezonghua Lane, located in the northwest corner of the ancient city, is the main gateway to the ancient city. When most people hear this name at first, they will mistake it for an alley full of flowers. In fact, it is a characteristic town that integrates large-scale theater performing arts shows, street performing arts shows, boutique themed inns, Tibetan cultural scene commercial streets, and specialty food cities.

Passers-by crosses the street and crosses the river, and the scenery is only for a moment.

After a short tour, I was lucky enough to find the 7th Intangible Cultural Heritage Joint Exhibition in Yunnan Province, preparing to take a journey with national culture.

Tibetan incense was passed down by Jiangshen, a native of Shangri-La. It is a rare "heavenly wood" in the snowy mountains of Tibetan areas and dates back to 500 years ago. Looking at the staff's skillful practices, I also learned from the side.

In the Intangible Cultural Heritage Experience Center in Huaxiang, in addition to experiencing Tibetan incense, there are also other shops with distinctive characteristics such as Tibetan knives, black pottery, and Tibetan clothes. The slightly tipsy Tibetan aroma is refreshing, and the rotating black pottery seems to be telling history. There are also many small items with great national characteristics for tourists to watch, which makes people truly feel the charm of intangible cultural heritage that has been passed down for thousands of years.

It was late, so I returned to the hotel where I stayed last night. Compared with the exhaustion last night, I had no energy to feel the beauty of the hotel. This night, I paid attention to the room, such as the elephant surrounded by the waiter with towels.

Each hook also has national characteristics

The most surprising thing was that there was a set of exquisite small tea tables in the room. This was great for me, who was addicted to tea. That night, I invited my friends on the trip to drink tea together.

DAY 5: Napahai Grassland (noon) → Return journey (afternoon)

Yila Grassland is located 6 kilometers northwest of Shangri-La City. It is the largest and most beautiful grassland in Diqing Shangri-La. Yila means "Leopard Mountain" in Tibetan. It is famous for the fact that the Leopard Mountain located in the north side of the gateway to the Ila Grassland is a "sacred mountain".

Looking around, sheep, cattle, and horses bow their heads to graze and merge into the grassland. They are scattered leisurely everywhere, revealing a kind of freedom and openness of life in plateau Tibetan areas.

Napahai Shenquan Grassland

There is a saying in Yunnan,"If you love her, take her to the Yila Grassland." In addition to the local people, there are also many tourists here riding horses and galloping on the grasslands, which makes people feel relaxed and relaxed. There are also small stalls that specialize in selling local ethnic costumes. Friends who want to leave unique and beautiful memories may wish to give it a try.

concluding remarks

I have come from far away for a one-time appointment to Yunnan. Such a journey with eternal beauty is enjoyable. Indeed, the romantic mountains and rivers of the universe and the warmth of life are all worth my progress. In the end, I returned with a pocket full of happiness. Thank you to Lijiang and Shangri-La for bringing me such a beautiful opportunity.
