The sun’s first shining place
is the Jiantang of the East
The most beautiful place in the world
La Shangri-La on the Milky Way River
——James Hilton in the novel "The Lost Horizon"
Someone said that Shangri-La is a disease that cannot be cured. Going to addiction, you can’t stop it! I am very yearning for this mysterious land. Today, I finally embarked on the road to Shangri-La.
DAY1 Kunming-Dali
This time we have 6 people from Kum, starting from Kunming and driving to Shangri-La. Depart at 8:30 in the morning and arrive in Dali around 13:00. I was going to have a lunch and continue to hurry. As a result, I didn't see such a scene along the way. At that time, Xu's lyrics appeared in my mind. "Life is more than just the eyes, and there are poems and distant fields." I think this Probably the poetry and the distant look. Therefore, we decided to stay in Dali for a day.
A small partner in Dali introduced us to the ancient city to eat a private kitchen called "Golden Chicken Hotel". I opened the navigation and turned around and finally found it in a small alley.
An old-fashioned courtyard filled with bamboo and flowers and plants. If there is a small sign at the door, I would probably think it is an ordinary dwelling.
The furnishings are all old local objects, and there is a literary atmosphere everywhere. The menu is a blackboard, cute and cute~ I guess the boss must be a young lady with a girl's heart.
Dali’s fish is well-deserved! We ordered a "meat and spicy fish", which is really delicious. The sour taste of the plum just stimulated the delicious flavor of the fish. When I reacted to take pictures, the hot and sour fish has been eaten up by everyone. (See the picture on the Internet, you can take a look at it)
There is a dish in their home called "Little Grandma Milk Fan Silk" is actually a cold milk fan silk. The first time I eat a salty milk fan, the taste is especially wonderful, very delicious!
The streets of Dali Old Town are very lazy and literary. Here you will unconsciously slow down.
We stayed at an inn in the ancient city of Dali that night, although it was not big, but the garden was full of flowers, very beautiful!
DAY2 洱海,喜洲
The next day we rented an electric car in the ancient city, ready to go to the seaside to see! (Electric vehicle 80-120/car)
The beauty of Bohai is the kind of sultry beauty, which makes people feel very comfortable. Look for a reef at the seaside, blowing the wind with moisture, watching the clouds in the sky, not too Beautiful!
There are a lot of large verbena flowers in the sea, and they are in the middle of it. (PS: These flowers are private, and you need to collect tickets for 10 yuan/person)
In the afternoon, we went to Xizhou, which has the reputation of “the first town of Bai people”. This is one of the birthplaces of Dali culture. It has a long history and awkward national culture. Fortunately, there is not too much commercialization here. The folk customs are very simple.
We rented a carriage, and the driver drove through the carriage in Xizhou, enthusiastically introducing us to the local folk customs and customs. The driver was very talkative. We told you to take photos here, and the things there are delicious. This house is a century old house...
To Xizhou, of course, you can't miss the food here. Xizhou is the speciality here. It is sweet and salty. The sweet is the rose sugar filling. The salty is the fresh meat and chives filling. The outer skin is crispy. The inside is soft, biting a lip and a scent.
There is also a net red popsicle shop - "cool huts". When we went there were a lot of people waiting in line, and the little house was crowded with people.
There are many people in this popsicle shop, and their popsicles are really too delicious! I think milk popsicles are the best. The rich milky aroma has a natural taste and is essentially different from the taste of popsicles bought outside.
A variety of beautiful tie-dye can be seen everywhere on the streets of Xizhou. Tie-dye is a unique craft of the Dali Bai people. Here, the delicate Bai girl produces a beautiful tie-dye with exquisite techniques and bright colors, which are sold on the street.
DAY3 Dali - Shangri-La
On the third day, we departed from Dali to Shangri-La at 9:00, the whole journey was 320 kilometers, and it took about 4.5 hours. When we arrived in Shangri-La, it was around 13:30. Before the departure, I booked a B&B in the ancient city of Dukezong on the Internet.
I didn’t expect to place an order, the hotel butler called. I told the local weather conditions and told me to bring more than one coat. The temperature difference between morning and evening is relatively large. I heard that we came by car at about 13:30. He also asked us what we wanted to eat. He went to help us in advance, and we can have lunch when we arrived.
It’s so sweet! Touched~
The hotel butler is a Tibetan guy named Tashi! I laughed especially in the sunshine. When we arrived, he was waiting for us at the hotel entrance. They dressed in traditional Tibetan costumes to offer us Hada. For the first time in my life, I was given Hada, and I was a little excited.
Into the hotel, I was completely shocked by the scene inside! In addition to the exterior wall, the entire hotel is full of wooden structure, even the stairs are wooden, stepping on it, it is very good. The wooden fence was engraved with beautiful patterns. Later, Tashi told me that in order to make this hotel have a traditional Tibetan style, they specially invited Tibetan woodworkers and carved masters, which took more than three months to have today. "Dibei near the cloud."
My room is on the second floor! The door and keys of the room are unique, with a simple door buckle and a lock engraved with Tibetan ornamentation! The keychain is sewn in cowhide, very beautiful and rich in Tibetan flavor!
After a day of boating, I was a little tired. When sitting on a soft sofa in the room, the housekeeper will be ready to serve. Drowsiness was immediately driven away by the aroma of food. They are some very simple home cooking, but they are very tasty. It is said that the chef here has been a chef for 8 years!
After the meal, we went back to the room to rest. After a full sleep, we went to the ancient city of Dukezong. There was a fire in 15 years. Fortunately, this disaster did not destroy this. Moonlight City.
The hotel we stayed in is located in the ancient city of Dukezong, only 10 minutes walk from the most central Guishan Park.
The Kameyama Park stands on the world's largest prayer wheel and requires several people to work together to turn. It is about five stories high. The upper end of the wall is engraved with four great Bodhisattvas of Manjusri, Dizang, Puxian and Guanyin. The lower end is engraved with the eight treasure maps of Buddhism. There are also scriptures and no words in the cylinder. Wait for 1.24 million. It is said that every clockwise turn is equivalent to reading the law number of 1.24 million, and after three weeks of conversion, you can pray for blessing and good luck.
Beside the prayer wheel is the Big Buddha Temple. In the Vatican, you often see devout Tibetans bowing around here.
The outside of the Big Buddha Temple is covered with prayer flags and wind horse flags. The breeze blows through the rustling sounds. It is very beautiful.
Maybe because the Tibetans are too simple, there are no over-commercial shops and noisy streets. In the wooden Tibetan dwellings, the old Zhuoma is gently licking the beads, and the kindness and kindness of the face reveals the piety of faith.
DAY4 Shangri-La Dibei near cloud hotel
The fourth day we didn't go anywhere in the Dibei near cloud hotel, because there are so many playing in the near-cloud! Let's take a look at our breakfast!
One person per person, not only exquisite but also very nutritious. The rice noodle cooked by the chef is a must, it looks ordinary, but the taste is very delicious. I feel that I rarely eat such delicious rice noodles in Kunming.
Let's talk about our activities at the hotel in detail!
First, buttering tea
In the middle of the courtyard, the housekeeper Tashi prepared all the ingredients needed for butter tea. He patiently told us about the ratio of ghee, salt, tea, milk, and then showed us how to make butter tea. I saw that the two dogs had some itching and volunteered to try. As a result, the buttered tea was splashed. Faces are all. The entire hall is filled with our laughter and laughter.
Second, marinated yak meat
The housekeeper Tashi brought a lot of small dishes with spices. Each of us had a plate of fresh yak meat. Let us marinate the spices according to our taste, then send them to the kitchen for baking. Soon afterwards, It has become a yak jerky, which is made by my pickled yak meat. It tastes good, not too dry, moderately soft and hard, especially suitable for drinking.
Three, see the hands of Master Thangka hand-painted
A young lady from our company is very literary and likes Thangka! Originally, I was going to ask where Tashi could visit Thangka's hand-painted. I didn't expect Tashi to directly invite Master Thangka to the hotel! Let us get close to Thangka.
The master said that when he was very young, he followed Tengka’s hand-painting with the master. It has been painted for more than twenty years. He said that Thangka was called Thangka because the cloth was passed from the Central Plains to Tibet during the Tang Dynasty, so people painted the paintings on the cloth as Thangka!
Tangka's craftsmanship is very complicated. It has to be repeated many times, and some complex Thangkas may take months or even years. Moreover, there is a lot of attention to drawing Thangka. If you are painting a Bodhisattva, you don't need to use a cloth to cover it. If you are painting a law, you need to cover it with a cloth before the painting is completed.
Four, Zhaxi Performs Tibetan Musical Instruments - Mandolin [P>
Little brother is very handsome, I didn't shoot well.
Tashi, a Tibetan boy, will blush when he talks to a girl and smiles especially in the sun. He will also sing a lot of Tibetan songs, and the strings he plays are also very nice. Before he pulled the string to the customer, the video was transmitted to the Internet by the customer, and Tashi became a small net red.
DAY5 Napahai
On the fifth day we went to Napahai! Although the Napa Sea is called the sea, it is actually a seasonal lake in the plateau. In the dry season, it is the grassy grassland of Ila, and in the rainy season it is the sparkling Napa Sea. We should be in the middle when we go, there are large grasslands and clear lakes.
The laid-back cattle and sheep on the vast Ira steppe occupy a large piece of heaven and earth, lying on the soft grass, and the clouds at your fingertips float through the blue sky, as if you are in a fairyland.
Walking along the Napa Sea, in the distance are flocks of cattle and sheep and tall green trusses, next to the green bark that has just been hit, the low village houses scattered in the distance, from afar Going to the sky and disappearing at the end of time.
We were so lucky that it was raining when we left, and it was clear when we arrived at Napahai, and there was a rainbow. Probably Napahai is so beautiful, we are all crazy running here, taking pictures... Our Xiaopeng brother wanted to use aerial vehicles to shoot the entire Napa Sea, but I don’t know why Napahai is a no-fly zone. The bracket took a delay.
There are a lot of horses on the Ira Prairie for tourists to ride. The Tibetans will take you on a horse in the grasslands of Ira to feel the pleasure of differentially crossing the cheeks! Just so unconsciously, one day passed!
DAY5 Pudacuo National Forest Park
Pudacuo National Forest Park is about 25 kilometers from the ancient city. It takes about 40 minutes by car.
It is said that Pudacuo has different scenery all year round. In spring, there are wildflowers all over the mountains. The summer meadows are covered with wild azaleas. The autumn is full of golden flowers and the winter is snowy. The color is as beautiful as the palette that God accidentally overturned.
In Pudacuo, breathing will unconsciously lighten. The quiet air, tamed the heart of the cattle and sheep, they stood there docilely, and swayed their tails gracefully, even the food was very focused, and occasionally looked up at the magical snow-capped mountains in the distance.
The air here is so sweet with a hint of forest, and it’s refreshing to wander around! Birds with colored feathers and small squirrels that ask for snacks are often seen on the road.
—Tips—
Tickets are 258.00 yuan/person (including 120 yuan tour fee, 138 yuan ticket fee)
Pudacuo National Forest Park Between 3,500 meters and 4,159 meters, don't go too fast when walking in the park, keep breathing at a constant speed, otherwise it is easy to reverse. I saw a little boy jumping on the plank road and then jumping high!
