Old Town of Lijiang is located in Lijiang City, Yunnan Province, southwest of China, and Old Town of Lijiang, also known as Dayan Town, is located in the middle of Lijiang Dam. With the second batch of national historical and cultural cities Langzhong, Pingyao and Shexian, it is also called "the four best preserved ancient cities". It is the only ancient city without walls among the famous historical and cultural cities in China. It is said that because the hereditary ruler of Lijiang is surnamed Mu, building a city is bound to become a "sleepy" word. The name of Naxi nationality in Old Town of Lijiang is Miyamoto Branch, which is the granary and Branch is the market. It can be seen that Old Town of Lijiang used to be the place where granaries were distributed. Old Town of Lijiang was founded in the late Song Dynasty and early Yuan Dynasty (1end of 3rd century). The ancient city is located in Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, with an altitude of more than 2,400 meters and an area of 3.8 square kilometers. It has been a famous market and important town since ancient times. There are more than 6,200 households and more than 25,000 people in the ancient city. Among them, Naxi people account for the vast majority of the total population, and 30% of the residents are still engaged in traditional handicrafts and commercial activities, mainly producing bronzes and silverware, fur and leather, textiles and wine making.
Dayan ancient city is an ancient city without walls, with smooth and clean bluestone roads, completely hand-built houses with civil structures, and small bridges and flowing water everywhere. Dayan Ancient City is a small town with a strong cultural atmosphere. In the bright sunshine, there are always elderly Naxi people walking slowly. Dressed in historical indigo clothes and octagonal hats of the Red Army, they turned a blind eye and ignored the eyes behind them.
The streets in Old Town of Lijiang are built by mountains and rivers, and most of them are paved with red breccia, so there will be no mud in rainy season and no fly ash in dry season. The pattern on the stone is natural and elegant, which complements the environment of the whole ancient city. Sifang Street in the center of the ancient city is the center of Old Town of Lijiang. The waterwheel at the junction of the ancient city and the new city is the symbol of Old Town of Lijiang. There is a big screen next to the big waterwheel in the ancient city. The songs played every day are the most popular and distinctive songs in the ancient city, among which Naxi Jingdi is one of the more famous songs.
On the Yu He River system in Old Town of Lijiang, 354 bridges have been built, with an average density of 93 bridges per square kilometer. Bridges have various shapes, among which the famous ones are Suocui Bridge, Dashiqiao Bridge, Wanqian Bridge, Nanmen Bridge, Ma 'an Bridge and Renshou Bridge, all of which were built in the Ming and Qing Dynasties (14 ~19th century). Among them, Dashiqiao, located at 100 meters east of Sifang Street, is the most distinctive.
The shogunate in the ancient city was originally the hereditary chieftain shogunate in Lijiang. Founded in the Yuan Dynasty (A.D. 127 1 ~ 1368), it was rebuilt in 1998 and changed into an ancient city museum. The wooden house covers an area of 46 mu, with 162 rooms. There are also eleven plaques inscribed by emperors of past dynasties, which witnessed the rise and fall of the Mu family.
The Wufeng Pagoda, located in Guo Fu Temple, was built in the 29th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (A.D. 160 1) and is 20 meters high. Because its architectural form resembles Wufei Caifeng, it is named "Wufeng Tower". Wufeng Pagoda is a rare treasure and a typical example of ancient architecture in China, which combines the architectural styles of Han, Tibetan and Naxi.
Baisha residential complex is located 8 kilometers north of Old Town of Lijiang. It was once the political, economic and cultural center of Lijiang during the Song and Yuan Dynasties (10 ~14th century). Baisha dwellings are distributed on a north-south axis, with a trapezoidal square in the middle. A spring water is introduced into the square from the north, and four alleys lead from the square to four directions, which is very distinctive. The formation and development of Baisha folk houses laid the foundation for the layout of Old Town of Lijiang.
Shuhe residential complex, located 4 kilometers northwest of Old Town of Lijiang, is a small market around Old Town of Lijiang. The residential buildings in the complex are patchwork, and the layout is similar to Sifang Street in Old Town of Lijiang. Qinglong river passes through the center of the building complex, and the Qinglong Bridge built in Ming Dynasty (1368 ~ 1644) crosses it. Qinglong Bridge is the largest stone arch bridge in Lijiang.
Old Town of Lijiang has a long history and is simple and natural. The urban layout is patchy, with both mountain city style and water town charm. Lijiang folk houses not only combine the essence of Han, Bai, Yi and Tibetan nationalities, but also have the unique style of Naxi nationality, which is a rare and important heritage for studying the architectural history and cultural history of China. Old Town of Lijiang is rich in traditional national culture, which embodies the prosperity and development of Naxi nationality. It is an important historical material for studying the development of human culture.

Xiamen: Gulangyu:
Xiamen is located in the southeast of Fujian Province, bordering the Taiwan Province Strait, facing the Golden Gate Islands, and facing Bao Dao and Penghu Islands in Taiwan Province Province across the sea. Because it was the habitat of egrets in ancient times, it was called "Egret Island". The city is composed of Xiamen Island, Gulangyu Island, some coastal areas on the northern shore of inland Jiulong River and Tongan, and it is a scenic harbor city.
There are many islands scattered outside the port area, surrounded by mountains, the port is wide and deep, and it is not frozen all year round. It is a natural harbor with superior conditions and vertical and horizontal straits. There are four tourist areas in the city, including Gulangyu Island, Nanputuo, Wanshiyan and Jimei, and a maritime tourist line. Tongan and Xinglin are under development and construction.
Gulangyu Island is located in the southwest of Xiamen Island, 600 meters away from Lujiang River, which can be reached by ferry in 5 minutes. Gulangyu Island was originally called "Round Shazhou", also called "Yuanzhouzai". It was renamed "Gulangyu" in Ming Dynasty. Because there is a reef in the southwest of the island, whenever the tide rises, the waves hit the reef and sound like drums. People call it "Gulangyu Stone", hence the name Gulangyu.
Gulangyu Island, with an area of only 1.9 1 km2, is the largest satellite island in Xiamen with a permanent population of 20,000. The rocks on the island are majestic and tall, and many valleys and steep cliffs have been formed because of being beaten by waves for many years. Beaches, reefs, cliffs and rocky peaks set each other off. Gulangyu street is short, criss-crossing, clean and quiet, and the air is fresh. The trees on the island are green as flowers, especially the red tiles in the small building are particularly beautiful against the green trees. Gulangyu Island is lined with trees, hidden in tropical and subtropical forests. Sunlight rock peaks rise and gulls soar ... forming a beautiful picture.
Gulangyu Island is the "cradle of musicians" and the "piano island". Little Gulangyu has 600 pianos, the highest density in the country. As long as you walk along the paths in every corner, you will hear melodious piano sound, melodious violin sound, brisk guitar sound and moving and beautiful singing voice from time to time, and the environment is particularly charming. Music has become a particularly beautiful scenery in Gulangyu.
Gulangyu is an "architectural exhibition hall", and many buildings have a strong European style. Tolica, Onek and Corinth, the three pillars of ancient Greece, all showed their postures, including Roman columns, Gothic spires, Islamic domes, baroque reliefs, gatehouses, fireplaces, balconies, hook bars and protruding arch windows. It is colorful and full of classicism and romanticism.
Jimei scenic spot, with beautiful scenery, charming and colorful.

Sanya, Hainan:
Sanya, the scenery around is not much different, it is recommended to go to Yalong Bay and Wuzhizhou. It's really enjoyable to live by the sea for a while with my beloved, quietly.
1. The beaches and hotels in Yalong Bay are good and worth visiting. You don't have to buy a ticket, just walk along the beach and you can get in. The beaches in Yalong Bay are very beautiful. When you come to Sanya, you just don't go anywhere. Just stay on this beach every day, and you won't suffer. Swimming, walking, sunbathing on the sofa-very comfortable. Play when you see a hammock. Very nice.
If you like walking, it is recommended to walk along Yalong Bay Beach from Yalong Bay Central Square to Sheraton Hotel. You can go through the Marriott Hotel and take the avenue when you come back. There are few people here, and that kind of quiet and distant feeling is like walking in your own garden.
Get to know the weather before you go to wuzhizhou. We can't go to the island because of the heavy wind and waves. Wuzhizhou has clear sea water and white beaches, which are the kind of beaches for drinking tea in summer. The most beautiful scenery in Wuzhizhou is in Lover Bridge. Standing on the shore, you can see the coral reefs at the bottom of the shallow sea. The sun-watching rock on the island is worth a visit, where you can see the endless sea. The blue sky is connected with the boundless sea, which is very spectacular.
There is sightseeing bus on the island, so you can travel all over the island (you can't reach it on foot at half distance). It's windy in Wuzhizhou, so you need to prepare a coat! To make full use of the hotel bathrobes, bath towels and slippers, it is definitely useful to bring these things.
The water sports in Wuzhizhou are very complete. Diving is very good, mainly including shore diving and boat diving: the price is 380 yuan and 580 yuan/time. Before diving, the coach will teach you the theoretical knowledge of diving. It doesn't matter if you can't swim. When diving, the lift is controlled by the coach through the equipment.
The banana boat is a threesome, so you need to wear a bathing suit or you will be soaked and thrown into the sea, but it is safe and someone will save you. Once it felt like Titanic. Motorboat price 150 yuan/10 minutes. If boys and girls are together, then boys should take the initiative to sit in the back, because the back is easy to be thrown out, so be sure to pay attention to safety. 280 yuan/time for towing an umbrella at sea. Parachutes are pulled up by high-powered speedboats, and with the rapid progress of speedboats, parachutes flutter in the air.
3. There is Fenjiezhou Island, which is very good, but it is far from Sanya, and it takes more than three hours to come back, so you don't have to go for a short time. There are also Luhuitou Park, Tianya Haijiao, Nanshan and caves of all sizes.
4. If you go to road trip. Sanya is probably the best city in China to drive a convertible. Rent a car and go for a ride in the famous Coconut Dream Corridor on Sanya Binhai Avenue. Driving along the avenue from south to north, listening to the sound of waves lapping on the shore, breathing the fresh sea breeze and enjoying the seascape for a change, is very comfortable. The avenue goes all the way to Sanya Bay, which takes about 30 minutes from beginning to end. There are also some seafood stalls and resorts along the way. When you are tired, you can eat something and enjoy yourself.
