Take your Ashima and come with me to Shilin.

Shilin is world-famous. Shilin Square is located in Shilin County, about 60 kilometers southeast of Kunming. It is more than 2000 meters above sea level. It is a peculiar karst landform, inhabited by Sani people of Yi nationality. Ashima is a beautiful song spread orally by Sani people, and it is a collective creation of Sani people from generation to generation, which fully embodies Sani people's living habits and customs. Therefore, here they call this lady "Ashima"; Men are often called "black brothers" ―― black has become a symbol of courage, hard work and loyalty. Besides, they also call some men "Bai" and "Hua". What does this mean? It turns out that "A Bai" refers to an idle and lazy man; "Ahua" refers to a greasy face and a man who has changed his mind. So you will go to Shilin. If the Yi people call you "Black Brother", don't be angry. Call you "Bai Ge" and "Hua Ge", but don't be too happy!
