It is a pity that I did not feel so good as the scenery and housing along. The bus journey was truly beautiful but it is not humanly possible to enjoy such things when all you can think of is this Chinese bus going to get some of my carrots on its floors and seats? - 3 -I was very relieved to arrive in Lijiangthe place seemed bigger than Dali and initially more pretty as a picture. However, after walking for a bit around the place, I got the feeling that the place seemed overly touristy. This traditional and old-looking town had a very new feeling to it as most of the old style buildings looked very new. This was hardly surprising as the town suffered a major earthquake in 1996, but all over the place even now, they were still building “old” style housing. Feeling rather let down by the place, Peter, Rashad and I headed out for a meal. There were lots of barbecue (烤肉) type places where you selected your food to eat. Peter spoke to the restaurant people who told him that the place was cheap. We then made the big mistake of staying in the place without seeing the menu. Amongst other things, such as meat, we had also some tree and normal looking mushrooms cooked. When the bill arrived, it felt like we were having our pants pulled down. We did not think that Lijiang could get any worse until we saw the nightlife. The music was loud in the clubs or bars along the streets. “Cool, this might be some sort of Chinese dance off.” I was thinking. Given my previous bad experiences of Lijiang, I should really have known better. However, the good things about the place are numberless, such as the attractive natural scenery, the ancient architecture, the century-old practices, and the hospitable locals. 1.
