Want to go to Lijiang to play alone, and ask for a travel guide.
Q: When is the best time to go to Lijiang?
A: Go to Lijiang and visit different scenic spots at different times! In winter, you can't feel the thrilling momentum when you go to Tiger Leaping Gorge because of the low water, but it is a good time to go to Meili to see Rizhao Jinshan and it. In mid-May, the shrub rhododendron in Xiaozhongdian was in full bloom, but it was a month late to see the rhododendron in the alpine tree. The grass sea in Lugu Lake will be beautiful in June and July, but when the rainy season comes, the road to Lugu Lake may not be easy. In spring and summer, there are flowers and grass in Lashihai, which is a good opportunity to race horses and experience the ancient tea-horse road, while in autumn and winter, it is an excellent opportunity to see migratory birds ... Plus the time spent in a daze in the ancient city, it is difficult to see all the scenery in Lijiang.
Can you tell me some ways to get to Lijiang?
A: Lijiang has an airport and buses. Last year, a train was opened. There are direct flights to Lijiang from Shanghai, Guangzhou, Nanjing 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. ) Kunming has buses to Lijiang on the day shift and night shift. It takes about 8- 10 hours. After arriving at Lijiang New Town Bus Terminal, take a taxi around 7 yuan to the nearest place you set, and the inn will usually send a young lady out to pick up the guests. Nowadays, train tickets are generally difficult to buy. Niu Niu suggested that everyone buy them in advance.
Q: Why don't I think it's fun to come to Lijiang with a group?
A: You can't feel the charm of the ancient city when staying in a hotel or hotel-style inn in Lijiang, and 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 go to several places at a time and experience the original flavor of Yunnan. To visit the scenic spot, it is best to find a trusted innkeeper to contact the chartered car and other matters on his behalf. 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 anything than the tour guide. The Thousand Miles Alliance Inn strongly does not recommend going out to play in rainy days, nor does it recommend that you arrange your time too tightly like driving a duck 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 go to see the snow-capped mountains next time. It's not boring to spend four or five hundred dollars to watch a fog. In fact, there are many natural scenery in Lijiang. You will be very happy if you choose a scenic spot suitable for the season. There is no need to be too demanding.
Q: I take a taxi to Lijiang from the passenger station. Some taxi drivers will say that the inn is their home, and 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 can stay. However, some people still believe 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 that attracts customers by lies have a good reputation? 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 calm to feel drifting at all, and it is strongly recommended not to go.
Q: Is there altitude sickness when you are in poor health in Lijiang? If Lijiang doesn't respond, can I go to a scenic spot at a higher altitude?
A: Altitude sickness is not very strong in Lijiang, a tourist attraction with rich vegetation, but if you want to go to a scenic spot with a height of more than 3 kilometers, you must stay in Lijiang for a few days to adapt to the transition period of altitude sickness. Lijiang itself is 24 10 above sea level. There is generally no altitude sickness. Some people in the snow-capped mountains may have altitude sickness. If you go to Meili Snow Mountain, there may be altitude sickness. Niu Niu reminds you, if you are not in good health, don't get on the ropeway. You can take other ropeways.
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. It's really a waste of time to come to a place like Old Town of Lijiang and stay in a hotel. As China and even the world-famous Old Town of Lijiang, staying in an inn is not only to solve the problems of accommodation and sleeping, but also to experience the unique Naxi cultural customs of the ancient town and integrate itself into the whole of Old Town of Lijiang. At present, there are hundreds of inns in Gucheng Inn, and rooms with a price difference of more than ten or twenty yuan should still be found as long as you look for them. In fact, additional services are standard rooms to measure prices, such as sound insulation, sanitation, quietness, location and so on. If the innkeeper ignores it, the indirect loss caused to the guests will be more than ten dollars.
Q: Do I have to pay for the tour in Old Town of Lijiang?
A: The Gu Wei fee has been bundled with most of the surrounding scenic spots, and visitors to Lijiang must pay it. Most tourist units in the ancient city have gone through the formalities of collecting Gu Wei fees, and the Qianlixing Alliance Inn can collect Gu Wei fees, which can be used in all scenic spots at one time. The service life is one week. 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 maintenance fee of Old Town of Lijiang's construction and repair after hearing and approval by the provincial and municipal governments.
Q: What delicious snacks are there 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. Lijiang's delicious restaurants include preserved pork ribs and potato chicken in Xiangshan market, and Shantou Jianghu restaurant in Wuyi Street in the ancient city has a relatively stable technical level, especially his spiced chicken wings, fish-flavored eggplant seeds, iron plate tofu and spicy chicken, and braised pork feet are even more delicious. There are also preserves shops and pickles shops, and fried potatoes and boiled mushrooms at roadside stalls can also be tried. As for the dried yak meat sold everywhere in the ancient city, you can buy it at the price of ordinary dried beef. A more detailed strategy of eating, drinking and having fun can be searched online for Lijiang sunflower collection. It is worth noting that when I first came to Lijiang, I probably didn't have a good appetite because of acclimatization, but after getting used to it for a few days, my 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 and Naxi ancient music, which left a deep impression on Lijiang.
Among them, lishui sands performed in the form of national costumes. Among them, there are three sections: big club, wedding and 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.
Naxi ancient music consists of Baisha fine music, Dong Jing music and Yu Jing music (now lost). It is integrated with Taoist rites and music, Confucian rites and music, and even Tang, Song, Yuan Ci and Qupai music, forming its unique charm. Known as "music fossil", it is one of the oldest music in the world.
Impression Lijiang is one of Zhang Yimou's impression series, which belongs to a large-scale time field and is also spectacular.
The above performances need to be booked one day in advance. Most ancient city inns offer discounts lower than those in 20 yuan, so does the Thousand Miles Alliance Inn.
Q: What are some good local songs in Old Town of Lijiang?
A: Old Town of Lijiang songs, which are widely loved by locals and tourists, mainly include: Datiao Song, Dongbaji Rijing, Naxi Jingdi, Naxi Jiuge, Ancient City Love, Lijiang Dream, Yueyue and so on.
Q: When going out to play, some fortune tellers or tribal wise people are very accurate in fortune telling. Can you buy his souvenirs?
A: There are also young monks in Black Dragon Pool, unknown medicine shops in Shangri-La, and aunts who let tourists ride snow-capped mountains. They lied to tourists that an inn was the driver of their own passenger station and sold ordinary bracelets of more than ten dollars into hundreds of sterling silver bracelets. Because Lijiang's travel regulations are strict, there will be no forced buying and selling, so there will be some scams similar to fortune telling and Tibetan family visits.
Fortune telling is actually just psychology. The essence of true religious worship is to understand the beauty and gratitude of life, rather than how much money to buy a token or candle. Niu Niu suggested that so much money should be donated to children in poor mountainous areas of Yunnan.
Q: How does Lijiang distinguish 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. Now is the peak season. If you don't book in advance, you may not even be able to book 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 Day Golden Week, and the Spring Festival. The house price is the most expensive, and other seasons are considered as off-season. Average house price in off-season is 60 yuan-150 yuan, and average house price in peak season is 200 yuan -380 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 domestic tourist attractions, Lijiang's off-season is not off-season. Visitors who have just arrived will feel that there are still many people. The difference between the off-season and the peak season in Lijiang is actually that there are many people, so if you like customers who save money, Niu Niu reminds you, please avoid the peak season and come to Lijiang.
Q: There are actually hundreds of inns in Old Town of Lijiang. Don't you need to make a reservation in off-season?
A: It is precisely because there are hundreds of inns in Old Town of Lijiang, which are mixed and varied. Therefore, it is more important to know more about them before going out. There may be many inns in the off-season, but not many with good service quality. Many good inns are the same customers in the off-season, and few have 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. Niu Niu is committed to providing you with better service.
Q: Can you introduce Lashihai?
A: It is the first nature reserve named after "wetland" in Yunnan Province. "Lashi" is translated into Gunasi, "Lashi" is a barren dam, and "Stone" is new, which means a new barren dam. At present, there are 57 species of birds in Lashihai Wetland, and there are about 30,000 birds wintering here every year, including 9 rare and endangered birds, including Hei He, Chinese merganser and black-necked crane. As long as it doesn't rain all year round, Lashihai is a good season for riding and boating, because Lashihai is the ancient tea-horse road that the caravan used to pass through, because grasslands and wetlands will alternate and feel different. There are about 30,000 migratory birds in Lashihai every year, and 57 species of migratory birds overwinter. So Lashihai is also a paradise for birds, which shows the environmental charm of Lashihai.
Q: Can you introduce 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 the same level at all. Located between the Nujiang River and Lancang River in the middle section of Hengduan Mountain, about 10 km northeast of Deqin County, Yunnan Province, there are 13 peaks with an average elevation of more than 6000 meters, which are called "Prince Thirteen Peaks". Carvajal, the main peak, is 6740 meters high, making it the first peak in Yunnan. Yubeng is a Tibetan natural village at the foot of goddess peak in Meili Snow Mountain. Walking there is quite a sense of paradise, which is the epitome of Shangri-La. Yubeng Waterfall has always been a holy place for Tibetan Buddhism to worship. Thousands of believers come to worship from Tibet, Sichuan, Qinghai, Gansu and other places every year. Meili Snow Mountain mainly has four or six-day tours. For details, please consult Niu Niu.
Q: Can you tell us something about Lugu Lake?
A: Lugu Lake is picturesque. Most of the guests who have been there say it's beautiful, but it's a long drive, and it takes more than seven hours for one way. There are 18 bends in total. When passing through every corner, drivers are playing drift and playing drift stimulation 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 smooth and bumpy. Well, it took so much saliva, not to tell everyone not to go, but to make everyone fully prepared to travel.
All right, Niu Niu, tidy these up for the time being. If you want to know the specific situation,
Welcome to Lijiang
