We'll see. Yunnan tourism. Travel notes for 6 days and 5 nights.

The south of the colorful clouds is called Yunnan. The previous understanding of Yunnan was only from hearsay. It was not until this trip that I really understood it, appreciated it and felt its unique charm.

Kunming

Coincidentally, my best friend and I started this trip to Yunnan. It was two or three in the morning when I got off the plane. The airport pick-up master delivered it on time and sent a fiery red carnation, which was my first impression of Kunming. The hospitable Kunming people and colorful flowers attract tourists from all over the world to stop and feel.

In this trip, it is particularly interesting that everywhere we go, there will be a different mainstream ethnic group, and the names of men and women in this mainstream ethnic group will change. The ethnic groups here in Kunming are mainly Yi people. They call women Ashima and men Haig, which is a common name regardless of age. In line with the principle of doing as the Romans do, we also call local men, women and children.

The first stop of the trip is Naigu Stone Forest. According to the tour guide, there are two famous stone forests in Kunming, one of which is Naigu Stone Forest. Compared with another stone forest, Naigu Stone Forest has more obvious natural traces and is a tourist attraction that has just been developed in recent years. Naigu is a Sani language of Yi people, which means ancient and black. There is a famous Castel landform here. There are many stone pillars, tall and dense, mostly castle-shaped, tower-shaped and mushroom-shaped. The tallest stone pillar is more than 40 meters, simple and rugged, magnificent, array of strange stones, vast as a forest, famous for its grandeur. This grotesque stone looks like a wild dinosaur, a pig with a daughter-in-law, or a meeting in butterfly lovers, where you can spread your imagination and roam freely. Climb to the top of the mountain, overlooking many stone pillars and enjoying the whole picture of Nai Ancient Stone Forest. Even more amazing, the land here is red. For people born and raised in the north, they are used to the yellow land and are still a little excited to see the red land.

Dianchi Lake at this stop, as the largest tourist lake in Yunnan, is definitely worth a visit. Every winter, the red-billed seagull, a migratory bird from Siberia, comes to Dianchi Lake for the winter with the change of seasons. They come every year 165438+ 10, and leave for Siberia in March of the following year. It's a pity that it's June and there are no seagulls, but it doesn't matter. We enjoyed the breeze on the shore. Very comfortable.

In the evening, we came to Chuxiong, a small town in Kunming, to taste the local food. Yunnan Chuxiong Mushroom Hotpot has complex terrain, diverse forest types and different soil types, and is rich in wild mushroom resources. Chuxiong mushroom hotpot is one of the six great cuisines in Yunnan, which is different from Sichuan spicy hotpot. This hot pot is made of wild mushrooms such as termites. The ingredients are ecological, savored and very delicious. Suitable for people with light taste, they will be full if they are not careful.

Dali

At the second stop, we arrived at the ancient city of Dali. We didn't know there was such a city in Dali until we read "Eight Dragons". Later, we learned that Mr. Jin Yong had never been here when he wrote this book, but it was really admirable that he could write such a realm. The ancient city of Dali was built in the 15th year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty, and it bears the historical culture, religious culture and national culture of Dali. We went all the way to go on road trip, visited ancient buildings and felt the unique customs of Dali.

The mainstream ethnic group in Dali is Bai nationality, and the address for girls is Jinhua, and the address for boys is A Peng. I guess their names mean that girls are as precious as gold and as beautiful as pictures, and boys spread their wings like eagles. Bai people, white clothes, white brick walls, pavilions and pavilions complement each other, and an elegant picture is displayed in front of them.

Dali is famous for its beautiful scenery, that is, the upper customs wind, the lower customs flowers, and the lower customs wind blows the upper customs flowers; Cangshan snow, Erhai moon, Erhai moon shines on Cangshan snow. This also refers to women's headdresses. Their clothes are decorated with white main lining, and the bright lace is very ethnic. Shangguanfeng means that there is a long white wool on the left side of their headdress, which swings with the wind when walking, which is very beautiful. Shimonoseki refers to the camellias, azaleas and other flowers on their headdresses. Flowers follow people, and people accompany flowers; Cangshan snow refers to the white hair at the top of the headdress of Bai girls, which is as dazzling as the white snow at the top of Cangshan. The decorative modeling of Erhai Moon refers to a crescent moon, especially the colorful lace and the crescent moon reflected in Erhai Lake complement each other. So poetic.

Soon we came to the Bai folk house, which has unique characteristics. A house with three sides and one wall, one wall forms a yard, and the structure of the house is mostly wood. Listening to the tour guide, it is said that this wall faces the door. The house can't face the gate. If the house is facing the gate and the front and back are transparent, it will take away the blessing. The function of watching the wall is to seek good fortune and avoid evil, and to be blessed. Wall is an indispensable part of building construction, and different parts have different decorations? Style and name. According to the orientation, there are several types, such as house wall, wind-fire wall and fence. What's a wall? The main body supporting the roof consists of three parts: stone feet, ground floor and floor. Is there a ram on the wall? Earth wall, earth wall, stone wall. I can't describe the architectural beauty of Dali in words. I'll only draw a part for the time being. Only those who go in person can feel its beauty.

Tie-dyeing of Bai nationality is also a unique process of Bai nationality. They first tied up the desired pattern, and then dyed the cloth with plant juices of various colors, among which the most commonly used juice is Banlangen juice. Our understanding of Radix Isatidis still stays in the medicinal aspect. Unexpectedly, it can also be used as a pure natural dye, and there are various other colors of juice. Due to my limited memory, I also forgot what kind of juice this is. We are lucky to choose a pattern we like to try the magic of tie-dyeing. I chose a pattern of Piggy Peggy, which is still a semi-finished product. I went to the back room to ask Grandma Bai for help, and tied them along several colored dots with numbers on them to prevent them from being confused with others in the tie-dyeing process. Then I passed the tie-dyeing master and threw the tie-dyed cloth into the dye vat. Approaching, I smelled the smell of tie-dyed water. The master explained that the water generally does not change and naturally stinks, but the color of Radix Isatidis is tasteless, and it will disappear after several times of washing. When the master dries the tie-dyed cloth, we will find our own cloth to take out the stitches. Because it is not fixed yet, the hand will turn blue when it is removed, which makes us laugh and cry. After the demolition, the finished pattern is vividly displayed in front of us.

Next, I went to Erhai Lake, one of my favorite places. I visited Erhai Lake by jeep, which was very enjoyable. The first thing I saw was not Erhai Lake, but colorful jeeps, yellow, red, blue and gold, in sharp contrast to the monotonous background behind me. Highlight the unique style. Drivers are mostly strong young people. Because they have to endure the sun exposure every day, they all wear sunglasses, and some also wear scarves and masks with ethnic customs. They started the car, running all the way, and felt the speed and passion of the real version. Of course, one function of the jeep is to take pictures. How to use such a beautiful car without taking pictures? So we pedestrians started a crazy pat mode. The photos taken are particularly dazzling and beautiful. With Erhai Lake as the background and people as the main body, a group of beautiful trips are impressively presented in the photos, recording beautiful moments. Standing on the shore of Erhai Lake, the wanton wind blows the hair and enjoys the pure beauty endowed by nature.

Lijiang

We arrived at the next stop, Lijiang. The mainstream ethnic group in Lijiang is Naxi, who call women "fat girls" and men "fat brothers". Along the way, the appellation of our present ethnic minorities always carries the appellation of "elder brother" and "younger sister". About the same as my brother and sister. Head for destination Yulong Snow Mountain. In this sultry summer, it is best to climb Yulong Snow Mountain. Under the Yulong Snow Mountain, we felt the air over 2000 meters above sea level. As the altitude rises, we feel the temperature drop gradually. Every time the altitude rises 100 meters, the temperature drops by 0.6 degrees Celsius, and the gradual change of temperature is felt for the first time. Fortunately, we listened to the arrangement of the tour guide and brought down jackets. The weather is bad, and it rains in Mao Mao. We took a cable car from the mountainside to the 4506-meter Yulong Snow Mountain. Unfortunately, the weather was bad and we couldn't see the lush trees below on the cable car. After reaching the top of the mountain, I felt as if I were in the clouds, surrounded by fog and snow. How amazing! It just snowed like a hail, and not everyone could catch it, so I was lucky. Climb about 100 meters to reach the highest peak of Yulong Snow Mountain. Because of altitude sickness, I can't climb any more, leaving a little regret. It's not that you climbed to the top, you conquered nature, but that you challenged yourself in the process and reached more than 4500 meters, which I will never forget.

It is often said that life is like a trip, you don't have to care about the result, but only about the scenery along the way and the mood of watching it. Therefore, travel is also like a period of life, in which you feel life and laugh at life. A trip to Yunnan. I'm glad you came.
