"The first place where the sun shines is Jiantang in the East, and the most beautiful place in the world is Shangri-La on the banks of the Nittle River." Many years ago, "Lost Horizon" aroused my infinite fascination with Shangri-La. Recently, after catching a glimpse of the countless beautiful scenery hidden in the Hengduan Mountains and glacial landforms hidden in the Qinghai-Tibet Line and Sichuan-Tibet Line in "Scenery of China", I couldn't help but be greedy and immediately planned a trip to Yunnan early. Deliberately avoid the National Day holiday and choose the Mid-Autumn Festival, counting the holidays and holidays for a total of 9 days. Browsing countless strategies on the Internet, it turns out that the effect is not very great. Fortunately, I later directly consulted the local outdoor club route information with a good reputation. I learned from the club that Meri was building roads, and there was little snow in the season, so I revised the original route and gave up Meri and Mingyong. It turned out to be a wise move, and on the way back to Lijiang from Shangri-La, he met the group that had worked hard to rush to Meili, and the feedback was that he saw nothing, extremely tired and disappointed. After careful consideration, I chose the Shanghai-Lijiang-Shangri-La-Xishuangbanna-Shanghai itinerary, and booked air tickets and hotels online one month in advance. After booking your itinerary, check the local climate and prepare appropriate clothing and necessities. When going out, you must eventually bring medicines such as colds, fevers, coughs, stomach pains, diarrhea, and trauma. One of the eighteen monsters in Yunnan says "three mosquitoes on a plate", so it is especially reminded that it is best to bring anti-mosquito bite medicine. Yunnan has a high altitude and strong vision, so sunscreen products are necessary. Lijiang has a big supermarket, but the snacks are not high-grade, and the requirements are high, such as good chocolate, what you need to bring in advance. Cash is appropriate, and it is more convenient to withdraw money from ATMs in Lijiang, but it is inconvenient to withdraw money in the Shangri-La area, and ordinary restaurants only accept cash. In view of the lessons of Sanya's counterfeit currency a few years ago, it was much more convenient to go to the bank in advance to exchange one, two thousand, ten yuan, and five yuan for each trip. It is also useful to look for a Yunnan tourist pass online, although not available for all attractions, but it can also save some money. Yunnan Province has many mountainous terrains and abnormal climate change, "it rains here and there is sunny; Wearing the same clothes in all seasons" is also the norm. Lijiang has a high prototype southwest monsoon climate, with low temperatures and a large temperature difference between day and night. July to September is the month when rainfall is more concentrated. The average annual temperature is 12.6°C-19.8°C, the average temperature of the hottest month is 18.1°C-25.7°C, and the average temperature of the coldest month is 4°C-11.7°C. After April, the number of tourists increases, with a small peak in May, a small peak in summer, and a peak period of tourism in November. Shangri-La is about 3,300 meters above sea level, belongs to the humid climate of the plateau, with large climate change in all seasons, large temperature difference between morning and evening, and strong wind. No matter what season you visit Shangri-La, you should have a warm jacket on hand. Spring, especially during the snowmelting period in early spring, is relatively cold and the temperature is about 5-20°C. Summer is the hottest season, but also the rainy season, the lake water is large, and there is often rain and collapse on the way, and the temperature is about 15-30 °C. Autumn is the most beautiful, with temperatures around 5-30°C. Winter temperatures are the lowest, with snow, and temperatures can sometimes reach minus 20°C. From November to March next year, Shangri-La Airport will be suspended. Late spring and early summer from May to July and autumn from September to October are the best time to travel to Shangri-La, the temperature and weather conditions during this period are the most suitable for travel, the flowers are open, the eyes are green grass and trees, the sky is endless blue, and the scenery is the most beautiful. Xishuangbanna is one of the few places in Yunnan Province that does not have winter, with an average temperature of 16°C in the coldest month of January and an average temperature of only 28°C at its hottest. Banna only has a dry season and a rainy season a year, so there is a saying that "long summer without winter, and one rain becomes autumn". From November to April of the following year, the temperature is relatively comfortable and lukewarm. If you travel to Xishuangbanna from June to September, you can taste a large number of local tropical fruits and taste fresh delicacies. May to October is the rainy season in Xishuangbanna, but the road conditions here are better and have little impact on tourism. Regarding travel shopping, my principle is to buy some fun casually for those with low value, and not to touch those with high value no matter how good they are. Previously, a colleague in Yunnan bargained and finally spent more than 2,000 yuan to buy a jade pendant, and when he returned to Shanghai, he met a person who knew the goods and identified the value of only 400 yuan. Therefore, those who do not understand the doorway, such as Pu'er, silverware, jade, etc., just watch and not play with it. Although Yunnan has no famous dishes, there are many snacks. And because of the abundance of natural products, many local foods sound a bit strange to us. "Grasshoppers can be used as snacks; Four bamboo rats and a sack", the bold can try mountain birds, and the timid can also eat rare mushrooms. Matsutake mushrooms, chicken fir and other high-quality wild mushroom markets can be found everywhere, buy back the inn stew soup or stir-fry, and bring it to your home at a reasonable price. Lijiang baba snacks may not be to our liking, but potatoes, corn, chickens, sheep and poultry, etc. planted or stocked at high altitudes taste much better than what we eat on weekdays. Our nine-day itinerary is as follows, and then slowly tell about the scenery and customs along the way. On September 17, Shanghai departed in the morning and arrived at Lijiang Dayan in the afternoon. On September 18, the ancient city of Dayan wandered around, and the light rain turned cloudy. On September 19, Shuhe Ancient Town strolled around, and it rained lightly. On September 20, in the morning, Dayan set off for Shangri-La, passing through the observation deck to overlook the two snow-capped mountains of Yulong and Haba; However, through the first bay of the Yangtze River, and then to the Tiger Leaping Gorge; After lunch, I jumped on the hike and arrived at Tianshengqiao Hot Spring in the evening, with sunny weather all the way. On September 21, I spent most of my time visiting Pudacuo Park, worshiping Songzanlin Temple in the evening, staying in the ancient city of Moonlight, and showers during the sunny days. On September 22, I visited Guishan Park and Napa Haila Grassland in the morning, and returned to Lijiang Dayan in the afternoon, with bright sunshine. On September 23, I wandered around before the morning of the big study, and in the afternoon I flew to Banna, and it was sunny in both places. On September 24, during the day, we visited the tropical rainforest valley, Dai villages, and the Big Buddha Temple, and at night we watched the performance in Manting Park, and the weather was sunny. On September 25, I wandered around Banna City, rainy weather, and flew to Shanghai late to end the journey. Three ancient towns in Lijiang: Dayan, the closest to the new city, the most commercialized, comprehensive facilities, and including Mufu, Wangulou, Heilongtan and other scenic spots, so tourists stay the most. Every street in the ancient city is full of inns with similar lintels but different interiors. In order to consider the convenience of parking for guests, usually the hotel is near the south gate, and there are also some near the big waterwheel in the north, and the highest grade is the Hefu Crowne Plaza Hotel (five-star) near the south gate. When tourism has become the pillar of the economy, at first glance, the Dayan will inevitably disappoint tourists who come with infinite reverie, and the feeling of being in the streets full of shops is no different from Zhouzhuang. However, the inn is indeed a unique scenery in Lijiang, and if you stay in it, you can feel the tranquility of home thousands of miles away. Mufu and Wangulou are the real ancient charm and essence of Dongba culture. visit Mufu and imagine the prosperity of thousands of years; Climb high in the Eternal Tower and meditate on the tranquility of all generations. Only then can you unveil the hustle and bustle of Dayan and taste the antiquity behind it. Shuhe, similar to a smaller version of Dayan, has the same pattern of radiating from Sifang Street as the center. It is relatively less noisy, but the hygiene and facilities are slightly inferior to Dayan, and there is no convenience for eating and entertainment. There are also more inns and shops, and the overall feeling is less ostentatious and a little quieter. The more famous hotels are Lishui Kangnian (good geographical location, right at the entrance of the ancient town) and Banyan Tree (very inconvenient for field trips). The victory is in a winding river, and the grass in the water is soft and floating, which suddenly reminds people of Xu Zhimo's "Farewell to Kangqiao". If you are tired of walking, choose a clear bar that is not too noisy, order a glass of Yunnan small grains, and half-lie in the afternoon sun flipping through magazines or taking a nap in a daze, which is really a soft time of idleness. There are performances of Naxi ancient music at specific times in the central square square, and you can also ride horses on the original ancient tea horse road. It's a pity: the Mid-Autumn Festival, the ancient road is cut off. There are still horses' hooves passing by, neighing in my old alleys. Contemplating the vastness of the past, it is truly sorrowful to see the past. The setting sun shines on the tiles in the west, and the sand falls into the sand. Baisha, a relatively poor town, has some stalls similar to antiques and shops made by locals along the streets. The white sand murals symbolizing the long-term Dongba culture are the only attractions, but tourists rarely visit. In the huge ancient city of Dayan, there are thousands of inns, and too many choices are also a burden. If you are traveling in the peak season, it is advisable to book in advance, and it is said that there has been a grand scene of "a thousand gold is hard to find a house" during the 11th Golden Week. In normal times, it is not too late to go door to door in the future. Or book a night in advance and change it after check-in. But there is still a big difference between an inn and a hotel after all. The facilities and supporting facilities of regular hotels are based on star ratings, and the services are specialized, so naturally they are the same everywhere. The characteristics of the inn are more reflected in the owner's ingenuity and close communication, which makes people feel comfortable at home. Of course, after all, you get what you pay for, and the gap in hardware facilities is also quite large for inns with quotations ranging from tens to thousands of yuan. It should be mentioned that staying in an inn, aside from the comfort of pure living, other gains such as understanding of local customs and customs, and planning your own route, depends on your own initiative to communicate with others. If you are lucky enough to meet an invisible "master", you may have an unexpected gain. Considering the convenience of travel, we chose to stay in Dayan Ancient City, and booked the Time Walking Inn (main store) in Chongren Lane, Qiyi Street for three nights in advance according to online reviews. The inn is run by a young couple in Shanghai, the proprietress is warm and talkative, we caught up with the opening of the new store during our stay, although we were not able to taste the well-known charcoal-grilled chicken wings, but we were fortunate to hear the design concept of the new store and visit the guest room layout one by one, I admire her low-key pursuit of details rather than simple, petty bourgeois creativity and taste. After Shangri-Ri returned to Lijiang, I visited many houses on the spot, and finally chose the standard room on the second floor of the Shangpeng Inn at No. 108, Section 81, Qiyi Street (the room is smaller than the time, in fact, there are probably not many in the ancient city inn that can be compared with the room area of the time), but the small yard is orderly, and it is the tatami mat that I like very much, and the cost performance of 180/night is also quite high. The owner's family is also a very cheerful and hospitable Kunming person, and the night of check-in happened to be the full night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, so several guests of honor gathered together and chatted very late. In particular, the proprietress has been running a Pu'er business for many years, so her tea is different from others. Even though I don't know the tea ceremony, I can tell the difference between lips and teeth. Pu'er might as well sleep, from cooked tea to raw tea, simply greedy for unlimited cups. My sister joked that I only stayed for one night after eating and drinking for nothing, which was really a loss to the boss. The inn life in Lijiang made me realize the mirror-like reflection and interaction principle between people. When we communicate with our owners with an active and trusting attitude and respect their suggestions and labor, we can feel at ease as at home. The innkeepers are all outsiders, and some local Naxi people do some service work in the inn. The two inns I stayed in had Naxi girls, who were diligent and honest, and a little shy when talking to guests. The native Naxi have only two surnames, "wood" or "he".According to legend, the Tusi family that ruled Lijiang at that time, after the Dali Duan regime was defeated by the Ming army in one fell swoop, in 1382 AD, "led the submission", held the ceremony of the ministers, was greatly appreciated by Zhu Yuanzhang, and was given the surname "wood", which means that the word "Zhu" takes a "person", and since then the traditional Naxi father-son joint name system has been changed from the Chinese name character. In order to maintain the nobility of the surname of its ruling group, the Mu Tusi implemented the system of "official surname Mu and people's surname He" in all social strata. The Dongba totem culture reflects the tradition of the Naxi people since ancient times that women are dominated by families, and to this day it is still "all dolls brought by men". Dayan Ancient City was originally formed in a rural market, and for thousands of years, the ancient tea horse road had to pass through important towns, and finally prospered due to commercial trade. It is rumored that because the Mu Tusi lived in the city, building a city was equivalent to adding a frame to the word "wood" to form a "trapped" word, which was tantamount to trapping the "wood", so the city wall was not built around the ancient city. To the north are the iconic stone carvings and waterwheels that symbolize Lijiang's inclusion in the World Heritage Site, to the south is the south gate of the hotel, and to the center of the city is Sifang Street, which is a commercial center and radiates in all directions. The ancient city is not big, and it takes about forty minutes to wander all the way from the south gate to the big waterwheel along the slightly uneven blue and limestone road. The noisy bar, which seems to not match the style of the ancient city but has attracted the attention of tourists, is built along the river on Xinhua Street leading south by the waterwheel. As night falls, the place where the eye is touched is full of sparkling shadows and red lights. The unrestrained, exaggerated, and even hot, sensational phantom of the song attracted countless interested guests, and the confused eyes after a few drinks could not tell whether they were intoxicated or expectant. Maybe this is the origin of Lijiang's romantic encounters? Five or six hundred years ago, the "Forbidden City" in Lijiang City, Mufu, was built in the southern corner of the city, contrary to the tradition of "respecting the center" of the Central Plains royal city. The orientation is not according to the Central Plains Feng Shui theory of "sitting north and facing south", but towards the sun and east. The east belongs to wood, and the sun and wood are worshippers in Naxi Dongba religion, and wood is also the surname given by the emperor to the Naxi people. Therefore, the idea of wanting to get the spirit of "wood" made the buildings of the Mufu take the direction of sitting west to east. The grandeur of the wooden mansion building, the glory of the palace, the exquisite carving, the exquisiteness of the components, and the brilliance of the paintings, which were built in the Ming and Qing dynasties, can only be glimpsed of the whole picture now. Mufu is the common name of Lijiang Mushi Tusi Yamen, which covered an area of more than 100 acres and nearly 100 buildings in its heyday, and was the heart of the ancient city of Dayan for 800 years. According to the "Chronicle of Lijiang Prefecture", the former Mufu Hall was majestic and rigorously laid out, with a length of 369 meters on the central axis alone, and there were halls such as the Council Hall, the Wanjuan Building, and the Protector Hall on the central axis, with houses on both sides, pavilions, and countless pavilions; Garden cloister with a chic style. Its overall architectural style is "built in imitation of the Forbidden City". Mufu is backed by Lion Mountain, and cypress trees are planted all over the mountain, and now there is a large ancient cypress forest preserved on Lion Mountain, which is the "Huangshan Ancient Cypress", one of the "Twelve Views of Lijiang". Lijiang's unique Mu Lao Ye wine is also sold only in Mufu, and is said to be the imperial wine of the Mu Tusi family. Using local specialties buckwheat and spring water flowing out of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, it is secretly made through multiple processes, and is only circulated in the Yamu Wangfu of the Mu Tusi Mansion, even the emperors of all dynasties and generations have never heard of it, let alone tasted it. Therefore, it is called: "Jade wine should only be in Lishui, and it is rare to hear it a few times elsewhere." The original box is made of pure imported wood, hand-carved by Naxi professional carvers, and the female genital totem above the wooden box is carefully carved with Naxi totem and Dongba script. It means to reproduce descendants and continue the race. Out of Mufu, climb in the direction of Lion Rock, and you will arrive at the iconic building of Lijiang, Wangulou. It is interpreted as "Millennium Wandai Building" in Dongba, and is called "Wengulun" in Naxi, which means to watch and enjoy the commanding heights, and because of its homonym, it is called "Wangulou". "Ten thousand" means overlooking the ancient city of Lijiang and its pastoral scenery, looking at the jade dragon snow mountain for ten thousand years, and also means that it is eternal and immortal. Wangulou is a tower-style five-eaves all-wooden structure with a height of 33 meters, symbolizing 330,000 people of all ethnic groups in the former Lijiang Naxi Autonomous County. The main columns have 16 pillars, all of which are wooden pillars, which are the first floor of China's all-wooden bucket arch building. The pillar is 22 meters long, reflecting the folk saying that "good things come in pairs" and the custom of choosing double days for marriage. The use of 16 pillars of Babel reflects the legend of the nine brothers of the opening of the sky and the seven sisters of the earth splitting in the Naxi Dongba hieroglyphs, implying that the sons and daughters of Naxi jointly create a better world. The plan of the Wangulou is square, with a width and depth of 18 meters, and four pairs of stone lions with different moods are placed at the entrances on all sides. There are 2,300 auspicious patterns painted in the building, representing 23 stone carvings of Lijiang, which means that the wind and rain are favorable and the grains are abundant in the agricultural season throughout the year. There are 9,999 carved and painted dragon patterns in the whole building, plus the dragon in the algae well on the roof, there are 10,000. The shape of the dragon opening its mouth on the roof reflects the legend that the dragon can spit out water, which is intended to have water to overcome fire and eliminate disasters. Climbing up to the Eternal Tower and looking into the distance, the tiled houses of the ancient city show a dark blue color that blends with heaven and earth, and the vastness is like a huge ink painting. Look around out of thin air, and see it at a glance: the ancient city houses with small bridges and flowing water in the east, the picturesque pastoral villages in the south, the city buildings with new looks in the west, and the magical and beautiful Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the north. September is the local rainy season, and wet clouds accumulate on the mountain peaks in rainy weather, making it difficult to see the peaks of the snow-capped mountains in the distance. We were very lucky, from Lijiang to Shangri-La in a few days to catch up with the sunny road, the scenery along the way was breathtaking, and the two snow-capped mountains of Haba and Yulong beckoned to us.The magnificent scenery of the first bay of the Yangtze River and the Tiger Leaping Gorge is at the junction of the two places. The first bay of the Yangtze River is located between Shasongbi Village and Shigu Town, Lijiang City, in the south of Shangri-La County, Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, at an altitude of 18 meters and 130 kilometers away from Shangri-La County. The Yangtze River rushes down from the "roof of the world" - the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, enters Yunnan through the territory of Batang County, and runs through the high mountains and deep valleys of the Hengduan Mountains together with the Lancang River and the Nu River, forming a magnificent landscape of "three rivers flowing together". Arriving at Shasongbi Village, there was a sudden sharp turn of more than 100 degrees, and it turned northeast, forming a rare "V" shaped bend. "The river flow has been reversed here and rushed into the Central Plains", which is known as "the first bay of the Yangtze River". The area around Shasongbi Village, with wide water, green river water, and green willows on both sides of the river, is an excellent terrain to watch the first bay of the Yangtze River. On the other side of Shasongbi Village is the famous historical city - Shigu Town. There are many beautiful legends about this, and it is said that the King of Wood once hid treasures in this area and left a poem, which said: "The stone man is against the stone drum, gold and silver are ten thousand five, who can guess it, and buy Lijiang Mansion." The "stone man" mentioned in the poem refers to the humanoid rocks by the river one mile north of Shasongbi Village, which can only be seen during the dry season of the river. The folk proverb vividly reminds the strategic significance of Shigu to Lijiang. The Shigu Ferry has a wide river surface and gentle water, suitable for ferrying, and 3 kilometers upstream of the river is Shimen Pass, which has always been known for its danger, and has always been a battleground for soldiers. The first bay of the Yangtze River is 50 kilometers away from Lijiang County, which is not only an important scenic spot in Lijiang, but also a hub connecting Tiger Leaping Gorge, Laojun Mountain, Meili Snow Mountain and other scenic spots. Tiger Leaping Gorge is in the northeast of Longpan Township, Yulong Naxi Autonomous County, Yunnan Province. The canyon is 16 kilometers long, the main peak of Yulong Snow Mountain on the south bank is 5,596 meters above sea level, and the silver peak is piercing the sky; The Haba Snow Mountain on the north bank is 5,396 meters above sea level, which is steep and abrupt; The river in the middle of the cliff is only 30 to 60 meters wide. The upper gorge of Tiger Leaping Gorge is 1,800 meters above sea level, and the lower gorge mouth is 1,630 meters above sea level, and the difference between the mountains and the river on both sides is 2,500 to 3,000 meters, and the valley slope is steep and spectacular. The river flows down 7 steep hurdles in a row in the gorge, with a drop of 170 meters, and the water is turbulent, and the sound can be heard for miles, making it one of the deepest canyons in the world. The Tiger Leaping Gorge is located in the upper reaches of the Jinsha River, with a total length of 16 kilometers, and is divided into three sections: upper tiger jumping, middle tiger jumping and lower tiger jumping. The canyon is the Yulong Snow Mountain in the east, the Haba Snow Mountain in the west, the vertical height difference of the canyon is 3790 meters, the narrowest part of the river, only about 30 meters, it is said that the tiger goes down the mountain, and a little foot on the reef in the river can be crossed in the air, so it is called the Tiger Leaping Gorge. Shanghu Leap is the narrowest section of the canyon, and its river center is majestic with a boulder, lying in the middle of the river, like a falling waterfall standing steeply in front of you, dividing the rapids into two, and the waves are shaking the sky. Legend has it that a tiger once borrowed the boulder from the heart of the river and jumped from the side of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain to the Haba Snow Mountain, so the stone was named Tiger Leaping Stone. The middle tiger jump is 5 kilometers away from the upper tiger jump, and the river surface drop is very large, and the "gypsophila" reef area is the most dangerous place here. In the 100-meter canyon, there are many reefs, turbulent water, and crashing waves. From the middle tiger jumps over the dangerous "talc", that is, to the lower tiger jumps. There is a huge deep ravine with a depth of 1 kilometer, which is close to the exit of the Tiger Leaping Gorge, which is the best place to enjoy the Tiger Leaping Gorge. Since ancient times, tigers have jumped in danger! The Yunnan poet Sun Mangweng of the Qing Dynasty wrote in the poem "Jinsha River": "Splitting the axe of the good city without a trace, flowing out of the plow ox to Li. A line is divided into two mountains to form a moat, and two mountains are flanked by a stone gate. "The tiger leaps and the natural danger contains breathtaking magnificence, attracting a large number of domestic and foreign "backpackers" to explore here. If you have good physical strength, it will take about two days for the whole tiger to jump up, middle and down, camping at night or staying at a farmhouse; with average physical strength, it takes about three hours to go back and forth on foot; If you only come to see the magnificent scenery, you can take the car directly to the lower tiger jump. "There are snow-capped canyons, resplendent temples, quiet lakes surrounded by forests, beautiful grasslands, and a sky as clear as a mirror, breathtakingly beautiful, and pure and hospitable people warmly welcome guests from afar; This is a holy land of religion and a paradise on earth. There are sacred snow-capped mountains, wildflowers everywhere, herds of cattle and sheep roaming, and rushing waterfalls dancing. Here, the sun and moon are anchored in your heart. She is the legendary Shangri-La. "Driving to Xiaozhongdian in the evening, we were extremely excited to be so close to the legend." There are still several herdsmen living there, but the village is red in the setting sun. "The Zhongdian grassland in autumn has no gorgeous Gesang flowers, which is unique and poetic and far-reaching; Occasionally, we see scattered houses and hidden houses, reminding us that such beauty is also a reality. The road to Shangri-La is flat and spacious, and I can't help but feel a true respect for the soldiers: with their dedication, we can easily go to the paradise in our hearts. If the beauty of Jiuzhai is a fairy tale, then the beauty of Shangri-La is a legend; Because fairy tales can be artificially interpreted, legends can only be created by heaven. Shangri-La is a wonderland left by God on earth, and Pudacuo is a hidden resort in Shangri-La. This national forest park is 22 kilometers away from Shangri-La County, consisting of two parts: the internationally important wetland Bitahai Nature Reserve and the Hongshan Area, a world natural heritage site of "three rivers flowing together", with an altitude of between 3,500 meters and 4,159 meters, with a total area of about 300 square kilometers. The park has geological landforms, lakes and wetlands, forest meadows, river valleys and streams, rare animals and plants, etc., and the original ecological environment is well preserved. "Pudacuo" is a Sanskrit transliteration, meaning "boat lake", which is the original Tibetan name of "Bita Sea". There is no pollution here, and the water and air quality meet national first-class standards. The lake is blue, the sky is blue, Lin Tao plays in the water, birds sing and flowers are fragrant, it is a paradise for photography enthusiasts.The park has mirror-like mountain lakes, pastures with beautiful water and grass, wetlands with blooming flowers, and primeval forests where birds and beasts often appear. Bita Sea and Suidu Lake, known as the pearls of the plateau, are also rich in rare split-bellied fish and double-lipped fish. The scenery varies throughout the year, and even ordinary cameras can produce excellent films. in spring, there are wonders of "cuckoo drunken fish" and "old bear fishing"; In summer, the mountains are full of birds and flowers; autumn is colorful and birds play; In winter, the snow-capped mountains and blue waves complement each other. Precious wild mushrooms such as matsutake mushrooms are also a specialty here, but unfortunately we are in mid-September, just past the picking season. Walking on the forest trail, with a lake on one side and a mountain on the other, squirrels in twos and threes or jumping by, as if returning to the mountain world in a childhood fairy tale. I couldn't help but feel childish, ignoring the altitude of the plateau, and ran for a while, picking two bunches of gorgeous wild fruits and picking a few unknown mushrooms. Walking to the end of the surrounding lake, it is a breathtakingly beautiful pasture. In the light and shadow, the blue sky is long, and the green mountains are lush and the grass is vast. I suspect it is a divine arrival that splashes emerald ink, only to see the yak painting in a daze. In the lazy afternoon sun, lie down on the soft grass to take a nap, look up at the blue sky and white clouds, surround the green mountains and green waters, and integrate with nature, which is as comfortable as heaven. 5 kilometers north of Zhongdian County, in front of Foping Mountain, the solemn building with an exterior layout similar to the Potala Palace stands on the mountain, which is the largest Tibetan Buddhist temple in Yunnan Province and the most famous temple of the Gelug sect in Tibet - Songzanlin Monastery. Songzanlin Monastery was completed in 1681 AD, and it is said that the temple site was determined by the Dalai Lama's divination and prayer to God, and the temple was named by the Fifth Dalai Lama, and was given the name "Naturalization Temple" during the Qing Yongzheng period. In the same style as the Tibetan Buddhist architecture, the two main halls of Songzanlin Monastery stand high in the center, and the eight major Kang ginseng, monks' quarters and other buildings are surrounded and guarded, high and low, layer by layer. The gilded copper tiles are colorful, and the palace is a horned beast with a cornice; The main hall is spacious and magnificent, enshrined in many Buddha statues; Quinta is tall and sacred, and the murals are beautifully carved; The palace overflowing with Buddha's light is resplendent. There are many treasures of the past dynasties in the Songzanlin Monastery, including eight gold-plated Buddha statues of Shakyamuni from the time of the Fifth Dalai Lama and the Seventh Dalai Lama, the Bayeux Sutra, the colorful gold juice finely painted thangkas, and various exquisite gilt or silver incense burners, eternal lamps, etc. Songzanlin Monastery is the highest institution of the integration system of state and religion in the region, and has become a special ashram for the "three treasures" of Buddha, Dharma and monks in Yunnan, Tibet and Sichuan and Tibet. Many devout believers worship from here to the Potala Palace in Tibet, and some even die on the way to the pilgrimage. Even though the three precepts of "hatred, greed, and foolishness" promoted by Tibetan Buddhism are incredible for those of us who live in the city, you have to be subdued by the power of this faith.　　 Located in the northwest of Zhongdian County, 8 kilometers away from the county seat is the Napa Sea Nature Reserve, a seasonal lake on the plateau. The reserve is 3,266 meters above sea level, the terrain is flat, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the snow in the mountains melts in spring and summer, winding from more than ten rivers such as the Naqu River and the Nippon River, flowing through the Illa grassland into the Napa Sea. In late summer and early autumn, rain falls frequently and the lake surface increases; From late autumn to the following summer and autumn, the lake water falls and the lake surface shrinks. Every time the autumn wind gradually rises, flocks of black-necked cranes, bar-headed geese, white cranes, yellow ducks, and hemp ducks arrive as scheduled, foraging and playing in the swamps by the lake. The humid climate of the reserve is suitable for the growth of pastures, and in spring, the grass is green, and the cattle, horses, and sheep grazing leisurely are either in their own herds, or mixed and intertwined, becoming a smart pattern on the verdant grassland. The autumn pasture is no longer so abundant, but the carmine-red wolf poisonous grass is like fog and smoke, the snow-capped mountains in the distance are tall and handsome, and the cattle and sheep nearby are lazy and content. It is located in the southwest, but it is very similar to the vast scenery of the northern frontier. At noon, the sun is shining, and horseback riding is comfortable, half of the sparkling ocean and half of the grassland moving in the wind. And the cost of horseback riding here is much cheaper than Lashihai. Xishuangbanna is an area with early tourism development in Yunnan, and the earlier impression of it was more to stay in the peculiar folk customs of ethnic minorities and Yang Liping's graceful peacock dance. Setting Banna as the last stop of our trip, we are also looking forward to experiencing the colorful tropical customs and customs. After leaving the airport, we went straight to the fruit market for the first stop, bought mangosteen, dragon fruit, passion fruit, star fruit, sweet horns, passion fruit and many other tropical fruits to take to the hotel, and dinner was satisfied. Perhaps because the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment. The study of hotel tourism strategies found that the permanent population of Jinghong urban area of Banna Prefecture is only more than 110,000, and there are only 2 bus lines in the city, but the scenic spots are far apart, and the attractions are basically privately contracted, and the ticket prices are expensive. Considering safety, we negotiated a charter car in the evening and set the rest of the itinerary. Because the chartered car accompanied me, I was not in a hurry, so I set off from the hotel at 9 o'clock the next day and drove to the tropical rainforest valley 60 kilometers away from the city to see the rare Kemu people. The Kemu people, who live in Yunnan, China and its bordering Laos, Vietnam, Myanmar and other countries, are still not included in our 56 ethnic groups due to their sparse population. Unable to communicate with the outside world, living in caves in the mountains and forests, following the primitive barter, young unmarried men live alone in a birdhouse on a tree. Banna, located on the southwestern border of Yunnan Province, is not as fast as going abroad. The car travels along the national highway leading to Bangkok, flanked by mountains full of tea and rubber. There are also people who work on the mountain, and it is really "the old lady climbs the mountain faster than the monkey". On the way back to the city, we visited a Dai village. The poor mountains and bad waters delegated by the educated youth back then now benefit from the rubber forest, and the life is very rich, and today's houses are rebuilt second-generation Dai residences, and many families have cars. Interestingly, the Dai people have a unified surname (dancer Dao Meilan is a noble surname), the woman's surname is Yu, and the man's surname is Yan (pronounced Guyin ai two sounds).It can be guessed that the Dai people are patriarchal, and they are all stones with different textures, which shows that jade is much more precious. Jinghong is a flat land surrounded by mountains, and the landmark building in the urban area is Mengle Big Buddha City located in Nanlian Mountain, which is built in accordance with the national 5A scenic spot specifications, which can be called the best Buddhist temple in Southeast Asia. Being under the seat of the Big Buddha is also the best location overlooking Jinghong City. Meng Le is a Dai language, that is, the Dai Kingdom, which translates to the Great Buddha Temple of the Dai Kingdom, which was restored and rebuilt on the original site of the royal temple "Jingpiao Buddha Temple" of the ancient Dai Dynasty. Founded in the Ming Dynasty, it was destroyed due to war during the Xianfeng period and was rebuilt in 2005, and is one of the landmark buildings of the Twelve Banna, a symbol of Southern Buddhism. Southern Buddhism has a profound impact on the politics, economy, culture and art of Dai society, the Dai people in Xishuangbanna believe in Southern Buddhism, Dai boys have to enter the temple to live as monks when they are 8-10 years old, they learn scriptures and literacy there, except for a very small number of people with wisdom roots, generally return home in 1-5 years, get married and have children as usual, so it is said that local "monks can fall in love". Every important festival such as the Songkran Festival, the Closing Festival, and the Open Gate Festival, the Dai family has to visit the Buddhist temple. The Big Buddha Temple covers an area of 650 acres, and the building is a splendid Thai style, with lush trees and flowers. We not only saw papayas with fruits, but also water lilies, dragon boat flowers, frangipani and other national flowers of several nearby countries, and many tropical flowers and trees were not named. Entering the temple gate, the first to arrive at the Prince's Square, the prince is Prince Gautama Siddhartha, the Buddha Shakyamuni before he became a monk. The square has a diameter of 29 meters, representing the prince's 29-year-old monk. The relief in front of the square is called "Nine Dragons Bathing Buddha", which describes the allusion to the birth of Prince Gautama Siddhartha. There are four steps from the statue of the prince to the Buddha on the top of the mountain, and the number of dragon heads decorated on both sides of each step is different, from bottom to top are nine dragons, seven dragons, five dragons, three dragons and one dragon, symbolizing different meanings. Next to the stone steps, there are several small temples such as the Thai Hall, the Sri Lankan Hall, the Burmese Hall, and the Lao Hall, among which the murals, statues, decorations, and configurations present the ethnic and religious characteristics of these Southeast Asian countries. The central Jingpiao Hall is based on the days when Shakyamuni Buddha became a monk, practice, and became a Buddha, and is 49 meters long, 29 meters wide and 35 meters high. The meaning is: Shakyamuni became a monk at the age of 29, practiced penance in the ascetic forest of Gaja Mountain by the Nirenchan River for six years, and at the age of 35, he sat under the Bodhi tree for seven days and forty-nine days, cultivated positive results, and became a Buddha. The roof and four walls inside the hall are beautiful murals, depicting the long story of the Buddha from birth to Buddhahood. Climbing to the highest point, the golden auspicious Buddha stands majestically. The Buddha is forged in brass, with a real height of 45 meters, a base side length of 35 meters, and a height of 9 meters, making it the largest Buddha statue in Southern Buddhism. The Buddha divided his hands and faced the Jinghong urban area, looking down peacefully on all living beings, protecting the peace and harmony of the entire Banna.
