Exploring Puzhehei, Yunnan, one of the filming locations for the TV series Three Lives Three Worlds

Opening rant: My first trip to Yunnan was not Lijiang, Dali, Shangri-La, or Xishuangbanna! You all know why not. Although I feel a little disappointed, I say that I can go to a sparsely populated place to broaden my horizons and cultivate my body and mind! Okay, I admit that I have become flashy after working for a long time, and I have become worldly after staying in the big city for a long time. Wouldn’t it be a bad idea to go to the countryside to purify my soul?

Puzhehei is a scenic spot famous for its landscape and pastoral scenery. It became famous after filming "Where Are We Going, Dad". Local people say that in summer, the lotus flowers stretch for miles, the vast lake, the hazy distant mountains, and the floating clouds make people forget their emotions.

The Spring Festival may not be the peak season, so you can’t enjoy playing in the water, but the relatively small number of people, coinciding with the blooming of rapeseed flowers, dotted with the hills of different shapes, is even more surprising.

Qinglong Mountain

A free hilltop located in the center of Puzhehei Scenic Area, it is the best vantage point to appreciate Puzhehei landscape gardens and sunrise and sunset. The mountain is not high, just over 100 meters. It will take some physical effort to climb up, but it is definitely worth the trip!

It was after 6 o'clock, and the sky turned reddish. There were only a few lights in the village, and everything had not yet woken up.

The red clouds gradually deepened, and the lake in the distance glowed with golden light.

The sky is getting brighter, and the faint sound of cockcrow can be heard from the village in the distance.

The sun jumped out from the distant mountains and covered the earth with golden clothes.

There is a large area of ??water in Puzhehei, and the fields are divided by the water.

Puzhehei is also a typical karst landform, with the hills rising in an orderly manner like steamed buns.

The last golden light of the setting sun shot out from the top of the distant mountains, filling the sky with sunset glow

The setting sun has set, and the distant mountains are also showing signs of fatigue

The sun has gone down, leaving only the remaining red in the sky, and the water gradually becomes darker

Puzhehei Lake

Puzhehei Lake is the main attraction. It is usually visited by boat. Lotus flowers are planted everywhere. In summer, frogs are croaking, flowers are fragrant, lotus stems are swaying, and dragonflies are touching the water, creating an idyllic scene.

Lake tours are conducted on hand-rowed iron boats to reduce environmental impact.

The stacked distant mountains are quietly reflected in the water

The sun is black, the sky is blue and it cleanses the soul

At dusk, the fisherman catches the last A ray of sunshine is casting a net

The four wind and rain pavilions on the Lover's Bridge are like crying over the mottled years.

In the early morning, the morning glow and distant mountains are reflected on the water, and a small boat is ready to set off

A beautiful woman is practicing yoga by the lake, with standard movements and improved flexibility

Practicing yoga under the morning sun by the lake is really a wonderful enjoyment, both for practitioners and spectators

The setting sun dyes the distant mountains, dead branches and white clouds red

The setting sun reflects on the red houses in the village, which is nothing more than a fairyland

The houses by the river are brightly lit, echoing the setting sun in the distance

The continuous mountains in the distance are red with the setting sun*** Wu

Torch Cave/Moon Cave

Puzhehei is a typical karst landform. Wherever there are mountains, there are caves. The stalactites in Torch Cave and Moon Cave are ordinary, but the moisture inside is very heavy.

The cave is connected to the water outside. The stalactites are inserted directly into the water, which is different from other caves.

The torch stalactites are quite realistic.

Fairy Cave

Fairy Cave is the essence of Puzhe Black Cave. It needs to be entered by boat. The cave is intricate and has a large area. The stalactites are of different shapes and can be selected by our institute. One of the top three caves I have ever entered.

Hundreds of millions of years of gentle erosion have condensed into stalactites of different shapes. What a miraculous workmanship!

Entering the cave by boat from the lake adds to the mystery

The stalactites hang down from the top in various shapes

Two progressive pools are formed here, as if As gorgeous as the Dragon Palace

Beautiful pillars, layer upon layer

Stalactites like curtains, as smooth as silk

Swan Lake

Swan Lake is a large swamp. The shallow clear water surface reflects the distant mountains and white clouds. From time to time, a few white egrets fly over. Swans and various migratory birds are leisurely feeding in the lake. From time to time, migratory birds are heard diving into the water. The sound of water.

The pavilion reflects the reflection of the distant mountains

The swamp is full of lotus flowers, and the hills extend into the distance

The Swan Lake attracts many migratory birds to play here. Spending the winter

The loving black swan couple rubbed their ears and temples together. They originally wanted to take a photo of the black swan in the shape of a heart, but unfortunately the black swan came to have a love affair

The migratory bird I don’t know its name looks so cute

The long bridge also becomes so handsome because of its reflection

I like to sit by the water and watch the pieces of steamed buns pouring out of the water, as well as the occasional migratory birds flying over

The blooming water lotus is holy and noble

Caihuaqing

Caihuaqing Ecological Village is being renovated everywhere and has lost its original flavor, but the two sides of the road entering the village are called In Puzhehei's back garden, rapeseed flowers have bloomed all over the valley, and the quiet water surface reflects the distant mountains, making it as dreamy as a peach garden.

Rapeseed flowers extend along the road leading to the village

Rapeseed flowers, blue sky and raised hills

The calm lake reflects the rolling hills, which are floating in the sky during the day

There is a small island in the lake, a pavilion on the island, and a few peach blossoms beside the pavilion. , this artistic conception

Sheshe Caochang

Sheshe Caochang is a meadow 2,500 meters above sea level. Perhaps the scenery is beautiful when the grass is green in summer, but at this time the grass has withered and turned yellow. But it was the fields in the canyon on the road that were even more shocking. Coinciding with the Spring Festival, ethnic minority gatherings were held in several valleys, where barbecues were sold and bullfights were held, which was quite interesting.

The fields show different colors due to different plants, like a palette

The fields extend along the valley towards Puzhehei

The Spring Festival should be a very important time for ethnic minorities. At the important party time, the girls all dress up to attend, eat some barbecue, snacks, and watch bullfighting

Bullfighting is not as bloody as in Spain. It is more about two bulls fighting and losing after exhaustion. Of course, a bull’s temper should not be underestimated and he will not give in easily. The dealer shouted and encouraged the crowd to place bets.

Above the pasture is a wind power station. When I stand under the wind turbine and look up, I feel dizzy.

Ethnic Minorities

There are several ethnic minorities in Puzhehei, including Bai, Yi, Hani, Hui, etc. Different ethnic groups have different costumes and customs. The locals can tell which ethnic group they belong to just by their appearance (of course I don't know if they are wrong), but I can only guess based on their clothes.

It should be the costume of the Miao ethnic group

It should also be the Miao ethnic group, how sweet it is to be photographed by your little lover

A cute little Miao girl, surrounded by a bunch of people Actually a little shy.

They should be from the Miao ethnic group. It is said that these beads are made by hand.

The aunt who sells silver jewelry is wearing an exquisite silver hat. I wonder if it is a treasure passed down from generation to generation?

I heard that they are also from the Miao ethnic group. The embroidery on their clothes is very exquisite and gorgeous, and the girls are beautiful and generous.

During the Spring Festival, various recreational facilities are also decorated with rubber flowers.

Food

The local food in Puzhehei focuses on barbecue and barbecue. Suddenly, the tastes across the country are slowly becoming the same. Food prices have also converged with first-tier cities across the country.

Barbecue egret (not sure, but a kind of bird)

Roasted whole sheep, the sheep is good, the roasting skills are average, and the roasted whole sheep made by Sichuan people is delicious.

Fried crickets, the wings and internal organs are not processed, and they are not cheap. After being exhausted for a long time, I still didn’t dare to eat it.

Another kind of bug, I still dare not try it anyway

The larvae of the cow baby, the baby cow stares innocently

The brine platter, including duck The neck, liver and other internal organs taste quite good

Puzhehei's dishes are spicy, and even the snacks are red.

As many lotus roots are produced in summer as there are lotus roots in winter, peppers are still indispensable.

Accommodation

The accommodation in Puzhehei is mainly divided into three parts. Tour groups usually stay in the urban area. The hotel will be better, but it is some distance from the scenic spot, so the night is more spent. Modern life in the town; you can also stay in Puzhehei Village and Xianrendong Village. There are many inns. You can really live in the scenery. You can see the scenery when you step out, but the village is a bit dirty; I live on a peninsula not far from the village. , not only living in the scenery, but also avoiding the mess of the village.

The appearance of the room, outside is the courtyard

The hotel room faces the peach garden. When the peach blossoms are in bloom, you can smell the peach blossoms and fall asleep.

In the courtyard of the hotel, the rhododendrons are in full bloom.

The hotel has two straw huts, which are both original and practical.

There are also many stylish inns in the village, but the outside is a bit dirty.

The hotel in the village has unique decoration

Transportation

There is now a high-speed rail direct to Puzhehei, Puzhehei and Puzhehei. Zhehei has become an ideal place to spend a weekend, but I just hope it can maintain its original style.

The carriage is Puzhehei’s bus
