Colorful Yunnan - Soft Lijiang & Beautiful Love

In the Dongba Epic of Lijiang Ancient Town, records a kind of most breathtaking love, for love, a pair of lovers could calmly go to die together. Lijiang has the mysterious air and earth promoting the love hormone. Plateau let people full of tenderness and passion, because of anoxia, human is dizzy, less some sober and calculating hearts in city. Adding the snow mountain, blue sky, white cloud, flowing water and fragrant flowers, let people just like enter into the love paradise when come for Yunnan tour. For love, Lijiang seems like a dreamland, but a kind of reality could taste and enjoy.

Lijiang Ancient Town has various names given by the groups of tourists, among which, the Affair City is the most famous. Affair, a title sounds little ambiguous, full of bourgeoisie feelings, but is entrusted the anticipation of tourist friends to a kind of aesthetic emotion and once release of self. Indeed, the row upon row of tall buildings in big city give people the expectation, but also the depression; the crowded cars under the neon lights give people the excitement, but also the lag. Thought has been stagnated, spirit has been stopped. Sometimes, we need a kind of releasing, hope and entrusting. Lijiang is just right of this kind of place where let you forget all troubles and distresses. Here, what you should do is just relaxing follow your heart. It is relaxing enough to hiking, playing water, horsing and boating, even can stay in hotel reading and dazing in bar.

In Lijiang Ancient Town, always a kind of thing let you shock. First shock is to the history of old city. This old city with long history of almost 1,000 years, has no protection of city wall, but still kept perfectly, it really is a miracle. What is more peculiar is its culture, the originally kept Naxi culture, so that the Dongba Palace still performs the theater passing through thousand years, accompanied with a dance music popular in the bustling period Tang Dynasty. The words of Nanxi Nationality is also characteristic, more are a kind of hieroglyphic, but spread in thousand years, it is still used to unscramble almost all Chinese words. It is a mystery. Also the architecture of Lijiang is unique, full of old style architecture, the same tall eaves and bells, even the slate road has been worn flat also becomes the view of this old city.

What let you moving in Lijiang, besides the old architecture, national amorous feelings, beautiful views and delicious foods, the fashion smell in old city also attracts me deeply. Do not realize the life of old city is old as well as the old architecture. Lijiang is full of fashion, and Lijiang is the world for bourgeoisie. Two Chinese TV series let this city famous in China, and bars named after these two series are still bustling. The bars in Lijiang are decorated with the lanterns, song and dance of Nanxi girls, the laughter of foreigners, surrounded by rivers, mixed the classic and modern, foreign and national culture, lose countless worries and fascinate countless visitors…
