Let's write about Weishan this time. Hiahia, found that she is really a person who is easy to see and think differently, after arriving in Kunming, fell in love with Kunming, saw Dali, abandoned Kunming, after arriving in Tengchong, abandoned Dali, after arriving in Banna, abandoned Tengchong, and now, came to Weishan, and fell in love with here.
Of course, Banna has always been there, because it has been deeply rooted in my heart, in this life, or even farther ago, or even longer after.
Let's move on to Weishan.
Weishan is a county town under Dali Autonomous Prefecture, and its full name is Weishan Yi Hui Autonomous County. Seeing this, you can see that the residents here are mainly Yi Hui.
I arrived in Weishan last summer, fell in love with it as soon as I went, and after staying here for a week and returning to Beijing. Because I liked it, I only put it on hold for a week and came back for a few days. Sometimes when you think about it, this life is also willful enough.
In fact, when I stayed in Dali for more than a month in 2013, I planned to go to Weishan once. After all, the two are not far apart, only an hour's drive away.
However, that time was really unjust. That year, there was a big snow in Dali, and the road to Weishan was closed because the snow was too big, and the cars were halfway through, but they could only return. This time, it was 6 years before I saw it again.
The mountains are not big. And the average tourist arriving at Weishan will be accustomed to staying in the ancient city. This ancient city, really old, has a history of more than 600 years.
We know about the Dali Kingdom from the Eight Parts of the Heavenly Dragon and know that it belongs to Nanzhao. But few people know that the ancient capital of Nanzhao is in Weishan Mountain, and Weishan is the birthplace of Nanzhao culture. This is the famous Nanzhao Kingdom.
The streets in Weishan Ancient City are centered on the Gongcheng Tower and are built with a standard tic-tac-toe structure, with a total of 25 streets, 18 lanes, and a total length of 14 kilometers.
Next, let's start the journey of Weishan Ancient City with me
About the ancient city
First sight of the ancient city. When I arrived, it was more than 4 p.m. The old city in the evening, so peaceful
Another one, still peaceful. On both sides of the streets of the ancient city, there are residences.
We have seen such ancient streets in many cities, but the difference is that there are crowded shops on both sides of the other side.
And Weishan, it's really different. Many are Indigenous. Although there are some shops, they are all self-sufficient and very original.
Every house has couplets posted on their doors, and many of their couplets are written by themselves. Usual couplets are in black and red paper
And when it comes to white things, it is such a white paper and black words
The way the old neighbors pass the time is to play chess~~
Or playing with musical instruments
Or do some manual work and the days go by unhurriedly
People are laid back, animals are also leisurely. Come on a motorcycle cat
The noodles of Weishan are also very famous. The first time I saw such a noodle, it was very novel
The village next to the ancient city, I love this thick idyllic scenery
Weishan, is recognized in addition to its special history, there is a very special, that is, Weishan snack, very famous. In fact, when I wanted to go to Weishan, I was going to go to Weishan snacks. Of course, this is normal for someone who knows me well.
Let's take a look at the delicious food of Weishan?
The famous old king crossed the river bait silk. It's just down the street in the old city. A few days ago, I watched the rice food program "Tianya Kitchen King", and the last episode was about Weishan. And this shop, suddenly appeared inside
It was 4 p.m., which was fine because it was closed at 5 p.m. Perhaps not because of the meal, there are not as many customers in the shop as the legend suggests. Take a look, the price of this Weishan ~ Moreover, this shop is the most expensive in the Weishan bait shop, and the other stores are 7, 8, 9 yuan to get it. After eating, I felt even more happy for the people of Weishan.
Ordered a small set, how much is this set, please see the picture below: a large bowl of grilled broth + a large bowl of bait shreds + 4 plates of small dishes
Bait silk is a special snack in Yunnan, the raw material is made of rice, and the rice noodles are very fragrant. Just in terms of taste, the rice noodles are smooth, and the bait silk will be a little sticky and tough to eat. This bowl of white bait
Why is it called over the river bait wire? Is to pick up the bait wire dipped in the side of the grilled broth to eat, is there a kind of foot rush across the river?
There was also a small episode when ordering, and the hostess asked if it was spicy? I just said "yes", and before I could say "a little" in the back, I watched her scoop a spoonful full of chili noodles, and in an instant the broth became like this.
I thought it would be very spicy, but in fact, it is not spicy at all, and I can only eat the aroma of chili peppers. The white bait is dipped in broth and delicious.
Before reading a lot of netizen reviews, small bowls can not eat. I just want to ask, who said that? I ate this bowl of bait. Although Lao Wang's bait silk across the river is not bad, this is just the beginning in Weishan. One by one, they ate and found that the bait in Weishan was delicious.
Zhu Ji a noodle
This shop is my personal favorite. But his family was not in the ancient city, next to the ancient city. It takes 5 or 6 minutes to walk, and it is also an old shop in Weishan.
Students who have been to Dali should be able to see in the ancient city, many shops have written "Weishan Grilled Meat Bait Silk", grilled meat (pa read a sound, originally this word is a fire word next to, the right side of a bar), but can not be typed.
What does it mean to grill meat? It is the kind of state in which the hoof meat is stewed soft and rotten, and it is broken at a poke. The best grilled meat has to be slowly boiled over a low fire overnight, and it will be delicious but not greasy.
This is the famous "one noodle" of Weishan Mountain. A bowl of noodles is one, a pot of noodles is one, a family eats one, a thousand people eat or a ..." This is the most vivid description of Weishan's "one noodle". Anyway, it is such a stick, the plate is there, how much to eat, how much to lay down, a thousand people.
In the last video, the restaurant in this video is the "Su Lao Trinity Ancient Noodles" in the ancient city. Su Laosan's face once broke the Guinness Book of World Longest Records.
This large bowl, the first bite to eat, completely fell. The taste is exquisitely flavored, fragrant but not spicy. This bowl was all dried up, and at the end of the day, he took a large bowl and drank two mouthfuls of soup with great pride. After people who had always thought they could not eat came to Weishan, I decided to reacquaint myself with the amount of food I had eaten
This is another "Weishan old taste" fried bait silk. With sauerkraut and various spices, it tastes sour, spicy, salty and fragrant, an ordinary bowl of bait, but it tastes like the world. Looking at this picture now, I instinctively swallowed my saliva.
I want to go back to Weishan.
Weishan's various baits, noodles, rice noodles, there is no problem in finding a random one, it is such a confidence. They are all old neighborhood shops, if the craftsmanship is not passed, presumably it must not enter the mouth of the Weishan people, and there is no way to open it.
I myself like Zhu Ji, Yang Ji in the ancient city, and the old taste of Weishan Mountain.
Such charcoal fires can often be seen on the side of the street, all kinds of roasts. Like roasted sweet potatoes, bud rice, potatoes, and roasted chicken, duck and goose eggs, is not very fun.
Of course, the most distinctive thing is the roast bait block, which is also a bait word. The bait is forked and turned into bait wire, hahaha, I said nonsense. However, it should be the same.
After slowly roasting with charcoal for a while, you will see that the middle of the bait is bulging, and when the outside is roasted brown, it is fine. Brush up on a variety of sauces and eat them. This is a favorite food of the people of Weishan
Of course, you can also come to a deluxe version: fritters plus ham sausages. No, it's saliva again
actuate
I like to have breakfast here and feel the life of the local people
In the morning, a bait block and a bowl of thin bean flour loved by the people of Yunnan are really a beautiful breakfast
The local papaya vinegar is home-brewed. The papaya here is not the kind of papaya we eat, but the papaya unique to Yunnan.
Papaya vinegar can be drunk for free in many snack bars, and it feels a bit like tea. It was sweet and sour and delicious. When I left Weishan, I bought a large jar and mailed it back. But when he came back, he didn't move. It will be delicious to mix in cold dishes.
The first time I saw this, I wanted to know what it was like
When you open it, it is purple. The local people introduced that this was particularly delicious, but, this I never had the courage to try. I decided what it would be like to try it next time. (However, after seeing the picture, it is estimated that I still do not have the courage to taste it, and I do not know what the taste is in the mouth.)

After talking about snacks, let's talk about Weishan's dishes. I went to Weishan twice, and one of my favorite restaurants is also a local special fire restaurant: Lao Er Restaurant. Right in the old city. Looking at this house, it is estimated that it has been hundreds of years
Yard inside. Went a few times and ate in the yard. Very comfortable. Don't look at the environment so simple, this hotel, every time we go is basically full. Two yards front and back, which is the back, will be a little less people.
Steamed tofu unique to Yunnan. This tofu is slightly fermented, sprinkled with various spices, steamed in a pot, picked up a piece, served with rice, fragrant ah.
It's a mouthful of tofu that I can't forget. However, after going to Xingchong point for the second time, I did not have the surprise of eating it for the first time. Everything is changing, and so is the cuisine. But I still have to push it out, and if you come to Weishan, you can try it.
July and August are the time when Yunnan eats mushrooms. Of course, you can't miss such a wonderful time, of course, you must eat such a beautiful gift from nature.
Legend has it that eating a small person's porcini mushroom if you are not careful is the great love of the people of Yunnan. It is said that the porcini mushrooms should be completely fried, and if you accidentally leave an unspeaked slice on the shovel, you will be poisoned. However, this still does not stop the desire of the people of Yunnan to eat it.
It's really tasty, it's chewy and chewy, and I love it. In Jiangnan, it is risking death to eat puffer fish, and in Yunnan it is risking death to eat fungi.
Big chicken fir, this is also the great love of the people of Yunnan, but also my great love. Chicken fir is non-toxic, the natural taste of chicken fir is simply amazing, and its delicious, do not add anything, just kill everything.
This dish is the famous cold mixed brine meat in Weishan, I love it so much, spicy that taste Ah eat a thin slice of brine meat, life immediately has nothing to pursue
