Meet Lijiang again

I can't remember how many times I have come to Lijiang, but I can remember coming here once a year.
No matter what others say about how commercialized Lijiang is, I still like to come to Lijiang to lie down, stare blankly, and rub dogs.
Although the ancient street is very noisy, there is still a peaceful world.
After staying in the city for a long time, I always want to come to Lijiang to live my own little life.

There are countless tourism-oriented cities in China, but many places are one-time sightseeing. Cities that can make people want to visit again must be very attractive in all aspects. For me, the place I can visit again and again is Lijiang, south of the colorful clouds. Lijiang has many profound memories for me. Since I first visited Lijiang four years ago, almost every year since then, I will come and visit this familiar ancient city.

I don't know when it started, Lijiang has become a representative of romantic encounters, but to this day, there are fewer opportunities to encounter romantic encounters in Lijiang. Nowadays, more people come to Lijiang to stay in inns, bask in the sun and be in a daze. When you're cool, you can go out to visit nearby attractions. When you are tired, you can also drink tea and read books at B & Bs. In Lijiang, I never go to scenic spots, and always look at the clouds and clouds in the most comfortable manner.

In the square of Sifang Street, the Naxi people sing and dance. The unique dances of ethnic minorities always attract tourists to surround them on three floors inside and outside. However, it seems that the performers who come to see them are different every year. This year, there are obviously more Naxi aunts and mothers.

When I want to give myself a vacation, I always come to Lijiang.
No matter how strong the commercial atmosphere is here, the rhythm in the ancient city is still so lazy compared to the city. Moving forward against the river of time, the people I met and the stories that happened in this town have gone away.
Returning to Yunnan and Lijiang in this special 2020, in addition to looking for my original memories, I also came to relax. This trip is not for attractions, but for a leisurely holiday.
Some places will always come again in the dark.

This time when I visited the Ancient City of Lijiang, I also discovered a new place, Dayanhua Lane, which is a newly promoted online celebrity photo resort. Bougainvillea is in full bloom, folk songs come, and we meet the real Lijiang in Dayanhua Lane. In fact, I didn't see Dayan Flower Lane in the past two years when I came here. It should also be a newly built Internet celebrity attraction in the past two years, adding a new touch of color to the already mature ancient town of Lijiang.

Dayanhua Lane is located at the north gate of the ancient city. With the theme of Meeting Lijiang, it is an ancient cultural experience alley integrating tourism, entertainment and performing arts, leisure vacations, and cultural experience. You can see a large plaque at the north gate of the ancient city, which says Dayanhua Lane, but to put it bluntly, it is a new Internet celebrity check-in spot in Lijiang because it is decorated with many photo elements.

This colorful staircase is the most obvious place after entering the flower alley. The pattern on it should represent a symbol of the Naxi folk culture. There are many people coming and going here to take photos. When I was taking pictures, I happened to pass by a cleaning aunt wearing local ethnic clothes. I invited her to sit down and take a group photo together. For me, it would be better to integrate into the local people than to be beautiful alone.

All kinds of wishing signs are hung all over one side of the wall. Tourists coming to Lijiang include almost all types, couples, families, close friends, or celibacy. However, they all have a common characteristic, that is, they are full of literary and artistic feelings. The wishing signs can write down the blessings and literary statements that we can't hold back in our hearts and hang them forever in a corner of Dayan Flower Lane, Lijiang.

Dayanhua Alley is a very artificial attraction. There are artificial decorations everywhere. Some people like it and some complain about it. However, an Eye of Lijiang has been built here, which is a panoramic viewing platform for the ancient city of Lijiang, so that you don't have to go to Lion Rock to buy tickets to see the panoramic view of the ancient town. From the high platform of the Eye of Lijiang, you can have a panoramic view of the ancient city.

Dayan Huaxiang is also a paradise for folk artists. In summer, a folk music festival was held in the square of Huaxiang. At that time, there were many people gathered here. A group of folk musicians full of poetry and distance gathered here to let tourists forget their worldly troubles. Today, the stage is still preserved. Occasionally, some singers stationed in the ancient town play the piano and sing here. They are not necessarily doing this to make money, but more hoping that their talents can be displayed on a stage.

Dayan Flower Lane is still dominated by flowers, the most common one is Bougainvillea, which has become a symbol of Lijiang. If you come here in early spring, you can still see cherry blossoms, hydrangea flowers, and wisteria flowers. That is the most beautiful time in the alley.

Every time before leaving for Lijiang, I would search for inns and B & Bs. After all, in the ancient city, whether you are comfortable or not is the most important thing. This time, with just a glance, I took a fancy to the Poxin Yunshe at the foot of the ancient city Lion Mountain. I was probably attracted by its copywriting and photos, so I made a quick decision.

a courtyard
Poxin Yunshe, I prefer to call it courtyard than an inn and B & B, is located next to Mufu in the ancient city of Dayan and very close to Sifang Street, but it is not noisy at all. It is noisy outside, and it enjoys peace alone. It's a 10-minute walk from the gate of the ancient city. You can't drive in the ancient city. Uncle Yang from Boxin will push a tricycle to pick up people and luggage.

Walking into the courtyard of Boxin Yunshe's house, I was a little shocked by the tall Chinese gardens and Naxi style, because it was so big! You know, the inns I stayed in the ancient city before were all small. Because the competition between Lijiang Inn was fierce, the overall situation was relatively small. However, my first impression of Boxin Yunshe was that it was large, with a large public space and a large courtyard. The room was also large.

Poxin Yunshe is more like a garden, with flowers, trees, birds and flowers singing, and there is also a swimming pool in the swimming pool. The two pools here seem to be together, but they are actually separated. There is a clear water pool on the periphery and a swimming pool in the middle for guests to swim. In the hot summer, guests can go to the pool to cool off. At night, it is particularly beautiful with the dim lights and rippling waves. Water is like the soul of Boxin Yunshe. There is such a clear water pool in every Boxin home.

There are many fleshy and colorful flowers planted in the yard, full of vitality. Each step is a flower, and when you look back, you can see the scenery. Living here is like living in a garden. The photos are very good among the flowers, and the girls will definitely like them very much. When I was taking photos in the courtyard, many tourists thought it was also an attraction and came in to take photos. The inn was also very welcome.

A Boxin Home
At Boxin Yunshe, I felt like I had returned to my own home. The staff here all called us little sisters and little brothers, which brought us closer together. There is no specific front desk here. It is not a traditional hotel and inn, but a person walks into his own courtyard. I especially like the atrium area, which has an entire book wall. It is very comfortable to read and drink tea.

The style of the logs seems to be very Jiangnan, but it also incorporates many local Naxi styles. Boxin's home is naturally integrated into the local cultural environment. In many details, the design's intention can be seen. Whether it is the coffee table or the shape of the lights, it reflects the yard owner's pursuit of quality.

The atrium is also an open-plan restaurant, which may not be obvious at first glance. Boxin's buffet breakfast is also very rich. In addition to the regular varieties, there are also local specialties such as rice noodles, bait nuggets, roasted milk fans, and Lijiang Baba. On the first morning in Lijiang, I ate the bait nuggets and milk fans that I longed for, and the scene of my first visit to Lijiang reappeared in my memory.

When the weather is good, the terrace on the top floor can overlook the panoramic view of the Yulong Snow Mountain and the ancient town. In the evening, I like to come to the top floor to blow in the wind.

There is also an oversized mirror on the terrace that can capture the feeling of a mirror of the sky. Of course, when the weather is good. If the weather is bad, then find a way to capture the artistic conception.

One exclusive master bedroom
In fact, whether a B & B or inn can give people a good impression ultimately depends on the room we stay in. After all, that is where we really stay and rest. The exclusive master bedroom in Boxin makes me feel different VIP treatment.

I live in Sanduo in a single-family courtyard, named after the Naxi Festival Sanduo Festival. The room is very tall. Tell me a few small highlights that surprised me.
1?? Flax slippers and bamboo fiber towels can be taken away home
2?? The wooden comb is a peach comb personally chosen by the founder, Mr. Xiangzi, and can also be taken home.
3?? The weather on the plateau is relatively dry, and there is a humidifier in the room
4?? Towels have a special dryer
5?? Facial cleanser, hand sanitizer, laundry detergent, and body lotion are all available
6?? There is a complete set of tea making tools on the coffee table, which suits the appetite for friends who like to drink tea.

In the elegant Chinese-style room, there was a small design that caught my eyes. It was this bedside lamp. The round fan's shape was retro and elegant, and the girly style came to my face. It matched this gauze curtain so much that I wanted to enter it. It's the same model.

There are two sinks, so that the family can wash their faces and brush their teeth at the same time. There is no need to worry about grabbing the position. The marble back plate instantly improves the style.

The bathroom in the room is relatively open-plan. There is also a small bathtub on the side for those who like to take a bath. It is also equipped with bathtub sets and bath salts on the side, which is very considerate. The towel dryer on the side is really my favorite.

There is also a button next to the bedside table to control the Bluetooth stereo. As soon as you enter the house and plug in the key card, melodious music will be played. I have to say that music really has a kind of magic power, and my tired body instantly relaxed.

Staying in Lijiang is so comfortable that in the past few days, in addition to wandering around the ancient city, I just spend the rest of my time in my room. This is the vacation rhythm of Lijiang!

an ancient city
In September, Lijiang happened to encounter the rainy season, and walking in the ancient city in the drizzle gave a unique taste. In the ancient city, I like to sweep the streets with a camera. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, people are still eating. This is probably the rhythm of Lijiang.

The flowers that can be seen everywhere, although they are not as vigorous as in June, they also decorate the ancient city with a lively color and fragrance. Even in this special 2020, there are many people in the ancient city, probably like me, who like to come to Lijiang to live a slow life of seclusion.

Traveling is not about rushing. Choose a comfortable place in the Ancient City of Lijiang, and watch the flowers bloom and fall in Poxin Yunshe. Time seems to pass very slowly here, and everything you do is slowly and leisurely. It seems to pass quickly and I don't want to be separated from it. So do you like coming to Lijiang for a vacation? What do you like best in Lijiang? Welcome June and express your opinion.

Wandering in the ancient streets and alleys of Lijiang, indulging in revelry in bars, and addicting in a daze under the blue sky is the place to return to yourself.
Nights in Lijiang always make me fascinated.
Sleepless, at night in Lijiang, the brightly lit restaurants in the ancient town are crowded with people. The breeze blows and the coolness bursts. Dayan after night is the most comfortable time, and it is also what Lijiang really looks like.

Walking on the bluestone road, what is different from the previous two years is that the sound of tambourines on the street is no longer heard. You must know that this was the most popular music in Lijiang before. The delicious food of the snacks may be Fan Bingbing's price and Fengjie's taste, but many times it's not about buying anything, but it's probably just about going to the street to watch the trend.

But just this year, Lijiang was caught in flames because of another place. It is the unique cherry blossom restaurant.
It is not so much a restaurant as it is the most popular check-in spot in Lijiang this year. Flowers covered the entire river, and yellow lights lit up at night, making it very petty.

The restaurant has seats for two or four, but even if you don't eat, you can come in and visit at will. The flowers on the outside and the wooden tables and chairs in the room create a natural and elegant environment. The moment the flowers bloom, the beautiful attitude is undoubtedly revealed.

There are many places for Internet celebrities to check in here, almost one scene at a time. I have to sigh that the boss here is really beautiful. He also knows marketing, and this is the only place in the entire ancient town that has the largest number of people, and it is almost so crowded that it is difficult to move at all.

The restaurants in the ancient city are no longer better than the taste, but also the environment. If the restaurant is decorated beautifully, naturally many people will come here because of the photo, but when it comes to taste, I really don't dare to flatter me. I think the restaurants outside the ancient city are better.

After coming out of the Cherry Blossom Restaurant, you can reach Oil-Paper Umbrella Street within a few steps. According to the young lady at the inn, this Oil-Paper Umbrella Street was also recently unveiled. The entire street is covered with Oil-Paper Umbrella, and the surface of the umbrella is outlined. Different patterns are beautiful and vivid under the light. If there is a light rain in Lijiang's unpredictable weather, you can still hide from the rain.

I have walked through Dayan and been to Shuhe, but few people have heard of Baisha. I am not talking about the white sand, but the ancient town of Baisha.

The ancient city of Lijiang consists of three parts: Dayan Ancient Town, Shuhe Ancient Town and Baisha Ancient Town. Many tourists visit the ancient city of Lijiang to visit Dayan Ancient Town. But for those who like tranquility and pristine, Baisha Ancient Town is the best choice.

Why is Dayan no longer the Dayan of those days? It is because more tourists have gone, commercial things have been created, and local residents have evacuated, which has led to the current state. Baisha Ancient Town, on the other hand, is original and undisturbed by others. It is the ancient town with the most Naxi legacy.

Out of my interest in Lijiang Dongba culture, and also out of my desire to contact the more original Naxi ancient villages and the more pure Naxi people, I came to Baisha from Dayan.

Although it is only 10 kilometers away from Dayan, Baisha Ancient Town is obviously much more primitive. The most famous Lijiang Tusi Mu family in Dayan originated in Baisha Ancient Town. The ancient town is located at the foot of the Yulong Snow Mountain. If you look up anywhere in the ancient town, you can see the cold face of the Yulong Snow Mountain.

For the overly popular ancient town of Dayan, Baisha is an extremely quiet corner. There is no hustle and bustle, no drunkenness, walking into Baisha Ancient Town will give people a sense of tranquility. This place has not been developed, and everything remains intact with the simplicity and tranquility of the ancient Naxi people.

The old people sat on the roadside chatting and selling vegetables. They were not so serious when selling vegetables, as if they were just a formality because they relied on their children to basically worry about food and clothing. The town has too little contact with the outside world, and still maintains a lifestyle of farming, weaving and dyeing, and its life is more leisurely than that of Dayan.

Before I came here, I heard that Baisha is most famous for its tie-dyeing. Tie-dyed fabrics can be seen everywhere here and dried outside. The tie-dyeing process belongs to the unique folk cloth dyeing method and drying method. Since many households make a living from this, it constitutes the most beautiful scenery in Baisha Ancient Town.

Tie-dyeing is a traditional and unique dyeing process in China. After twisting the printed fabric into knots, printing and dyeing, and then removing the twisted yarn into knots, various patterns will appear. It is said that when tying each flower, even if there are thousands of flowers, it will not appear in the same way after dyeing. It is a very unique artistic effect.

The tie-dyed patterns are relatively simple and simple, such as butterflies, wintersweet, crabapple, etc.; there are also entire patterns, such as "fish roe" with small white dots,"agate" with slightly larger dots, etc. Now this traditional skill has been included in the national intangible heritage, and several tie-dyeing houses in Baisha Ancient Town have also taken on the mission of inheritance.

The tie dyeing workshop here also has experience activities that allow you to tie-dye a small piece of cloth into shape in a short period of time. However, I went a little late. After the best drying time, I could only take a photo with the dye cloth and chat with the boss.

Most tie-dyeing in Baisha Ancient Town uses isatis root and indigo as dyes. That's right, it is isatis root that is usually used to treat colds. Compared with chemical dyes, these vegetable dyes not only have natural color, never fade, do not damage the fabric, but are durable. More importantly, they have no adverse stimulation to the human body, and can also play an anti-inflammatory and health care effect on the skin. They are very comfortable to wear.

The tie-dyed patterns may seem simple, but in fact they all have beautiful metaphors, such as flowers and snow, rich and prosperous, etc. I asked the boss that pure blue tie-dyed cloth only cost more than 200 yuan. If you want to color it, it will be calculated separately. However, the price of this blue cloth alone is simply the price that a small town like a paradise in the world has!

There are few tourists in the ancient town. Walking on the bluestone slabs, only pieces of cloth dyed with various colors floating in the wind, showing the vitality of the ancient town in the tranquility.
Every time you walk into a dyeing room, it is like entering a tie-dyeing museum. Under the touch of the sun, these colorful fabrics tell the essence of ancient craftsmanship and the history of cloth dyeing skills. The spirit of the craftsman is quietly passed down in the simple town.

The houses in Baisha Ancient Town remain their original appearance, but the inside will be renovated according to the owner's needs. Even if the outside looks dilapidated, many elements representing the Naxi people are still used inside.

Order a cup of homemade yogurt at a cafe on the street (don't ask me why I drink yogurt at a cafe...), look up at the colorful dyed cloth hanging on the mottled walls. The dyed cloth is beating against each other against the wind, and the birds are parked on the beam and humming leisurely. This little noise in the ancient charm is quite exciting. I really don't want to move it once I sit down.

After hearing too many negative cases of being tortured by the Lashi Sea, I finally decided to escape the sea of people in the Lashi Sea and divert to another beautiful and inaccessible lake, Wenhai. This place is like a secret land in Lijiang, with fewer people than Sangushui.

It takes an hour to drive from the ancient city to Wenhai, and you have to cross a mountain during this period, so many of them are chartered, or you can rent a motorcycle to ride here. Of course, I also saw people riding here with my own eyes. Because of the transportation difficulties, people who come to Lijiang rarely visit it and miss the most beautiful sea of flowers in Lijiang.

Wenhai belongs to the Lashihai Plateau Wetland Reserve, but there are much fewer people than Lashihai. It is a seasonal lake on the 3000-meter + Yulong Snow Mountain ridge. Autumn and winter are wet periods, and migratory birds inhabit them. The Yulong Snow Mountain reflects the lake and is as quiet as a fairyland; spring and summer are the dry seasons, with long grass and kites flying, and flowers blooming, as if you are in a sea of flowers.

Everything in Lijiang is closely related to the ancient tea-horse road, as is Wenhai, a natural landscape. This was once one of the main roads of the ancient tea-horse road. Horse gangs often stayed here to keep horses. Nowadays, there are more cattle raised by local residents.

Because of the high altitude, Wenhai's flowering period is only over a month during the year, which is now late spring and early summer. Various flowers bloom all over the mountains and fields, and the Wenhai has become a sea of flowers. Brightly colored clusters of flowers dot the mountains and fields, which are very beautiful. I went coincidentally. The meadow flowers were blooming in June, which was very suitable for taking photos.

There are also a few scattered houses on one side of the meadow. They are empty and quiet, and there are almost no people, so there is no need to worry about looking for the camera angle at all, because no one is blocking any angle!

What is blooming on the meadow today is primroses, one of the eight famous flowers in Yunnan. They are in purple color, which can be seen from afar on the winding mountain road and scattered on the grassland like rosy clouds. After getting out of the car, I stepped on a haystack and cow dung to the lake. I saw primroses closely, and strings of primroses competed to bloom, as if I were cherishing the hard-won spring.

There are flocks of cattle and horses on the grassland. Although flowers bloom in spring and summer, the lake water does not rise, and it is impossible to enjoy the clear water in your eyes. So Wenhai has to come twice, once for flowers and once for blue lake water.

Wenhai is a secret place in Lijiang. It is empty and lonely, and the world is vast. At this moment, the little me is standing on this big earth, and the little me also wants to have a big dream.

If Lijiang is Yunnan's capital of romance, then Dali is the city of healing. I still remember when I was an ignorant girl seven years ago, I came to the ancient city of Dali when I first came to Yunnan. The unique houses of the Bai people and the fragrance of roasted milk fans in the ancient city made me deeply remember this city. After that, after rushing through Dali again, I knew that I would come again.

The ancient city, Cangshan, Erhai Lake, Dali, full of romantic elements, has become my favorite place to stay in Yunnan. Sometimes I don't do anything, but I feel very comfortable just looking at the Erhai Lake.

The ancient city of Dali, located at the foot of the beautiful Cangshan Mountain, was the capital of the ancient Nanzhao Kingdom and Dali Kingdom. The temperature here is suitable, the architectural style is simple, and the roadside is full of red willows and green flowers.

Looking back at this Erhai Lake, probably the most regrettable thing this time is that I didn't meet the Erhai Lake on a sunny day and didn't see the blue surface of the Erhai Lake. Perhaps it was also to make me feel sorry to come again next time.

When it comes to how to play the Erhai Lake, young people's way of playing is of course to rent a sports car and run around the Erhai Lake. The road around the Erhai Lake is very well built and the road conditions are smooth. Even for novice Xiaobai drivers, it is very easy to drive. Especially looking at this cool sports car after another, there are all handsome and beautiful men standing there. No wonder I wonder why there are no young people in the ancient city. It turns out that they are all here.

Many people come to Erhai Lake to take beautiful Internet celebrity photos. In the past two years, photographers have dug a place in Erhai Lake into an Internet celebrity photo site. The painted Luwo Mountain, also known as Cliff Shoal, requires walking down a small mountain road. There are many elements that can be photographed below, including caves and abandoned window frames.

But! When I went there, it happened to be the rainy season in Dali. The water level of the Erhai Lake rose, flooding the road to the "cave". Moreover, when someone made the place popular, countless people came one after another to check in the same photos, so that there were people queuing up beside the window frame, and people kept coming, so they could only take two photos quickly. The experience was not very good.
Later, I only took a few photos by the Erhai Lake, but because the weather was always sunny and cloudy, I could only take two photos in a hurry when the sun was in.

In fact, if you didn't stop to take photos, driving Erhai East Road would be the most comfortable. Driving on this endless coastal highway, the vast sky is a openness that cannot be felt in the city. The breeze blows away my thoughts, but it makes me enjoy the present moment more.

Leaving Dali is not the end, but the beginning. The next time I hope to see Dali on a sunny day.

In every city you visit in China, there must be a temple. Whether it is a large developed city or a small village in the outer suburbs, there is at least one temple for people to come to pray for blessings. In everyone's knowledge, temples are full of incense and solemn, but on the Cangshan Mountain in Dali, Yunnan, there is a very interesting temple. No one burns incense in this temple and is spotless, but it is unexpectedly decorated with many different kinds of flowers, and even specially designed the way these colorful potted plants are placed.

This romantic temple is Jizhao Temple in Dali, Yunnan Province. It is more like a garden than a temple. Although the place is not large, it is full of flowers everywhere. Whether it is on the roadside or under the beams, it is full of flowers of various colors and fleshy meat. If it were not for the worship of Bodhisattva and Buddha, they might really think that they are in a garden rather than a temple. Jizhao Nunnery is known as the most literary nunnery in China. It does not have the solemnity of ordinary temples, nor is it filled with incense. It is more like a courtyard where you can play with flowers and plants at will.

Jizhao Temple was built in the early Ming Dynasty. After it was destroyed, it was rebuilt during the Republic of China. Various plants are planted around the temple, and there is fresh and elegant air everywhere. In Jizhao Nunan, in addition to flowers, one obvious feature can also be found, that is, there are a lot of succulent plants raised here. Among the temples, succulent plants account for the most. Because of its excellent geographical location, it can receive sufficient sunshine. However, Yunnan's climate with a large temperature difference between morning and evening provides a better growth environment for fleshy meat, so the fleshy meat in Jizhao An grows plump and healthy.

It is said that there are more than 200 kinds of succulents in Jizhao Nunan, and each type, size, color, and shape is different. It is like visiting a succulent plant expo. There are all kinds of succulent potted plants on the ground, and on the hanging beams are potted flowers from Yunnan in the season. Many tourists go to Jizhao Nunnery to see these flowers and succulent plants. You must know that this nunnery is located halfway up the mountain. On top of the mountain, future generations will have to walk a long way to drive it up. Even if it is troublesome, there is still an endless stream of tourists coming to enjoy the flowers.

Since there is no incense, the air and environment here are very good. The entire temple is spotless and very clean, but it does not lose the solemnity and elegance of the temple. Towering ancient trees, flowers and plants can be seen everywhere, and full of greenery. People call this the most beautiful and romantic temple in China. Perhaps many people will ask, why are there no scenes here of burning incense, worshipping gods, and the prosperity of incense that other temples have?

Jizhao Nunnery is actually a nunnery. The master inside once said that the Buddha lacked nothing. He cared not about incense, but about his pious heart. Therefore, he did not practice or respect Buddha on weekdays, so he naturally did not burn incense. However, for tourists coming from afar, there is a house in Jizhao Nunnery that is also specially used for burning incense. If there are tourists who want to burn incense, they can go to the house to burn incense and worship Buddha. However, groups of burning incense are not encouraged. It is no wonder that Jizhao Nunnery is so clean.

In addition, because the temple is in the mountains, there are a large number of plants around and in the temple, and there are also forests nearby. Burning incense can cause fires or cause mountain fires, which is very dangerous, so it is not suitable for burning incense. Surprisingly, the construction and design of the houses in Jizhao Nunnery were all done by the nuns in the temple. They picked up stones and wood everywhere to build houses one after another, using all natural materials, or some old things, so the nunnery is so full of time.

The flowers and trees you see in Jizhao Nunnery are not achieved overnight. They are all planted and raised bit by bit over the years. After decades of cultivation, the temple environment that we have today's garden-like temple environment. It seems so vibrant on Cangshan Mountain. Flowers, which were originally planted just for the preference of nuns, have now attracted a large number of tourists. They not only pay homage, but also come to see this special nunnery in Yunnan. Some girls still want to stay in the temple after checking in. Life.

Not only can you enjoy flowers at Jizhao Nunan, but the vegetarian food here is also a unique one. Many people come to Jizhao Nunan for the buffet vegetarian meal at 20 yuan per person in the temple. Although it is similar to home-cooked food, it is very particular in the choice of ingredients. It also advocates less salt and less oil in terms of seasoning, and does not add seasonings such as MSG, so you can taste the original flavor of these ingredients. Without the heavy seasonings, but without losing the characteristics of this vegetarian meal, hundreds of people come in line to eat vegetarian meal every day.

Morning ~ Dali! I traveled thousands of kilometers just to meet again at this moment. This time I came to Dali and I had visited all the attractions I needed to visit. I planned to slow down my pace, choose a B & B, take photos, lie down and stare blankly, and enjoy Dali. Slow life. Boxin Yunshe, which I had previously stayed in Lijiang, also had a store in Dali. I decisively chose to walk outside the ancient city gate and within a 5-minute walk.

When I walked into Poxin Yunshe, the scene in front of me seemed to be in another world. The huge kissing pool is located in the center of the yard. Compared with the one in Lijiang, I felt that the kissing pool in Dali was bigger, more classical, and sparkling. Reflecting the sky, the greener one in the middle is the swimming pool. Although it seems to be connected on the surface, the two pools are actually completely independent, and it is particularly beautiful to take pictures from this angle.

Like Lijiang, Boxin Yunshe in Dali also adheres to the concept of "big". The public space is directly opened to the second floor. You can say that it is like a tea room, a restaurant, and a cafe, but you never would have imagined that this is the front desk of the courtyard. In order to make us feel more at home here, there are no pos machines and other things like the regular front desk. When we enter the door, we will have a cup of tea first and listen to my little sister sweetly call me little sister. Warm service can be enjoyed from the moment we enter the door.

Sitting on the sofa in the front hall and looking at the pattering light rain outside the window, although he couldn't go out to play, staying at Boxin's home gave him a different flavor. The elegant Chinese style is full of various photo elements everywhere. If you can't go out, just take photos in the courtyard.

If necessary, you can also ask the little lady to make a cup of coffee and taste the unique and lazy taste of Dali while enjoying the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

The young lady who pulled the flowers was so skillful. Not only could she pull out the four words "Bo Xin Yun She," she also painted the courtyard on the coffee. After taking photos for a long time, she couldn't bear to drink it.

The young lady who took the photo said, my clothes match this pillow very well. Maybe this is fate!

Because I have stayed in Boxin Yunshe in Lijiang, I also know that every guest has their own exclusive suite. In Dali, I stayed in Cangshan Room. Just hearing the name makes me look forward to it. The moment I opened the door, I was amazed on the spot. It really has local characteristics!

Each room in Boxin's Home has a different theme, and each room will have its own unique design according to its own theme. For example, the Cangshan Room where I stayed was covered with many stones on the floor to reflect the characteristics of Cangshan. Characteristics, the line of the door frame is like the shape of a mountain range, and the ancient room is a relaxing corner.

Boxin's bedding is also very careful. Simmons mattresses and latex pillows will automatically close when you press the switch. No matter how tired your body is, you can have a good night's sleep here.

Because the climate of the ancient city is relatively dry, the room is carefully equipped with a humidifier to keep my skin dry.

The tea-making equipment in the room is also very professional. People who like to drink tea can still sit by the bedside, look at the Cangshan and white clouds outside, and sip tea and relax.

Whether it is in terms of design materials or various small objects, the rooms of Boxin Yunshe integrate Dali's national culture and folk customs. They are unique. From the moment you live in, you can feel the unique atmosphere of Dali.
Similarly, the bamboo fiber towels, linen slippers and mahogany combs in the room can be taken home, which is also to take home my memories of Poxin Yunshe.

After resting in the room, I went to the patio in the courtyard. The terrace in Boxin Dali's house is much larger than Lijiang, and there are two more, filled with flowers and plants, just like a small garden. And what's even more beautiful is that behind it are clouds of clouds and snowy mountains. The vast scene made me unable to help but start shooting.

Yunshe's public space is also very functional. It has both a tea room and an open kitchen. If a family comes over and wants to cook something by themselves, it is no problem.

After night, Poxin Yunshe has a different tranquility. The lanterns in the courtyard are on, and the light and shadow are reflected on the swimming pool. It is very beautiful. In the front hall, there are old people playing cards and chatting, and some people are drinking wine under the shade of the trees. Indulge in Dali at night, leaving the troubles behind, so it is not easy to say how comfortable it is.

I was awakened by birds in the early morning, the rain in Dali stopped, and I could still see a looming corner of Cangshan outside the window.
Come downstairs and have breakfast. You can taste all kinds of Dali cuisine at breakfast. Dali's specialty thin bean flour is the most famous breakfast in the local area. When eating thin bean flour, you must have a fritter. You must cut it into sections and mix it with the thin bean flour. It is simply too delicious! I promise you will love it.

Rice noodles are a must-order food for breakfast in Yunnan. It is said that Yunnan's morning starts with a bowl of rice noodles, minced meat and green vegetables, dotted with a piece of tomato, which is Yunnan on the tip of the tongue.

Of course, when I came to Dali, I couldn't miss bait nuggets, milk fans and Xizhou cakes. These characteristic Yunnan delicacies made me eat breakfast like brunch.

Dali Chapter-Nice to meet you, little fairy
I was waiting for sunset in Dali at night. I couldn't wait for it, so a friend recommended me to eat a new Yunnan cuisine. I met you, little fairy. Outside the ancient city, I saw the brightly lit storefront from afar. When I came closer, it was quite lively. There were many pairs to eat.

The store's signature is steam pot chicken. It is said that it does not add a drop of water. The three people also ordered thin bean flour, fresh boletus with double pepper, mini tofu, yak meat, wooden barrel rice, black pepper mountain pork chops and little fairy white fungus soup.

① Steaming pot chicken is eaten for two chickens. Soup is the highlight. It is called a fresh dish. It is either the kind of seasoning fresh, or the delicious flavor of stewed chicken. Drinking a few bowls is good for your body.

② Boltus is another brand in the store. In a few days, the boltus will be gone. You have to choose the right day. It is delicious and worth a try.

③ Eat the mini tofu while it is hot. My favorite. It's burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.

④ Thin bean flour is a specialty of Yunnan. Thick soybean flour can be added with spicy food, green onions and dried fish according to your own taste.

③ Bamboo tube rice, traditional glutinous rice, the moment the bamboo is opened, the aroma overflows

④ Yak meat and mountain pork chops are tender and tender. They look full of peppers but are actually not spicy.

The Little Fairy Restaurant, which focuses on the theme of love, has a very romantic environment and an interactive love certificate to play with ~ It is very suitable for couples to come, and of course, friends can also gather.

Lijiang Chapter-Erge Rice Noodles
Push the wall! Probably the best food I have eaten in the ancient city! Must-order the signature rice noodles with chicken sauce. The local chicken series is the signature. It uses black-bone chicken as the raw material and is very particular. The soup base is naturally delicious, and the rice noodles are smooth and smooth.

Whether it's time for meal or not, the restaurant is full of people. I went there after three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was also full of friends. It was amazing that I was so popular. The window is semi-open. Sitting by the window with my rice noodle in hand, looking at the people coming and going outside, life in the ancient town is really comfortable and nourishing.

Ancient City-Prince of Western Yunnan
This is a bit of a thunder shop. Although a certain review has a high rating, most of the reviews given by Gucheng Restaurant cannot be trusted. The store is decorated in a Naxi style, and the waiters are also wearing national costumes.

The two of us ordered three-course meals, which were both the specialty dishes in the store. Roasted beef tenderloin wrapped in lotus leaves, Dai pilaf rice, and some mutton. The overall taste was average and not as amazing as the reviews stated.

I ordered another cup of drink and made Luda. This was really a mistake. It was just adding a little bread on top of coconut milk. I'm sorry for the price.

Lijiang, it is said that it will be sunny and rainy. I went to the airport in the early morning and it started to rain. I probably couldn't bear to let me go. Wandering around the airport, I refused to enter the terminal just to deeply engrave the mountains of Lijiang into my mind again.

I once dreamed of walking the world with a sword,
Take a look at the prosperity of the world.

Lijiang and Dali are distant places that I have not forgotten.
Maybe at some point in the future, I really want to come back here again and live a slow life in the distance.
