Yunnan self-help travel guide

Tourism in Yunnan is generally divided into three lines:

1 Kunming-Dali-Lijiang-Shangri-La-Meili Snow Mountain

2 Kunming-Pu 'er-Xishuangbanna

3 Kunming-Baoshan-Ruili

The first line is the one with the highest tourism value and the most people, and the first line of sightseeing is all.

let's share the first line together.

Two long-distance trips

Traveling by train is the most economical, affordable, safe and cost-effective means of transportation. I suggest going by train. K365/K364 Guangzhou-Kunming 14:2-15:21 day, 1 hour, hard seat, 194 hard sleeper, 353, take this bus to Kunming just in the afternoon, so it is suitable to find a hotel and visit the night scene.

if you don't have enough time, fly. Air ticket prices are generally discounted between 9-1. See the quotation of the flight on the same day.

Three tours (according to the standard of ordinary citizens, it's hard to say if you are a rich man)

One day in Kunming

Two days in Dali

Five days in Lijiang

Three days in Shangri-La

Three days in Meili Snow Mountain (it's worth visiting when you have time)

On the afternoon of the 1st, you will arrive in Kunming. When you arrive in Kunming, you will find a hotel to settle down and have a rest to relieve your travel fatigue, and come out for activities in the evening.

in the afternoon, go back to Kunming and take a bus to go to dali, about 1 buses, and stay in Dali ancient city at night.

Stay in Dali South Gate Parking Lot (south gate). There is a Bai hotel called "Double Star". Every time we go to stay in a standard room of about 5 yuan, the proprietress is very accommodating. Ask her to help you buy discounted tickets. She can make money and you can save a lot of money. So accommodation is absolutely cheap.

Note: She helps you buy discounted tickets (Erhai Lake. Three towers. Cangshan) is about 27 together.

On the third day, take a boat trip to Erhai Lake. At 8: in the morning, get off the boat at noon.

In the afternoon, visit Chongsheng Temple.

on the fourth day, visit Cangshan scenic spot and take the cable car to get a panoramic view of Erhai Lake.

when you come back in the afternoon, ask the proprietress to arrange a bus to Lijiang in advance, and make an appointment for a car to pick you up and take the Lijiang luxury bus.

The road from Dali to Lijiang is not easy. It takes 184 kilometers-about 4 hours

Go to Lijiang in the evening and stay in Lijiang at night.

The problem of accommodation in Lijiang:

I used to live in an air-conditioned room with a clean and hygienic environment of about 8 standard rooms near the entrance of the ancient town, which was very cost-effective.

why don't I choose the ancient town?

First, you have to pay 8 yuan/person for the construction of the ancient town.

The inn in the second ancient town is very expensive. If the conditions are good, you can stay over 15 for 1-2 days. After a long time, the consumption will be high.

The small hotel (converted from private houses) in the third ancient town is cheaper, but the conditions are not good ...

Find a clean and hygienic inn in or near Lijiang. Take a short break to relieve the long-distance fatigue.

In the evening, come out for an activity tour of Sifang Street, Dayan Ancient Town, which is "shaped like an official seal and has power in all directions of the town", and stroll through the market, and you will appreciate the unique ancient city style of "every family's stream turns around, and every household hangs down and competes with the south of the Yangtze River".

By the way, contact the travel agency and go to Lashihai tomorrow.

On the 5th day, I toured Lashihai and Shuhe Ancient Town with 1 yuan, who was in a group.

In the morning, ride horses and swim in the lake in Lashihai. . .

Visit Shuhe Ancient Town in the afternoon.

Lashihai is actually not a sea, but a lake, a wetland lake surrounded by mountains.

It's only a 2-minute drive from Lijiang City, and it is surrounded by mountains. The shadow of the mountains ripples on the blue lake with the water waves, and the shining spire of Yulong Snow Mountain can be seen through the layers of mountains. The lake is very clear, and white clouds are reflected on the water, which is really beautiful.

On the 6th day, visit the Dayulong Scenic Area at the foot of Yulong Snow Mountain, including the Snow Mountain. Baishui River, Ganhaizi, Yufeng Temple, Dongba Shenyuan, Yuzhu Qingtian, Yushuizhai and other scenic spots, the full set of fees is 19 yuan/person, (excluding the snow-capped cableway), but 172 pieces of the snow-capped cableway are extremely expensive.

You can take a walk in Heilongtan Park in the evening ~!

On the 7th day, Lijiang took a bus (23km) to Lugu Lake, the daughter country of China, and watched the scenery of Jinsha River and Xiaoliangshan along the way. The viewing pavilion had a bird's eye view of Lugu Lake, and in the evening, it was 3 yuan/person to enjoy the Mosuo bonfire party (participating in Mosuo people's dancing and singing songs).

On the 8th day, after breakfast, we took a pig-trough boat trip to Lugu Lake and enjoyed the three wonders of Mosuo people (on the lake). Take a bus to Lijiang in the evening.

On the 9th day, from Lijiang to Shangri-La, we visited Tiger Leaping Gorge, the largest canyon in the Yangtze River, which is one of the most magnificent canyons in the world. It is famous all over the world for its high mountains and deep valleys, numerous beaches and steep waters.

If you have physical strength, you can challenge the Tiger Leaping Gorge on foot. . . . .

Looking at the first bay of the Yangtze River from a distance (the river turns into a reversal here and rushes into the Central Plains to expand).

In the afternoon, go directly to Shangri-La to visit Xiaozhongdian Ranch, see the cuckoo in spring and the wolf map in autumn, all of which are oceans of flowers.

Stay in Dukezong Ancient City in Shangri-La County at night.

On the morning of 1th, visit Songzanlin Temple, the first Tibetan temple in Yunnan. Go to Rye grassland in the afternoon. In the evening, visit Dukezong, a bustling ancient town, and enjoy the wine.

On the 11th day, visit Pudacuo National Forest Park, and take sightseeing bus to visit Shudu Lake, Miritang Meadow, Blue Sea Pagoda, the Pearl of the Plateau, and the first village in Shangri-La.

If we have enough time, we will go on. . . . . . .

it is not convenient to go west. It is recommended to charter or rent a car.

On the 12th day, go to the first village in Shangri-La and go to Deqin. (Friendly reminder: the road of self-driving is the asphalt road of National Highway 214, and the road conditions are very poor. They are all close to mountains and cliffs, with narrow roads, steep bends and steep slopes, and the climate in mountainous areas is changeable, so you need to drive carefully. I drove more than 2 kilometers for 7 hours. . . )

Enjoy the scenery of Jinsha River Valley from a long distance. Enter balague Zong Shangri-La Grand Canyon National Forest Park.

In the afternoon, pass through Benzilan, the important town of Tea-Horse Ancient Road, and cross the Yakou of Baima Snow Mountain to Feilaisi Town at the foot of Meili Snow Mountain.

In order to enjoy the wonders of the sunrise, stay in Feilai Temple at night, get up early in the morning and go to the observation deck to see the wonders. (It's not a matter of personal luck every day. You can't have a bird if you go out for 2 times a year, but it's really spectacular. I lived for 11 days before I can witness the truth. The sky was dark. Suddenly, the first ray of sunshine in Yunnan appeared in the direction of the snow-capped mountains. Slowly, there was a big hole in the sky, and all the sunshine was forced to hit the snow-capped mountains from the hole. The snow-capped mountains turned golden under the irradiation of sunlight to form the wonder of "golden sunshine".

On the 13th, I got up early to see the magnificent scenery of the snow-capped mountains in Feilai Temple.

then drive into Meili Snow Mountain. Enjoy the scenery of Meili Snow Mountain Grand Canyon in Lancang River.

Ride on (13/ person) Mingyong Glacier (ticket 8) and see the magnificent scenery of Prince Shisanfeng Snow Mountain. Return to Deqin in the evening.

Go back to Shangri-La the next day. It's too dangerous to drive that way at night. . . . .

what? Not enough?

I mean ..... the sun ...... was Tibet in the past ...

Well, I'll tell you all the routes I took. . . . . .

ok, come again. . .

Walking on foot in the hinterland of Meili Snow Mountain-Yubeng Village, a picturesque Tibetan village in Xanadu. (The village is located on a large flat land halfway down the snow-capped mountain, and there is no means of transportation to enter, so you have to walk or ride a mule.)

The village is surrounded by Meili Snow Mountain on all sides, and the top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, with trees and flowers.

Many people ask me why I have to spend so much effort to ask us to go to Yubeng Village.

In fact, Meili Snow Mountain has a very high status in the eyes of Tibetans. It is one of the "eight sacred mountains in Tibet". There is a waterfall in the goddess peak of Meili Snow Mountain, which Tibetans call the sacred waterfall. It is said that the waterfall has a very high status, and the water flowing down from it is sacred water. Everyone in Tibetan religion must come here to wash his sins. (I also went to wash my head, and I feel nothing. . Hehe) Yubeng Village is the only way for many pilgrims to turn around and worship Meili Snow Mountain. In Yubeng Village, you can see the Tibetan people's belief in the sacred mountain and their proximity to it.

It is said that 23 coincides with the Year of Water Sheep in Tibetan calendar, which is the birth year of Meili Snow Mountain, one of the eight most famous sacred mountains in Tibetan areas, once every 12 years and once every 6 years. More than 1, tourists from home and abroad and countless Tibetan Buddhists gather from all directions to make a pilgrimage to Meili Snow Mountain. The Yubeng Village with hundreds of people is more lively than a county town.

The specific scenic spots and hiking routes are complicated, so it is necessary to make plans according to individual differences (the route can be arranged according to individual physical strength). Yubeng Village is definitely an excellent place for sightseeing, hiking and outdoor activities, and experiencing ethnic customs.

Tickets for scenic spots:

You can also get off at Feilai Temple to stay and watch the sunrise on the snowy mountain the next day.

Lijiang Cuisine:

Restaurants in Old Town of Lijiang are often very expensive, and the taste is not so good. After eating, they often shout that there is nothing delicious in Lijiang.

1. Wild yam ham chicken, hot pot, next to the parking lot at the south gate of the ancient city.

second, the "heart-round snack" at the Zhongyi market, with Naxi-style cooking, is good and cheap.

three: Jilipu snacks, Baisuifang Hutong in Xinyi Street. Chicken bean jelly, yellow bean, cold noodles, rice noodles, rice enema and other Lijiang specialty snacks

4: Dongba Valley wild mushrooms, hot pot, Mahua Street. Known as the spring water of Yulong Snow Mountain for many years, Cordyceps sinensis of plateau snow mountain and 46 species of wild mushrooms, it is made by simmering for 12 hours. But the taste is really delicious. (In saliva ...) Add Tricholoma matsutake, chicken brown, boletus, Pleurotus ostreatus and other bacteria to the black-bone chicken soup and stew for 2 minutes before eating. Be sure to drink soup. (It's torture. I can't eat a pot of delicious food, and I have to endure the fragrance that floats from time to time ...) The price is not cheap. (It's all kinds of bacteria, so it can be cheap.)

Five: clear soup goose, hot pot, melon in the middle of snowy mountain.

6. Take a black goat with its skin and hot pot, and take a taxi to the bottom of Jinkai Square, where there are all streets, and every family's brand says that it is the first one, so it's right to pick a lot of people to go in, haha ... Lijiang special food

7. Laojianshui barbecue, next to Qixing Street Temple Fair Street. This driver generally knows that this house is KTV diagonally opposite. Their barbecue is delicious, and the grilled fish is special and delicious.

Shangri-La specialty:

Shit, I went to Songzanlin to cheat Tibetans, and I deliberately hung a matching knife on them. It's really beautiful ... I bought his knife for 8 yuan, and I went to Deqin to show it to the hotel owner as a fake ~ ~ I'll have a nice day ...

Let's not talk about this specialty ...

The main specialties are silverware and jade, Pu 'er tea, woodcarving. Girls' clothes have national characteristics.

Old Town of Lijiang has been a market for silverware and jade since ancient times. Ornaments are not only fashionable, but also cheap. Generally, they can be bought for ten or twenty dollars, and there are hundreds of expensive goods.

Those thousands of jade ornaments and silverware ... must be identified! Otherwise, you will easily suffer!

I finally finished ... more than an hour ... Tashildler ~!
