In the city also has many placeLongtan, the mouth of a spring water leakage. The old city uses thiskind of advantageous condition, the street free layout, does not askthe network neatness, the main street approaches the river, the alleyis near the ditch, the limpid water seepage Puts on Street flows the town,puts on the wall room, "each family running water, household householdweeping simon poplar" the poetic sentiment is this old city realportrayal, here although is the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau small town,actually quite has the Chiangnan region of rivers and lakes thecharacteristic.
The Lijiang old city calls greatly to grind the town, it by greatlygrinds, Baisha, ties the river three parts to be composed, greatlygrinds the old city is their centralized representative, therefore thepeople frequently are called it greatly grind the old city or greatlygrind the town. Moreover greatly grinds the old city to be located theLijiang basin the center, the old city southwest corner towers isresembling the book day great pen the article Pen Front, the Lijiangbasin then likely a side jasper makes in a big way Grinds, the ancienttimes "grind" and "the inkstone" are interlinked, therefore the oldcity calls greatly to grind.

Actually fellow honored guests are blind, thisalso is the Lijiang old city one wonderful, namely blind city gate,also blind city wall, because the old city simply does not have thecity wall and the city gate, because Naxi nationality's leader issurnamed "woodenly", if has constructed the city wall and the citygate turns "has been sleepy" the character, therefore the old citydoes not have the city wall, also did not have the city gate.

"Li Mr. always happy plants trees, the mountain city there is no placefly", Lijiang man life does not have three important matters: Buildsthe house, marries the wife, exposes to the sun the sun. The Lijiangmen to plant flowers, raise the bird, write, paint pictures, play themahjong to have the special hobby and the specially much time, the manexcel at all in the courtyard activity, in addition, they most love anitem of outdoors activity then is seats guests, but middle a Naxiwoman year only has in lunar New Year's Day can rest one day-long tobe lazy sense. From "hoped the lucky younger sister" "the Arab Leaguemilk" the short period of time time actually pure only has twocharacters "industriously", the Naxi women from dawn to dusk work,lives the small-scale business from the physical strength, from tidiesup the paddies to kill the pig, from sews clothes to light a fire toprepare food, each one picture descends to earth female celestial, butmen then has idled down, this idle is serious. The Naxi person Chineseperson pours forth, is eyes cannot take it all in, has no alternativebut to say was the Naxi women raises the Naxi culture.
The Naxi nationality is good at studying also may reflect in the oldcity common people residence construction. The old city common peopleresidence while widely is absorbing the Chinese, Tibet, waits in vainnational construction style, also melts this nationality'sconstruction culture and the esthetic consciousness to among, formedmany had the Naxi characteristic three one According to Wall, four gathers fivecourtyards, front the rear court, as soon as enters construction styleand so on number courtyard, and in gate tower, Front Porch theestablishment and the courtyard shop, six Gathers Gate and its aspect and soon decoration has formed the rich place characteristic and thenational characteristic. If asked in the central courtyard whichpartial richest characteristic, that is the main room six Gathers Gate andsix Gathers Gate on window pistil - "the four seasons is well-informed inancient learning". Although these also are studies the Chinese, Tibet,waits in vain the national culture result. But arrived the present,which nationality didn't have all to have to have six Gathers Gate and "thefour seasons like this like Naxi nationality each is well-informed inancient learning". You looked these six Gathers Gate, may install mayunload, facilitates nimbly, opens is the gate, shuts is the window.Among usually only opens two leaves, in case in the family has, White Matterthe visitor red more, walks when is not convenient, then six leafeddoors may dismount.
