Perhaps everyone has their own utopia in their heart, a place you long for but won’t easily go to. Because at some point, it’s like your goal, constantly reminding you what the meaning of struggle is and what the reason to persist is? The sacred place in my heart is Lijiang. Although I haven’t been there, my brain has been there countless times.
【About Accommodation】
The inn has good reviews, it’s clean and beautiful, located in the quiet Baisha Ancient Town. The fame of Lijiang is obvious, people who have done some research will know about Shuhe Ancient Town, it’s a more quiet ancient town than Lijiang, relatively less commercialized. As for Baisha Ancient Town, it’s probably unknown to many. It’s about 3 kilometers away from Shuhe Ancient Town, not far from the foot of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, a quiet town.
The last car that arrived in Lijiang, the last part of the journey was either hitchhiking or taking the bus. Later, the two got off at the intersection and hitchhiked. The city roads are not suitable for hitchhiking, so they decided to walk to the bus station and take the bus. Passing by a vegetable market, I decided to take a look, and bought some local snacks, such as tofu with bean paste and chicken and starch noodles.
Touring various attractions
The bus arrived at Baisha Ancient Town, images of my hometown in spring, summer, autumn and winter flashed through my mind. After walking 1 kilometer in the quiet town, I found the inn. Pushing the door open, the first thing you see is a tea shop. There was no one inside. I searched carefully but didn’t see anyone. I dialed the phone. The person who answered the phone was a girl. She said she would be there soon. Less than a minute later, someone came out of the tea shop, two lively and cute girls, Alice and Xiaolong, and a northeast guy.
In the morning, there was no one in the courtyard. The fog was taking pictures of the sun in the place where the sun could shine.
The two bought red bean yogurt in Shuhe Ancient Town that Alice highly recommended, it was really good. There were free osmanthus cakes to try along the way.
In the evening, everyone sat around, eating barbecue and sharing their stories.
There is a wall painted with the route of the Silk Road, Ali saw it at a glance, he was familiar with it, because he had been to many of the places on it, from Turkey, Iran, all the way here, the route would sway left and right, but he had been to most of the places. Iran looks very closed from the outside, but its people are very enthusiastic. In the whole of Iran, Ali could find a couch almost everywhere he went, and the couch owners would also provide food. Tajikistan is a very closed country, it’s very difficult to get a visa, there are almost no tourists, let alone hitchhiking. The police will directly expel people, once you enter the country, people will ask how you came here. He was lucky to have a friend pick him up, and he could stay at his friend’s house. Maybe one day the fog will go in the opposite direction, starting from Xinjiang Esh, and following the Silk Road to Europe.
It’s been 3 nights here, this is the 4th night. Although it’s very comfortable to stay here, I still need to return to my own work life. It’s been a very happy journey.
