Traveling from Xiamen to Lijiang?

Lijiang-Meili-Lugu Lake Travel Guide (March)

Tip: When traveling to Lijiang, you must travel by yourself, and joining a group is not recommended. You'll know when you go. . . I go occasionally in mid-March, which is relatively off-season. Sometimes it may not be suitable for peak season travel, and the scenery along the way will be different. So this strategy is for reference only:) There is no direct flight from Xiamen to Lijiang, so we have to go to Kunming first.

First stop: Lijiang

There are several ways to get to Lijiang:

1, Kunming flies directly to Lijiang: Lijiang airport is very small, and many flights are not available. Most tourists choose to go to Kunming first and then Lijiang. Direct flights from Kunming to Lijiang have the advantage of saving most of the time, but they are more expensive. From Lijiang Airport to downtown, you can take the airport bus, 15 yuan, and take a taxi around 80 yuan.

2. Take Kunming-Lijiang Expressway: it usually takes about 8 hours, and the fare is 155 yuan. You can take a bus in the morning and arrive in the afternoon; You can also take a bus at night and arrive the next morning.

3. How to play: 6 yuan can visit the alley by buying a hand-painted map of the ancient city (bought by 5 yuan at a street stall). Don't even go in where you want to collect tickets, ha. . . . . . Going higher, you can see the whole picture of the ancient city. Although it is the off-season, the flow of people in the ancient city is not less than that in the shopping malls at the end of the year, and the peak season can be imagined. You can visit the ancient city during the day and go to the bar street at night. You can choose quiet, lively and alternative.

Second stop: Lugu Lake (2 days)

1, mode of transportation

(1) chartered car: 350 yuan/day (7 domestic off-road vehicles)

(2) Tourist shuttle bus: 90 yuan/person (round-trip fare), leaving at 8: 30 in the morning and arriving around 16: 00 in the afternoon; Return around 10 the next morning.

(3) Shuttle: 50 yuan/person, leaving at 8: 30 in the morning and arriving around 16: 00 in the afternoon.

2. Stay: Daluoshui Village, there are many lakeside inns, and the bed price is around10-20 yuan. WC is in the courtyard on the first floor, which is inconvenient (all rooms near the lake only have beds, and there is no standard room with bathroom). Some inns have standard rooms, around 80 yuan, where you can bargain. The conditions are good, but the rooms are all in the yard, and there is no view of the lake by pushing the window.

3. Play:

(1) boating: You can go to two small islands in the center of the lake, one of which is 25 yuan/person, and play for about an hour; If two islands play together, 45 yuan/person, 2 hours; You can buy some bread for seagulls, and a large group of people will fly around your boat. The scene is spectacular. You can go boating on the afternoon of the day you arrive at Lugu Lake, or you can start boating at 8 o'clock the next morning. There is no problem with time.

(2) Bonfire party: One of the programs of the tour group is mostly going through the motions, with a strong commercial atmosphere, without the life feeling of the Mosuo people as imagined.

(3) Watch the sunrise: get up early, around 7: 30, needless to say, just bring a camera to Kaka.

Third stop: Meili Snow Mountain (Tiger Leaping Gorge-Zhongdian-Feilai Temple-Mingyong Glacier, four-day trip)

Transportation: Rent a car (350 yuan/day, seven domestic off-road vehicles, trying to attract six people, which is more cost-effective. Imported cars will be more expensive, around 400 yuan)

Route:

Day 1: Lijiang-Lashihai-Tiger Leaping Gorge-Zhongdian

(1) Set out in the morning, first go to Lashihai to see the lake and birds, and then go straight to Hutiaoxia in Qiaotou Town. (2) After lunch in Qiaotou Town, a local steamed stuffed bun was brought in, and 50 yuan/person (you can bargain to 40 yuan) drove to Teacher Zhang's house, and the toll was 10 yuan/person, and then began to get off the tiger.

(3) After 2 hours, return to Mr. Zhang's home by the same way (you can also take the ladder to return, the journey is more dangerous, and the time will be one hour longer).

(4) Pull the steamed stuffed bun to Qiaotou Town and then go straight to Zhongdian.

(5) Arrive in Zhongdian at around 7: 00 p.m. (It is recommended to stay in Nipple Hippo Store, a bed in 20 yuan/person, and a standard room in 80 yuan. You can bargain. There is an open meadow in front of the shop. You can watch the sunrise in the morning and feel the quiet Shangri-La morning.

The next day: Zhongdian-Songzanlin Temple-Baimang Snow Mountain-Feilai Temple

(1) After breakfast in the morning, go straight to Songzanlin Temple. There are many places in the snowy holy land that intoxicate you. Unconsciously, two hours passed. . .

(2) After leaving Songzanlin Temple, head for Benzilan. After lunch, I began to leap over Baimang Snow Mountain.

(3) Baimang Snow Mountain is more than 4,200 meters above sea level, and whether it can be climbed depends on the weather. In case the road freezes on snowy days, it is quite dangerous. The road is very bad, dangerous+dangerous! Therefore, chartered cars must find experienced drivers. It is best not to drive by car. I don't know how many things happen on this road every year ...

(4) Many scenery along the way is very PP, so you can stop and enjoy taking pictures at any time, said the experienced driver.

We stopped and walked all the way, about five o'clock in the afternoon. You can stop in Deqin County and buy some fruits or something. If the camera has insufficient memory, you can also burn a CD.

(6) It takes more than 20 minutes to drive from Deqin County to Feilai Temple. Across the street is kawakarpo.

(7) There are several inns here, such as beds in 20 yuan and standard rooms in 80 yuan. We can talk about some prices.

Day 3: Feilai Temple-Mingyong Glacier-(beginning to return)-Feilai Temple-Baimang Snow Mountain-Zhongdian

(1) I go out at 7 am. Look at the legendary "Rizhao Jinshan"! If the weather is cold, put on more clothes.

(2) Eat the cheesecake and butter tea in the inn and go straight to Mingyong Glacier around 8: 30. It takes more than an hour to get there.

When we arrived, we began to climb the mountain. It took about 2 hours to climb the mountain and 1 hour to go down the mountain. It's very tiring to say. You can also ride a mule up to 85 yuan/person and down to 15 yuan/person. There is nothing to sell on the road. Those who are prone to hunger should bring more dry food and water.

(4) Looking at the glacier at close range, it is a little gray. oh . . But the overall posture is enough to shock you.

(5) It's best to go down the mountain before one o'clock, then have lunch, and start driving back at two o'clock, because we have to cross the Baimang Snow Mountain before dark, otherwise the mountain road will freeze, saying that it will be dangerous when it gets dark. And there may be roadblocks or something, but there is no signal on the mobile phone here.

(5) After crossing Baimang Snow Mountain, you can live in Zhongdian directly, and the next day will be more enjoyable. It's getting late, and you can still live in Benzilan.

Day 4: Zhongdian-Shigu Town-Lijiang

(1) If you don't want to go anywhere else, you can reach Lijiang around noon.

(2) You can get close contact with the first bay of the Yangtze River when you go to Shigu Town. Many tour groups don't take this route, because there is a toll station on the road, and there is a charge for entry and exit.

(3) Look at the first bay of the Yangtze River and go to the top of the mountain. But ordinary cameras can't take a panoramic view, which is a pity. It is said that the focal length of 15mm can be shot completely. There will be locals leading the way at the top of the mountain, and the 20 yuan toll will go around, huh? ...

(4) Have lunch in a small town, then spend some time wandering around, and then go home.

Add a few more points and say whatever comes to mind:)

1, Lijiang is generally a transit point for tourism in northwest Yunnan. Here, you can meet many like-minded donkey friends. They will post many advertisements for friends at the entrance of the inn. You can look around for useful information, or you can go to the bar street at night and ask if you see the right person. This situation is very common in Lijiang. Don't worry about others treating you differently. When we arrived in Lijiang for the first night, we didn't decide on any itinerary. At night 10, when I was going back to the inn, I wandered around the bar street for two minutes, and someone accosted me and hit it off. We can not only share their travel plans, but also share the expenses. In this way, the cost of renting a car for four days is five or six hundred per person. And if you charter your own car, you can decide your own route and not be bound by the tour group.

A chartered car must be a regular car. Many inns will introduce you to their own cars, but it seems that many of them are not qualified to operate. In Lijiang, Yunshan Travel Automobile Company should be more formal. The master of our chartered car is He Pengfei (Naxi nationality), and the license plate is 18 15 1 (seven-seat off-road vehicle, made in China); Tel: 13988872078. He is skilled, stable and very familiar with the local situation. He will answer any questions you have. You can call him if necessary. If he is not available, he will introduce other drivers. But the technology doesn't understand. When looking for friends, I suggest you be more careful. Some people are too effeminacy (if you don't eat this or that, you will lose your appetite), some people have no sense of time (for example, in Lugu Lake, it was agreed to leave at 10 in the morning, but some people came to gather after 1 1 in the morning), and some people are too weak (climbing mountains will drag their legs), which may bring unhappiness to the journey. Of course, going out depends on friends, everyone helps each other, and mutual understanding is more inclusive.

3. Be sure to buy a self-help travel book. There are many merits and demerits on the internet, so it is difficult for you to sort out and summarize them. Can only be used as a reference. Now the books and materials of self-help tour are relatively complete and mature. It is ok to buy a book with a newer year.

4, don't forget to watch the sunrise and sunset, there will be unexpected gains.

If you want to buy souvenirs from Lijiang, you should go to the alley. The more shops you go to, the cheaper the price will be.

6. I haven't been to Yulong Snow Mountain, and I don't know if it's worth it. The ropeway is too expensive anyway. Since we are going to Meili, Yulong doesn't need to see it.

7, Rhodiola, motion sickness medicine (last time I saw someone using a motion sickness patch, it seems to have a good effect), cold medicine must be brought. Buy fruit when you see it, and pay attention to your health during the trip.

8. Bring a camera companion or notebook. Don't pin your hopes on 1G or 2G cards. There is really no room, so we have to engrave the disc. The market price in Lijiang is 20 yuan/Zhang, while that in Shangri-La is 50 yuan/Zhang. Oh ... help yourself.

9. Lijiang can book air tickets, don't worry.
