From Xishuangbanna back to the hinterland of Yunnan

1

After finishing our trip to Xishuangbanna, it was still dark at 6:30 in the morning. After breakfast, we started heading towards the Cherry Blossom Valley of Wuliang Mountain in high spirits. Laughing and laughing all the way, watching the blue sky and white clouds. After a smooth journey of 150 kilometers, we left the expressway and walked onto Provincial Highway 322. The sky was still blue, but the road was not the same as before. The sky is full of potholes and dust. I want to eat at noon, but I hate small restaurants. We wanted to ask for directions, but the locals didn’t understand Mandarin. Although they enthusiastically asked us to follow his tractor, the GPS kept reminding us to turn around, and we ended the arduous journey at a loss. Just like that, I was hungry and bumpy along the way, appreciating the local customs and customs of Yunnan's original rural roads. I didn't arrive at Zhenyuan County until 6 o'clock in the evening. As soon as I got off the car and opened the door, dust was flying everywhere, and I almost didn't recognize my poor car. . The funny thing is that we had already received news that the road conditions were not very good during the journey. In order to avoid the bad road, we also studied the paper map. Unfortunately, we read the wrong map. After getting off the expressway from Pu'er, we basically Above, we follow the whole process through the bad road of construction, which is the section of road that others told us to avoid. Zhenyuan is famous for its beef soup pot. I tried it at a random restaurant. The portion size was average and the taste was average. In any case, the endless mountain cherry blossoms are not far away.

Wuliang Mountain Cherry Blossom Valley is located in De'an Village Committee, Wuliang Town, Nanjian County, Dali Prefecture, Yunnan. The roads in the scenic area are very good, and the service facilities are complete. There are no tickets for sale, parking is free, and Chinese food is not expensive. This scenic spot is a bit sweet. In comparison, Binyang Tower in Jingzhou is not really a scenic spot. It charges a lot of money without shame. Friends from other places exclaimed that such a small attraction actually charges 35 yuan for admission, which makes us local "leaders" blush. The men in Jingzhou who are clamoring to develop the cultural tourism industry should really learn from the long-term vision of a major tourism province.

I watched the cherry blossoms in Wuliang Mountain at noon, and in the afternoon I went to visit the ancient town of Weishan, where the prince lives in the middle part of "Dragon Babu". It was clean, tidy and unremarkable. It was only at 8:00 pm that I touched the double corridor on the Erhai Lake. Unexpectedly, I encountered road construction again. I walked into the double corridor in the dark and found that the double corridor was also undergoing major demolition and construction. In the car at night, it's not bad to watch the stars all the way from the double corridor.

When I get up in the morning, facing Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake, Haizi's "Spring is warm and flowers are blooming facing the sea" jumps into my heart. The main street of the town is lively and bustling, with bars and shops everywhere, surrounded by big trees standing on the street, telling the history of the town's expansion brought about by the boom in tourism. Seeing the aborigines in national costumes walking side by side with the fashionable men and women waiting to meet each other, walking towards the depths of the alley, it feels like the peace and quiet of another world. The red-billed gulls fly freely in Erhai Lake.

Shuanglang is fashionable and traditional, lively and quiet. You can be in a daze, think, party, indulge and empty out. This may be the reason why we like Shuanglang.
