Q: It is said that riding a snowy mountain can evade tickets?

A: Some people in the ancient city will take the initiative to ask you if you want to ride a horse in Yulong Snow Mountain, and then tell you that Yulong Snow Mountain can ride a horse from the back hill without tickets. In fact, Yulong Snow Mountain can't evade tickets at all. At most, military ID cards or student ID cards can be discounted. Although Yulong Snow Mountain is not the first one, it is so famous that it has to queue for several hours every day. How is it possible to evade tickets casually? Riding on the Snow Mountain is absolutely deceptive, because riding on the Snow Mountain will be too much for you, 100% of the time is suffering, and you won't see any classic attractions of the Snow Mountain when riding on the Snow Mountain. However, a few people say that they feel ok after riding the snow-capped mountains. As the saying goes, different people have different opinions, and the pros and cons are measured by everyone.

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. Personally, I think there are preserved ribs and potato chicken in Xiangshan market, both of which are delicious restaurants in Lijiang. 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 yak meat, which is generally ten or twenty yuan a catty.

Q: Why is it boring to join a delegation or stay in a hotel in Lijiang?

A: You can't feel the charm of the ancient city when staying in a hotel or hotel-style inn in Lijiang, 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. Liang Xiao thinks that the inn itself is one of the most important scenic spots in Old Town of Lijiang. If you book a hotel or hotel-style inn, it will be tasteless and boring, which will make your trip to Lijiang lose many wonderful experiences and memories.

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 so-and-so inn is their home, which is very cheap and can be stayed. 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 the inn? Seriously, how can an inn that attracts customers by lies have a good reputation? Guests who have been deceived by such lies will regret when they see softness. 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 drift at all, and it is strongly recommended not to go.

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: According to the feedback from the guests, there are also some common scams in Lijiang, such as the young monk in Black Dragon Pool, the home visits of Tibetans in Dongba Valley and Wanshen Garden, the nameless drugstore in Shangri-La, the aunt who let tourists ride on the snowy mountain, and the ancient city silverware store, which lied to tourists that an inn was the driver of its own passenger station and sold ordinary bracelets with a dozen dollars into hundreds of sterling silver bracelets. Lijiang's travel regulations are strict, and there will be no forced buying and selling, as long as you pay a little attention.

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. Soft time suggests that if you have so much money, you might as well donate it to children in poor mountainous areas of Yunnan.

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: Lijiang area is rich in vegetation, and altitude sickness is not very strong. However, if you want to go to the scenic spots above 3000 meters above sea level, 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 may have altitude sickness when they go to Meili Snow Mountain.

Q: What do you think of the commercialization of Lijiang?

When I first saw Lijiang, I lived in Sifang Street. It's too noisy, too noisy, like a vegetable market. It seems that everything can be sold. It rains for three to five minutes every day, and then it is sunny. At that time, Liang Xiao was very angry and the consequences were very serious. Liang Xiao plans to stay in Lijiang River for one month and Shuhe River for one month, and then continue to travel. But slowly the little devil and the baby changed their minds. Due to the fierce commercial competition in Lijiang, many things in Lijiang are actually much cheaper than Shuhe. In fact, Shuhe is too cold at night, a bit like Shangri-La. At that time, I lived in an inn on the grassland, and I could see yaks when I woke up every day, but I still couldn't stand the waste at night.

Lijiang is close to noise, Lijiang is close to madness, Lijiang is close to tranquility, and Lijiang is close to sunshine. That's why I decided to stay in Lijiang. Jingyuan is too boring and noisy, and tranquility is king. On the other hand, Lijiang is a very suitable place to calm down in the noise. Liang Xiao doesn't like to open an inn in Shuhe or Shangri-La and stay there. Although Liang Xiao prefers the feeling of quiet and far-reaching, the night is too cold and lonely, and Liang Xiao doesn't like noisy places, so soft time was born. Therefore, Liang Xiao likes drinking tea, chatting in the sun, playing with mud and watching dogs fight every day, so he has quiet soft time.

Not only China, but also any country in the world, as long as it is famous, will be commercialized. For the commercialization of Lijiang, I think the advantage is that the price will be relatively cheap. As the origin of tie-dyed scarves, the price of scarves in Dali is actually more expensive than that in Lijiang. The reason is that the competition in Lijiang shops is too fierce, and the price has dropped in the competition. Of course, if you have to go to Sifang Street, you deserve to be slaughtered. Lijiang Inn is also because of fierce competition, so the overall service and cost performance will be better than other places. Although Lijiang is very commercialized, it is not as expensive as Sanya's domineering, nor as vicious as other ancient towns. The commercialization of Lijiang is more formal and benign, and of course there will be ugliness and deception. After all, where the sun shines, there must be shadows. There are both commercial attractions and original natural scenery around Lijiang, such as Baisha Shaxi, Shangri-La, Meili Snow Mountain, Yubeng Village, Lashihai, Lugu Lake, Laojun Mountain and Stone Town. In Lijiang, you can not only experience the convenience of commercial competition, but also experience the original and simple scenic spots.

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. For example, can you sleep if the sound insulation is not good, and can you lie comfortably with white sheets all over the yard? If you have no partner or your food is poor, you have to spend more money. It's even more troublesome to meet innkeepers and drivers who cheat money. Maybe they not only have cheap rooms, but also cheap drivers' fares, but they will throw you down if they take you to burn incense or take you halfway. Even for example, how many inns will tell you that you can buy things for more than ten dollars outside? If you choose soft time, you should not only listen to friends' introduction, but also understand the advantages of soft time.

Q: Does Old Town of Lijiang have to pay the maintenance fee for the ancient city?

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 go through the formalities of charging Gu Wei fees, and Softsleep Inn can charge Gu Wei fees, which can pass through all scenic spots at one time. 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 local cultural performances are there in Lijiang?

A: The main cultural performances in Lijiang are lishui sands, Luban Road Rao and Naxi Ancient Music. Among them, lishui sands performed in the form of national costumes. There are three paragraphs: 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.

Lu Rao shows the ancient national culture of the Naxi nationality, and is adapted from the two thousand-year-old epic "Battle of Black and White" and "Lu Rao" of the Naxi nationality, describing a bloody battle between the black and white nationalities a long time ago. The ancestors of the two tribes predicted that black people and white people would never get married. By chance, the black princess fell in love with the white prince, thus giving birth to a sad love story.

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.

The above three performances are performed every night, and you need to make an appointment one day in advance. Most ancient city inns offer discounts lower than those in 20 yuan.

Q: What are some good local songs in Old Town of Lijiang?

A: Old Town of Lijiang songs, which are deeply loved by local people and tourists, mainly include: Datiao Song, Dongbaji Rijing, Naxi Wine Song, Love of Ancient City, Marriage to Lijiang, Lijiang Dream, Moon and so on.

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.

Lijiang has many inns. I hope to learn more and observe more, because this is not only a place to live, but also what services this inn can provide and what kind of people the owner of this inn is. These will all involve whether your trip to Lijiang is fun or not. Soft time will try to provide more warm service,

These will all involve whether your trip to Lijiang is fun or not. Soft time will provide as many warm services as possible. Some rooms have opened free long-distance telephone service. For more warm services, please refer to value-added warm services.

Q: What should I wear if I go this month or 65438+February? ! Thick or thin? Short or long? !

A: Lijiang has a plateau climate all year round, with a large temperature difference between morning and evening. Generally, it is a thick coat or down jacket in the morning and evening, and it is sunny during the day. It is also possible to wear a short-sleeved T-shirt miniskirt. Gaga. But always take a coat in case the sudden change of weather causes a cold.

Q: Which inn in Lijiang is more romantic? I want to watch the stars with Qinqin in the community yard at night. I heard that there are many romantic inns. Can you recommend it?

You can visit me in my free time. Soft time will not be as noisy as near the bar street, nor will it be remote or too high. It belongs to quiet in the middle of trouble, and it is most suitable for staying back from shopping.

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 about 30,000 birds come here for the winter every year, including 9 rare and endangered birds, including Hei He, Chinese merganser, black-necked crane and other national first-class protected birds. 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. It takes at least four to six days to get to Meili Snow Mountain. Please consult soft time for details.

Q: Can you tell us something about Lugu Lake?

A: Lugu Lake is picturesque. Most of the guests who have been there say it is beautiful, but the journey is very long, and it takes more than seven hours for one way. One bend and eighteen bends. When passing through every corner, drivers are playing drift, drifting on the edge of the cliff to stimulate them. 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.

Q: Is there any skill in riding and rowing in Lashihai?

A: Lashihai is an international wetland park and a good place for thousands of migratory birds to spend the winter, but there are also some places that need to be reminded to make you have a better time ~ ~

First of all, pull the reins with one hand and hold the saddle with the other. You should learn to control the reins. Pulling left means going left, and pulling right means going right. Pull back desperately to stop the horse from moving forward (it is best to say "wow ~", which means stop in Naxi language). If you want to let the horse go, you should shake the reins a little (it is best to say "Qi ~", which is the Naxi way of walking). Pull the reins to the left to let the horse go left, pull the reins to the right to let the horse go right, and pull the reins back to stop the horse.

In Blue Moon Valley, the first country of Yulong, there is a racecourse where the groom can organize horse races and repeat them several times (if the groom won't let you run, you can contact the baby to complain about them; if your horse doesn't run well, you can let the groom change a horse to let you run and play first, and then switch back to your own horse when you really hit the road). This feeling is definitely better than ordinary riding 100 times.

When riding a horse, you can't put small things in your pockets. If you fall to the ground, you will scare the horse.

Any scenic spot may encounter weather changes, so please prepare appropriately.

Don't row a boat in cold weather. You'd better ride back or let the car at the racetrack pick you up.

There are many routes in the racecourse, and the most important ones are two. One is the route around the lake, which contains the most colorful scenic spots in this season. It is more suitable for guests who don't know how to ride a horse. You can learn how to ride a horse while traveling. One is the horse racing self-help route, which is more suitable for guests who already know how to ride horses. You can ask the racecourse to give you a first-class fierce horse with a more active temper and likes to run.
