My Travel #3: Trip to Shuanglang, Dali (part II) ---与大理双廊的第一次邂逅 之2

Hi, my dear Steemian friends, now the second part of trip to Shuanglang（双廊） is coming.
亲爱的Steemians，双廊之行之2来啦！
I have to acknowledge the fact that I didn’t know such a place until I arrived in Dali.
我得承认在这之前还不知道有双廊这么一个地方，去了我才认识了它。

Shuanglang lies in the northeast of Dali（大理）and on the northeast coast of Erhai（洱海，a lake). If I say Dali has unique national flavor, then Shuanglang, in my eyes, is like a land of idyllic beauty. There is no fixed shuttle bus from the bus station to the town. But it is convenient for you to rent a car, whose price can be found on the Internet. Only when you get there can you find it worthy of its name.
双廊位于大理市东北端，洱海的东北岸。如果说大理带给我的感觉是民族韵味浓厚的话，那么双廊在我眼里就像是世外桃源。去双廊古镇没有政府班车，不开车的话只能包车，大概的价格在网上可以查到，到了那里你会发现这真的是“古镇”。
My girlfriend and I had booked a stylish room, something like the house the Bai People（白族人）----one of the unique ethnic groups in China, live in. After getting off the car, we followed the house-owner to go through the narrow streets and reached our destination. All seemed so satisfied and peaceful. Besides, we could see the town clearly from outside our room. This place is worth visiting. The next day, we couldn’t wait to rent a motorbike to get around the town. So large was the town, where stores are more classical than those in the old town of Dali. Maybe it was more commercial. The most impressive thing in here was the freedom to shuttle back and forth around the town. Cars were forbidden to run on the streets of the town. We rode around the Erhai Lake. Everywhere we went, we could appreciate the beauty of nature. If you want to calm yourself and love taking pictures, this will be your next destination. Believe me, it will bring you different experience.
我和女朋友订的一家白族风格公寓，下了车跟随着老板在陈旧的居民胡同里绕来绕去，到了公寓还是很满意的，安静，又能看到远方，一个很适合旅行的地方。第二天我们一大早就迫不及待地租了个电瓶车，到处逛逛。古镇真的超级大，这里的商铺比大理古镇更有民俗的味道，也许是因为大理过于出名而被商业化了。在双廊的最大感受就是自由自在，看不到车水马龙，人山人海。步行也好，电瓶车也好，穿梭在双廊的大街小巷，我们绕着洱海骑行，走走停停，处处都是风景。想要找一个让心静下来的地方和喜欢摄影的朋友有机会一定要去双廊，相信它能带给你不一样的体验。

Local beer 风花雪月酒
At last, I want to rem mend several places and restaurants. If you want to have a good view of Erhai, you’re expected to book a room in the Sun Palace Hotel, which is also the famous dancer Liping Yang’s home. The pub differs from that in cities. Some light music makes you comfortable and relaxed. Besides, rent a motorbike to get around the town, which is considered as the happiest time of my trip. But do be careful when riding. Next, it is the food that counts most. Maybe the Ji Xiang Hong Restaurant should be your first choice. The dishes are so delicious, especially like the steamed or fried fish. Remember to taste local food, like waterless rice noodles（饵丝）. If you want to buy some gifts for your family or friends, flower cake（鲜花饼）can listed. The most important thing is that you can sit by Erhai to appreciate its beauty, drinking local beer（风花雪月酒）and having barbecues. What fun experience!
最后，绝对实在地推荐大家几个值得去的地方以及美味。著名舞蹈家杨丽萍在玉几岛上的别墅“太阳宫”，在岛上可以在别致的角度观赏整个洱海；双廊的酒吧也很值得一去，不同于城市里的酒吧，他们会将民族特色融合，别有一番情调；另外，租个电瓶车围绕着洱海公路骑行，是我自己认为最享受的事了，但是一定要注意安全哦。接下来要说的就是美食了，“吉祥红”饭店是我们来之前就做好地美食攻略，味道确实赞，喜欢吃鱼的朋友们一定要去尝尝，鱼是他们的一大特色。另外还是要尝尝当地的饵丝、米线，不知道读友们是否爱吃，反正我是觉得棒棒的。如果想把美味与家人朋友分享，那么鲜花饼是首选，并且可以保存较长时间的。最最最压轴的，当然还是烧烤和河鲜啦，洱海的水产当然是没得说，大虾和扇贝看着都流口水。洱海边吃烧烤，吹着风，看海面，喝着“风花雪月”啤酒，嚼着美滋滋的肉，你们自己体会吧。
