Stayed in Kunming during the Spring Festival and remembered to go to Lijiang on the first day of the New Year

Timing:On February 12, Kunming went to Lijiang and turned to the ancient city in the afternoon.

February 13, Yulong Snow Mountain, Blue Moon Valley.

On February 14, the two ancient towns of Baisha and Shuhe returned to the ancient city of Lijiang (Dayan) in the afternoon.

On February 15, Lijiang arrived at Kunming, and the journey ended.

Accommodation:Live in a hotel next to the south gate of the ancient city of Lijiang.

Consumption:The average person is 4100 yuan (350*2 for round-trip bullet trains between Kunming and Lijiang, 750*3 for hotels, 450 for electric cars for scenic spots, 300 for taxis such as Didi, and 400 for food. The hotel cost is relatively high, but the inns in the ancient city are cheaper, but it may be noisy. I spent most of the time shopping outside, going back to bed at 12 o'clock in the evening, getting up at 8 o'clock in the morning and going out. I didn't sit on the windowsill and enjoy the scenery)

Transportation:Didi, rent...

Shopping:Not very recommended, the price is slightly higher, and some are of average quality.

Small Tips:The air humidity is low, it is too dry, and it causes nosebleeds. The ultraviolet rays are strong, so pay attention to sun protection. Sunglasses are a must. The temperature difference between morning and evening is large. During the day, it is still cold in a shady place when the sun is strong, and the wind blowing is cool.

The first day, February 12, Kunming to Lijiang

On the first day of the first lunar month, I had lunch at noon and went to catch the bullet train. It was 4 o'clock in the afternoon in Lijiang. The railway station has buses directly to the ancient city of Lijiang, which is quite convenient. It is only 7 kilometers away.

Living on the south gate of the ancient city, the houses in the ancient city are all height limited, only two floors. The room on the first floor has a small courtyard, allowing you to see the scenery in the courtyard. The room on the second floor is not far away, and there are other houses across the alley.

Put your luggage and enter the ancient city for a stroll. You don't need a ticket and scan the code at the door to enter. I thought it would only be a few streets and I would easily walk through it. The ancient city is quite big, with alleys at intersections everywhere. Finally, the navigation was turned on. There are not many people on the first day of the first lunar month. The ancient city can carry a maximum of 80,000 people, and 59,000 people on the afternoon of the first day, less than 8%.

I had fried dumplings at home at 11 o'clock in the afternoon. I was so hungry. I smelled the local chicken rice noodles while walking. It was so delicious!

Eat and drink well and continue shopping

Sifang Street: Located in the center of the ancient city of Lijiang, with transportation in all directions and alleys around you. It is said that it was built by Mu's Tusi in the Ming Dynasty according to the shape of its seal. This is the most important hub station on the ancient tea-horse road. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, merchants from all walks of life have gathered, and the cultures of various ethnic groups have gathered here. It is the center of economic and cultural exchanges in Lijiang.

They are all two-story houses, full of flowers and plants, and the fleshy meat can be seen everywhere, making people unable to take their eyes off. Entering from the South Gate, we walked one road to the North Gate Dayan Observation Deck. It took almost two hours (taking photos). The more famous Apo preserved ribs are also in the north. Those who need to eat them should queue up in advance. The taste depends on your personal preference.

After eating, climb the Dayan Observation Platform again to digest food.

The brightly lit Dayan Ancient Town (on the first day of the first lunar month, many shops were closed. The green area opposite is Lion Rock, Wanguo Tower, which is closed at night)

Of course. The most indispensable thing in Lijiang is a bar, where singing is everywhere and checking in when passing by.

Lion mountain: Called Huangshan in ancient times, it is located in the center of Lijiang Ancient City in Ancient City, Lijiang City, Yunnan Province. It is an important part of the world cultural heritage of Lijiang Ancient City and a major attraction in a national scenic spot. Named after the mountain is like a sleeping lion, the ancient city buildings surround the mountain at the foot of Lion Mountain. It is the best place to enjoy the panoramic view of the ancient city of Lijiang. Lion Mountain is named after it looks like a crouching lion. It contrasts with the Black Dragon Pool of Xiangshan Mountain and forms a beautiful scene in Lijiang,"lions playing lying elephants".

I wanted to go in and see the ancient cypress trees, which belonged to Wangulou, but it was closed. After climbing for breath, the door closed (admission is 35 yuan)

Sanyanjing: The first pool is the source of spring water, which is clear and clean, and is drinking water; water overflows from the first pool and flows into the second pool. The water in the second pool is clean and is used for washing vegetables and washing cookware; water overflows from the second pool and flows into the third pool. The third pool is used for rinsing clothes, and finally the water is discharged from the third pool into the drainage ditch. In this way, the three ponds are connected and perform their duties.

The next day, February 13, Yulong Snow Mountain, Blue Moon Valley

On the second day of the first lunar month, the sun is just right.

There was a lazy person who didn't eat breakfast. Finally, he read the Internet saying that the hotel restaurant could see the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, so he agreed to get up and have breakfast. It was already ten o'clock and almost missed the meal (breakfast was good).

After breakfast, I went to the Yulong Snow Mountain (there is a bus to the Snow Mountain Tourist Center). I heard the teacher beeping along the way, saying that the Blue Moon Valley at the foot of the snow mountain is more beautiful than Jiuzhaigou, uh, you should finish climbing the mountain early and come down and have a look...

To go to Yulong Snow Mountain, you will pass by Shuhe Ancient Town, Tinghua Valley, and Baisha Ancient Town. Tinghua Valley was originally listed as a must-visit spot, but I gave up after listening to it. Jintinghuagu Road is not very good. It is muddy and dusty. The ticket is 120 yuan. There is no need to check in winter.

Outside the visitor center, staff will guide you to purchase tickets for 130 yuan/person (fee for entering the snowy mountain? It's a pass, including all the attractions in the mountain.) In addition, you also need to buy the cableway from the Yulong Snow Mountain and the bus from the tourist center to the cableway boarding point, totaling 140 yuan/person. If you buy tickets for the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, you don't have to buy tickets for the Blue Moon Valley separately. They are included. However, when visiting several lakes in Blue Moon Valley, if you don't want to walk, you need to buy an additional battery ticket of 50 yuan/person (I don't think it's very useful, so we bought it and only took a short ride. The rest are walking and looking at the lake. I just walk back after visiting the lake. It's a little far to the bus stop).

special reminder, book the cableway and tickets in advance, otherwise you may have reached the foot of the snowy mountain and run out of tickets, so you can only take the road back home.

Arriving at Blue Moon Valley after 4 p.m., the backlight, Baishui River and Baishui Terrace are all average and are not good to see (the light will be better in the morning). Lanyue Lake is okay, and the two lakes downstream are also okay.

The return bus was crowded, and the eldest brother gave up when he arrived at the first parking lot. He insisted on getting off the bus and taking the "Black Pig" 25 to go back to the Ancient City of Lijiang alone. It was okay. When I arrived at the big waterwheel in the ancient city, I realized that the shawl I bought last night had gone off and was covered in fur. I found a Hongqi supermarket and bought a rolling roll. Standing on the road, I started rolling the hair. It was miserable! While rolling, you want to eat something. On the way back from Xueshan, I saw a street with several Dali hot and sour fish shops. I went back to eat hot and sour fish... Fish is okay

The third day, February 14, Baisha Ancient Town, Shuhe Ancient Town, Lijiang Ancient Town

childhood

After breakfast, I set off again to Baisha Ancient Town for 45 yuan. The ancient town is not big, very small, and very old houses. Went into a coffee shop and tried Yunnan Arabica coffee.

Stroll leisurely for an hour. I bought some tie-dyed gauze towels and canvas bags. Passing by a handicraft shop, I saw a small dark green bag at first glance. It's more than a thousand? I still wanted to ask my eldest brother to bargain, but in the end, he took a fancy to a belt and didn't care about the price. The total was 1750 yuan. I didn't understand, so I didn't know if it was expensive (I went back to the Ancient City of Lijiang at night and entered a handicraft shop. The boss asked if the bag was bought in Baisha. It turned out that both stores belonged to this owner. He made his own handmade bags, so he recognized them).

When I went home, I heard the old man say that Zhu Yuanzhang once exiled a group of craftsmen to Shuhe, so Shuhe was very famous for handmade leather goods (there was a large red valley in Shuhe, but I didn't pay attention to anything else)

I didn't go to see Baisha murals, and I was not a literary and artistic person. Tickets are not required for the ancient town, but you need to buy an additional ticket (30 yuan) to see the murals.

Take a walk and leave

Baisha had to pass through Tinghua Valley to go to Shuhe Ancient Town. There was not much time, so he finally gave up and went directly to Shuhe Ancient Town. Shuhe needs a ticket, 30 yuan (To be honest, I never understood why the taxi master asked several times whether to go to the main entrance or another small door next to it, and my brother returned to the "main entrance". When I was shopping, I found that there was no charge set at the small door, so I could just come in directly...

Similarly, many shops in the ancient town are closed and there are not many tourists. There is a Qinglong Bridge in Shuhe Ancient Town, which was built in the Wanli Period of the Ming Dynasty, more than 400 years ago. The stones on the bridge deck were all polished until they were smooth, and even the skate shoes slipped when walking on them. Sitting by the bridge, I thought that people from hundreds of years ago also stopped here, and I couldn't bear to leave. Will a cloud suddenly cover the sun, and then I returned to the Ming Dynasty →_→

Next to this sign, there is a house selling potato cakes in the box → →

See the snowy mountains again

The fried potato cakes and cold chicken flour in the alley beside Qinglong Bridge tasted good. My brother squatted on the ground and ate two potato cakes and a bowl of chicken flour (the chicken flour was too spicy).

streets and alleys

Three wells that can be seen everywhere in the living area

After four o'clock in the afternoon, I returned to the hotel and went to the Ancient City of Lijiang. This time, someone showed the way and went to Mufu. They learned that the official gate turned out to be the Mufu. The sedan chair had to be entered from the official gate and then to Mufu.

There are quite a lot of people in Mufu in the afternoon, and the ticket is 45 yuan. I didn't go in at that time and planned to check if there were fewer people when I came back from shopping. In the end, I closed the door.

His legs were crippled again.

Seeing the wish cards, all kinds of cards, I hope everyone will go smoothly.

In particular, the water in Shuhe River is really clear.

The original plan for dinner was to eat fish after visiting the ancient city. However, on the way back to the hotel, I was tempted by the aroma of barbecue meat. I didn't make an appointment in advance and waited in line from 7:00 to 9:30. Fungi is not the season, so they are eaten fresh, the porcini is a little sour, and the roast meat tastes good, but the oil is spattered, and the clothes and mobile phones are covered with oil drops (I think there are quite a lot on my face--||

The fourth day, February 15, returned to Kunming

After breakfast, I visited the hotel and went to Lijiang Station at 12 o'clock. There were few people and no traffic jams. I arrived at the station in 20 minutes.

After leaving for a few days, it's already very hot when I come back. You can go to the flower market to have a look.

There are more than 3,000 photos, and the choices are dazzling. What are they displayed?
