Here, Bian Xiao Life Home has specially prepared a life home travel guide for you who want to travel.

q: when is the best time to go to Lijiang?

A: Go to Lijiang at different times and visit different scenic spots! When you go to Tiger Leaping Gorge in winter, you won't feel the thrilling momentum because of the lack of water, but it is a good time to go to Meili to see Rizhao Jinshan. In mid-May, the shrub rhododendron in Xiaozhongdian bloomed very well, but it was a month late to see the alpine rhododendron. The grass sea in Lugu Lake will be beautiful in June and July, but the rainy season is coming, and the road in Lugu Lake may not be easy. There are flowers and grass in Lashihai in spring and summer, which is a good time to race horses and experience the ancient tea-horse road. Autumn and winter are the best time to watch migratory birds. Plus the time spent in a daze in the ancient city, the scenery in Lijiang is hard to see.

can you tell me some ways to get to Lijiang?

A: There are airports and buses in Lijiang, and the trains are temporarily closed. There are direct flights to Lijiang from Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen every day. Chongqing has direct flights to Lijiang every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. Chengdu has direct flights to Lijiang every Tuesday and Friday. Other cities can go to Kunming first, and then fly to Lijiang. (Of course, local consultation is needed. There are no trains in Lijiang. There are buses in Kunming that go to Lijiang on the day shift and night shift. It takes about 8-1 hours. After arriving at Lijiang New Town Bus Terminal, if you take a taxi around 7 yuan to the entrance of the ancient city police station, the inn will usually send a young lady to pick up the guests with her bag.

q: why is it not fun for me to come to Lijiang with a group?

a: if you stay in a hotel or hotel-style inn in Lijiang, you will not feel the charm of the ancient city. It's no fun to come to Lijiang with a group of acquaintances, and you can't feel the Yunnan style when traveling with a group. You'd rather visit several places at a time and experience the original flavor of Yunnan. When visiting scenic spots, it's best to find a trusted innkeeper to contact the chartered car and other matters. Because the inn is continuously operated by repeat customers and word of mouth, it will be responsible to the guests to the end. Generally speaking, it is better to ask the local innkeeper something than the tour guide. Naxi Pure Land Inn strongly does not recommend going out to play in rainy days, nor does it recommend arranging the time too tightly like driving ducks to the shelves. For example, during this time, the snow-capped mountains are often blocked by fog, but they are suitable for riding. Then go to Lashihai or Shangri-La first, and then visit the Snow Mountain next time. It's still boring to spend four or five hundred dollars to see a fog. In fact, Lijiang has many natural scenery, so it will be very happy to choose scenic spots suitable for the season. There is no need to be too demanding.

q: I take a taxi from the passenger station to Lijiang, and some taxi drivers will say that the inn is their home, so I live very cheaply. Is this credible?

A: Many guests who take a taxi from the passenger station to Old Town of Lijiang will meet the taxi driver and say that the inn is their home, which is very cheap and let them stay. However, some people believe it. I'm really speechless about this childish lie. What a coincidence! I have my own inn, and I have to work hard as a taxi driver to make a living. How to ensure the quality of Lijiang Inn? Seriously, how can an inn like this, which attracts customers by lies, be famous? Guests who are deceived by such lies will regret it 1% after seeing the pure land of Naxi. In addition, there is a self-help project in the first bay of the Yangtze River called the first drift of the Yangtze River, which is super boring. The water is too quiet. It's not drifting nonsense at all. It is strongly recommended not to go there.

q: I am in poor health. Will I have altitude sickness in Lijiang? If there is no response in Lijiang, can I go to a scenic spot with a higher altitude?

a: Lijiang scenic spot is rich in vegetation, and altitude sickness will not be very strong. However, if you want to go to a scenic spot with an altitude of more than 3, meters, you must have a rest in Lijiang for a few days to adapt to the transition period of altitude sickness. Lijiang itself is at an altitude of 241, and there is generally no altitude sickness. Some people may have snow mountain, and Meili Snow Mountain may also have altitude sickness.

q: what are the main factors in choosing an inn? Will staying in a hotel be more comfortable and enjoyable?

a: there are hotels everywhere. If you stay in a hotel in a place like Old Town of Lijiang, it's really a waste of time. As China and even the world-famous Old Town of Lijiang, staying in an inn is not only to solve the problem of accommodation and sleeping, but also a way to experience the unique Naxi culture and customs of the ancient town and integrate yourself into the whole of Old Town of Lijiang. There are hundreds of inns in Gucheng Inn at present, with rooms with a price difference of more than ten or twenty yuan. You should still be able to find them if you look for them more. In fact, additional services are standard rooms for measuring prices, such as sound insulation, sanitation, quietness and location. Any one neglected by the innkeeper will cause indirect losses to the guests of more than ten dollars.

q: do I have to pay the Gou Wei fee in Old Town of Lijiang?

a: the ancient tour fee has been bundled with most of the surrounding scenic spots, and all visitors to Lijiang have to pay it. Most tourist units in the ancient city go through the formalities of collecting ancient tour fees. Naxi Jingdi Inn can charge the ancient tour fee, and you can visit all the scenic spots with one payment. The maintenance fee of the ancient city is mainly responsible for the protection and management committee of the ancient city, which is mainly used for the construction and repair of Old Town of Lijiang after the hearing and the approval of the provincial and municipal governments.

q: what are the delicious snacks in Lijiang?

a: to be honest, Lijiang snacks recorded in major travel books are rarely delicious. Lijiang Baba is a sesame seed cake without ingredients, and crossing the bridge rice noodles is a bowl of chicken soup, not to mention the others. Even most Naxi natives are used to the improved Naxi cuisine close to Sichuan cuisine. In Lijiang's delicious restaurants, there are ribs and potato chicken in Xiangshan market. The technical level of Shitiantian Jianghu Restaurant on Wuyi Street in the ancient city is relatively stable, especially its spiced chicken wings, fish-flavored eggplant seeds, iron plate tofu, spicy chicken and braised pig's trotters. There are also bacon shops and pickles shops. You can also try fried potatoes and boiled mushrooms at roadside stalls. As for the dried yak meat sold everywhere in the ancient city, you can buy it at the price of ordinary dried beef, which is generally ten or twenty yuan a catty. A more detailed strategy of eating, drinking and having fun can be found on Lijiang Sunflower Collection. It is worth noting that when you first came to Lijiang, you might not have a good appetite because of acclimatization, but after you get used to it for a few days, your appetite will increase greatly, because the water in Lijiang contains alkali, which is helpful for digestion.

q: what local cultural performances are there in Lijiang?

A: The main cultural performances in Lijiang are lishui sands, Luban Road Rao and Naxi Ancient Music. Among them, lishui sands appeared in the form of minority costumes. It contains three paragraphs, namely, a great club, a wedding and a double suicide, which show the folk customs of more than a dozen ethnic minorities in Yunnan. Personally, I think it is the most worthwhile performance in Lijiang. Luban Rao shows the ancient Naxi national culture, and is adapted from two thousand-year-old Naxi epics, The Battle of Black and White and Lu Ban Lu Rao. It describes a bloody war between blacks and Bai people a long time ago. The ancestors of these two tribes predicted that blacks and whites would not get married. By chance, the black princess fell in love with the white prince, thus giving birth to a beautiful love story. Naxi ancient music consists of White Sands Fine Music, Cave Classics Music and Imperial Classics Music (now lost). It is integrated with Taoist rites and music, Confucian rites and music, and even Ci and Qupai music in Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties, forming its unique charm. It is called the fossil of music and one of the oldest music in the world. The above three performances are all performed every night, and you need to make an appointment one day in advance. Most ancient city inns offer discounts below the par price of 2 yuan.

Are there any good local songs

Q: When going out to play, some fortune tellers or tribal wise people are very accurate. Can they buy tokens?

A: The common scams in Lijiang include the young monk in Black Dragon Pool, the nameless drugstore in Shangri-La, the aunt who lets tourists ride on the snowy mountain, deceiving tourists that an inn is the driver of its own passenger station, and the ancient city silverware store sells ordinary bracelets with a dozen dollars into hundreds of sterling silver bracelets. Because Lijiang's travel regulations are strict, there will be no forced buying and selling, so there are some scams like fortune telling and Tibetan family visits. Fortune telling is actually just psychology. The essence of true religious worship lies in understanding the beauty and gratitude of life, which cannot be achieved by spending a lot of money on tokens or incense sticks. Naxi suggested that so much money should be donated to children in poor mountainous areas of Yunnan.

q: how does Lijiang distinguish between off-season and off-season?

a: Lijiang is the only ancient city in China listed as a world cultural heritage. In fact, there will be many people in the off-season, just in the peak season. If you don't book in advance, you may not even be able to stay in a room. As long as it is a public holiday, it belongs to the peak season, such as the summer vacation in July and August, the May 11th Golden Week, the Spring Festival is the most expensive, and other seasons are considered off-season. Average house price in off-season is 6 yuan -15 yuan, and average house price in peak season is 2 yuan -38 yuan. In fact, as long as it is a public holiday, it is a peak season, and other times are off-season. Compared with other tourist attractions in China, Lijiang is not in the off-season, and new visitors will feel that there are still many people. The difference between Lijiang off-season and off-season is that there are many people in peak season.

Q: There are actually hundreds of inns in Old Town of Lijiang. Don't you have to rush to book in the off-season

A: It is precisely because there are hundreds of inns in Old Town of Lijiang, which are mixed with good and bad, so it is more important to know more about them before going out. In the off-season, many inns may have vacancies, but there are not many inns with good service quality. Many good inns are the same as tourists in the off-season and peak season, and few have such a good reputation. Don't think that the inn is just a place to stay. Don't think that the inn is simply cheap. For Old Town of Lijiang, the inn actually has a lot of contents, which largely represents the internal classics of Naxi Siheyuan. Don't just look at the price, but also look at the cost performance.

q: can you introduce lashihai?

a: this is the first nature reserve named after a wetland in Yunnan province. La is the translation of Gunasi. La is a barren dam, and the city is new, which means a new barren dam. At present, there are 57 species of birds in Lashihai Wetland, and about 3, birds come here for the winter every year, including 9 species of endemic, rare and endangered birds, including the spotted geese endemic to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, merganser, black-necked crane and Hei He, which are the first-class protected birds in the country. As long as it doesn't rain all the year round, Lashihai is a good season for riding and boating, because Lashihai is an ancient tea-horse road used by caravans, and because grasslands and wetlands alternate, it will feel different. There are about 3, migratory birds and 57 species of migratory birds in Haila every year. So Lashihai is also a paradise for birds, which shows the environmental charm of Lashihai.

Q: Can you tell us something about Meili Snow Mountain and Rain Collapse?

a: Meili Snow Mountain is also known as the Prince of Snow Mountain. The most striking scenery is Rizhao Jinshan. Generally, after reading Mei Li, you don't need to see Yulong, because it's not a grade at all. Located between the Nujiang River and Lancang River in the middle section of Hengduan Mountain, about 1 kilometers northeast of Deqin County, Yunnan Province, there are 13 peaks with an average elevation of more than 6 meters, which are called Prince Thirteen Peaks. Carvajal Slope, the main peak, is as high as 674 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak in Yunnan. Yubeng is a Tibetan natural village at the foot of goddess peak in Meili Snow Mountain, which feels like a paradise on earth. It is the epitome of Shangri-La. Shen Yu Waterfall has always been a sacred place for Tibetan Buddhism. Every year, thousands of believers come from Tibet, Sichuan, Qinghai, Gansu and other places to worship. There are mainly four or six-day tours in Merixi

A: Lugu Lake is picturesque, and most of the guests who have been there say it is beautiful, but it is a long drive. It takes more than 7 hours for a one-way trip, and it takes 18 turns. When passing through every corner, other drivers are playing drift, and they are excited to drift on the edge of the cliff. Almost every female guest feels it with her eyes closed. In addition, there are many gravel roads in Lugu Lake, which are not flat roads, but rather bumpy. Well, after spending so much saliva, it's not to stop everyone from going, but to make everyone fully prepared to travel.

Q: Does Lashihai have any riding and rowing skills?

A: Lashihai is an international wetland park, where thousands of migratory birds spend the winter, but there are some places that need attention to make you have more fun ~ ~ First, hold the reins with one hand and the saddle with the other, and learn to control the reins. Pulling to the left means walking to the left, and pulling to the right means walking to the right. Pulling back desperately is to stop the horse (it is best to bark a few times ~ that means stop in Naxi language) and make it stop. Pull the reins to the left to make the horse go left, pull the reins to the right to make the horse go right, and pull the reins back to stop the horse. When you want to go to the Blue Moon Valley, the first country in Yulong, there will be a racecourse. The groom can organize the racecourse and run it several times (if the groom won't let you run, you can contact the baby to complain about it. If your horse doesn't run well, you can let the groom change his head and play first, and then change back to your own horse when you are really on the road). This feeling is definitely 1 times better than ordinary riding. When riding a horse, you can't put small items in your pocket. If you fall to the ground, you will scare the horse. Any scenic spot may encounter weather changes, so please be prepared. Never row a boat when it is cold. It's best to ride back or have a horse ride back. There are many routes in the racecourse, and the most important one is two routes. One is a sightseeing route around the lake, covering the most colorful scenic spots in this season. More suitable for guests who don't know how to ride horses. While slowly mastering horseback riding, you can travel around the mountains. One is the horse racing self-help route, which is more suitable for guests who already know how to ride horses. You can ask the racecourse to give you a first-class fierce horse with a more active temper and likes to run.

q: can you tell us some advantages and disadvantages of Dali ancient city and Shuhe ancient city?

a: there are only a few streets in Dali ancient city. Not many people are not suitable for playing, but they are suitable for permanent residence. Most people who want to play say that they are not as good as Old Town of Lijiang. And many scenic spots in Dali were developed together. Tickets may be cheap, but tickets will be more expensive. Only the bars and inns near Jiuding Longtan and Ada Lane in Shuhe Ancient Town feel more natural and primitive, and the surrounding areas are basically modeled after Dayan Ancient Town. In addition, due to the lack of competition, the commodity price of Shuhe is relatively higher than that of Lijiang.

q: the shogunate and the black dragon pool (Yuquan park) are said to be very famous. Are they interesting?

a: the shogunate is a miniature version of the forbidden city. If you have already paid for the ancient tour, it is still worth going. If you have not paid for the ancient tour, it is not worth it. 1% of people who have been to Black Dragon Pool say that tickets to 3 yuan and 6 yuan are not worth it, but climbing Xiangshan Mountain can get into Black Dragon Pool for free.

q: it is said that riding on a snowy mountain can evade tickets?

A: There are some aunts or "dirty-hearted" inns in the ancient city, who will take the initiative to ask you if you want to go to Yulong Snow Mountain or ride a horse, and then tell you that Yulong Snow Mountain can ride a horse from Houshan to avoid tickets. In fact, Yulong Snow Mountain can't evade tickets at all. At most, the military officer's card or student's card can be discounted, and you can't see any classic scenic spots in the snow-capped mountains when riding. Many people are cheated because the price is cheap and they can play horseback riding and snow-capped mountains. Sounds like a good deal. In fact, Yulong Snow Mountain is absolutely inescapable. Riding more than 4, meters is definitely a torment and unrealistic. Don't be fooled by thinking that you can evade tickets just because you are greedy and cheap. More comfortably,
