Fancy Colored Yunnan

#Top Weekly#There are two beautiful legends about the origin of the name Yunnan. One says that one day Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty dreamed of a colorful cloud and chased it to Yunnan. The other is that during the Tang Dynasty, the Nanzhao envoys came to Chang'an to pay homage, and the Tang emperor asked where it came from and replied that it was in the Yunnan side. This cloud is Changan clouds or Dali clouds are irrelevant, let you imagine. Think of the south side of the colored clouds. Beautiful. Both stories are very moving and romanticize the beautiful and poetic name of Yunnan. Before I set foot in the South of Colorful Clouds, my impression of Yunnan is always associated with the word "fancy" in my mind. It's a very good idea to have a good time, and it's a very good idea to have a good time.

The impression that Yunnan is diverse. The diversity of geography, mountains, plateaus, large rivers, canyons, stone forests. Diversity of people, more than forty ethnic groups, of which more than twenty are unique to Yunnan. Diversity of products, tropical, temperate, frigid flora and fauna have their home in Yunnan. When these elements are painted with a palette of colors, it feels like a group of sunny teenagers, holding a full embrace of flowers, fluttering and fluttering. Yunnan this impression is too good, and is everyone **** knowledge. At the beginning of the century, Yunnan tourism that called a fire ah, the domestic tourism market, there is really not able to call the shots with Yunnan. The Kunming Changshui Airport is located in a corner, passenger throughput, the number of routes has been high in the top few domestic airports.

When I first arrived in Kunming, I saw most of the travelers leaving the airport with flowers. I thought, flowers must be Yunnan specialty. A circle walk down, found that I only guessed partially right. In Yunnan flower is not only a specialty, flower in Yunnan is daily necessities, is food. Flowers are edible. Flower cake is Yunnan specialty. Yunnan flowers, many varieties, long flowering period, three hundred and sixty-five days a year, want to open on the open. Flowers do not need to be counted as flowers or plants, they are measured in blocks or gardens. Blooming period, to a mile by mile to measure, to a mountain by mountain to calculate, that is really full of mountains. Where flowers can bloom wonderfully, what can there be that is not beautiful ah, guests do not come is strange.

I will be into this flow of passengers, where far to go there, where the different to go there. The first time I saw the movie, I was in the middle of the movie, and I was in the middle of the movie. The first time I saw this, I was in the middle of a long journey, and it was a long time ago that I was in the middle of a long journey, and it was a long time ago that I was in the middle of a long journey. In Chang'an repaired a Kunming Pond, practicing naval forces, the heart is to unify Dianchi, Erhai. Even in his dreams, he chased after the colorful clouds, but he didn't have the chance to chase after the colorful Yunnan. I'll fulfill the dream for Che.

When I arrived at Dali, I said it was a place of wind and snow. This introduction more or less stunned me, my mind is full of the movie "Five Golden Flowers" left the impression of the simple Bai people. But they themselves labeled it as such a flavorful place. Continue to listen to the introduction, happy. It turns out that each word in this colorful word represents the four landscapes of Dali. Wind is the wind of Xiaguan, flower is the flower of Shangguan, snow is the snow of Cangshan Mountain, and moon is the moon of Erhai. It's just right. A tour, really by the wind, flowers, snow and moon. Flowers introduced, is the standard in Yunnan. The wind is indeed the plateau brand, scrape the urgent, scrape long, in the Erhai feel more truly. Cangshan's snow na, in the big God snow mountain forested Tibetan Plateau on the edge of Yunnan, that at best is a tourist dress.

This wind and snow also y shaped the master here, the Bai compatriots of the national character also presents wind and snow to. Rigid, brilliant, pure, dreamy. Six edicts, although grudges, in the gap between the two major influences of China and Tibet, by virtue of the rigid national character, all the way or inherited, but also under the Cangshan Mountain, the Erhai shore to develop their own unique culture, no point of national toughness is unimaginable. Splendid as a flower like brocade. In Dali, see the architecture, clothing, food, jewelry are poured crafts like heart. It's a nation of handymen. Purity is like the five golden flowers, the simplicity of the working people. Fantasy is like the spirit of the finches. The fact that such a dancer can come out of this place must be due to the revelation of the hometown and the essence of heaven and earth. Dance is y branded with ethnicity. The Mongolian dance of the galloping horse neighing, the Tajik eagle spreading its wings, and the Tibetan raising its arms and feet, all show the beauty of the power of national production and labor and the deep love for the land of existence. Peacock dance is full of spiritual beauty, the key is full of dancers' innovation. Having seen the experience of the dancers, the creation of the Spirit of the Sparrow can be described as a painstaking effort, without the pursuit of the heart, the courage to break the shackles of tradition and the spirit of innovation, it is impossible to succeed. This success enriches the dance expression. Revelation transcends dance. There is honor in it. This is a nation that loves innovation. Inside the philosophy, the Bai compatriots through their own intangible cultural heritage ----- three courses of tea, has made expression. The first course, slightly bitter. The second course, bitter in the sweet. The third course, invite people to open their taste buds, gorgeous dream. There is a philosophy of Dali in it.

Go to Xishuangbanna, luckily hit the water festival. To be precise, it is the prelude to the Water Splashing Festival. But everywhere is already the atmosphere of the festival. Jinghong around, Menghai, Mengla, became a sea of youth. On the streets and by the side of the road, there are teenagers who are flamboyant. It's a pair of teenagers, seventeen or eighteen years old. Teenagers are pedaling bicycles, the back seat without exception, sitting a girl, wearing a tube skirt, ringed the waist of the little brother. There was no shyness, it was natural. They would rather sit on the back of a bicycle and laugh than sit on a BMW and cry. The joy is written on their faces and in their eyes. I was amazed at how many of my buddies were still wearing their robes. You can throw water on their heads, this time, this means good luck and happiness, is the expression of blessings, will harvest a piece of laughter. Follow the flow of young boys and girls, came to the field dam, has been a silver bead splash, laughter and joy of the world. Splashing water does not distinguish between men and women, no extra children and old people. All people can participate in, officials, people, traders, rich and poor, this moment is equal. Think of Premier Zhou had also participated in the water splashing festival scene here. Xishuangbanna is so life. In the water droplets, everything that usually shackles people is outside the clouds. The society people unconsciously made a cocoon for themselves, self-binding and self-pleasure and self-annoyance without knowing. Infected, tourists have also participated. Old man chatting about youth, left with the bucket, the right end of the basin, a scoop of water to pour the group of people, the joy is also outside the sky. This is the picture of human peace. The temperament of Xishuangbanna is peace, the songs and dances here, is the kind of delicate, even the men's dance movements are also soft and soothing, like the dragonfly. This is the kind of peace. There are years of quiet, the present world of peace and security of the sense of vision. Banna climate is warm and humid, lush vegetation, broadleaf oil moist. Daijia hanging bamboo buildings, sitting on the ground, there is a cool breeze through the upper and lower left and right bamboo fence gaps, from all directions, such as into the nature.

The old town of Lijiang on the old tea-horse road is the star of Yunnan tourism, the first fire out of the circle. Those years, tourists in Yunnan are either in Lijiang, or the journey in Lijiang, is not an exaggerated description. What gives Lijiang such an attraction? Of course is the ancient city, Lijiang ancient city building and no Huayu building, there is no redundant construction, carved, but very civilian, very life, which is exactly where the charm of Lijiang. Why is the ancient city has charm, because the owner here has the cultural tradition of respect for the rites and teachings. Naxi nation is a good and learned people, the Chinese people's excellent traditional culture of perseverance and inheritance, penetrated to the bone, consciously and unconsciously reflected in daily life, implicitly as a philosophy of life. A block of slate streets and alleys, a residential building behind a deep cultural support. Charming ancient city of the country so many, why Lijiang attraction superb? Because this ancient city is still alive. The daily life of the city is not to say, look at the Naxi ancient music, which has attracted countless Chinese and foreign fans. This ancient music is known as the living fossil, is the treasure of our national music. It is a treasure, but it is not high above the ground, and then the life of the ground. Most of the performers do it for their hobbies. They are the field house Lang in the morning and the music hall in the night. The hands of the piano playing music stick to the soil of labor fragrance. Neither is the lower class, it is absorbed the Tang dynasty court music, Taoist religious music, combined with the formation of Naxi ethnic traditions, so the afterglow curls, the ancient tune of the new play, full of heritage. Listen to one of the frequently played tracks, Zhang Yanghao's "Mountain Goat", a "sad Qin Han through the place, the palace ten thousand have done the earth", the voice of the word line is full of the vicissitudes of life. This soothing and elegant music is the precipitation of the national spirit, but also its inheritors, detached from the flashy, lyrical feelings, awakening thoughts.

In the ancient city inadvertently walked into a Naxi writer's memorial hall, after visiting quite touching. The owner of the museum is the Republic of China era college students, and then fate wasted, reform and opening up, before ushering in a turnaround, but the years have been spent. Do not dare to slacken off, the old steed in the stable stillchill, with the twilight of the body, diligent pen plowing, published nearly twenty books. Naxi people to be precious, set an example, in the ancient city of his home, to build a memorial hall. A drop of water has the light of the sun, so respect for a writer of no reputation, Zhang Zhang an attitude. Also touched me, one for the writer's self-improvement, two for the community to promote the spirit of the writer's feelings. There is no reason for such a nation to lag behind.

Lijiang is the place where the Jinsha River flows most tangled. Vast from the Tibetan Plateau down, if you continue south, and the three rivers and brothers of the Nujiang and Lancang River, like a head to run out of the country, go to the Central and Southern Peninsula. But it is in Lijiang one hundred and eighty degrees turn, turn around north, to the eastern land left the largest river Yangtze. This is the Jinsha River or God's favor? Geologists concluded after the expedition that it was the work of a great earthquake. The landslide formed by the earthquake blocked the southbound Jinsha River, leaving a mother river to the Chinese land. It also comes with the gift of Tiger Leaping Gorge to commemorate.

Tiger Leaping Gorge for the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Haba Snow Mountain confrontation, snow-capped mountains, deep canyons, the river is turbulent. Divided into three sections, on the Tiger Leaping in the upper reaches of the canyon, easy to reach, tourist facilities, tourists weaving. Viewing the golden section, was sculpted a look back at the colorful tiger. I admire the ancient people who named the Tiger Leaping Gorge. Tiger Leaping Gorge, at first heard the name, here the Jinsha River's deep and narrow, turbulent and powerful scenery on paper. Lamented the pity of today's sculpture works of realism, a bit of a failure, the tiger statue erected, enlarged several times the tiger, in front of the snowy mountains and rivers still seem small. Although in the canyon, dozens of meters wide river, obviously not jump over it. Today's craftsmanship, but defeated the ancient naming of the original intention. This is typical of the burning of the piano.

The three rivers flow side by side, the snowy mountains face each other, resulting in beautiful scenery, but also seriously blocked the transportation of this region. The loess slopes of northern Shaanxi, people pulling easy to meet difficult, in the Hengduan Mountains, these folds of the mountains, between the two mountains (river), meet on the not even think about, pulling also do not mention that the mountains here are ten thousand bremsstrahlung snow mountain. The scenery is different in five miles, the sky is different in ten miles, and there is one ethnic group living in one geographic unit. The fact that there are so many ethnic groups living here and so many cultures is a special feature of this place.

The ten-kilometer section of Upper Tiger Jump and Middle Tiger Jump is an internationally famous hiking route, and the cliffs of the mountain road are covered with foreign language road signs left by international hikers. Unlike domestic tourists, who mostly stop at the Upper Tiger Jump after completing the hike, international backpackers aim mainly at the Middle Tiger Jump. Backpacking along the cliffs of the Jinsha River, enjoying the chorus of the Yulonghaba Snow Mountain and the Jinsha River, what more could one ask for in the world if one has such a beautiful view to accompany him? Lamenting the spirit of adventure of Westerners. The world's beautiful scenery, often in the dangerous far. How dangerous and far away, will also see the footprints of Westerners. Under their influence, the number of people hiking this route is also increasing. The one who can reach the middle tiger jump is absolutely true love. From the road down to the river, there are 600 to 700 meters of vertical height. There is no road, more adventurers, good people in the cliff steel pipe, wooden ladder, stone cans mixed, repair the hanging wall road, only personal climbing. In fact, down to the river, in the tiger jumps and on the tiger jumps on the view and feeling is not very different. But the process of harvesting the good.

Lijiang south from Dali about two hundred kilometers, more than one hundred kilometers northwest is Shangri-La, more than two hundred kilometers northeast is Lugu Lake. The road to Shangri-La is the Yunnan-Tibet highway, but also the old tea-horse road. Advancing and advancing in the lofty mountains, it climbs up to the Tibetan Plateau. See grassland and yak, Shangri-La arrived, this is the capital of Yunnan Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. Formerly known as Zhongdian, more than twenty years ago, several places competed for the name Shangri-La, and Zhongdian won the competition. Shangri-La, a fictionalized name of the place in British author Hilton's "Vanishing Horizon," has become a sought-after destination in recent years because of the novel's international fame and because of its poetic and far-flung elements. The Tibetan Plateau is full of secret places that have gained fame thanks to their location on the old Tea Horse Road. It is human beings created a secret place, is the production of labor produced by the culture, is the combination of culture and nature to bring charm. Have to return to the people-oriented. People and nature play a role in each other, has not yet reached the mutual cause and effect. Surely someone has thought about it.

Geographic diversity, ethnic diversity is a wealth, and the pattern of colorful Yunnan as fascinating. The Chinese nation is formed precisely in the wisdom of each ethnic group to contribute their own survival and culture, exchange and integration. This is how the Chinese culture, which we are so proud of and which has a long and deep history, was formed.

Geographic diversity is also a great asset. I was thinking. The west is the treasure trove of wealth, not only because of its rich mineral resources, diverse human natural resources are also. Developed eastern coast, its transportation hubs, ports and harbors, thousands of miles of fertile land is the perfect conditions for industrial civilization and agricultural production, attracting the gathering of wealth, in creating industrial and agricultural wealth has an advantage. This wealth is flowing wealth, flowing and unstable, growing on the surface of the ground, without deep roots. Like crops, harvests are affected by the climate, and crop failures can occur. To illustrate this concept, here is a concept of flow wealth and hard wealth. In terms of possessing wealth and natural resources, the East is incomparable to the West. The glaciers and snowfields, deep forests, and deserts of the West appear to be barren and desolate, like barren land. Deep thought will find that these things in the west is hard wealth, solid, deep roots. The west is the invisible rich man. As an example, in the west can be seen in the mountains and rivers, in the east even if the ratio of ten to one copy of a, can not be realized or unimaginable cost. Himalayas or Taklamakan you to ten to one ratio of a copy? Simply not humanly possible. The same applies to the ethnic and cultural diversity of the West. Where is the wealth? The comparison is clear. After a few years, everyone will understand this truth. Therefore, the western part of the country does not have to be presumptuous, and should be proactive in cherishing and protecting this diversity. Yunnan presents the beauty of the pattern is also the diversity.

The era of rapid change has also profoundly changed everything. It is not easy to judge whether it is progressive, advanced or belongs to other types. Some phenomena but clearly can feel a trace of doubt. Recently went to Yunnan, see some phenomena, feel a little colorful clouds, become magic. In Kunming, there is still time to complete the official work, to participate in a group of nine townships day trip. The tour fee is not as high as the bus round-trip ticket price. Understand that cheap is not good, but all the group price is this level, there are lower. Nine townships is peculiar, the journey is tainted, all the way into the shopping point, is the kind of not buy something will be taunted by the guide sarcasm. Feeling into contempt of the tour. Early shopping did not buy peace and quiet. I wondered when it became so? Yunnan tourism tasteless. Running off course. Why is the wrong direction no one care? Helmsman? Before I noticed to the spirit of the bird and other dance innovation harvested my respect for the artist, I do not know is the innovation into the devil or which tendon turned, one year's Spring Festival night, launched a non-stop non-stop circle of the human body clock. Artistic innovation into behavioral art, the viewer is somewhat confused. No one stepped on the brakes for this obviously short-circuited gimmick, pulling down the country's IQ. More people feel sorry for the behavior is in the Erhai side built a big house, a group of small circle of people in the name of art facing the sea, spring flowers bloom. This seemingly beautiful thing is also a bit less beautiful. Art has no vitality when it is detached from the masses. This wave of mutation also infected the old city of Lijiang, foreign operators quietly on the original ecology completed the blood change, around the ecology of the Kongfangzhi spring like bamboo shoots, the rush to make quick profits, changed the ancient city model. The bad consequences have been revealed, in the past two years, Lijiang has appeared in the tourists retreat, B&B depression of the embarrassment. It is also good that the big wave of sand, can wash away the flashy.

Yunnan is the kingdom of fungus, Wang Zengqi recalled the Southwest United University to enjoy a variety of fungus delicious article, tempting taste buds wide open, feeling this colorful south of the clouds, and even fungus is also so diverse, is Yunnan is another delicacy on earth. Here is the kingdom of flowers, more than seasonal flowers, more than a bowl of fragrant rice noodles. You can feast your eyes as well as your mouth. No need to cross the bridge, the food market is full of stalls with fresh mushrooms. Just follow the local customs and say goodbye to South of Colorful Clouds with a meal of fresh mushroom hot pot. The first thing you need to do is to get a good deal of money to pay for it.
