From Ya 'an to Dali, not only Panzhihua was seen, but Cheng Hai was also discovered.

Last stop, Dali. Ya 'an to Dali, 768 kilometers, about 12 hours.

The first six hours of this road was particularly easy to walk, with smooth traffic and wide roads. Because some sections of the Beijing-Kunming Expressway were closed, the navigation directly re-planned the route, so I listened to the navigation honestly at that time, so I had no choice.

One of the key points: Panzhihua

Panzhihua City, the only prefecture-level city named after the flower name, has made me yearn for it for a long time. What does Panzhihua look like? Isn't this city beautiful? No, the beauty of the name is only the appearance. The famous Panzhihua Iron and Steel Company is here, and the famous climbing coal building is accompanied all the way. How beautiful can a place with large steel and large coal mines be? Maybe it's just a name.

Wrong. Panzhihua is actually kapok, which is a flower on the kapok tree. The color of the flowers is red, so it is also called the cotton tree. Some people also call it the hero tree, the Banzhi tree and the Kibera tree (ancient name). It's really beautiful.

This city used to be an important transportation hub and a distribution center for trade materials on the "Southern Silk Road". Panzhihua is rich in tourism resources and diverse, and the city is also in transition, from steel and coal to changing the environment for the elderly.

For example, Hong Ge Hongshan International Kangyang Community has been deeply involved in the sunshine and healthy lifestyle for many years, from sightseeing, to experiential vacation, to immersive life, empowering daily life with multiple values, providing all-age and whole-family life care for Hongshan family members, and providing all people who love life with a "day by day" life experience.

Another example is Hongge Sketch Base, which is located in Xigeda Village, Hongge Town. It is the "beautiful countryside Demonstration Village" in Panzhihua City and Yanbian County, just like Jiaju Tibetan Village that we walked through. In fact, this village is also very beautiful, with scattered rooms, white walls and blue tiles, flowers and trees in the courtyard, and beautiful folk customs. It is an excellent place for painters to sketch and collect wind.

Also, if you have enough time, you can go to Miyi Sun Valley, where there is a vast sea of flowers and mountains.

In addition, Panzhihua Mustard Salad is the "south gate" of Panzhihua, an ancient village and town, and was once an important stop on the ancient tea-horse road and the Silk Road. The buildings in the whole village are unified into maroon, as if the scene of Dege ancient town on the 317 line reappears, and it is colored with the taste of Dafo College.

point two: national highway 353.

this is a national road lesson that must be said. After doing my homework, I saw National Highway 353, crossed Panzhihua, and started to enter National Highway 353 from Huaping. At first, I only reported 8 kilometers, and then I reported 1 kilometers, all of which were gravel and dirt roads. I didn't expect 1 kilometers behind, countless big trucks, and a car accident in which two Sichuan armies robbed the road. I was nervous and shut up all the time!

according to the statistics, this national highway has traveled 89.4 kilometers for nearly three hours, sweating all over, and it is painful to hold my urine. (1) or ignore the national highway, thinking that it will not be worse than other national highways, and it is actually the worst. It is best to have a rest in Panzhihua online service area when doing homework.

the third point: enter Chenghai Lake in Lijiang

and walk through the difficult National Highway 353, which shocked the Sichuan Army to grab a road accident, calmly and carefully broke through the pit of the stone beach, and finally saw the Taoyuan Jinsha River Bridge, which was a bit elegant and generous, overlooking us through hardships.

keep going, and the Erhai blue suddenly blooms in front and on the right! Erhai Lake? Is the geographical location wrong? No ... Find a place to park. There are no two identical leaves in the world, let alone the same Erhai Lake!

This is Chenghai Lake in Yongsheng County under Lijiang!

Chenghai Lake, commonly known as "Black Fog Sea", is located in the middle of Yongsheng County, Lijiang City, Yunnan Province, 46 kilometers away from Yongsheng County, with a length of 2 kilometers, a north-south trend, an average width of 4 kilometers, a maximum water depth of 36.9 meters and a water surface elevation of 1,53 meters. It is one of the three major lakes in the world where spirulina naturally grows.

Chenghai Lake, without commercial tourism development, is a natural ecological lake and the second largest freshwater lake in western Yunnan.

Maojiawan by Chenghai Lake is the place where Mao Taihua, the ancestor of Shaoshan Mao Shi, lived and left his descendants. Up to now, there are more than 3, descendants of Mao Shi who are homologous to Shaoshan Mao Shi. Chenghai Lake is also rich in ethnic customs. The "Knife and Pole Festival" of the Yi people living in Jin Lan Village near the lake is thrilling and breathtaking.

There are only three waters in the world where this kind of algae grows, one is Lake Tuskego in Mexico, the other is Lake Chad in Africa, and the third is Chenghai in Yongsheng County. In 1985, the research group of "Ecological Investigation of Alpine Lakes" of Yunnan University first discovered the spirulina produced by Chenghai. Every year around the Tomb-Sweeping Day Order, Chenghai Lake changed from clear to blue-green, giving off a special fragrance, commonly known as "perfume noodles". It is said that the natural spirulina is called "water bloom". I really didn't know that Shui Mu Tsinghua didn't smell like this, but I was really amazing, amazing in the Tsinghua of water.

The fourth point: I finally arrived in Dali

From Chenghai's dream, I galloped to the Erhai Lake. It was still sunny in Gavin Gao, and the familiar intimacy and silent whisper slipped through my footsteps. Erhai Lake, I came back, Cangshan Mountain, I came back, and I resisted the temptation and returned to your side.
