I finally waited for you

I was used to having a backpack and a SLR, and I was shuttling through the crowd alone

One person climbed the towering Mount Tai, one person wandered in the brightly lit Wuzhen, one person climbed over the picturesque Huangshan Mountain, and one person wandered alone in Zhangjiajie with beautiful mountains and rivers; there was also the ancient Huashan Road, the 3D three-dimensional city Chongqing, the crowded Shanghai Bund, the historical Xi'an; the hustle and bustle of Beijing, the ease of Chengdu, the cold of Harbin, and the outstanding people of Lijiang; The endless mountains in Lushan Mountain, the crystal clear water of Lugu Lake, the arrogant monkeys of Emei and the endless roads of Fenghuang Ancient Town.

A person's travel is free and chic, but it is also lonely and silent.

In the end, the trip for one person was over and the honeymoon for two people was ushered in.

I have been to basically all the itinerary and cities this time, so if I go again, I can avoid many unnecessary traps.

Xi'an

Xi'an is one of the four ancient capitals of China. This is not the first time I have come to Xi'an. The last trip to Huashan can still be remembered in my mind. Xi'an is a city that combines history and food. Xi'an is not very far from Huashan. There is a direct high-speed train to ride. It is a good choice to go while you have the courage to go to Huashan. This time, I just visited Xi'an and vetoed the trip to Huashan because someone was afraid of heights.

the first day

The first day was to fly to Xi'an from Dalian at night. The flight was from 21:50 to 00:15. The ticket price at night was still relatively friendly to the people. You can travel directly when you get up the next morning. Xi'an Airport has a bus to the city. The bus lasts until the last flight, so you don't have to worry about not having a car to go to the city. Xi'an Airport is relatively far away from the city and takes about an hour.

In addition, this is the third time I have come to Xi'an. Regarding accommodation in Xi'an, it is recommended to live inside the city wall. It can be near the Bell and Drum Tower or near the city wall. There are also many hotels and many choices. It is convenient to go anywhere.

If you just come to Xi'an alone to visit, you can visit most of them in about three or four days. On the first day, you can visit the scenic spots inside the city wall, including Bell and Drum Tower, Hui Street, Xi'an City Wall, Shuyuan Gate, Yongxing Square, etc.; on the second day, you can go to the distant Terracotta Warriors, Huaqing Pond, and come back at night to go to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the city that never sleeps in the Tang Dynasty; on the third day, you can arrange to go to Huashan on a single day to experience the Huashan Sword Discussion.

We are planning to spend two days in Xi'an. We will arrive on the evening of the first day and fly directly from Xi'an to Lijiang on the morning of the fourth day. The two-day schedule was relatively loose. I just wanted to stroll around the ancient city casually. I didn't go to Huashan nor the Terracotta Warriors. Xi'an's daytime is antique, and when the lights come on at night, the Chinese flavor of Xi'an is even more highlighted. Two nights, one day was arranged in the Xi'an City Wall, and the other night was arranged in the Tang Dynasty City that never sleeps.

the next day

Because some friends were coming to Xi'an to meet us and play together for two days, we planned that they would take the airport bus to the Bell and Drum Tower around noon, so we arranged to go to the Little Wild Goose Pagoda in the morning.

Today's specific itinerary is the Little Wild Goose Pagoda in the morning, the Bell and Drum Tower at noon, and meals on Hui Street. In the afternoon, reservations at the Shaanxi History Museum (free tickets can be booked on the Weixin Official Accounts. The ticketing system of the Shaanxi History Museum can also queue up to collect free tickets if you go directly, but it depends on the passenger flow of the day, so it is necessary to book in advance). In the evening, we will go straight to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and the Tang Dynasty Sleepless City (the Tang Dynasty Sleepless City is near the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square)

No tickets are charged for the Little Wild Goose Pagoda. If you get a free ticket for your ID card, you can enter the park directly. The Little Wild Goose Pagoda is outside the city wall and you can either take a bus or ride a bicycle. Dalian is a city where bicycles are rarely used, so we chose to go there by bike.

Although it is off-season, today is Saturday and there are still many people. It took more than half an hour to change tickets and queue up to enter the gate. There are mainly tourist groups who come here. After all, they don't spend money. Moreover, there is a foreign tour group. Xi'an is still relatively cool at the end of October, but as foreigners, especially from Europe and the United States, this is not the first time I have encountered a combination of wearing shorts and down jackets.

The Little Wild Goose Pagoda is inside Jianfu Temple. Jianfu Temple is like a park. The overall scale is not small. You can play in it for 1-2 hours. There is a museum inside that you can take a look. The weather in Xi'an in September and March and April is still very good. The temperature is just right, not as hot as summer, so it is suitable for a walk.

There weren't many exhibits in the museum. We also arranged to go to the Shaanxi History Museum in the afternoon, so we just took a stroll around this place. Seeing that it was almost time, we walked back to meet our friends at the Bell and Drum Tower.

The ticket for the Bell and Drum Tower is 50 yuan per person. Although there is nothing to see inside, as the center of Xi'an, it is still necessary to take a look at the landmark building. Go to the Bell Tower first, and then to the Drum Tower. Below the Drum Tower is Hui Street.

After the Bell and Drum Tower is a paradise for foodies. Huimin Street, as the most famous commercial street in Xi'an, can be said that Huimin Street has no off-season seasons, only peak seasons. Every time it comes, it is crowded with people. As the characteristics of Xi'an, cold rice noodles, biangbiang noodles, roujiamo, mutton steamed buns, etc. can be enjoyed by foodies.

There is also a specialty drink in Xi'an, Bingfeng.

We didn't try mutton steamed buns. I tried it once when I first came to Xi'an. The taste might not be acceptable to a Northeastern.

I am not a real foodie, so all the photos were stolen from my daughter-in-law's mobile phone. The crowd of people on Hui Street had to make me put the camera in my bag obediently.

After eating and drinking on Huimin Street, we still chose to ride to the Shaanxi History Museum. The distance was still relatively long. As a person living in Dalian who has no non-motor vehicle lanes, it is still unique to compete with motor vehicles on the crowded road while riding a bicycle.

The Shaanxi History Museum is quite good and worth a visit. It is said that when you go to a city and want to understand a city, you must first visit its history museum. As Xi'an, which has a long history, the Shaanxi History Expo has relatively rich exhibits. You must go to the South Gate when you go.

I couldn't go to the Mausoleum of the Qin Emperor of Qin, so I just had a look at the Terracotta Warriors in this museum. Most people who don't know much about cultural relics cannot understand the historical value of these things without explanation. If you go to the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, it is still necessary to hire a guide, or you can visit... So is museums. After all, there are tourist groups.

This is the legendary tiger talisman used to mobilize troops.

The backflow pot is a wonderful flower among our ancient ceramic art.

This pot reverses the traditional method of injecting water on the top of the pot. Instead, the pot is inverted, water is poured into the pot from the bottom, and then poured out. Therefore, it is called the "reverse flow pot."

There is a video explanation in the museum materials that clearly explains the principle of the backflow pot.

The Shaanxi History Museum has made us quite tiring to play, mainly because of cycling. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is relatively close to the Shaanxi History Museum and can be reached within a short walk. The music fountain in Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square is said to be the largest music fountain in China. I saw it once the first time, and the effect was okay.

As night falls, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square also welcomes its peak.

We had a make do for dinner at the food street in the North Square. Xi'an was full of pasta food.

Directly opposite the North Square of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is the Tang Dynasty Sleepless City. Recently, the Tang Dynasty Sleepless City was also popular on the Internet.

The sculpture of Xuanzang on the north square of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is also called Master Sanzang, who is commonly known as the Tang Priest. In order to explore the differences in the doctrines of various Buddhist sects, Xuanzang traveled 50,000 miles west alone in the first year of Zhenguan and went through hardships to Nalantuo Temple, the center of Indian Buddhism, to retrieve the true scriptures. This is also the prototype character in the novel Journey to the West.

Looking back from the Sleepless City of the Tang Dynasty, you can see the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. The surrounding lights and glass set off the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is very beautiful.

Tang Dynasty's Sleepless City is still very beautiful. It has a Chinese flavor at night against the lights. There are many people. The whole street is very long. It can take about an hour to stroll around.

It was a performance that had been popular online for a while, but unfortunately the little lady who came this time was not here.

We have been walking for a while, but looking back, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is getting farther and farther away.

There is a small stage at the end of Tang Dynasty's Sleepless City. Just as we arrived here, a band came and was singing. When you are tired from walking, listen to music here and take a rest.

Walking here was already exhausted. After walking too much in the day, it was impossible to walk back. Looking at the sea of people around, the idea of taking a taxi slowly died out, and returning to the hotel became a problem. I really suggest that you must think about how to get back when you come to Tang Sleepless City.

There are no taxis at all, and Didi is queuing up all kinds of times. Looking at the Baidu map, I simply take the bus back. The bus is still quite far away, and it's another round of hiking.

On the way to the bus station, I passed by Xi'an Tang City Wall Ruins Park. There is a poem chanting park inside. The style of the building made us feel new at a glance. It was as if we had discovered the New World. There was no one around us. We sneaked in. It was a maze-like building, shaped in a round shape. After walking in, there was an echo when we spoke, especially when we stood in the middle of the entire building. It was really a poem chanting park. It feels like a very interesting place, which is an unexpected gain.

There are a large number of poems engraved on the wall of the Chanshi Tan, which is the most middle position of the Chanshi Tan.

As expected, I finally caught the last bus, and the first day of the trip ended here. I booked the Ji Hotel (Xi'an Bell Tower Luoma City Store) in Xi'an. The hotel is in a good location. It is near the Bell Tower. Take the airport bus and get off at the Bell Tower Hotel. It takes two or three minutes to walk. There is also a snack street downstairs. It is quite lively at night. It is not very noisy after 11 o'clock. The hotel has just opened, with new facilities, a large TV, and a smart toilet. It is worth recommending.

the third day

Because I was not planning to go to Huashan and the Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Qin, today's itinerary was relatively loose. In addition, it rained a little in the morning and it was in time for the marathon competition held in Xi'an today. Many roads were blocked, so that most of today's itinerary was casual.

In the morning, I went straight to the Academy Gate, went to Yongxing Square for snacks at noon, and went to the Xi'an Incident Memorial Hall for free in the afternoon. The last stop was the Xi'an City Wall.

Shuyuan Gate is a street that sells the four treasures of academic studies. It is very cultural. Because it is raining and it is morning, there are not many people. The forest of steles is also inside the Shuyuan Gate. If there is no explanation in the forest of steles, you really can't understand anything, just inscriptions one by one.

I went to Hui Street yesterday, and I came to Yongxing Square today. The snacks on Hui Street are quite special. Because there is no pork, the snacks on the entire snack street are still very different in taste from the snack streets in other cities. However, Yongxing Square is more similar to a normal snack street, although there are still many snacks with Shaanxi characteristics.

There are still many people who come to play the bowl of wine that has been popular on the Internet for a while.

Yongxing Square is near the east gate of Xi'an City Wall. You can see the colorful lights and green lights on the city wall at night.

Because I wanted to stay on the city wall until night, it was a bit early to get up on the city wall, so I stopped by and went to the Xi'an Incident Memorial Hall, which was not very far from Yongxing Square, so I just walked there.

In fact, I have been to Xi'an three times, and I have always complained about the Xi'an city wall every time. I really like the feeling of walking on the city wall. Strolling from day to night.

It's still a long way to get down the city wall. If you just walk, you can't get down in less than half a day. Therefore, there are rented bicycles on it, both single and double. Even if you ride a bicycle around it, it will take about an hour. Moreover, the ground above the city wall is paved with stones, which is very bumpy. Your butt will scream when you go down the road. We rented a car for a ride first, and then walked for a while.

There are mainly four gates in the Xi'an City Wall, the East Gate (Changle Gate), the South Gate (Yongning Gate), the West Gate (Anding Gate), and the North (Anyuan Gate). I think the Yongning Gate is better, and the South Gate is also closer to the bell tower. You can directly see the bell tower at night from the south gate.

The single bicycles we rented were Xiaohong and Xiaobai.

As night slowly fell, the lights on the city wall were already on

Passing Xi'an Railway Station from the city wall

We were passing by the East Gate on the city wall and saw the bustling area below. After thinking about it, we felt that this was Yongxing Square that we had visited at noon. Yongxing Square was also so lively at night, so we decided to go down from the East Gate in a while and go to Yongxing Square again, which would be enough for dinner.

The buildings on the city wall are very effective when they are lit up at night.

Yongxing Square came again at night, and Yongxing Square was still bustling at night.

The two-day trip to Xi'an was a successful conclusion. Qu Xiaopang said that he didn't like Xi'an because he didn't understand history and couldn't understand it.

As an ancient city with a long history, Xi'an is a city with a Chinese flavor that still makes me forget. After all, I have been here three times. In fact, I was only passing through during my visit to Xi'an this time. There are no direct flights to Lijiang in Dalian. The transfer from Xi'an is affordable to the people. I can also spend two days in Xi'an, which is a good choice.

Lijiang

Lijiang is a place very close to the sky. When you arrive here, you always feel like clouds are floating above your head and you can reach out and touch them.

As a Northeastern, Lijiang is really a relatively distant place. This is the second time I have come to Lijiang. Even if I have come here twice, I will still love this place. It is like Wuzhen, which I have been to six times. I have a kind of longing that makes people forget.

Most people who come to Yunnan will fly directly to Kunming. After all, there are many flights from the provincial capital's airports, but there are still relatively few direct flights to Lijiang. There are no direct flights to Lijiang from Dalian, but flying to Kunming feels too far away from Lijiang, so I transferred in Xi'an. In fact, when flying to Kunming normally, I would go to Dali first, but now Dali is no longer Dali without Erhai Lake. Dali without Erhai Lake seems to have no soul. Excessive development of tourism has led to serious water pollution in the Erhai Lake and has to be closed.

Lijiang's altitude is not very high, but the temperature difference between day and night here is relatively large. The biggest feature of Lijiang during this time period is that there are all kinds of clothes to wear on the street, including down jackets, short sleeves, and down jackets on the upper body and shorts on the lower body (like Europeans).

There are still many places to visit in Lijiang, but the itinerary I arranged was relatively easy. I didn't want to be as tiring as I did with a group and get up early and late every day. In the morning, the plane flies from Xi'an to Lijiang. Because I booked it at the inn for three days, there is a pick-up service. Because Lijiang Airport is still quite far away from Dayan Ancient Town, you can pay attention to whether there is a pick-up service when booking a hotel. I booked the Lijiang Lazy Guesthouse on Ctrip. To be honest, it is still different from what I imagined. After all, I have been to Lijiang once and stayed in an inn in Lijiang once. Without comparison, there will be no harm. The last inn left a really good impression on me, so the inn I stayed in this time was a little unsatisfactory. The most important place is the group to the Yulong Snow Mountain I booked at the inn (I was also thinking in my heart that living here would allow you to make some extra money, and everyone was happy.) However, the local group did not book a ticket to the Yulong Snow Mountain 4680 on the large cableway. Although I also knew that the ticket was tricky, of course I wouldn't go without booking a ticket, but I had to charge me a 20% handling fee. This really made me unable to understand. I lost confidence in the service of the inn immediately. I refunded this ticket and rebooked a local group for the next day on Ctrip. They guaranteed that there would be tickets for a large cableway, and it was a Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle to pick up and drop off each group. There were 5-6 people. This local group was still quite satisfied.

the fourth day

We arrived at Dayan Ancient Town in Lijiang around noon. I got up a little early in the morning and had an early flight. After arriving at the inn, I rested for a while and started to visit the ancient town. Dayan Ancient Town in Lijiang is the largest ancient town I have ever visited. I visited Lijiang twice and spent almost three to four days wandering alone in the ancient town, but I still feel that I have not been to many places in the ancient town.

Dayan Ancient Town mainly extends around Sifang Street. It is said that there are more than 4000 inns in the ancient town. Coupled with commercial stores, bars, etc., you can imagine how big Dayan Ancient Town will be. There are really a wide variety of inns in the ancient town, and there will definitely be one that satisfies you, but students who have difficulty in choosing may have a little difficulty choosing. Even if there are more than 4000 inns, it is still difficult to find an inn during the tourist season. In addition, it is a crowded road, so it is more appropriate to come in the off-season. Even in this season, there are still a lot of people in the ancient city.

You can see people wearing shawls casually in the ancient town, and they are also sold everywhere. It seems to be an indispensable purchase when coming to Lijiang. Shops selling shawls usually have a shaw-weaving machine, and there may be a young lady who is working hard.

Dayan Ancient Town is still very beautiful at night, with endless flow of people, bustling and lively, and all kinds of shops are dazzling. Although most of them may come from Yiwu Commodity City, there are still some Lijiang specialty shops that we need to patiently find ourselves.

In the off-season, the ancient city of Lijiang is not so crowded with people. There may be a path that belongs to you at every turn. You don't need to look at the navigation or calculate the distance. You can go wherever you want and wander aimlessly in the ancient city at night. It's really a kind of enjoyment.

The rainfall in Lijiang is still relatively abundant, so you must carry an umbrella with you. It may start to rain at any time.

Yak, black goat platoon. This is a specialty in Yunnan. It is close to Tibetan areas. This kind of yak meat is quite abundant and looks very tempting. At first, I thought it was 48 yuan per stick, but later I saw clearly that it was 48 yuan per pound. Qu Xiaopang couldn't withstand the temptation, so I finally came here. It was just a small box of more than 100 yuan. The price was still high, but the taste was not bad, except that the meat was still a little hard.

The Dashuanshu is also a landmark building in the ancient city. Walking to the Dashuanshu is already at the edge of the ancient city. There is a not-so-large square nearby. It is crowded with people, and there are also local people dancing in the square here.

Sifang Street is the center of the entire ancient city. Sifang Street belongs to a square square, and each small road leads to various places in the ancient city.

When you arrive at Sifang Street, you will not be far from the bar street.

There is a lively bar street, and all kinds of bar styles are waving to you. Cheerful, high-pitched and warm songs are mixed together. This place is a good choice for drinking and lively, but don't want to have an affair. Meet a wine tray...

The ancient city is really big, and I have a particularly good sense of direction, but sometimes I get lost in the vast sea of people. If you want to go somewhere in particular, you still need to know about Baidu Maps. It may be a very important issue for students with a poor sense of direction to find their inn.

This is the small courtyard of the Lijiang Ancient City Inn where I stayed. There must be one thing in the Ancient City Inn-a tea table.

When you arrive in Lijiang and check into an inn in the ancient city, you must sit down and drink a few cups of tea made by the inn staff and listen to their stories with Lijiang. Sometimes you meet other classmates who also come out to play. It is good to sit down and have a cup of tea and talk about what you have seen and heard.

Most of the inns in the ancient city of Lijiang are made of wood. They still look a little antique under the light at night, but the sound insulation effect may not be so good.

the fifth day

The next day in Lijiang was supposed to go to Yulong Snow Mountain, but because the cableway was not booked, it had to be postponed until tomorrow.

In fact, there are still many places to go in Lijiang, but I decided not to go anywhere and wandered slowly in the ancient city for a day.

Dayan Ancient City is often heard of as the Ancient City of Lijiang. It is the largest ancient city in Lijiang. Not far from here, there is also an ancient town of Shuhe. Shuhe Ancient Town is slightly smaller and not particularly crowded. It may make people feel more leisurely.

You can also come to Lijiang to see a Lijiang Eternal Love performance. This is what you want to see. I have seen the performance of Eternal Love in Songcheng, Hangzhou before. It is a must-see performance in my life. The scene is still very good.

In Lijiang, the main ethnic group is the Naxi people. The Naxi people are women who work. The Naxi people are fat and beautiful, and they call beautiful and capable women fat Jinmei. The uncle driver on the way to the Yulong Snow Mountain told us that Naxi men do not work and are very lazy. People like him who still come out to work are very diligent.

Mufu, Mufu belonged to the residence of the Great Sima in Yunnan. In fact, it was equivalent to the local emperor. He experienced changes in several dynasties and still flourished. As the saying goes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. This place belongs to the edge of the country. Even if the previous emperors wanted to govern it, they would not be able to do so.

The architectural style of Mufu can be said to be similar to the royal palace, with majestic momentum. The ticket for Mufu is 30 yuan and includes explanations. After buying tickets, you need to wait for a while. After more than a dozen people are gathered, a guide will lead everyone on a tour. Only by following the explanations can you better understand that Mufu was once a multi-door prosperous. After a round of explanation, you can move freely, or you can not follow the explanation, but since there is an explanation, it is better to stop and listen, otherwise you will be unable to understand anything with your eyes black.

In the back of Mufu is Lion Rock, which is the highest altitude in the entire ancient city. You can overlook the entire ancient city by climbing Lion Rock. You can also see the entire ancient city from the top of Mufu. Mufu was built next to a mountain and needed to climb high when playing. Qu Xiaopang's psychological influence began to stir up and he began to feel altitude sickness, so he didn't go to Lion Rock. After visiting Mufu, he went out and continued to stroll around the ancient city.

Lion Rock Scenic Area is closed at night, so don't think about going to the mountain to take night shots.

I have forgotten the name of the restaurant for lunch. It is not very far from Mufu, just at the end of Zhongyi Lane. It is called a music bar. The taste and price are good, so I came here to eat twice. There are also group group meal meals online with a lot of dishes. The yak hot pot meal is good.

During dinner, a grandma came. She sold pomegranate and carried a small bamboo basket. It was not easy for her to carry such heavy pomegranates to sell at such an old age. It seemed that we bought two for 13 yuan. The grandma was Naxi, and the communication between us was not very smooth. The waiter at the restaurant helped us interpret it. In fact, fruits in Lijiang are still cheap, such as pomegranate, which produce a lot and the price is also very cheap.

In fact, when I come to Lijiang, I want to enjoy this kind of leisurely and complacent life. Don't rush around the major scenic spots, but leave a whole day and slowly take a walk in the ancient city. It's really a kind of enjoyment.

The ancient city is very big, so you can stroll slowly. You may be wandering around different streets all day. If you meet your favorite shops, you can go in and take a look. Although the shops in the scenic area are more commercial, it is still good to take a casual look and relax. Choose, there will always be one or two small things that will attract your attention.

the sixth day

Yulong Snow Mountain is regarded as Lijiang's lucky mountain. Too many tourists come here because of it. In fact, Shangri-La has many snowy mountains to climb when walking towards Tibetan areas, but the Yulong Snow Mountain is relatively famous. The Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area is particularly large. It is more reliable to sign up for a local tour when visiting Yulong Snow Mountain. The most important point is whether you can make an appointment to go to the Yulong Snow Mountain at an altitude of 4680 meters. If you want to make an appointment, it is still difficult. Most tickets are fixed by major tour groups, and it is difficult to get a ticket for a large cableway every morning. I ordered a group of 5-6 people from Ctrip. The price is more than 500 per person. A Mercedes-Benz commercial car transfers and transfers. At noon, there is a meal (self-service small hot pot), including tickets for the scenic spot, tickets for the large cableway, and a set of mountaineering equipment (down jacket, oxygen cylinder). The main reason is that as long as you book, you must have tickets for the large cableway, unless the large cableway is closed due to weather reasons.

The weather reasons for going to Yulong Snow Mountain are still very important. There must be snow on the snowy mountains. It must have snowed a few days ago to have thick snow on the top of the mountain. Only when the weather is clear can you feel the beauty of Yulong Snow Mountain. It had just finished snowing when we went, but because it just fell yesterday, the snow, the snow on the mountain had not been cleared, so we took the big cableway and directly went to the altitude of 4506. Inside the Yulong Snow Mountain, we had to take a bus first. The big cableway was basically about 3700 above sea level. Then the big cableway went directly to the altitude of 4506, and then climbed from 4506 to the highest altitude of 4680.

People with severe symptoms have already begun to react at an altitude of 4506. It is still very important to bring an oxygen cylinder. After all, at such a high altitude, there is still a lack of oxygen. Try to travel slowly and talk less. Start using the oxygen cylinder as soon as possible, and wait until you start using it after the altitude reaction. It will be too late to start using it.

There was no fog on the mountain, but then there was a gust of wind, and the fog hovering between the mountainside suddenly flew up. The temperature was relatively low at an altitude of more than 4500, but the sun was full and it would not feel cold. Later, the down jacket I brought was taken off.

After getting off the cableway, you will reach an altitude of 4506. You will reach the highest altitude of 4680 by walking straight up the wooden plank road. Unfortunately, because the heavy snow on the wooden plank road has not been cleared, the road can only be closed about half the way. It is a pity that I didn't climb 4680 this time. Because it only snowed yesterday, the snow on the mountain is still quite thick, and the weather is relatively clear, with a little fog. Although I boarded the 4680 last time I came here, I couldn't see anything because of the gloomy weather.

Because we couldn't get up to the altitude of 4680, we stayed above for a while and then took the cableway down. After getting down, we went to eat buffet hot pot and went to the next attraction-Blue Moon Valley. This is also a place that Qu Xiaopang particularly liked.

The water in Blue Moon Valley starts from green to blue from the upstream. The blue-blue water is like a watercolor painting.

Go straight down the Blue Moon Valley from the upper reaches and down the water's edge. You can visit the Blue Moon Valley for about an hour. The Blue Moon Valley has a battery car, and several stations can get on and off at any time. However, I still suggest not taking it. The total distance of the Blue Moon Valley is not very far. Just walk along the water's edge and slowly stroll. In fact, you cannot fully visit the entire scenic area by car.

The upper reaches of the Blue Moon Valley is the Yulong Snow Mountain, and the scenery is still very beautiful.

The water upstream is relatively shallow and still appears green. When it reaches deeper places downstream, the water begins to appear blue and blue.

The scenery in Blue Moon Valley is still very beautiful. Any photo you can take out can be used as a screensaver.

It seems that in Lijiang, Blue Moon Valley is a gathering place for wedding photos, just like Dalian going to the seaside and Hangzhou going to the West Lake.

This place is really suitable for taking wedding photos, and the scenery is great no matter how you take it. Along the way, I met more than ten pairs taking wedding photos.

It felt like it was a long time away from the sky, and the clouds seemed to be floating overhead and could be touched by just reaching out.

The Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area is still worth a visit. The most noteworthy thing about visiting the Yulong Snow Mountain is the weather. The cableway will be closed when the weather is bad.

The Yulong Snow Mountain Scenic Area also has an impression of Lijiang's exterior stage performance. I didn't watch it twice. If I wanted to see that performance, the time was tight, so I missed it every time. There were not too many groups that included this performance.

Climb at an altitude of 4680 and take a tour of the Blue Moon Valley is quite good. The time is just right, so you don't have to get up early and be greedy for dark. You can leave the ancient city at around 8 o'clock in the morning and go back at 4 or 5 o'clock in the evening.

I returned to the ancient city in the evening and came to this music bar at noon yesterday. It tasted good, so I came here for the second time. I mainly didn't know what to eat. We ordered a set meal for four people. The restaurant staff saw us ordering a set meal for four people and looked at us in confusion, haha. Maybe it was because he was tired from playing the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain during the day and felt that he could eat so much. The main reason was that Qu Xiaopang thought he could eat so much.

In the evening, we went to the second floor. Due to the off-season, the restaurant was not crowded. We booked the second floor and there was no one there. We found a great location and it felt really good.

Because we ordered the set meal for four, we were served this pot of rice. This was an unforgettable meal. We looked at the pot of rice with big eyes and eyes, and finally told the waiter to change it to a small pot. Don't waste it. Even four people can't eat this big pot.

We also ordered a small bottle of fruit wine, which tasted good, although it was too much to drink

Drink some wine and feel comfortable ~

The three days in Lijiang are basically over here. Lijiang is still a place worth remembering and will make people forget to leave. Qu Xiaopang said he would come again.

Lugu Lake

I have been to Lugu Lake once before, but time is in a hurry, so I have always missed Lugu Lake.

Lugu Lake is not very far from Lijiang, but it is all on the road. It basically circles the mountains and takes about 4 hours to travel, but the scenery along the way is still very beautiful. You can take a bus or charter a car online to get to Lugu Lake. The bus goes to Daluoshui Village. If you live in Daluoshui, you get off the bus directly to the inn. If you live in Ligg Peninsula, you have to take a taxi again.

I have visited Lugu Lake twice and lived in the Ligg Peninsula. The Ligg Peninsula is an iconic representative of Lugu Lake, and the scenery is also very beautiful. I still strongly recommend staying in Ligg. There are also many inns in Ligg Village. There are dozens of inns around the Ligg Peninsula, and there are five or six on the Ligg Peninsula. The inns on the Ligg Peninsula are still difficult to book, especially during the peak season, whether it is the price or the difficulty of booking. The last time I came here, I stayed in the Peninsula Sunshine on the Rigg Peninsula. This should be regarded as the best inn in Rigg. The facilities, location and services are very good. Every room has a balcony and a lake view is out of the window. It is a standard room with a lake view, and even the price is relatively expensive.

This time, I chose a newly opened Xinyue Yaji Lakeside Mountain Resort Hotel instead of Peninsula Sunshine. The main reason was that his 270-degree view room attracted me, and I spent a lot of money to stay there for three days.

the seventh day

Finally set foot on Lugu Lake where I was thinking of it.

I rented a car to Lugu Lake, an online taxi for 400 yuan. If I put it together, it would be 100 yuan per person. After repeated hesitation, I still chose to charter a car. The advantage of chartering a car is the scenery along the way. Take photos anytime you want to see. However, this road is all winding mountain road, with many turns, which makes Qu Xiaopang a little carsick. If carsick is serious, it is recommended to take a bus. After all, the car is not so shaking when it is too big.

I stopped several times along the way. This is the Jinsha River.

There were still quite a few resting areas and observation platforms along the way. Qu Xiaopang was sick and went to the resting area to buy a motion sickness sticker.

Tickets for Lugu Lake have now been changed to 70 yuan because the star rating has been downgraded to a four-star scenic spot.

The Lugu Lake Scenic Area is very large. Although it is a scenic area, there are still many indigenous people living in it. There are many villages, although most of them are commercialized.

The indigenous people of Lugu Lake are Mosuo people. Why are they called Mosuo people instead of Mosuo people? Because the 56 ethnic groups in China do not include the Mosuo people. They are only a branch of the Naxi people, so they can only be called Mosuo people.

The Mosuo people are also called walking marriage. This is the most interesting thing about the Mosuo people. Now, most Mosuo people no longer practice walking marriage. The so-called walking marriage is when they meet the woman they like on the walking marriage bridge during the day. At that night, after the woman's family falls asleep, they can directly enter the woman's boudoir with the woman's consent. There is no such thing as marriage in Mosuo people, only walking marriage. Moreover, children born to women do not need to be raised by men, but need to be raised by women and their brothers. Men do not need to raise their own children but need to raise their own nephews and nieces. This walking marriage is really...

Lugu Lake is located at the junction of Yunnan Province and Sichuan Province. In fact, two-thirds of the entire Lugu Lake belongs to the boundary of Sichuan Province. The scenic spot of Lugu Lake also has two ticket gates, Yunnan and Sichuan. We came from Yunnan, so we bought tickets from the ticket gate in Yunnan. When I first came in, it was still in a relatively high geographical location. One day, the observation deck could overlook the entire Lugu Lake. Due to the weather, the fog was really a bit heavy and cloudy. There was no beautiful scenery like blue sky and white clouds reflecting on the lake. The clouds were too thick and the lake water looked gloomy.

The path from Ligg Village to Ligg Peninsula

The Lugu Lake pig trough boat looks dilapidated, but it is still very photogenic. The results are not particularly good due to the weather.

These pig-trough boats are all human rowed and are not fast. It is very pleasant to slide slowly on the lake, but the time to play is not too long. After staying on the water for a long time, you will easily get tired. There are pig trough boats in many places throughout Lugu Lake. If you have seen the Dear Inn, you can take the pig trough boat to visit the Dear Inn. You don't have to take the other places.

I stayed at Xinyue Yaji Lakeside Shanshe Resort Hotel. The location of the hotel is not bad. The view from this large floor-to-ceiling window is also good. The hotel is newly opened and all the facilities are new, including smart toilets, electric curtains, projectors, and a relatively modern and simple inn.

This is a proper pose

There is a viewing platform behind the Ligg Peninsula. The most classic photos of the Ligg Peninsula in Lugu Lake were taken here. Take one from the last time I had a good weather.

After taking a four-hour car ride, I rested at the inn for a while, and came out for a stroll in the evening. This is a path from below the observation deck, not too early, leading directly to the Rigg Peninsula. Lugu Lake is relatively large, and the lights are not so bright at night, unlike the nights in Wuzhen and Fenghuang Ancient Town, where the lights are brightly lit.

After walking back to the inn, the inn has a small electric car that can carry guests to nearby places at any time.

A tiring day, take a bath

the eighth day

Due to Qu Xiaopang's unfeeling, his eighth day trip was cancelled and he rested at the hotel for a day. He originally had no specific arrangements today and wanted to go to Gomu Goddess Mountain. However, the Lugu Lake Rigge Peninsula is still too remote. The pharmacy is not open all day long. There is no place to buy a medicine for stomach pain. Moreover, the service of the inn still needs to be improved. Even a pharmacy like this is unstable when it opens. In places, I think that as a qualified inn, we still need to have some commonly used medicines.

the ninth day

After a whole day of rest, Qu Xiaopang's health has improved a little. I can finally come out and play today.

I planned to go around the lake all day today. I had always wanted to ride around the lake by bicycle, but after a long time of research, considering various factors such as time, distance, physical strength, etc., it was still a bit reluctant to ride around the lake. Moreover, now Lugu Lake is relatively strict. There are not many places to rent bicycles, because the road around Lugu Lake is still not very safe, and cars are prone to traffic accidents due to narrow roads. Electric bicycles are not allowed to ride now, so we rented cars around the lake.

The chartered car costs 400 yuan a day, or you can also carpool, which makes it generally 100 yuan per person.

Lugu Lake is about 70 kilometers around the lake, so it still takes a certain amount of physical strength to cycle around the lake.

The weather in Lugu Lake has not been particularly good in the past three days. It is cloudy and the sun shines for a short time. It does not have the feeling of blue sky reflecting on the water when I came here before. After all, the weather is relatively gloomy, and the lake surface is relatively dim.

Starting from the Rigg Peninsula, start counterclockwise to circle the lake.

Lovers Beach

There are two Lovers Beach in Lugu Lake, one in Yunnan and the other in Sichuan. The first one to arrive at Lovers Beach in Yunnan is Lovers Beach. I still think that the scenery of Lovers Beach in Yunnan is better. The beach is relatively large and it is closer to the clear lake water. Get in touch.

It took me a while to reach Daluoshui Village. The Ligg Peninsula is not very far from Daluoshui Village. The last time I came here, I walked from Ligg Peninsula to Daluoshui Village and then took a bus back to Lijiang. It took half a day to walk here, nearly 10 kilometers. There are still many inns in Daluoshui Village, and many of them are built along the lake. I feel that the scenery is still slightly worse than that on the Rigg Peninsula.

I met a group of little black ducks in Lugu Lake. I don't know what kind they are.

Around noon, we arrived at the place where we could boat to my dear inn. The cost of the boat seemed to be 180 yuan per person, which was a little hard to remember.

However, the boat time is quite long. It is all human rowing, and the boat's speed is still relatively slow. When you reach the center of the lake, you can try to taste the water of Lugu Lake. The water of Lugu Lake can be drunk directly. Some, I tried to drink a little, and the taste is a little sweet.

The handsome uncle rowing. They are all local people, so they don't understand what they say. It took more than an hour to row this trip, and I still felt quite tired, but looking at the expressions of the uncles, it didn't seem to feel anything.

The boat is in the middle of the lake.

When you reach the center of the lake, the water is very deep. Although the water is very clear, you can't see the bottom of the lake. You can vaguely see water plants floating in the lake.

High mountains and flowing water, blue sky and white clouds, and picturesque scenery.

Due to the inconvenient transportation, Lugu Lake is still relatively few people come. It still retains many natural landscapes, like a paradise. However, with the construction of airports and highways, more and more people are coming to Lugu Lake. Perhaps one day Lugu Lake will also repeat the mistakes of Erhai Lake. So while he still has this clear lake water, come to Lugu Lake.

As we get closer and closer to the Dear Inn, I can think of various scenes from the variety show Dear Inn at a glance.

Boss Wang Ke is powerful, boss Liu Tao is a small top boss, Kan Qingzi and Ji Lingchen are always quarreling (unfortunately they are now separated), and Chen Xiang can only make scallion pancakes. The Dear Inn in the first season is still quite memorable. The first time I came to Lugu Lake was when the first season of Dear Inn was being broadcast. I didn't know about this program at that time. It was only made up after I returned home. I didn't play it all the time I came last time. Plus, after watching Dear Inn, I always wanted to come again.

I like Lugu Lake, a clear lake water, which is crystal clear to the bottom.

Dear Inn has now been completely reduced to a tourist attraction. I even looked up this inn online before, but it is already difficult to book it.

I still remember Yi Shou Qianxi silently drew here without saying a word.

This is a dividing line between Lugu Lake, a dividing line between Yunnan and Sichuan. After this place, Lugu Lake belongs to Sichuan. Although I only crossed this line, I felt that the architectural style was a little different as I walked.

Caohai, this is the reason why Lugu Lake water is clear. It is because this Caohai purified the water of Lugu Lake that Lugu Lake has always had such clear water as it is now.

This is the famous walking marriage bridge. As a very important place for walking marriage people, where men and women meet, it is said that the walking marriage bridge cannot go back, so the driver himself made a circle on the other side of the bridge waiting for us.

Copper figure charged for taking photos on the wedding bridge.

The sky is gloomy, and the reflection on the water also makes the lake seem muddled.

Goddess Bay, it is said that Goddess Bay is the most beautiful place on Lugu Lake. It is a must-visit place when you come to Lugu Lake. Because the winding road above Goddess Bay has collapsed a little, the road is not easy to walk, and many cars are not easy to drive. So there are not many people here.

The sky is so gloomy. That he did not enjoy the beauty of Goddess Bay.

This good person's snack remembers that my dear Wang Ke and Chen Xiang from the inn came to eat it. At that time, it was still full for 30 yuan, but now the price has increased. We gave it a try.

Chicken stewed with matsutake, matsutake is so expensive, can it be matsutake... The main thing is to fill up.

In fact, the taste is okay. It may be that we were a little hungry while playing, and we thought the tomatoes were delicious even when we ate tomatoes mixed with sugar.

When you see the Rigg Peninsula again, it means that the circle around the lake is coming to an end.

We leave at 8:30 in the morning and come back after 3:00 in the evening. We spend about six to seven hours a day around the lake. Except for the weather, which greatly reduces the beautiful scenery of Lugu Lake, the rest is still very good.

A small leaf boat on Lugu Lake.

This is a photo taken the last time I came here. At that time, the sun was shining brightly, and the blue sky and white clouds were reflected on the lake gave me a refreshing feeling.

Even though the three-day trip to Lugu Lake is over, there are still many people who have not heard of Lugu Lake. The broadcast of Dear Inn has significantly increased the passenger flow of Lugu Lake and increased its popularity. However, as the passenger flow increases, the natural scenery of Lugu Lake may be eroded little by little, and commercialization will become more and more serious. Therefore, while Lugu Lake still has such a breathing natural scenery, A visit to Lugu Lake is a good choice. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, Qu Xiaopang didn't have a good impression of Lugu Lake.

Shangri-La

Shangri-La, Diqing Tibetan means the sun and moon in the heart. This is a paradise that too many people yearn for, and it is said to be the closest place to heaven.

The name of Shangri-La was actually changed only in late 2001. It was previously called Zhongdian County. On December 17, 2001, Zhongdian County was officially renamed Shangri-La County with the approval of the State Council.

In fact, the distance from Lugu Lake to Shangri-La is not very far, but there is no road leading to it. We can only go back to Lijiang and then from Lijiang to Shangri-La. The three places present a triangular geographical location. Lugu Lake and Shangri-La now have airports. It is relatively convenient to open a waterway.

There are still many buses that go from Lijiang to Shangri-La. Some go directly and some go to the Tiger Leaping Gorge. The Tiger Leaping Gorge is just between Lijiang and Shangri-La and is relatively close to Lijiang. Time allows it to go to the Tiger Leaping Gorge first. Good. We may be a little tired from playing, but after struggling for a long time, we decided to go directly to Shangri-La.

the tenth day

On the 10th day, I rested in Lugu Lake all morning, and carpooled back to Lijiang around noon. I made a reservation next to the Lijiang Passenger Station. In order to get up early the next day and take the bus directly to the passenger station, I also went to the ancient city for a stroll at night. Circle, the next morning, a direct bus took from Lijiang to Shangri-La. Most of the two days were spent on the bus.

the eleventh day

It is also about 4 hours 'journey from Lijiang to Shangri-La. I arrived at Shangri-La at around 12 noon. I stayed at the Orange Hotel in Shangri-La, which is not far from the ancient city and has a good location. Because the ancient city of Shangri-La is very small, I didn't think of staying in the ancient city, which is still very different from the ancient city of Lijiang.

As soon as I arrived in Shangri-La, it was obvious that I had entered Tibetan areas. The architectural style was very different. The architectural style of Shangri-La looks very atmospheric.

This is also my first time to come to Shangri-La, and it is also the first time that I have been so close to Tibetan areas. It really has a feeling that purifies people's souls.

Originally, the first stop was to go to Songzanlin Temple, so I picked up a car and the driver's eldest sister introduced it to us. In the end, we changed our itinerary. The first stop was to go to the Napahai Yila Grassland, which happened to be Qu Xiaopang. Students also don't like going to temples very much.

When we arrived at the Yila Grassland, we also spent 30 yuan each to buy tickets and introduced us to rent horse riding. In fact, we suddenly felt like we had been cheated. We didn't ride horses, so we bought tickets and went in slowly. Stroll. I still feel that Napahai is so big that every place will not charge for land.

But when we walked in and saw this beautiful scenery, we felt it was worth the trip.

Due to seasonal reasons, the weather is not very warm, and the grassland is not so green. Sparse cattle and horses stroll on the grassland and add some fertilizer to the grassland from time to time. However, it still cannot block the picturesque scenery here.

Judging from its location, this should be Shika Snow Mountain through the Yila Grassland. Shika Snow Mountain is also a snowy mountain that can be climbed near Shangri-La.

Sky, snowy mountains, sea, grassland. This is a scenery that you can never see in the city. Standing quietly on the grassland and looking into the distance makes people feel relaxed and relaxed.

The head rope was made when I went to the ancient city of Lijiang last night. I didn't make it after staying in Lijiang for three days. I insisted on saying that it was suitable for coming to Shangri-La.

Let us live together in the mortal world

Ride your horse and share the prosperity of the world

Sing joy to the song while drinking

Grasp the youth vigorously

Seeing this photo suddenly reminded me of this song

Brain filling the picture ~~~ Crape myrtle!!! Myrtle!!! A pair of large nostrils..

Although we didn't ride horses, many people still wanted to come and experience the galloping horses.

When studying Shangri-La Strategies, I never made Yila Grassland the main place to visit. I always felt that there was nothing to see in a grassland. In addition, I never studied and didn't understand how to get to the Yila Grassland. This is a mistake. Coupled with the exceptionally sunny weather today, the scenery is really worth visiting.

After playing in the Yila Grassland for about 1-2 hours, the driver was still waiting for us at the door, and then pulled us back to the hotel. While riding the bus, my eldest sister also recommended us a trip to Tibetan homes. I also thought of going to Tibetan homes before, but I had already booked it to go, but then we gave up this trip for various reasons. Generally, those who come with a group and want to pull lira will go to Tibetan homes. It is a special trip here. You can go and experience it when you have the opportunity to come next time.

After a short rest, we walked from the hotel to the ancient city of Dukezong. The ancient city of Dukezong has a particularly atmospheric style and the roads are also very spacious, making us feel like "local tyrants" at a glance. The difference from Dayan Ancient City in Lijiang is still very big.

The ancient city is very small because of the off-season. There are still few people who come to Xianggela. Like Lugu Lake, they are all quite remote and the distance is so long that most of the tourists come in groups, and not many people travel freely. Moreover, this still belongs to the plateau, and people who have a little altitude reaction cannot adapt to it.

Speaking of altitude sickness, I have to mention that the room at the Orange Hotel we stayed in was on the sixth floor. It happened that we were going back to catch the elevator for maintenance. We kept climbing up to the sixth floor. As a result, Qu Xiaopang took out the unused oxygen bottle and laid it in bed to absorb oxygen... The picture is unsightly.

The architectural door of the ancient city of Dukezong has a very rich feeling.

In the square, a Tibetan mastiff was crawling lazily basking in the sun. Although it looked very docile, no one dared to come forward and tease her.

This Tibetan mastiff is charged for taking a group photo.

In Shangri-La, where the altitude is relatively high, the amount of exercise needs to be slightly reduced. If you climb a small hillside, you may have a little lack of oxygen.

The world's largest prayer wheel in the ancient city of Dukezong requires at least 10 people to turn. When we went up, we just happened to catch a tourist group. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to turn it in this off-season when there were few people.

pudacuo National Park

The place Qu Xiaopang has always longed for is Pudacuo National Park, where Xie Na and Zhang Jie once held their wedding. It may also be that she prefers to listen to Zhang Jie's songs, Love the house and love the crow. Pudacuo National Park covers a large area. In the scenic area, you need to take a shuttle bus to various attractions, similar to Zhangjiajie.

Due to the arrival of a large number of tourists, Pudacuo National Park has now suffered varying degrees of damage. Now several attractions in the scenic area have been blocked, and now we can only go to Shudu Lake.

the twelfth day

Pudacuo Public Park is still some way away from the urban area. There are minibuses that go directly to Pudacuo National Park at the urban passenger station. The minibuses we take should also be privately contracted. The drivers are local Tibetans. Listening to the driver's introduction along the way, and through local explanations of Shangri-La and Pudacuo, we got a deeper understanding of this place. Of course, the driver said the most: Tashi Dele.

The altitude in Pudacuo National Park is still much higher than that in the urban area, with an average of more than 3000. In some places, it is close to 4000. It is a long journey inside. For Qu Xiaopang's psychological effect, he bought two bottles of oxygen. After getting off the bus, I obviously felt that the place was still very cold. We both wore single clothes, so we rented two more coats.

The weather is obviously not as good as yesterday. It is a little cloudy, otherwise the scenery should be better.

In fact, the reason why this season is off-season or because of the weather, the flowers, plants and trees in the scenic area are obviously not so lush. If it was summer and sunny weather would definitely be a good place.

Wearing a large rented down jacket, warmth comes first. Not bad, the clothes are not as ugly as expected. However, the women's red big down jacket is a little bit...

The yak was watching her fly, and had to fly and check in every place she went. In fact, it wasn't as high as it seemed. It was mainly because my calf was lifted back. It was also because I was afraid of it.

Walking straight along this lake, the distance is still very long, about 2-3 hours. Fortunately, there were few people, otherwise this small road would have been crowded.

Cows, sheep, where have they gone?

This is shuttling through the virgin forest, and there are also cattle and sheep grazing in the forest.

The grassland in the distance should be full of cattle and sheep, because it is too far away to see clearly. At first, I thought that I would be able to get there by walking along the lake, but then I didn't get there until I reached the end. It may also be because most attractions in the scenic area are closed.

Basically, after walking a large circle, there is a shuttle bus that can be taken directly back to the entrance of the scenic spot at the end of the journey. If other attractions are not closed, there should be a Baidu bus that can directly go to another attraction.

Because most of the attractions in Pudacuo National Park were closed, the one-day trip was completed in about half a day, and I returned to the city at about two or three o'clock in the afternoon.

In fact, what I remember most in Shangri-La is having a malatang meal at night, and it was Yang Guofu Malatang. This should be the most expensive Yang Guofu Malatang I have ever tasted. The Malatang shop is also nearby the Orange Hotel. We should have eaten more than 70 yuan in total, but we didn't eat much. We ate a malatang meal in Dalian at most thirty or forty years at most. Vegetables and fruits in Shangri-La are still relatively expensive. After all, they need to be transported from other cities.

The temperature difference between day and night in Shangri-La is still very large, and it is already very cold at night, but it still does not block the desire to see the night view of the ancient city.

No place can stop the enthusiasm of the ladies in the square. The collective square dance located in the ancient city square of Dukezong. Very enthusiastic, bold and unconstrained, and very Tibetan characteristics.

Many people coming to Tibetan areas want to buy a Tibetan sword. The price of Tibetan swords in the ancient city is still very expensive. Now, except for the ancient city, it is difficult to see any Tibetan swords in the urban area. If you want to buy them, you should go to a Tibetan sword factory. It is more appropriate to buy them. However, it is still very difficult to take away the Tibetan sword I bought. It is impossible to carry it with me. Express delivery also requires local people to deliver the goods under their real names. Nowadays, the control is relatively strict. It is too difficult to buy a Tibetan sword and take it home, so I gave up owning a Tibetan sword.

I stayed in Shangri-La for two days. I have a plane tomorrow afternoon. I fly from Shangri-La to Chengdu. At first, I didn't plan to go to Chengdu and Chongqing. Later, I discovered that there was a plane from Shangri-La to Chengdu. I thought about going to Chengdu and Chongqing for two days and then flying from Chongqing back to Dalian. Otherwise, I would have to take a bus from Shangri-La back to Lijiang. There are no direct flights to Dalian from Lijiang.

Qu Xiaopang was still interested in the two-day tour of Shangri-La. He said he would come again and liked this place. If I come next time, I can go to the nearby snowy mountains, or I can walk in the direction of Tibetan areas. The place I once longed for, Yubeng Village, is really a paradise. There is no car to reach it, so I can only walk through the mountains and enter. It's just that it may be difficult to walk in without any physical strength.

Chengdu

Chengdu is a city that you don't want to leave when you come. I actually wrote a travel note last time I came to Chengdu, but I came alone that time.

Chengdu is just a city, but it always makes people linger. It may have such a unique charm.

the thirteenth day

It took more than an hour to fly from Shangri-La to Chengdu, and the plane left after 3 o'clock in the afternoon. It was already dark in Chengdu City. What touched us the most when we returned to Chengdu was that we finally no longer felt oxygen-deficient and might even feel a little oxygen-deficient.

I booked the Mercure Kuanzhai Alley Store in Chengdu. The hotel is located in Kuanzhai Alley. It is a five-minute walk. Moreover, the hotel is located near the subway, so it is very convenient to get anywhere. You can get off the plane and take the subway directly to the hotel.

The last time I came to Kuanzhai Alley was during the day, so this time I will experience the Kuanzhai Alley at night.

Chengdu's specialty is pandas.

Chengdu is full of panda dolls and panda portraits. It can be said that Chengdu City is a panda city. After all, Chengdu has the largest panda breeding base in the world. Pandas are abundant here.

In fact, the wide and narrow alleys are similar to many commercial and snack streets in other cities

Although this place is called Kuanzhai Alley, there are actually three alleys here, a wide alley, a narrow alley, and a well alley.

This wood is called golden nanmu, and this golden nanmu table costs tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.

Sichuan still has many characteristics, and Sichuan opera's face-changing is also one of them.

When I come to Chengdu, I must not eat Chuanxiang. I really didn't eat Chuanxiang last time I came here, and no one wanted to eat Chuanxiang and hot pot alone.

This skewer world is downstairs at Mercure. We ate skewers first and then went to the wide and narrow alleys.

When I was taking the subway, I started to check what delicious food was nearby. I found this house at that time, and the reviews were good.

In Sichuan, the oily dish should be a must-have to eat hot pot or Chuanhua incense, but maybe only foreigners can use it. After using the oily dish, it will not be particularly spicy. This oil dish is placed directly on the table and directly included in the menu. It costs five yuan a bottle.

Because Qu Xiaopang couldn't eat too spicy food, I felt that since we came to Sichuan, I had to feel the spicy taste here. Chuanxiang is a self-service selection. Because this is our first time here and has activities, we have reduced the price by 50 yuan, so overall the price is okay and the taste is not bad.

the fourteenth day

Originally, I had arranged to visit Wuhou Temple and Jinli Food Street. However, after visiting Wuhou Temple for a while, it rained heavily. I had no choice but to rush around and return to the hotel. The day's trip was basically ruined by the heavy rain.

The Wuhou Temple is next to Jinli. When I came here before, it happened to be the New Year and I was also in time for the lantern party in the Wuhou Temple.

Before waiting for Chongqing, I began to eat hot pot in Chengdu.

After a good search online, I finally chose the Bashu general from Chunxi Road Store. I still ordered Yuanyang pot. Only the small part in the middle of this Yuanyang pot was not spicy. Looking at the chili in this pot, I would find it spicy just thinking about it.

Qu Xiaopang said that Sichuan hot pot has no soul. Why is it not soul? Because there is no sesame sauce, only oil dishes.

After the red oil melted, it was time for the pot to boil, which still made people's appetite greatly increase.

Duck blood, the color of this duck blood is too red.

During the inspection, I said that this store is very popular. Usually, there is a queue. However, when I go there, there are few people and there are not many people. However, looking at the rows of small stools waiting in line downstairs, we can see that there should be a lot of people during the peak season. The main thing is that when we both went there, it was already two or three o'clock in the afternoon.

I stayed in Chengdu for two nights. Maybe I had been playing for a little too long, and I basically couldn't play anymore when I arrived in Chengdu. In addition, the weather in Chengdu was not particularly good in the past two days, so that this trip to Chengdu did not have much fun. After eating and drinking, I slowly strolled on the streets of Chengdu. When the rain stopped, I strolled all the way to Tianfu Square.

Chongqing

It is still very close from Chengdu to Chongqing, a bit like going from Beijing to Tianjin. There are also a lot of high-speed rail flights.

In Chongqing, the most common things you can see are hot pot and noodles; in the ancient town, the most common thing you can see is the hot pot base. It smells really good.

The first time I came to Ciqikou, it was during the Spring Festival holiday. It was so crowded that I didn't even know who I was. Although it is off-season now, there are still a lot of people. It seems that Ciqikou Ancient Town is still a must-visit place for tourists.

The ancient town is full of hot sauce sellers, and various kinds of hot sauce are also tasted for free. Those who cannot eat spicy food should be tasted carefully. Qu Xiaopang is a lesson from the past.

An ancient town that needs to climb steps.

You really can't survive in Chongqing without some physical strength.

There are too many noodles and hot pot here at Ciqikou. It is a good choice to have a bowl of noodles nearby. We found a restaurant and specially ordered a bowl of Chongqing noodles that were not spicy, but it was still very spicy.

It was basically dark on the pedestrian street when I came back from Ciqikou. I went back to the hotel to rest for a while and took advantage of the night to go to the most unique place in Chongqing, Hongyadong.

Hongya Cave has a total of 11 floors. This is the legendary place to take the elevator from the first floor to the 11th floor, and in the end, we reach the first floor again.

The night view of Hongya Cave can be said to be one of the best. On the one hand, the lights of Hongya Cave are shining brightly, and on the other hand, the Qianzaimen Bridge is floating on the Jialing River.

Hongya Cave is really a cave. When you enter the cave and look out, it looks a bit like a Water Curtain Cave. At this time, the Qianzaimen Bridge outside had not yet lit.

As we walked around, the lights of Qianzaimen Bridge lit up. When I first came here, I thought that there was the Yangtze River below. Later, when I looked at the map, I realized that this was the Jialing River and merged with the Yangtze River in front.

This is the best location to shoot Hongya Cave, and all promotional photos of Hongya Cave will inevitably have one from this angle. There are also a lot of people here. Previously, you could cross the road directly to this side when you got down from above. Maybe it was because there was too much flow of people. Now that the road has been completely blocked, all pedestrians are not allowed to cross the road. If you want to cross the road, you can only follow the lowest floor of Hongya Cave and walk behind it. It is about the middle part. You can cross the bridge to the opposite side of the road, and then walk back. This place is really not easy to find.

Hongya Cave is also a perennial peak season. There are many people coming at any time, especially at night.

This young lady also worked hard to take a photo of her boyfriend, and the photo pose was touching.

Chongqing's nightlife should be very rich. It is already eight or nine o'clock to return to Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street after visiting Hongyadong. The pedestrian street is still crowded with people, and most of them are probably tourists.

the sixteenth day

This is the last day of the tour. The night plane runs directly from Chongqing to Dalian. I sleep until I wake up naturally in the morning, and my last day of my trip is to slowly stroll around this dreamy city. Sometimes you can discover different scenery in some cities by wandering slowly.

Kaixuan Road elevator. This was accidentally passed by. When I was using Baidu maps, I was asked to go directly from this place. This is an outdoor elevator. There is no one in ordinary cities. You still need to pay for it, one or two yuan per person. You can also not take it, there is also a staircase next to you. We actually took the elevator when we went down, and walked up when we came up.

This elevator is really unique. When we came back, we climbed it up and saw another special feature of Chongqing, Mahjong. Some uncles and aunties all set tables at the stairs to play mahjong. They really like this.

When I was wandering around, I saw a White Elephant Street here. There was a couple who seemed to be traveling to get married. They were wearing a wedding dress and carrying big bags and taking photos everywhere. Apart from feeling a little tired carrying it, this kind of traveling wedding looked really good. It's very touching.

The two-week honeymoon finally came to an end at Chongqing Airport. Holding a thick stack of double tickets, etc., a strong sense of happiness arose spontaneously.

Two backpacks, one SLR, a trip for two people

I finally waited for you
