Lijiang, Yunnan, is a city that many people yearn for. The air here, the environment here, and the sky here always bring people a lot of impact. In fact, the most beautiful thing here is the cultural atmosphere. The national sentiment in the hearts of the people here is very rare, and this is the main reason why we embarked on this trip. We are coming to Lijiang, Yunnan.
Preparation Before the Trip
【About the Vehicle】
For a self-driving tour, the first thing to do is prepare a durable car, because for long-distance driving, if the quality of the car is not good, it will cause a lot of trouble on the road. And it’s a long-distance drive, comfort becomes very important, so let’s abandon the small cars that look good! The space is too small and it is not comfortable to sit for a long time.
【About Transportation】
① Leave Chongqing around 7:00 am, pick up people in Neijiang, and have lunch in Luzhou. Then drive, all the way to 10:00 pm to enter Kunming city. Stay in Kunming for the first night.
② The next day, from Kunming to Dali, stay in Dali for the second night.
③ On the third day, leave Dali and arrive in Lijiang. Start our main topic in Lijiang. The cost per person is about 500 yuan (including food). There are 5 of us in total.
First Stop: Lijiang Impression Show
Here, we are curious, what kind of spectacular and magnificent Lijiang will the story of the Thousand Ancient Impression show portray?
It is mainly the stage play that is performed, which allows us to see the different customs of Lijiang. This way of expression is very profound, but it also makes the audience ponder.
Prelude: The Naxi Genesis
Act 1: The Daughter Kingdom of Lugu Lake
The beautiful Lugu Lake is a veritable Daughter Kingdom, a land of dreams and yearning.
Act 2: The Legend of the Horse Caravan
This opening line is like this: Lijiang is famous for the Tea Horse Road. In a sense, Lijiang’s glory is the glory of the horse’s hooves.
Act 3: The Splendor of Mu Mansion
What impressed me most about this scene was not the plot, but the dazzling stage and the gorgeous costumes of the actors!
Act 4: The Third Kingdom of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain
The Naxi people are a nation that advocates the freedom of love.
Coda: Searching for Shangri-La
Shangri-La is a Tibetan transliteration! Also known as Shangri-La, it means “paradise” in Tibetan, a mythical world in Buddhism, the origin of Kalachakra Dharma.
Shangri-La is a pure land, with no worries, no fighting. There are only those majestic snow mountains and joyful dances.
Second Stop: Lijiang Love Song Amusement Park
I have been to Sanya Songcheng before. Sanya Songcheng is mainly based on the water world, but Lijiang’s weather is obviously not suitable for such a design. Therefore, a plateau amusement park was created here!
An amusement park condenses the joy between people. Some people create their own miracles here, some continue their own stories, and some search for them. Which one are you? Don’t ask or think, just throw yourself into this crowd and let their stories and enthusiasm infect us. I think even a cold heart will temporarily melt!
Third Stop: Lijiang Love Song
This is a poignant love story, which reveals the boundless love, and also reflects that love is an eternal theme!
Actually, I didn’t watch much of the plot, but the on-site special effects brought by these performances are indeed very shocking.
Yes, the water on the stage is real, but the momentum and the way it is expressed, the visual impact it brings to the scene is still quite strong.
Actually, this time the time is not very sufficient, but it is very good to be able to drive so far for the first time and watch such a performance. It is quite rare!
Food and Accommodation Strategy
【About Accommodation】
This time, the place where we stayed in Lijiang is called: Villa Yulu. Xue Songyuan. It is at the foot of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and the overall level is quite high-end. The room is very large and the facilities are very complete.
【About Food】
Located in Dayan Ancient Town, it is called: French Southwest Restaurant. It mainly serves Western food, but it can also handle Naxi cuisine. You won’t be used to it, and if you haven’t tried it, you will definitely find it delicious. Because I have high requirements for food, the food here is also quite good.
