The film "Celebrating More Than Years" has become popular all over the country, and it has also become popular in the Stone Forest Scenic Area, where it was filmed. The Stone Forest Scenic Area is the essence of karst, an epic of geological evolution spanning 300 million years. The well-proportioned stone forest looks like ridges and peaks from a distance, with different heights near and far. If you stand at the foot of the stone forest, you may be intimidated by its crumbling scene.

The third day is Dali (you can spend two to three days depending on your preference)

There are many trains from Kunming to Dali every day. You can go from Kunming South Station or Kunming Station. There is one in about ten minutes. The train runs for about 2 hours and the ticket price is about 150 yuan. It takes about two hours to reach Xiaguan Town, which may be the most convenient and fastest way at present. From Xiaguan, you can take a bus or take a taxi to reach Dali Ancient City.

Those who watched "Huanzhugege" and "Dragon" when they were children must have some thoughts about Dali. The ancient city of Dali is located at the foot of the beautiful Cangshan Mountain. It was the capital of the ancient Nanzhao Kingdom and the Dali Kingdom. The streets in the city have a typical chessboard layout and are the core tourist area of ??Dali. The ancient city of Dali is square and square, unlike the small bridges and flowing water in the south of the Yangtze River, nor the rows of high-rise buildings in the coastal areas, but it unknowingly exudes an irresistible beauty.

Quiet alleys without bustling tourists, clear blue sky, and delicious street stalls. Stepping on the exquisitely carved and spliced ??bluestone floor in person, you can appreciate the weight of history and the vicissitudes of ancient and modern times. In Dali, you can raise flowers and grass, play with cats and dogs, visit small shops, go to bars, and enjoy a slow, artistic, fashionable life.

The scenery of Dali is a picture of "wind, flowers, snow and moon".

Near Cangshan Mountain: Dali Cangshan Mountain has scenic spots such as Butterfly Spring and Tianlongba Film and Television City. The Chongsheng Temple at the foot of Cangshan Mountain was built during the Baohe period of Nanzhao. The three towers of Chongsheng Temple are majestic and majestic. It is a scenic spot in Cang'er one.

Near Erhai Lake: There are many islands and fishing villages around Erhai Lake, such as Xizhou, Shuanglang, etc. The islands have beautiful environment and beautiful scenery, like pearls scattered in the water, which is the essence of Dali's scenic spots. Popular villages along the lake include the Double Corridor of "Erhai Divine Light", Caicun where "Heart in Bloom" was filmed, and Xizhou, which features Bai folk residential architecture.

Around the ancient city: There are many unknown attractions around the ancient city of Dali. Tourism development in these places is not yet mature. The environment is less artificially modified and more primitive and natural. The Buddhist holy land Jizu Mountain, The Danxia landform and Shibao Mountain are all worth visiting

In the evening, you can choose to stay at a sea view hotel on the Erhai Lake or a theme inn in the ancient city. They are both good choices and not expensive. Day 4 Lijiang

There are many modes of transportation from Dali to Lijiang. Depending on time and needs, you can choose trains, buses and tourist lines (expensive) with fares ranging from tens to one hundred. After arriving in Lijiang, it is recommended to choose to stay in the ancient city, which usually costs around 200 yuan.

Lijiang Old Town is one of the famous towns on the Tea Horse Road, with a history of eight to nine hundred years. In the ancient city, there are wooden buildings and green tiles, ancient streets and stone alleys, small bridges and flowing water. Standing on the East Street of the ancient city, you can see the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the distance. The water from the Yuquan River, which originates at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain in the north of the city, enters the city in three streams, and then divides into numerous tributaries, flowing through the streets and alleys throughout the city, forming a poetic picture of "water flowing in front of every house, and willows hanging behind every house." The streets are informally arranged but freely distributed. The main street is next to the water, and the alleys are next to the canals. More than 300 ancient stone bridges complement the river, green trees, ancient lanes, and ancient houses. It has the atmosphere of a plateau water town with ancient trees, small bridges, flowing water, and people. With its aesthetic charm, it is known as "Venice of the East" and "Suzhou on the Plateau". The multiple "three-eye wells" built by making full use of the springs in the city to drink from the upper pool, wash vegetables in the middle pool, and wash clothes in the lower pool are a symbol of the wisdom of the Naxi ancestors and a model masterpiece for the local people to utilize water resources, fully embodying human nature. Harmony with nature. Sifang Street, the heart of the ancient city, was already a business hub in northwest Yunnan during the Ming and Qing Dynasties and a distribution center on the Ancient Tea Horse Road. Sifang Street is famous for its unique street scene with colorful stone paving, clear water washing the street, day and night as the market, and a washing market in the evening. The ancient city still maintains the architectural characteristics of the Ming and Qing dynasties in large areas. There are rows of tile-roofed buildings in the style of "three squares and one screen wall, four-in-five patios, and horse-drawn corner towers". They not only highlight the structural layout, but also pursue carved and painted decorations. They are clumsy on the outside and beautiful on the inside, exquisite and clear. It is a coincidence that it is praised as a "residential museum" by Chinese and foreign architectural experts.

The bar street at night is a good place for healing and romantic encounters. Regardless of whether the Lijiang authorities admit it or not, "Lijiang Love Encounter" has become the first business card of Lijiang tourism, far higher than the pursuit of national culture.

Many people come to Lijiang for an affair. Of course, the affair I am talking about is not a one-night stand as you understand it. Any affair to satisfy your physical needs is just a hooligan! On the fifth day, Shuhe Ancient Town Jade Dragon Snow Mountain returns to Kunming

You can get to Shuhe Ancient Town by taking a bus from Lijiang Old Town. The ticket price is only 1 yuan.

Shuhe Ancient Town is a well-preserved important market town on the Ancient Tea Horse Road. It is also a living specimen of the Naxi ancestors' transition from farming civilization to commercial civilization. It is a model of market town construction formed by opening up to the outside world and caravan activities. Shuhe Ancient Town is an important part of the World Cultural Heritage Lijiang Ancient Town. It was selected as one of CCTV's "China's Charming Towns" in 2005. The inns in Shuhe Ancient Town basically follow the traditional architectural style of the Naxi people, with strong ethnic customs. Many inns even introduce water features, which is unique. If you want to experience the life of the local Naxi people, your first choice must be in the ancient city.

Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is the sacred mountain in the hearts of the Naxi people. The main peak Fanzu is 5596 meters above sea level. It is an unconquered virgin peak surrounded by clouds and mist all year round. Composed of 12 snow peaks, the snow mountain is rich in free tourism resources, which can be divided into snow areas, glaciers, alpine meadows, primeval forest viewing, etc. The snow-capped mountains are majestic, exquisite and beautiful. As the seasons change, the azaleas blooming at different heights form a beautiful scenery of the snow-capped mountains. Scenic spots include Yushui Village, Blue Moon Valley, Glacier Park, etc. There is also a large-scale live performance "Impression of Lijiang" on the Blue Moon Valley Square.
