Lijiang ancient city

I have been mentally deranged for a week, and the most exciting one in Lijiang is actually the one that makes me most discouraged...

In fact, there is nothing wrong with the ancient city of Lijiang. Perhaps the expectations were too high, so it was a little disappointed.

But many people still like Lijiang, or why are all people we see there??

After having a delicious tea and egg breakfast in the morning, I bought a minibus to Lijiang (50 yuan/person) at a coach service point in the ancient city of Dali and took the bus to Lijiang at around 9 o'clock.

There is also a bus Yutong to Lijiang, which is slightly more than ten yuan, with divided flights, and a luxury bus of 70 yuan. In fact, the time is the same, but the comfort level is different. Taking a luxury bus may not be so bumpy because there are many mountain roads. But these buses all have flights, unlike the CMB, which runs every half hour, which is very convenient.

Besides... I like the CMB that can open windows... so I have no regrets at all.

The scenery on the way was very beautiful, and we cried out in amazement... It really felt like a country bumpkin entering the city...

Sitting next to me was an Argentine woman who seemed a little older than me. She had been listening to music in the first half of the time. Later, I handed her the fruit to eat. She politely thanked her and chatted for a while.

She said that she could only speak a small part of English and had no problems with listening, but her mother tongue was Spanish, so it was a little difficult for us to chat. She often explained it to me, explaining English in Spanish...

She is a doctor. She is taking more than a month's vacation this time and comes to China to play alone! No Chinese, a little English!! Come here alone!!! Strong!!

When she told her good friends about this, her friends all said, Are you crazy? You ran to such a strange country alone and you still can't speak the language!

Then she was a little shy and took a book of suggestions for Chinese translations and showed it to me. It was written a similar transliteration of Spanish...

It turns out that not only Chinese people use Chinese to mark English pronunciation... Foreigners are also very helpless about Chinese...

She has gone to Xi'an, Beijing, and Shanghai. After playing from Yunnan, she has gone to Guilin, then Hong Kong, and then back.

Two backpacks, one big and one small. Said to go to Lijiang Station and take a bus directly to Qiaotou and hike the Tiger Leaping Gorge...

Really good physical strength…

Without her sitting at the window, I had no chance to take pictures of the scenery along the way...

The road to Lijiang also passes through the military exercise site. The sandstorms raised by the multiple tanks during the exercise are spectacular! That's called glory!

Go to Lijiang Station and say goodbye to her.

We took the No. 11 bus to Gucheng, which took about 20 minutes.

The Ancient City of Lijiang, also known as Dayan Ancient City, was built in the late Southern Song Dynasty and has a history of about 800 years. It is an ancient city that is very complete and even slightly overdeveloped.

The first task when going to the ancient city was to find an inn and unload your luggage.

So we were dragged into their inn by a girl. She said she was born in the 1990s and was a little ashamed... Maybe her skin was dark and she looked relatively mature. She kept teasing me and asked me to stay in Lijiang to marry her...

How can I marry a girl...

And... do I smell like a man???

In order to save time, we agreed to stay in this house. It was very ordinary and it was off-season, so we cut it to 80 yuan...

To solve people's livelihood problems, it was already two o'clock in the ancient city of Lijiang, and my stomach had long been growling. I heard that the food in the ancient city was not authentic and expensive, so we went to the outside to take a look. There were not many restaurants, all of which were Sichuan-style. Ah...

And THEN we started our journey to the ancient city...

Services:

We never saw the owner of the inn, and the little beauty was a little aloof when booking the room. Maybe it really is like the name of the inn, where the owner and employees are relatively lazy and leisurely.

Appearance:

The courtyard is harmonious and beautiful, and the entire inn is lovable in shape.

The decoration is very detailed. It smells a little.

Transportation and surrounding environment:

In Dayan Ancient City, it only takes a minute to get out of trouble, but because the alley is not big, not many people pass by, and there are no bars around, but you can hear the sound of subwoofers when you sleep at night. A little upset.

Guest Rooms:

It is relatively old, a little crude, and the light is average.

There are also tatami on the second floor of this inn, but on the wooden floor, it is recommended not to sleep on tatami, as it will be a little damp. Even though our room was a normal one, it felt a little moist. I don't like this very much.

Public areas:

There are two swings, several wooden tables and chairs. If the weather is fine, sit down on the wooden chairs in the courtyard, bask in the sun, chat, and eat chicken feet. It's very free-flowing.

Shuhe ancient town

Dayan Ancient City is about five or six kilometers away from Shuhe Ancient Town. There is a bus to Shuhe outside Lijiang Ancient City. (I actually forgot a few ways... Khan)

After studying in the university, I yearned for the legendary clean Shuhe.

Many people entered the gate and walked around, but they were all very disappointed. Sister Fen and Sister Min had returned in less than an hour.

The two of us were left thinking about walking around Shuhe again and buying some handwritten letters.

The first section was full of storefronts, which was not much different from Dayan.

In fact, Shuhe River is quite big... but we walked to small shops and didn't see anything we were looking forward to, so we wanted to return home.

I was about to go back when I met Dahua Xiaohua...

Expressing their disappointment, they then suggested that we go to Lower Harry Valley, saying that there weren't many shops open there yet and there were fewer people, so it would be better...

So we decided to go to Shuhe again after five o'clock!

It's a long way to walk from the entrance to Harry Valley. If you keep walking, it will take you twenty minutes...

Sure enough, Harry Valley is relatively deserted and less noisy from outside...

More peaceful and more beautiful..

It feels like a lifetime ago...

Let the photos speak for themselves.

Then we saw a road with blue sky and white clouds...

This was the flower's favorite place that day...

And my soul stays in the section before this sandstorm road...

After waiting for the bus for half an hour, after getting on it, I found that it was not the same route I came from, and I had to change buses...

And we sat for an hour...

But this is a paragraph I like very much...

We were all very hungry... because we had the bowl of dessert at noon... We took out the wafer cakes we disliked and ate them. The day began to get cold, and the flower gave me half of her scarf.

Many local people in Shuhe lead horses and can ride around the ancient town for fifty yuan...

Fifteen yuan or ten yuan to take a photo...

I saw the bearded calligrapher... Later he found out that I had taken pictures... A little angry...

Sorry...

I was a little excited to see prayer flags for the first time in Yunnan...

For lunch, we had Shuhe's famous small pot rice. The small pot rice was stewed. It was super fragrant, very comfortable to eat, and the portions were very sufficient. One serving was enough for two people. Steamed chicken, a specialty of Yunnan. The soup was super delicious and delicious. The steamed tofu was very nice, tender and very comfortable to eat. There was also Naxi grilled fish, which was very fragrant, and the watery poplar flowers. The name sounded scary but quite delicious. The local specialty vegetables are very worth a try!

Then we saw a big dog...

Ignorant, we thought it was a Tibetan mastiff... and then thought it was not fierce at all, so we ran to ask the owner.

This is: Caucasus!!!

When I saw the sculpture at the door, a soldier holding a sword, I ran over and made a stab...

A man floated behind him and said: Should I?

So I invited him to demonstrate…

You are really more capable than me...

The woman behind him smiled happily...

The more we walked, the more and more deviated... We couldn't find the way back, so we asked our friends, and they said that there was a bus that way...
