Lijiang Lugu Lake has the unique spiritual and graceful temperament of the south. Your mountain is not very high, but it is still majestic. The water here is not a vast ocean, but it is enough to cleanse your soul. Find your own here. Soul and insights, let me share with you the 2017 Lijiang Lugu Lake travel guide.

The scenery passing by from Lijiang Old Town to Lugu Lake

01. After feeling the rich atmosphere of Lijiang Old Town, I embarked on the journey to Lugu Lake early in the morning.

I thought that Lugu Lake and the ancient city are not far from each other, but this is not the case. It takes about 6 hours of driving on winding mountain roads to reach Lugu Lake. It is really a test for those who have just got off the plane and walked through the ancient city.

The winding mountain road is very steep. Sometimes when I look out the window, I can see the Yangtze River below, and the narrow driveway is only covered by a low stone wall. The tourists next to me said jokingly, It’s really exciting to spend money~ I said yes, it’s more exciting than a roller coaster... I’ll omit the 100 intense heartbeats here...

The more beautiful thing is behind

The beauty of Lugu Lake completely shocked me. It was so beautiful that it was breathtaking! The moment I saw it, even my breathing felt superfluous and I wished I could Use your eyes to capture all the beauty.

When I picked up my mobile phone to take pictures, I felt like I couldn’t capture the fairy spirit no matter how I took it.

The beauty of Lugu Lake is inhumane and unscrupulous.

Even though there has been too much publicity to beautify it, and I was prepared to be disappointed, the moment I met it, I felt that all the pictures I had seen before did not capture the beauty of Lugu Lake. Beauty expressed.

But if you think about it carefully, it is indeed too difficult to express.

I don’t know whether it’s because of the weather or because of it. Lugu Lake looks like a still, solidified, mysterious and heavenly lake. Perhaps within its own framework, there is no such thing as beauty at all. The concept, just showing its original appearance, has automatically drawn a clear boundary with other scenery.

Since then, there has been no second lake in the world.

03. Travel and Writing

Today is also the 20th day of my writing check-in, and I am going to Lijiang After many years of dreaming, it was also in writing that I discovered my depletion and tiredness of the beauty in ordinary life, and wanted to seek new stimulation, which finally gave me the urge to realize my dream this time.

If you live forever in the old world, your lifelessness will eventually be reflected in your language. It will definitely have no vitality and will not be able to bring joy and touch to others.

When the 20th day came, the friends in the group did not cheer for joy, but complained that they had no motivation, no inspiration, and even frankly said that they could not write.

Forgive the clumsiness of my mobile phone~

However, so many things happen to us every day, do you really understand it seriously and with your heart?

Only you really Only by treating writing as an irreplaceable and sacred career in life can we explore life with our souls.

Then, let go of this sacredness, and gradually turn it into small things such as eating, drinking water, washing your face and brushing your teeth to deal with it during the daily update, so as not to be complacent with even a little achievement, and Don't get lost without any response.

Of course, I have only stayed on the road of daily updating for 20 days. I still need more days to witness my fate with writing.

04. Some people say that traveling is a luxury, and it is impossible to spend a lot of money traveling to find inspiration.

However, if you want to travel, you can actually travel less expensively, as long as you care about the essence of your soul rather than the external excitement.

Let me briefly tell you about some of my expenses during the trip:

1) Air tickets. I chose the special ticket from Shanghai to Lijiang, which cost me getting up at 4 o'clock, and then Take a taxi to the subway station and then go to the airport from the subway station (the subway to the airport starts at 6 o'clock). This is the cheapest way I found at the time. The total price is about 620 yuan (including 540 yuan for air tickets)

Inn Yard

2) The next step is accommodation, because the first stop is the ancient city area. I chose the nearest inn in the ancient city area (as shown in the picture above). You may think it is very expensive, but it is not. A standard large room only costs 88 yuan a night. I don’t know if it’s because of the off-season. This price is everywhere in the inns in the ancient city. At night, you will become one with the ancient city

Inside situation

3) In terms of food, in the ancient city, a bowl of rice noodles or cured pork ribs costs between 10 yuan and 40 yuan. There are many rice noodles for more than ten yuan, and cured pork ribs are slightly more expensive.

This price is quite reasonable for me, who has lived in Shanghai for more than a year. You know, this is on the commercial street of the ancient city.

The highly recommended snack is the flower cake. It is really delicious. What is the price?

The store where I bought it costs 10 yuan for three pieces, and the small ones are only one yuan each. , is it very conscientious?

There are also many exotic fruits, such as round mangoes, and a fruit with a light fragrance that I forgot the name, which has a unique taste.

(The price is no different from what I had in Shanghai)

Never get tired of it

4) If you are not satisfied with strolling in the ancient city and want to visit some attractions, you will naturally spend more Silver, because time is limited, I chose Lugu Lake, which I wanted to visit the most. What's the price?

Three-day bus trip is 99 yuan

Ticket is 100 yuan

In principle, you can already see Lugu Lake up close.

But if you are still not satisfied, you can take a boat to the island for a stroll, which only costs 50 yuan~

In the evening, it only costs 30 yuan to attend a local bonfire party~~

Is it much cheaper than expected?

Speaking of which, the beautiful pictures promised to you are coming, please hold your breath! Look down!

The lake is blue And the crystal clear bottom

Originally can only be seen on the Internet, but seeing it in person is even more shocking

Forgive me for taking pictures with my mobile phone, which is not enough to express one-tenth of its beauty
