Two people want to travel to Lijiang, but they don’t have much money. The total cost for the two of them may be up to 2,000 yuan. How to plan?

Take the train, stay in cheap hotels, and try to eat as cheaply as possible

Don’t eat in the ancient city, that is not the price of the primary stage of socialism. Opposite the big waterwheel in the front of the ancient city, there is a facade without a signboard. The food sold inside is just like a college cafeteria, and it is pretty good. Opposite the ancient city parking lot, there is a Kunming "Jiang's Bridge Xiangyuan Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles" chain store. The taste is good. Friends from out of town can try it, but each item is 2 yuan more expensive than in Kunming (people in Kunming eat the ones that cost 8 yuan a set). Just grow it and try it, there is no need to eat the 12 yuan set). The legendary Lijiang Baba is very famous, but they sell for 6 yuan each in the ancient city. Whoever buys it is the winner~~~~~ However, when walking on the more remote streets in the ancient city, you may encounter the kind of small stalls set up by yourself. If you I think the price is reasonable and I might try it, especially the chicken bean jelly.

You can listen to Naxi ancient music in the evening, but it must be hosted by Xuanke. Although some people in Yunnan academic circles believe that it is not real Naxi music, due to its great fame, the concert tickets for the elderly are still rising: A ticket is 140 yuan, a B ticket is 120 yuan, and a C ticket is 100 yuan. It's up to you.

Let tonight be spent in the flowing water.

The next day

There are no must-visit attractions in the morning. You can go to the legendary Black Dragon Pool Park. The ticket is 60 yuan, half price for students - you might as well grab it. But I heard that admission is free before 7 o'clock in the morning, but I haven't tried it myself - for a normal person who has been to Bitahai and seen the entire snow-capped mountains, what is the point of going to that so-called "park".

The ticket price for the Wangu Tower, which overlooks the panoramic view of the ancient city, is 15 yuan, but this is pure nonsense.

It is necessary to visit the "Mufu" in the afternoon. The ticket is 35 yuan, and the student voucher is 20 yuan for one piece and 35 yuan for two pieces. Although the ticket price is close to that of the Forbidden City in Beijing during the off-season, it can be regarded as the most well-managed tourist attraction in the entire western Yunnan region. There is a free explanation at the door, which is quite interesting. Just be careful: just like in Stone Forest, don’t follow him to buy wine, tea, draw lots and worship Buddha.

After dinner, we have free time to explore the night view of Lijiang. If you have petty bourgeoisie money or petty bourgeoisie temperament, then go clubbing. Very cool, very bluesy.

The third day

The arrangements for the third day are decided by each person:

If the car fails during the day, it is best to get up early and leave early, so that you can arrive. If you take the night train back to Kunming, you can get up early and take some photos in the ancient city. If it is daytime, the background of your photos will only be people. After taking photos, you can go to Shuhe Ancient Town.

To go to Shuhe Ancient Town, you can rent a bicycle in the ancient town, or you can take a minibus. But if you want to take a CMB, don’t take the special line at the gate of the ancient city. Instead, ask for directions and walk to the Likelon Supermarket on “Shangri-La Avenue” in the new city and take the CMB at “Longquan” (fare is 2 yuan). Get off the car at the roundabout in front of Shuhe Town, then turn west onto the dirt road and walk into Shuhe, so you can avoid the 30 yuan entrance fee to the ancient town.

There are several ways to return to your hometown from Lijiang:

A: Fly directly from Lijiang Airport back to your city

B: Go back to Kunming from Lijiang first

a) Return to Kunming by plane, the full fare is NT$530

b) Take the express train back to Kunming, the fare is NT$155

c) Take the night sleeper bus back to Kunming , ticket price is 120 yuan.

d) Take the high-speed express (50 yuan) or minibus (35 yuan) back to Dali, and then transfer to the train in Dali back to Kunming. This route is the most economical. If you have enough time, even if you can't buy a same-day train ticket in Dali, it is still cost-effective to stay in Dali New Town for one day. In the evening, you can also see the night view of Dali and the ball culture buildings with Dali characteristics.

PS: 1. No matter what souvenirs you buy in Lijiang, you have to bargain for about a quarter of the asking price.

2. Rental in Lijiang city is 7 yuan.

Kunming: Railway guesthouses located a little away from the train station, such as those in the water service section, locomotive service section, and public works section, are very cheap. Ordinary two-person rooms cost 30-40 yuan/day, and standard rooms cost 60-80 yuan/day. But the Railway Administration Guest House on the main street is very expensive! Be careful not to stay in private hotels! Very unsafe!

Dali: Stay in a family hotel outside the south gate of the ancient city. The price of a standard room can be as low as 30-40 yuan/day (I stayed at Sunshine Restaurant)

Lijiang: Stay in the ancient city More expensive than Xincheng. Generally, the housing prices near Sifang Street are higher at 80 yuan/day for a standard room or even more; those a little further away are relatively cheaper, at 40 yuan/day for an ordinary two-person room, 60-70 yuan/day for a standard room, and 80-90 yuan/day for a couple's room. sky. The Lao Xie Car and Horse Shop where we stayed was very clean!

Shangri-La: Standard room costs 100 yuan/day, conditions are not good, it’s cold at night!

If you have air conditioning, it’s expensive!

Weather

Features: small annual temperature difference, large daily temperature difference, large indoor and outdoor temperature difference, strong ultraviolet rays.

The weather in Lijiang is moody. Not to mention winter, even in the dog days of summer, the temperature sometimes drops below ten degrees. Therefore, no matter when you come to Lijiang, it is necessary to bring enough clothes. , it is recommended to bring one or two pieces of spring and autumn clothes in addition to summer clothes in summer. In winter, you must bring cold-proof jackets and down jackets. Due to the large temperature difference between indoors and outdoors, it is best to wear clothes that can be easily taken off and put on at any time. Do not wear more than one piece at a time. , once this piece is taken off, there are short sleeves underneath.

Another important thing in Lijiang is sunscreen. The sun in Lijiang is very strong. If you are exposed to the sun like this for a few days, it will be hard for those who are not used to it. Being tanned is a trivial matter, and if it gets serious, it can cause you to lose a layer of skin. However, if you like or envy our dark complexion, then the Lijiang sun will definitely satisfy your wish quickly.

Transportation

Intercity Transportation

The main modes of transportation into Lijiang are currently airplanes and cars. Many key cities and tourist cities across the country have opened flights to Lijiang. The route is very convenient to reach. After arriving at the airport, you can take a taxi to Lijiang City (the price is generally 80 yuan), or you can choose to take the airport bus (15 yuan per person); the cars coming to Lijiang mainly come from two cities - Kunming and Panzhihua, the time from Kunming to Lijiang is about 9 hours. The best station is Nanyao Station. There are many cars there and the conditions are good. The fare is generally - about 150 yuan for high-speed express and about 115 yuan for sleeper. It is also available now The fares for super luxury buses and high-speed sleeper buses are about 180 yuan and 130 yuan respectively. The cars from Panzhihua to Lijiang all come from Panzhihua Passenger Transport Center, which takes about 7 and a half hours. There are about 5 departures a day, and the fares range from 50 to 70. Yuan does not vary.

Urban transportation

To go to various scenic spots, charter a car (it is best to ask a few people to travel together, it is also cheaper to charter a car), usually taxis, operating vans and operating off-road vehicles Taxis generally cost about 250 yuan per day, operating vans generally cost about 200 yuan per day, and operating off-road vehicles generally cost about 350 yuan per day. There will be some fluctuations depending on the season, the place you go and the road conditions. If the fare is too different from this price, But you need to be careful. Don't think you are taking advantage. I believe you are all equal and others will not be stupider than you, haha.

You can also take buses to various scenic spots at various stations, but sometimes you need to transfer when taking the bus. For example, if you go to Zhonghutiao, the bus can only go to Qiaotou, and you still have to charter a bus to go to Teacher Zhang’s house.

p>

So sometimes carpooling with a club is a good choice.

Consumption

The daily consumption in Lijiang is higher than that in cities such as Dali and Kunming. Shopping is not a problem in Lijiang, but if you need any professional supplies, it is best to prepare them yourself before coming here.

Accommodation

There are generally two places to stay in Lijiang - the ancient city and Shuhe. According to personal preferences, you can have different choices. The conditions in the ancient city are simpler, but optional The scope is much larger. (There are too many inns in the ancient city!) However, due to over-development, commercialization in the ancient city has reached its peak. If you like liveliness and shopping, then great, the ancient city is your paradise. Shuhe Since the number of people in the inn is not large, it is much more refined. And because there are far fewer people visiting Shuhe than the ancient city, Shuhe is much quieter. If you like to drink tea quietly, sunbathing Basking in the sun, listening to music, and surfing the Internet, that's great, Shuhe welcomes you.

As for the price, the price in the ancient city is generally 60-150, and there are also more than 300, and the relative environment and hardware are all. Much better. There are also many star-rated inns and hotels in the ancient city. Of course, the prices are also different. Standard rooms generally range from 180 to 350 yuan.

Because the inns in Shuhe are more meticulously made, they are no cheaper than those in the ancient city. Some are even more expensive than most in the ancient city. The general price is 100-240. But there are also many Niuban people who open them. Niuben Inn, I know that the highest room price is 1880. Oh my god...I am not a nouveau riche.

It should be noted that the house price in Lijiang is greatly affected by the low and peak tourist seasons. During the Golden Week of May Day and National Day, rooms in various places in Lijiang are full, and house prices will be much higher than usual, and arrivals are not guaranteed yet, so be sure to act first.

Eat

In Lijiang, there is a dazzling array of food. The ones that everyone has heard of most are Lijiang Baba and Cured Spare Ribs Hot Pot. I don’t have any prejudices about Baba. I’ve eaten at many places and haven’t found anything. Its cuteness, forget it, there is no chance to watch the blue sky across the street. The cured pork ribs in Xiangshan Market are good, you can really have this one. The better ones are Yujie and Dafo. In fact, you don’t need to remember the name of the store, go to the market, Whichever restaurant is full is the one. The other one is the Old Lijiang Hotel in Huadu Trade City. It has a real Naxi flavor, and no matter where the guests come from, they will not find it unpleasant. It is quite good and I like it;

Lijiang also has a major feature, that is, Lijiang’s bars. Some people describe Lijiang’s bars, saying that they are the worst bars in the world and also the liveliest bars. People play and sing there every night, and they are also there. I found a completely different but possibly true self here. Many people are reluctant to leave Lijiang. In addition to the beautiful scenery and customs of Lijiang, the bars in Lijiang are also one of the reasons. You will never find the same thing in another place again. The bar is over.

What I have to say is the romance in Lijiang. It is very longing, beautiful, secretly fragrant, and full of jade, which makes some women have a headache. It is an romance that can only be encountered but cannot be sought. It is enough to stop it and take care of yourself. Zhi.

The most concentrated place for bars in Lijiang is of course Bar Street, just next to Sifang Street. The most lively and famous places there are of course Sakura House and Little Paris.

Attractions

The main attractions that people go to in Lijiang include Dayan Ancient City, Black Dragon Pond, Shuhe Ancient Town, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain (Glacier Park, Yunshanping, Maoniuping), Locke's former residence, Jade Pillar Qingtian, Dongba Wanshen Garden, Yushui Village, Yufeng Temple, Baisha Mural, Wenfeng Temple, Lashihai, Qiangui Mountain, Ninety-nine Dragon Pond, Tiger Leaping Gorge, Baoshan Stone City, and Lugu Lake.

Among them, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain (Glacier Park, Yunshanping, Maoniuping), Locke’s former residence, Jade Pillar Qingtian, Dongba Ten Thousand Gods Garden, Yushui Village, Yufeng Temple, and Baisha Mural are the first line, generally here Choose what you want to visit and spend a day exploring it.

Because Dayan Ancient City and Black Dragon Pool are in the city and very close, we generally don’t make special arrangements. You can go to Black Dragon Pool in an hour or two, and you can also visit Dayan Ancient Town in the evening. However, you must visit Mufu and Wangu Tower in the ancient city during the day.

Wenfeng Temple, Lashihai and Shuhe Ancient Town are also very close to the city. Generally, half a day is enough for each place, but it is worth mentioning that Shuhe Ancient Town is also a place where you can take a dip. You can even If you stay there and spend ten days and a half there, it will be much quieter than the ancient city of Dayan.

Qiangui Mountain is a three-hour drive from Lijiang. You can usually spend a day there to enjoy the dawn and the first bay of the Yangtze River.

If you just want to visit Jiujiu Longtan, you can rent a car for a day to see it. If you want to carry a tent and other supplies to truly experience it, you can go as long as you want, but that is the best. It is a group of several people, and among them there must be one or two experienced old donkeys.

Tiger Leaping Gorge, if you just visit Tiger Leaping Gorge, whether it is Lijiang or Zhongdian, you can easily go back and forth in one day. If you want to hike, most people choose Teacher Zhang’s Tiger Leaping Gorge. It takes about three hours for a round trip. You can also choose to continue down Tiger Leaping and then to Haba Snow Mountain, but if you are not a donkey, don’t go through this hardship;

The fastest trip to Baoshan Stone City is two days. And the road is not very good, you can also choose to walk from Baoshan Stone City to Lugu Lake. If you walk quickly from Stone City to Lugu Lake, it will take three days, and if you walk more leisurely, it will take five days.

It usually takes two to three days to go to Lugu Lake, but if you want to visit every place, or if you want to live there for a while, how long it takes is up to you.

The Shuhe Hefu Ancient House is a Naxi ancient residence with a history of more than 200 years. It has ancient wooden doors, windows, tables and chairs, and hanging purple gauze, which is classical and elegant. The courtyard is full of flowers, fruits and trees, green and quiet, allowing you to feel the comfort and tranquility of an ancient mansion. The oversized skylight allows you to enjoy the stars in the sky, and you can lie down and look at the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, which is very romantic.
