My trip to Yunnan Part II

Finally got the time to update my Yunnan trip:)The next day, we were still inside the Lijiang Ancient Village to just walk around. The scene during daytime is quite different from that at night. We took some pictures but felt very cold…as a result, I spent the rest of my day in a KFC inside the ancient village. That’s quite disappointed.

After Lijiang, we went back to Dali for accommodation. Since there’s no activities organized by the tour package company, we just spent our time to go up to a Square called Mingzhu Square. On top of that mountain, we can clearly see the whole Dali, very beautiful at night.

Look, this is the airplane we got up to go Banna!!
Banna has a very high temperature, even can reach 20+ degrees at noon, so this is the first time I can wear that little clothes during winter time. The main people in Banna is the Dai People. The Dai girls are all very beautiful and slim. They have biiiiiiiiig eyes with looooooooooong eyelashes. Ok, back to the scene.. this is the ancient forest in Banna which is really natural.
This special tree is given a beautiful name: Peacock trees. It really looks like a peacock with long tail.
This is also in the forest where we saw the performance of some animals. They are so cute and did fantastic job!!


Actually there’s not much to say to describe what is in Banna as there was just very natural forest everywhere. The most thing I like in Banna is the hotel we stayed in, it’s very comfortable and unique in design. Compare to other cities, I still like Dali and Lijing the most.
Ok, that’s end of my Yunnan trip, quite a meaningful trip as this is the first time I travel outside for that long and with my mom. One disappointment is that my dad’s so busy that he can’t go with us :(
One more thing about this trip is that I took 600+ pictures…I’m still wondering how can I do so. A memory in my 18th year.
