Yunnan 2023, Day 4: Jade Dragon Snow Mountain And Jade Water Village

Yunnan 2023, Day 4: Jade Dragon Snow Mountain And Jade Water Village

This morning, I went to explore the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain (Yulong Mountain) which was about 15km from the city of Lijiang. As I already guessed, it was quite hot there even though there was windy sometimes. The mountain doesn’t seem to have much snow left, or to be exact, there was stone with very few white touch on it.

Just when a woman told me that Chinese people were a little show off with oxygen in the hand without using it, I saw a girl collapsing right in front of my eyes.

In the afternoon, I visited a Naxi village called Jade Water Village (Yushuizhai) to learn a bit about the Dongba culture of people here.

Tomorrow, I’ll visit a higher place. I hope it’ll cooler there.

Yunnan 2023, Day 3: Dali To Lijiang

Yunnan 2023, Day 3: Dali To Lijiang

In the morning, I went back to see a lazier ancient wall in the morning with few people and store openings. I even saw a group of old women at the Dali cinema square practicing their umbrella dance.

Then the bus took 3 hours to reach Lijiang around lunch. It was so hot (32 degrees centigrade) in the afternoon. At the Heilongtan (Black Dragon Pool), I could see the Yulong Snow Mountain from far away. Tomorrow I’ll take the cable car to its nearest site.

The Mufu in the Lijiang Ancient Town offered a rich history of Yunnan. The town had many beautiful flower-decorated houses which brought a sense of romance.

In the evening, I took a short stroll to the nearby supermarket where I bought some yogurt and a new bag. I thought it’d be fitter to my current bigger phone than the other bag I bought in Haining in 2019. I also tried my poor Chinese by asking a staff where to buy a belt and hand cream with some gestures.

Romantic Getaways

If you break up, go to Tibet, you can heal; if you are single, go to Lijiang, you can have a romance; if you like me, come and work with me.

Như quả nhĩ phân thủ liễu tựu khứ Tây Tạng, khả dĩ liệu thương; như quả nhĩ đan thân tựu khứ Lệ Giang, khả dĩ diễm ngộ; như quả nhĩ hỉ hoan ngã, tựu lai cân ngã nhất khởi đả công.

Nếu như bạn chia tay thì đi Tây Tạng, có thể chữa thương; nếu như bạn độc thân thì đi Lệ Giang, có thể tình cờ gặp gỡ; nếu như bạn thích tôi, ắt cùng tôi đi làm công.
