| Be a passerby on the Ancient Tea Horse Road. In a place called Jianchuan in Dali, Yunnan, there is an ancient town, which is an important post on the Ancient Tea Horse Road. It is so quiet that it is almost forgotten. In recent years, because of a TV series 'Go to the Place with Wind', it has become famous. I have been here a few years ago, and it is not an exaggeration to say that this ancient town is still my favorite ancient town, without one. I thought that the heat of the TV series would make this simple and pure ancient town commercialized, but I didn't expect that when I visited again a few days ago, I found that it was still the same as a few years ago, without catching up with the trend, still so simple and quiet. . 📍Shaxi Ancient Town 🚗Shaxi Ancient Town, Jianchuan County, Dali City, Yunnan Province (recommended self-driving, the whole journey is accessible by expressway, the ancient town has a parking lot) 🎫Free admission .

Around 8 o'clock in the morning, as the sun slowly rises, the ground temperature gradually rises, and the surface of the Yujin River also begins to rise fog. The Yujin Bridge before and after sunrise is completely different, before sunrise it is quiet and blue, after sunrise it is warm and brilliant.

The Heihui River is the mother river of Shaxi ancient town. It is clear and gentle, and Yujin Bridge is the first bridge to Dali, and it is the necessary road for all horse teams coming from the south and going to the north in the past. Standing on the bridge is the best angle to view the whole town, and it is also the gathering place for village children to play. The most charming thing about Yujin Bridge is at dusk. In the extremely gentle twilight air, the breeze comes with the fragrance of wild flowers and grass, the smell of soil, and the faint smell of cow dung and horse dung. At present, there are 5 to 6 daily customized routes from Lijiang to Shaxi, at 9 o'clock, 10 o'clock, 11 o'clock, 13 o'clock, 15 o'clock, and 17 o'clock. It takes about 1.5 hours to get to Shaxi ancient town from Lijiang.

The bridge, called Yujin Bridge, is an arch bridge that forms a perfect circle under the reflection of the water. This ancient bridge is coming and going, but it does not hinder its ancient beauty. The brick stone has changed color in the years, the grayish yellow is deep and shallow, and there are still horses passing by here, which is also a unique scenery on the bridge. The village on the other side of the river. The reflection of the water surface is beautiful, the trees and houses in the vicinity, the mountains in the distance are clearly visible, and a Chinese landscape painting is easy.

The Yujin Bridge on the east side of Si Deng Street was built in the Qing Dynasty, and has been collapsed and rebuilt many times. The existing bridge was rebuilt in 1931 by Shaxi people. It was one of the reasons why I came to Shaxi~ I saw the picture of Shaxi, which was taken by Tiger Master, and was deeply attracted by this ancient bridge. Always after hearing the horse bell, it will not be long before the horse team crosses the bridge, sometimes it is a tourist, sometimes it is the horse team that comes home from work.
