Later, Yunluo heard that in Thailand, you can enjoy three hours for just over 100 RMB. I was heartbroken! After the treatment, I was covered in oil and shiny. I rode my bike to find my friends. Because we had an appointment to go to Dalat together, when Yunluo arrived at 6:20, the bus was already crowded. I hurried to exchange my ticket and luckily got on the bus in time.
It was only half past five when I opened my eyes in the morning. Xiang Chu Chunzi's soft body curled up in Yunluo's arms. Yunluo gently kissed the girl's side face, but the early morning in Nha Trang made people lose all sleepiness in an instant. At the end of the sea you can't see, there are islands that seem to exist and disappear. On the coast you can see, there are groups of people swimming in the morning that you don't expect. The morning glow is the background, and the sea cliffs are the silhouettes.
Yunluo felt like watching a movie while sitting on the sleeping bus. It was exactly six o'clock when he got off the bus and arrived at the entrance of the new coffee shop. When he was thinking about what to do today, a kind uncle passing by gave Yunluo and Xiang Chuchunzi some inspiration and helped Yunluo and Xiang Chuchunzi find a good place to live.
After getting off at New Coffee, walk with your back to the coast at the first crossroads, turn left and walk less than a hundred meters, you will see a small open space. Walk to the left fork in the open space, and you will see an inn recommended by Yunluo. The father of this family inn can speak Chinese, which makes Yunluo feel more at home in a foreign land.
Not only is the place clean and romantic, but the prices for the hotel and the four-island tour offered by the owner are the cheapest in the surrounding area. The extremely shy owner has a beautiful wife and a lovely son. Living here really makes you feel at home. After eating a few bites of baguette and iced coffee, Yunluo and Xiangchu Junzi went on a four-island tour.
The boss offered 130,000 yuan, including lunch. Needless to say, there was no such good price around. The bus left at 9 o'clock. Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi used the Internet for a while in the hotel. The bus was half foreign and half Vietnamese. About fifteen minutes later, Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi got off the bus and took the boat.
The tour guide on the boat was a contestant who looked like Obama. He could sing "The Moon Represents Yunluo's Heart" and "Take Out the Trash". He was very talented and loved by everyone. Yunluo listened to him chattering in Vietnamese while watching the sea change from green to blue. The sea water here is really blue, so blue that Yunluo wanted to swear. The sea water here is really as blue as my mother's.
The first island is for diving. The island fee is 20,000 yuan and the trip takes one and a half hours. Life jackets and goggles will be distributed. Yunluo doesn't know what professional divers think of this. For Yunluo, it was the first time to dive in such a place. He was really stunned. The visibility under the water was very good, and tropical fish could be seen, but the wind and waves were relatively strong, and many people were scratched by the reefs.
There is nothing on this island except diving. Yunluo didn't know what was on the second island. Because Yunluo and Xiangchu Junzi consumed a lot of energy for diving, they paid the 20 yuan island entrance fee and sat in the pavilion to chat. But it was on this island that a beautiful woman was spotted by Obama.
Obama took her to the island for free, and said he would invite her to his home, invite her to visit the house he built, cook seafood for her, go fishing with her, and let her sit on the back of his motorcycle to take her around the city for a day. Of course, the conservative Chinese girl embarrassedly refused.
But Yunluo thought that even if she went, the result would not be what she imagined. After all, the Chinese girls Yunluo met who went alone were all treated very highly. Most of them would regard it as an honor to invite Chinese people to their homes. Men who were deeply influenced by the romantic culture of France would naturally invite beautiful Chinese girls to their homes.
Hey, for the first time in more than 20 years, Yunluo had the urge to be a girl. But then again, enjoying this kind of courtesy also requires taking risks. When you go out, safety comes first. After visiting the second island, Yunluo and Xiangchu Junzi started eating on the boat. To be honest, the food was average, but it was a feeling.
After dinner, they arrived at the third island. Obama and his friends started to make a scene, singing and dancing. He even had a "girl" show. There were all kinds of vulgar things that made the audience very happy. There was also a diving show, which was wonderful. Later, when waiting for the boat to leave, a few Chinese girls told Yun Luo that if they got off the boat and went to the island, there were also paid activities such as motorboats, which were also very interesting.
The fourth island is an oceanarium. As usual, I had to pay 20,000 yuan for the island entrance fee. There is a small aquarium on the island, and the ticket is 50,000 yuan. Yunluo felt it was not worth it, so he did not go. He skipped the return ticket and walked around the main entrance on the reef. Although he did not go into the aquarium, he saw the outdoor aquarium "for free". The turtles and big fish were quite a sense of accomplishment.
Yunluo and Xiangchu Junzi were relatively slow, and they returned at about six in the afternoon. The girl took an hour-long bath, and Yunluo took this opportunity to rent a motorcycle for 60,000 yuan a day, with 15,000 yuan for gas, and looked at Nha Trang before dark along the coastal highway. Nha Trang was still full of vitality in the evening, with people chatting, walking, and playing football on the beach.
Yunluo found a 10-jin grilled lobster for 400,000 yuan and a grilled squid for 25,000 yuan. Because Nha Trang is rich in seafood, the seafood here is not only fresh but also cheap. It is said that if you get up early in the morning, you can buy a whole live lobster at half the price.
We also found a stall on the Binhai Avenue selling chicken rice for 20 kilos. The large amount of chicken or ham with sticky rice made us hungry. At night, Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi went to the beach, watched the night view, found a hotel, drank and listened to music. It cost 40 kilos per set, but we thought it was worth it because the resident singers were awesome and the environment was great.
This is the only one with resident singers around the beach, so it is easy to spot. There is a night market around the city hall at night, which is nice. After a hot day, you can eat some ice cream here. The tropical fruit shakes are made with fresh fruits and sold at a very low price, so they taste particularly refreshing.
On the way back, I ate a coconut bun from a roadside stall. The skin was green and it cost 3,000. I won't mention it if I don't like it. It was already 12 o'clock when I returned to my place. A room in this hotel only cost 9 dollars. Although I slept on the floor that night, such a low price still made Yunluo sleep very well that night.
Nha Trang is so beautiful, with beaches nearby and islands in the distance. Not long after the sun came out, the beach was already full of people. Yunluo even had the urge to stay here for two days, but in the end, according to the uncle's suggestion, Yunluo chose one day.
After reading the guides of previous travelers, I found that the previous cities are must-go places, but when I arrived in Dalat, I felt that they were dispensable. Some friends who don’t have enough time may give up this city, but for Yunluo, this city is definitely the clearest and most beautiful memory on the road.
The first restaurant Yunluo and Xiang Chuchunzi visited when they arrived in Dalat made Yunluo fall in love with this small city. This restaurant has a purple theme. Yunluo wanted to splurge, but after sitting down, she realized that this place was far less expensive than Yunluo and Xiang Chuchunzi had imagined. For example, the fried rice with shrimp Yunluo ordered was already too much, and Yunluo was overwhelmed by the shrimp as big as a men's watch.
Looking at the menu, it's only 55,000, which is about 17 yuan, and there's a Western dish of butter fried eggs, which is only about 20,000. The girl who was traveling with me also had a special liking for noodles, so she ordered a dish of pork offal noodles. It's about 35,000.11 yuan, because Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi have adapted to the Vietnamese habit of eating too little.
I didn’t expect that I would be in such an awkward situation that I couldn’t finish the food on my first meal in Dalat. You never know what kind of surprises the warm and friendly Vietnamese people will bring you. The girl is also a foodie. Maybe to avoid seeing Yun Luo’s miserable eating, she ate a full bowl of noodles and ordered a strawberry milkshake.
The strawberry milkshake here is very special, it is made of whole strawberries with ice and condensed milk, it looks delicious. Later, the girl ordered another cup of ice cream. Everyone knows how slowly and painfully Yunluo ate. To be honest, the portions are really sufficient. Although the dishes are delicious, there is no need to worry about gutter oil, but heroes should still eat according to their ability.
By the way, this cup of ice cream is 25 thousand for sesame flavor. It's a bit expensive, but I heard it tastes really good. It looks like it tastes like white sesame. Anything can be made into ice cream! It's amazing! I cried when I heard there's durian flavor! There's even ginger flavor! Anything can be made into popsicles! It's really amazing!
Walking slowly counterclockwise along the shore of Xuan Huong Lake, my mood suddenly began to settle down. Just like barium hydroxide meets dilute sulfuric acid, I didn't catch up with the rainy season in the highland mountains of Vietnam, but I felt closer to nature after the rain. I'm afraid that this feeling can only be felt by visiting this place in person.
Otherwise, how can you imagine the cold wind filtered by the lake water, the three layers of clouds leaving and arriving at different speeds at different heights, and the perfect harmony between man and nature. The good quality and cheap Blue Water meal is really unreasonable!
Dalat is located in the mountains and the roads are undulating, which is a great challenge for cyclists. However, it is precisely this kind of high and low terrain that allows Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi to observe this beautiful town from different angles.
Yunluo planned to go to the Cathedral first, and then go to Crazy House. The Cathedral is the largest church in Dalat. People go to worship every day. There are many stone chairs donated by believers outside, which are arranged radially along the statue in the middle, which is spectacular. From the back of the church, you can overlook half of Dalat City.
The architectural style of this city is obviously influenced by European architecture, colorful and well-proportioned. It feels very natural and scattered among the mountains, and it looks very comfortable. Walk east along the road in front of the church for 20 minutes and turn a corner to see it. On the way, Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi also ate cakes baked by local cake shops using beans as raw materials, which was very special.
The architectural style inevitably reminds people of the Spanish architectural masters. Although 30,000 yuan seems a bit expensive, fortunately Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi also spent more than an hour in it, it is still worth it. The buildings and decorations inside are all unconventional, the passages are even more winding, and there are rooms with different animal themes. The rooms can be reserved.
But it must be very difficult to book a room. It is said that all rooms for three months and beyond are fully booked. From the highest point, you can overlook almost the entire city of Dalat. With the fast-moving clouds not far away, you feel like you are really flying. Following the path they just came from, Yunluo and Xiangchu Junzi passed the church and continued to walk west.
Go to Dalat Railway Station to see the old trains that belong to the memories of Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi's grandfathers. The beautiful little train station is filled with the fragrance of a hundred years of history. The solid wood ticket window and stained glass windows add a bit of heritage to the train station. A few steps through the hall, you can see several famous trains quietly parked there.
Yunluo had seen these trains countless times in the guidebooks before coming here, so even though he saw such a beautiful and ancient train, he was not particularly excited. Instead, the children playing next to the train reminded him of his beautiful but fleeting childhood.
Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi were originally going to Bao Dai Palace, but because of the wrong route, they gave up this route today. Fortunately, they returned to Xuan Huong Lake before dark. Xuan Huong Lake is a good place, where anyone's petty bourgeoisie complex can be developed from scratch. From shallow to deep.
In a four-star hotel by the lake, you can spend 20,000 and overlook the entire city from the rooftop terrace. There is a small park by the Chunxiang Lake, where there are all kinds of snacks every night. There is also a small stall selling roasted quail on the roadside, and there is an auntie selling baguettes next to it. The two families do not compete with each other. They support each other.
One serves meat, the other serves pancakes. The two female bosses are very friendly. When you eat, they will smile at you, and keep smiling until you feel tired. There is also a small souvenir shop that is very special. It is usually a public toilet with a store on one side. It sells local specialty foods, which are not expensive.
There is also a small market on the north side of Xuan Huong Lake, which sells barbecued fruits at night and becomes a flower market and grocery market in the morning. Yunluo and her sister sat on the rooftop of the hotel for a long time. It seems that they won't be able to enjoy such good quality and low prices for a while. Unlike Hoi An, it is still quite lively around 10 o'clock, with remote control racing competitions and people singing and dancing.
Some people drink in groups of three or five. Some are sweet, and some are walking alone. Enjoy the quietness. In the evening, I send the girl back to her place. When I get back to my place, I originally planned to have a good sleep, sort out my thoughts, and prepare to go shopping again tomorrow.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Yunluo and Xiangchu Junzi went to a purple-themed restaurant by the lake. The food was delicious, rice noodles, strawberry milkshake, sesame ice cream, butter fried egg set, shrimp fried rice. The total cost was 255 thousand dong. After eating, they walked towards the church. The church is free, but there is nothing to see for non-believers.
Afterwards, Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi went to the direction of Crazy House. The ticket was 35,000 yuan, which was quite good. They took a lot of photos. Later, Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi drank coffee in a very retro restaurant in the middle of the road. It was a bit expensive. Every time at this time, thinking about the consumption situation in China, I would not hesitate whether to pay or not. The male waiter who brushed the eyelashes was polite.
Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi drank very happily, and after they were satisfied, they went to the lake, a flower bed, and a small square. Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi looked for Baoda's palace, but failed.
After walking for a long time, it was already dark when we came back. It was especially refreshing to walk by the lake, just the two of us, chatting about random things. As we walked, we arrived at the night market. Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi decided to go to the top floor of the hotel for a cup of coffee. For two hours, the night view, coffee, beauties, random things, the lakeside, this is what life is all about.
Yunluo and Xiangchu Junzi went to the market again to look at the remote control racing cars on the roadside, the handmade wallets, the flowers and the fruits.
…
Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi's itinerary today was Lovers Valley, Dalat University, Bao Dai Palace, and Elephant Waterfall. According to the boss's suggestion, Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi filled up 30,000 yuan of gas. As it turned out, Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi's whole day of running around basically used up all the gas.
Because Lover's Valley and Elephant Falls are located in the south and north, respectively, at the two ends outside the city map, it would be troublesome if the gas ran out, so it was safer to buy 30,000 gas. Going south along the map, Yunluo and Xiangchu Junzi drove for 20 minutes to Lover's Valley. To be honest, it was not interesting, just a park with a 20,000 ticket.
On the way back, they saw a baguette beauty. Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi were hungry, so they feasted their eyes and their mouths. In the north of Xuanxiang Lake, there is Dalat University. Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi visited it on the way and were pleasantly surprised to be welcomed by the students. Just when Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi were about to go to the library,
A group of students greeted Yunluo and Xiang Chuchunzi nearby. When they learned that Yunluo and Xiang Chuchunzi were from China, they greeted them enthusiastically and invited them to come over. It was around 2pm, which was their break time. This was their English corner. Everyone studied different majors, and the topics discussed every day were also different.
Sometimes they would chat for an entire afternoon, drinking coffee that cost 7,000 yuan a cup, in the shadow of the building, talking about life, ideals, morality, and the world. This state of mind is really hard to come by. Regardless of whether their academic achievements are excellent or not, they have the freedom that Yunluo and Xiangchu Junzi rarely have, which is undoubtedly the most precious thing for students' development.
Yunluo thought that it was because Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi were used to a campus lacking freedom that their thoughts were also shackled by invisible shackles. Later, a group of Koreans joined them, and later a group of Malays joined them. They took photos together, visited the library together, and discussed the history and culture of China with them.
Suddenly I felt that it was such a sad thing not to learn history well. I regretted not having read enough books when I needed them. The key is that I didn't read books in normal times. After bypassing Xuanxiang Lake, Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi headed north and finally found Bao Dai's palace. The ticket cost 20,000 yuan. It seems that Chinese people are accustomed to comparing the Forbidden City with other palaces wherever they go.
The result is naturally that the former instantly beats the latter, and in the end, I have no interest in watching these "simple" and "stingy" palaces. Yunluo can't help but fall into this established pattern, but the palaces that are less majestic and more homely make people feel more intimate.
This was a completely different feeling from the one I had in the palace built for the emperor. Later, I continued to head north and rushed to the Elephant Falls. It was already 5:10. When the security guard told Yunluo that the gate would close at 5 o'clock, Yunluo suddenly felt that even if there was a 45-degree elevation angle, there was no way to suppress Yunluo's deep and restrained tears.
After returning, Yunluo and Xiangchu Junzi bought up all the delicacies they didn't eat yesterday by the lake, including 10 thousand for cold plastic paper whose texture and color were very similar to plastic paper, 7 skewers of deep-fried meatballs for 10 thousand, Dorayaki for 7 thousand, omelette for 10 thousand, grilled quail for 15 thousand, and grilled baguette for 12 thousand.
While eating grilled quail, the young man sitting next to them from Saigon encouraged Yunluo and praised the beauty of Dalat. Some beauty is universal, such as the magnificent mountains and rivers, and the beautiful qualities. When Yunluo and Xiangchu Chunzi were eating grilled skewers, it started to rain heavily. The rainstorm in the mountains is different from the rainstorm at the seaside. It is still chilling.
After being away for a long time, Yunluo collected her thoughts and took a plane with Xiangchu Chunzi and Hongshu Tangtang back to Xihu City, China. The gifts Yunluo bought in Paris had long been sent back to the 36th Valley Villa in the Nanshan Villa Group by express delivery. What Yunluo didn't know was that An Chuyu was quite dissatisfied with this, but An Qingjue was quite happy, opening the gifts like opening a treasure chest.
On June 27th, Yunluo brought Xiang Chuchunzi to the mountain valley villa to meet An Chuyu, who was holding the plump black cat Heitan. This newly graduated fiancée was bathed in the clear sunshine and had a virtuous beauty. When she saw Yunluo coming back, she greeted him with a smile as beautiful as a flower and angrily punched Yunluo. (To be continued...)
