Dreams must be there, in case they come true one day!

The beautiful dream of the South of Caiyun has always existed. Last year, I bought a round-trip ticket to Kunming but was unable to make it due to various reasons. This year, I flew directly to Lijiang.

In 7 days, we will fly directly to Lijiang. The itinerary is preset: Xi'an-Dayan-Dali-Shuanglang-Dayan-Lugu Lake-Shuhe-Xi'an. The final cost was roughly 3200 yuan.

Due to the itinerary setting, I arrived in Lijiang three times, stayed in Dayan Ancient City for two nights and stayed in Shuhe Ancient Town for one night. Therefore, the travel notes will be divided into five chapters: "Da Yan Chapter","Dali Chapter","Shuanglang Chapter","Lugu Lake Chapter" and "Shuhe Chapter".

Chapter 1: Dayan Ancient City

Before departure, the ancient capital of Xi'an had been rainy and rainy for a week. The cloudy weather caused the body to become moldy. So on the bus from Lijiang Airport to Dayan Ancient City, when I saw the dazzling sunshine, I couldn't help but cheer, and my trip to Yunnan alone had officially begun!

Because the train leaving early the next morning was going to Dali, the accommodation for the first day was outside the south gate of the ancient city. On the map, it was slightly closer to the train station. After I found the inn and cleaned it up, I took my "lonely planet" and entered from the south gate of the ancient city and started wandering. The so-called ancient city of Lijiang is actually the ancient city of Dayan, a city of romantic encounters in the public sense. I found Sifang Street, Dashiqiao Bridge, Xiaoqiao Bridge, Bar Street...

During the day, the bar was cold and clear, with almost no customers. The singer was playing and singing. If he had the time and leisure, he would order a cup of coffee or juice, sit by the window and listen to folk songs and watch the small bridge and flowing water outside the window. Occasionally tourists come and go, but it would be comfortable and lazy...

What is most lacking in the ancient city is beautiful women. There are many people selling such perforated original discs, and every house is filled with beautiful women with quite a sense of camera playing the drums, and the same song "A Moment" is playing.

The colorful braids cost 6 pieces for 10 yuan. When I returned to the University for the second time, I made 6 pieces with Xiaomeng, although they were removed the next day.

Accompanied by the cold wind, I climbed halfway up the hillside to take the night view of the ancient city. As a result, the scenery was not as beautiful as I imagined and there were no foot stands, so I took two photos.

Instead of going to the crowded bar street, I found a relatively quiet bar called "I'm Waiting for You in Lijiang", tasted the scenery, listened to the singing and singing of the band singers, and experienced the night in Lijiang. It's just that all the people who have sex with are beautiful women... O(④_④)O haha ~(Half a dozen bottles of alcohol costs 240 yuan, which shouldn't be cheap...)

Heilongtan Park is a small park not far from the ancient city. It can be reached by bus. It should be a place where groups of tourists will go, so I suggest you not to go.

The entire Dayan Ancient City stayed there on the first day of arrival and on the fourth day when I came back from Shuanglang. It was indeed only because of direct flights and transfers to other places. It was indeed as said on the Internet, it was highly commercial. It was hard to imagine what it was like during the peak tourist season!

Chapter 2: The Ancient City of Dali

Because it was a direct flight to Lijiang, and then planned to go to Dali and Lugu Lake, one to the south and the other to the north, it felt like Lijiang was a bit of a turning back road, but it was actually okay. The train from Lijiang to Dali only took two hours. After getting off the train, Bus No. 8 goes directly to the north gate of Dali Ancient City and gets off at the entrance of Fenghuaxue Hotel. 40 minutes.

"Shangguan flowers, Xiguan wind, Xiguan wind blows Shangguan flowers; Cangshan snow, Erhai moon, Erhai moon shines on Cangshan snow." To experience the scenery of Dali, the first stop is to visit Cangshan Mountain.

I chose the Gantong cableway. Fortunately, I had friends I met at the Youth Travel Service, and the highest part of the cableway was scared. You can see the panoramic view of the entire ancient city of Dali and the Erhai Lake on the cableway.

I used to read "Princess Huanzhu" that Dali is a place where every household has water and flowers. I wondered how beautiful it would be. Sure enough, this place did not disappoint.

The ancient city of Dali is more elegant and simple than the university in Lijiang, and the prices are easier to accept. I met Lin Hua, a classmate from Jiangxi, here. I quit my job and left immediately, and stayed with you all the way.

Chapter 3: Shuanglang·Erhai Lake

In Shuanglang, you can visit inns. There are all kinds of literary and unique inns. You can visit and take photos for free without checking in. However, the cafe in the inn is not open to the public, which is confusing.

The white tables of life in Haiti attract large numbers of tourists, and we also pose for photos in various ways.

Rent an electric car from Shuanglang and ride it to dig color and watch the sunset. Xiao Meng and I wanted to ride ourselves, but after trying a few times, we gave up and let the boy be the driver. The three boys worked hard, and the driver worked part-time as a photographer. O(∩_∩)O~

Beautiful sunset and sunset by Erhai Lake

It takes long stairs to reach it. There are green grass and red flowers on both sides.

They have been playing and singing "Zebra Zebra". This dog is called Winter Melon, and the black one behind it is ugly. The ugly one will wag its tail to the rhythm of the music.

The weather was bad on the day I was leaving and there was no sunshine, so I couldn't see the blue sky, white clouds and the blue Erhai Lake.

Shuanglang is a beautiful place, and Shuhe, which will be written later, is the warmest, warm place for me to take beautiful photos in my entire trip.

Living in the same room as Xiaomeng and Yingying here, and watching the two of them lying in bed discussing, it feels like they are back in college;

There were also six people like Lao Ge Lin Hua Terry who were wandering around in the town inn to take photos. They lived in Haiti and watched tourists posing in front of the white table. Then the three girls discussed why we didn't take a good picture just now and would take it again later.

Cycling to dig colors to watch the sunset, but on the way back, I lost something for the first time-a hat. Brother Lao went back and searched for it for a long time without success, but while we were waiting, we took various photos on the road, and Yingying learned to ride an electric bike...

Chapter 4: Lugu Lake

The process of arriving was difficult. Starting from Lijiang, we got on the bus at 6:30 in the morning and took 8 hours to make the winding mountain road. However, it was precisely because the journey to arrive was too difficult that we were able to stop some tourists, allowing this daughter country of the Mosuo tribe to preserve her mystery and tranquility.

It rained all the time on the day of her arrival. There were not many tourists. Because of the light rain, she made her more peaceful and peaceful.

We live in Ligg Village, which is within walking distance of the observation deck on Ligg Peninsula, and opposite the Ligg Peninsula

Also because of the rainy weather, the black and white pig trough boat photographed was quite impressive.

The mountain is full of fog, and I feel like I live in a fairyland surrounded by clouds and mist.

On the Rigg Peninsula, the camera is not wide enough to capture two hearts completely.

The two trees, one high and the other low, are lover trees, the same height, but the one bald one is a sister tree.

This 300-meter-long bridge was built to make it easier for men and women to get married in the two places.

Mysterious blue Lugu Lake on sunny days.

From left to right, there are lush green, daughter-in-law, I, Xiaomeng, Lin Hua, and Lao Brother.

When I returned to the inn after dinner in the evening, I suddenly saw stars in the sky. Xiao Meng and I were as excited as children. Brother Lao and Lin Hua were smiling silently behind us, but we were still very happy. We ran back to the inn and asked our daughter-in-law to take a photo of the stars and the Milky Way! It's just that the shooting technology is still not in place. After consulting the master, I still can't shoot it. It's just that night in Lugu Lake, the sky was filled with stars, and how could I forget the laughter of the three girls as happy as children?

Chapter 5: Shuhe Ancient Town

After returning to Lijiang from Lugu Lake, Lao Ge Linhua's journey ended. Cang Cong and his daughter-in-law were going to Dali, so after the last meal, we said goodbye, leaving Xiao Meng and I straight to Shuhe.

Every inn in Shuanglang has various characteristics, and every inn in Shuhe is eye-catching.

The play between the two girls was all kinds of patting.

From the day I arrived in Lijiang, I saw all kinds of fruits sold on the street, especially purple-black grapes, and finally ate them before I left. It's really sweet.

This store is called Paradise Time. Shuhe's favorite. I will stay here next time. At first glance, the boss is a master-level figure with a history of vicissitudes and a story. He is from Gansu. He is the kind of person who never leaves after arriving. He opened this store, and there are also two companies in Xizang. The whole is a big bookstore, which also sells dishes from his pottery back in various countries and postcards made from his own photos.

Originally, I just went in for a casual stroll, but after sitting for an hour, I really liked it so much that I bought postcards, DVDs, and asked the boss to help take photos. Little dream and I.

Many travelers recommended this restaurant as the first choice, which is about 500 meters away from the hotel where we stayed. It is in the ancient town of Shuhe. Along the way, we found that his family has the best business. We started waiting for a seat not long after we sat down. There was a singer singing next to it, and the environment and atmosphere were very good. The first dish was Baoji tofu. The strong aroma immediately aroused my appetite. I didn't say anything and started eating. The small pot of rice and fragrant cured pork ribs are a must and should not be missed!

Shuhe Ancient Town is the last stop on the whole journey. It is highly recommended by many people who like it, so I trust everyone's recommendations. It was the last day, and it was planned to be a relaxing and shopping day. As a result, there was no way to stop because of all kinds of beautiful scenery and small shops. Shuhe is much smaller than Dayan, much quieter, and more literary and artistic. While sitting in heaven, I was thinking that if I were unhappy one day in the future, I would carry a bag and come here to live quickly without worries.

Summary: I remember how Yunnan was described in Lonely Planet. It was said that God had come here and saw such a beautiful fairyland. Then he had to change places to live with the Yunnan people, telling the Yunnan people that they came from heaven and where God lived. As a result, the Yunnan people only realized that they had been deceived after they changed. Because Yunnan is the place where the real gods live...

Yes, Yunnan is so beautiful. Even though people in online books are telling how commercial and boring Lijiang Dali is, because I set foot on Yunnan for the first time, I still chose the regular route, Lijiang-Dali, with Lugu Lake added.

Two days ago, I watched Hao Yun's song "Go to Dali" in Huang Bo and Xu Zheng's new movie "Heart Flowers on the Road". I missed my trip to Yunnan and my friends. I took advantage of the holidays to sort out the photos and the entire itinerary...

And Yunnan, this time is just the beginning...
