Colorful Yunnan, the legendary colorful Yunnan, my face, reflected by these seven colors, is so bright and scattered. This article is a composition I compiled for everyone. You are welcome to read it.

Colorful Yunnan

Yunnan is an area inhabited by ethnic minorities. According to the tour guide, there are 56 ethnic groups in the country, and all of them are in Yunnan. In the stone forests I have been to, there are more Yi people, more Bai people in Dali, and more Naxi people in Lijiang. Ashima is the representative of the Yi girls, and Jinhua is the representative of the Bai girls. On the way to the Stone Forest, the tour guide gave an interesting speech about the "Eighteen Weird Things" of Yunnan: trains are not as fast as cars and cannot connect domestic and foreign countries; an old woman climbs a tree faster than a monkey; falls in love with a baby on her back; sells eggs on a string; three mosquitoes A plate of dishes; three mice and a sack; a trouser belt on her head... She also talked about the brave and unyielding love story of Ashima and Brother Ahei with gusto, choosing "Ashima" and "Ashima" among the tourists. "Ah Hei" and "A Bai" came to have fun and talked about many customs and habits of the Yi people and their language... When watching the stone forest, I was moved by the endless natural landscape. I always thought that there would be such a wonderful wonder in the world. There are vivid and lifelike images, including graceful beauties, lifelike lotuses, characters from the Journey to the West story, etc. The most distinctive one is the hard-working and brave Ashima "incarnated" into a boulder. We listened to the tour guide's explanation while walking, and walked out of the stone forest without knowing it.

Arrived in Dali, on the way to the Three Pagodas, the tour guide introduced Cangshan Mountain, Three Pagodas, Butterfly Spring, Erhai Lake, special products, Bai people's houses and customs. In the film "Five Golden Flowers", the TV series "Dragon" and the song "The Moon Comes Out Bright and Prosperous", the Bai people call the women Golden Flowers and the men "Apeng Ge". There is wind all year round. Cangshan Mountain is full of camellias in full bloom in spring. The three-leaf plum blossoms blooming all year round beside the walls of every Bai house are very beautiful. The rapeseed flowers everywhere in February are even more charming. The houses of the Bai people are really beautifully built. It is an ancient building in the style of a small Western-style building, with green tiles and white walls, and a fenced gate. It looks very strict. There is also a black painting and a huge "福" written on the white wall. There are four neat rows of "福" standing around the house. The tree looks like a sentinel. According to the tour guide, the Bai people plant trees first when building a house. Only when the tree is alive can they build a house. They think it is a treasure of Feng Shui. If the tree does not survive, the house cannot be built. The Bai people have the habit of celebrating the Torch Festival, Butterfly Festival in May, and admiring the moon on the night of August 15th in the first month of the lunar calendar. Whether an old family or a young couple, they rent a boat to go to Erhai Lake to enjoy the bright moon. The moon stays overnight. Unfortunately, I left Dali on the 15th and was not lucky enough to experience and enjoy it in person. This is probably the meaning of the four words "风花雪月" summarized by Dali for the development of tourism industry.

The Three Pagodas of Dali were built in the Tang Dynasty. They are witnesses of the friendship between the Dali Kingdom and its submission to the Tang Dynasty. The three towers are different in shape, size and height, and are arranged in a triangle. Thousands of years have passed, and it has experienced countless winds, suns, thunder and lightning, and earthquakes. Although one tower is obviously tilted, it still stands at the foot of Cangshan Mountain, attracting the hearts of countless wanderers from all over the world.

Butterfly Spring is named after the many butterflies that gather around the spring at the foot of Cangshan Mountain. Although the spring is not big, the natural landscape is very beautiful. We walked along the stones paved with green bamboos on both sides. As we walked up the main road, the first thing that caught our eyes was the ancient mountain gate with "Butterfly Spring" written on it. After walking a few dozen meters, we saw the Butterfly Spring with flowing spring water. We took pictures there and took a break. Then we went to the Butterfly Exhibition Hall, where hundreds of butterfly specimens were displayed, as well as artificially bred butterflies flying around among the flowers, which became a unique scenery in the south but not seen in the north in autumn.

Although Erhai Lake is not as big as Dongting Lake in Hunan, it is like a bright mirror clamped on the land of Dali. We took a cruise to a small island in the center of the sea and took a tour to see the sea. scenery. On the cruise ship, we not only saw the size of Dali, the age of Cangshan Mountain, and the beauty of Erhai Lake, but also drank three-course Pu'er tea produced in Cangshan Mountain, enjoyed the dance of the Bai ethnic group, and watched Dali City's large-scale theatrical performance - Butterfly Dream in the evening. The next day, I followed the ancient tea and hemp road leading to the ***, watched the rice fields with a bumper harvest on both sides of the road, sucked in the scent of rice, and reluctantly left Dali for Lijiang.

Lijiang is most famous for its ancient city.

The beauty of the ancient city lies in: the city is in the water, and the water is in the city. Walking along the streets, no matter east-west, north-south, there is water flowing where the streets pass. The water is even very clear. You can see the bottom at a glance, and fish of all colors and sizes are free. Tourists come and go, adding color to the ancient city. The architectural style of Lijiang Ancient City is strictly different from that of Dali Ancient City, but if you don’t look closely, you will think they are the same. It has been preserved as a world heritage for thousands of years. Can the original ancient city exist? Today’s ancient city is probably under maintenance. Countless times, although Dali Ancient City is the capital of the Dali Kingdom, its scale is not as large as that of Lijiang Ancient City. The ancient city gives the impression that it is a market or a shopping mall. After visiting the ancient city, the tour guide took us to the ancient teahouse of the Naxi people to experience the tea culture of the Naxi people. The tea tasting scene was ridiculous. First, there was an advertisement-style speech by the fat golden girl, and then the tea tasting, and then started selling Tea. In my impression, tea tasting is a masterpiece of tour guides along the way from Stone Forest to Lijiang. Everywhere we go, there are different forms of tea tasting scenes, but in essence they are all tea-selling scenes. The night view of the ancient town of Lijiang is spectacular, but unfortunately we are already very tired. Only the young couple among us had a feast for our eyes. The others rested instead of going to bed early, eating moon cakes, drinking beer, celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival, and cheering for the bright moon.

Later, we went to Dongbala, the ancient residence of the Naxi tribe, where the Tsanasi people performed Shangdaoshan and other unique skills. Then we went to Ganzi to see the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Unfortunately, it was too foggy, and we could only vaguely see a few mountains that looked like snow mountains. It is said that the real thing on the mountains was not snow, but white rocks that had been melted by the wind. There was no such thing in the world. A mountaineering expeditioner climbed to the top of the mountain. Then we went to Yushui Village at the source of the Evil River. After enjoying the water, fish, and surrounding landscape, we set off on the road to Jiuxiang.

Jiuxiang Scenic Area is different from other scenic spots. There are mountains lined with trees, Guigu Gorge with water like the Yellow River, and unique caves, which are extremely spectacular. A group of us got on the boat and rowed twenty or thirty meters, followed the mind-numbing Guigu Gorge, passed through the magical and weird karst caves, and took the cable car to take photos and laugh all the way to the end of the journey. He left behind an animated figure in Jiuxiang - a video. It is a pity that one cannot be copied as a permanent souvenir.

In short, my impression of Yunnan is: there are too many clouds, light rain often falls, the ultraviolet rays are too strong, the soil is baked into light red by ultraviolet rays, the environment is very beautiful, the air is very fresh, the vegetation is particularly good; the geology The landform is very strange, and grain is grown in the cracks of stones; there are many types of mineral deposits, and the variety of gold, silver, and stone processing is dazzling; there are also many specialties, Yunnan Baiyao and Tong'er tea have been famous since ancient times. Otherwise, go to Yunnan When people come back, they bring big and small bags as souvenirs to their relatives and friends. The tour guides in Yunnan are really amazing. He has Sun Monkey's magic. He is a tour guide at scenic spots and a shopping guide in shopping malls. In addition to being good at talking and singing, he can also think of ways to drain tourists' pockets and make you empty your pockets. Money spent in a foreign country allows you to carry a heavy bag back to your hometown. This is only my superficial understanding of Yunnan’s scenery and national culture, and I cannot talk about those profound origins.
