    ancient horse road in Puer

    The Tea and Horse Road of Southwest China, aka the " Silk Road of Southwest China" – but called Chamagudao in Chinese (cha-ma-gu-dao = Tea-Horse-Ancient-Road) – is an old trade route that stretched east to west and south to north across southwest China. This ancient trade routes eventually came to be renowned for the two main commodities for which the routes were named: tea and horses, though there were other important commodities such as sugar and salt – but curiously, not silk – that were traded along these routes. Our own Tea Horse Road adventure began in the township of Pu'er, approximately 400 kilometers south of Kunming. The excursion passed through some of the mountains and steep valleys that are signatures of the Yunnan landscape. Eventually, the corn and wheat along the roadside gave way to bananas, rubber and, eventually, tea.

    Exploring Pu'er...🤗

    The ancient town at Tea Horse Road is relatively easy to get to by taxi or private car, as Pu'er is a small place and this is easy to find. Arriving here, we took a nice stroll along the canal and through the scenic old town area, stopping for iced coffee and lunch also. Prices are not expensive here, even though this is considered a tourist site. The buildings were great to look at, as well as the old ancient walls that are built around the old town. We came just before Chinese New Year, therefore the place wasn't that busy, especially in the afternoon we visited. If you are in Pu'er, then it's definitely a place to visit along with the tea museum and seeing a plantation. You should go to the tea museum first and learn about the history of this place before visiting, as it enables you to appreciate the historical perspective of this place. 🍵👘😋 #tripblazers #tea #yunnan #tigeryear2022

    Discover a hidden gem for hiking in Yunnan! It's so addictive!

    👉 Location: On the Pu'er Tea Horse Road, only 40 minutes by car from Xishuangbanna and 2.5 hours from Kunming. It's super convenient to get there by car🚗 🌈 We went hiking in the rainforest with a local friend, and it was so much fun! 😎 The trail is 3km long and takes about 3 hours to complete. We went with a guide and six people in total. We hiked, crossed streams, rode bamboo rafts, and swung on rainforest swings. The trail isn't long, but there are so many things to do! Along the way, we could hear the cicadas, birds, and the sound of running water. The sunlight filtering through the trees was so beautiful! It was amazing to be back in nature🌟 It's a must-visit for anyone traveling to Yunnan! 📸 It's a great place to take photos, and every shot is a masterpiece. ⚠️ Be sure to book 1-2 days in advance and wear rain boots.

    Immersed in leisurely times, the small town of Pu'er in Yunnan enjoys the understated beauty of relaxation

    Mentioning Pu'er, the aroma of tea is naturally self-evident, but the charm of Pu'er goes far beyond that. Hidden in the southern corner of the clouds, this small town harbors many ancient towns that time has not forgotten. Some are hidden in the mountains and forests, quietly enjoying the long years; others stand on the ancient Tea Horse Road, with every brick and tile telling the simplicity and resilience of the past. 🏞️🌟Bixi, a place with stories hidden in its name, where time flows slowly, leaving mottled traces and immortal poetry. Unlike the bustling hustle and bustle of Dali and Lijiang, Bixi is more like a gentle hermit, attracting travelers who long for a place for their souls to rest with its unique tranquility and simplicity. 🏡🌟Stepping into this earthly paradise is like traveling through a tunnel of time, back to an era when horses and carriages were slow, and letters were far away. The legacy of the Ming Dynasty quietly flows between every bluestone slab and every carved wooden window in Bixi. The ancient town is not large, but it is enough to make people forget the hustle and bustle, immersed in that long-lost tranquility and calmness. 🏞️🌟Driving north from Mojiang County, Bixi comes into view in no time. As a shining pearl on the ancient Tea Horse Road, Bixi not only carries a heavy history but also nurtures a unique cultural charm. Walking through it, the old houses with yellow walls and gray tiles are scattered in an orderly manner, the beauty of ancient charm is fully displayed between the flying eaves and corners, and every brick and tile seems to be telling the glory and vicissitudes of the past. 🏞️🌟On weekends, the market in the ancient town is bustling, with the lively sounds of bargaining mixed with laughter, and the enticing aroma rising from the street stalls, weaving a vivid picture of life. And when the sun sets, the hustle and bustle gradually subsides, and the ancient town slowly returns to tranquility, leaving only a faint sense of fireworks and endless reverie. 📍🌟Travel Tips: Destination: Bixi Ancient Town, Mojiang Hani Autonomous County, Pu'er City, Yunnan Province Tickets: Free admission, experience the purest ancient town lifestyle Transportation: It is recommended to drive, it takes only a short drive from Mojiang, and about two hours from Pu'er Food Exploration: Don't forget to visit the nearby vegetable market, where you can find authentic Yunnan flavors that will surely satisfy your taste buds.

    You must visit Na Ke Li in Pu'er, Yunnan!! It's so photogenic

    In Pu'er, I found a town just like the one from 'The Place with the Wind' Escaping the crowded Xishuangbanna, I instantly felt the world become tranquil! Na Ke Li was once an important post on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, and it still preserves many historical relics, including the century-old Rongfa Store, horse lanterns used by caravans, stone troughs, and other remnants. "Na Ke Li is a small post on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, nestled between highways, provincial roads, and mountains. A simple walk takes only half an hour to complete, but if you go into shops, taste tea, take photos... you can spend half a day. The first stop upon reaching Pu'er I skipped the commercialized 'Ancient Tea Horse Town' And came to this niche and less popular Ancient Tea Horse Town 'Na Ke Li' with its cloudless blue sky, historical stone-paved alleys, and courtyards full of blooming flowers The simple and honest villagers, the comfortable and cozy slow life... It's like entering the town from 'The Place with the Wind' It's about a 25km drive from Pu'er city center, roughly 30 minutes, to reach this tranquil post on the Ancient Tea Horse Road A complete tour takes about an hour Then you can just pick any caravan cuisine to fill your stomach, the taste is all good, then find a tea house or coffee shop to drink tea or coffee, bask in the sun, it's totally 'The Life We Aspire to' Ding, it's so healing... These shops are all good, you can check in directly: Yun Lai Sheng Courtyard, Chang Ting Wai Courtyard, Deep Mountain Coffee Shop, Na Ke Li Caravan Cuisine. The following street foods can be avoided without trying: · Rice Noodle Shrimp, Sour Plum Soup· Passion Fruit Juice Also, you must try the roadside fruits, oranges bananas They are all fresh, cheap, and delicious!! If you don't want to squeeze with others at other scenic spots Take half a day to 'Na Ke Li' to feel the wind, feel the light, as if the still slow time can heal all unhappiness : Na Ke Li Village : Na Ke Li Village, Tongxin Town, Ning'er County, Pu'er City, Yunnan Province: 30 minutes drive from Pu'er city center, it's very convenient to drive or take a taxi, but remember not to take the highway, there's no exit, just take the G213 national road and it's ok Free of charge

    Pu'er is really too Fuji (with walk route)

    Pu'er is truly a city for lying flat I think if one day I get laid off again I might be willing to come here and lie down for a month Half a day's time, walking and stopping, seems like I did what I could only do in Beijing over the weekend Things Simao Old Street doesn't have the deliberate design of commercial check-ins Only small thoughts and small arts Underdeveloped and even a bit rundown But the opposite of developed is the simple characteristic of this place Left hand coffee right hand tea Drinking coffee in the city is to be a good ox and horse Only when you come here do you feel that coffee and tea are delicious to taste Drank over and over again It has the magic to slow you down So comfortable that there's no way to be a special forces Route You can eat at the canteen Nuoxing: Huairi fried potatoes really taste like my childhood. Daijia Alley: A small alley that might be just two or three hundred meters long, with less than 20 coffee and various small shops, it's very comfortable to find one and sit for an afternoon. Duojia Coffee: A great coffee shop, you can also buy beans, 38 yuan for a pot of hand-brewed coffee, is this not asking for money? Xingshu Da Yuan: A very chill little area, it was under road construction when I went there, but it doesn't affect its relaxation and freshness. Tea Horse Ancient Town: The ancient town is a commercial one, inside you can walk a small section of the Tea Horse Ancient Road, the town itself is just some shops, worth experiencing are Pu'er roasted tea and the evening bonfire

Inside there are electric cars, horseback riding, and cable cars, which require an additional fee. I hiked up and down the mountain the whole way, which took about three hours!

    The Ancient Tea Horse Road | Songming Pavilion

    ❥ Songming Pavilion, a bustling hub of trade, thrived with border commerce during the Song Dynasty. Frequent border conflicts led to a scarcity of warhorses, prompting the Dali Kingdom (present-day Yunnan) to establish a tea-for-horse exchange market in Buri (present-day Pu'er). This not only strengthened the regime but also bolstered the rear, proving to be a far-sighted strategy for border governance. Drift back to the bustling tea-horse trade market, tread the thousand-mile-long Ancient Tea Horse Road, and reminisce about the poignant stories of the horse caravans. ❥ Along the ancient trail, a ten-mile-long pavilion reflects the secluded orchids, while a half-acre gallery hides the wilderness charm. Beneath the blue sky and white clouds, atop the serene ancient path, a sense of delight abounds. ➠ Location: Pu'er Avenue, Simao District, Pu'er City, Yunnan Province (within the Tea Horse Road Scenic Area).

    Puer Tea Ancient Road—Free Admission, Free Parking || You really know how to enjoy yourself!

    Address, Pu'er City, Yunnan Province The Ancient Tea-Horse Road originated from the ancient tea-horse barter trade on the southwestern frontier, prospered during the Tang and Song dynasties, flourished in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and reached its peak in the late period of World War II. The Ancient Tea-Horse Road is divided into the Sichuan-Tibet and Yunnan-Tibet routes, connecting Sichuan, Yunnan, and Tibet, and extending into Bhutan, Sikkim, Nepal, India, and all the way to the Red Sea coast of West Asia and West Africa. The Yunnan-Tibet Ancient Tea-Horse Road was roughly formed in the late 6th century AD. It starts from the main tea-producing areas of Simao and Pu'er in Yunnan, passes through today's Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture and Lijiang area, enters Tibet through Shangri-La, and reaches Lhasa directly. 🌈 On the Ancient Tea-Horse Road in Pu'er City, walking up the mountain, there are many tea trees planted, and local tea farmers sell their own tea leaves. We bought two bags.

    Living in Yunnan

    Living in Yunnan Puer is a quiet little city. When you stroll on the Shilong Road in May, it's a street of blooming phoenix flowers; when you step into Puer in November, it's the smoke from the ancient villages. In Puer, you can taste the refreshing and sweet aftertaste of Puer tea, with its fragrance lingering. People can taste the quiet and leisurely slow life in a cup of tea, or they can trek long distances to find the unique Puer world in each mountain, whether it's the worldly atmosphere of Jingmai Mountain or the martial arts world of Wuliang Mountain, they are all telling a different Puer story from the outside world. Such Puer, accompanied by the sound of horse hooves on the ancient tea-horse road, echoes the distant sound of the horse caravan years...

    Ancient Tea Horse Road Scenic Area

    The Puer Tea Horse Road Tourist Area is located in Puer City, Yunnan Province, the world's tea source, 5km away from the Puer North Expressway toll station, 2km away from the city center, adjacent to the provincial-level nighttime culture and tourism consumption cluster, namely the Tea Horse Ancient Town tourist town. The ancient Tea Horse Road site within the scenic area is an important section of the Tea Horse Road's north-south direction, the starting point for tribute tea to enter the capital, and to date, the most completely preserved, longest, culturally richest, and ecologically best section along the route. It is said that Simao is the starting point of the Tea Horse Road, and the Bajiao Slope Tea Horse Road has a history of more than 1800 years, which is still well preserved to this day. This former tea and salt official road extends northward through forests lush with vegetation, shaded by green trees, and filled with the chirping of birds, a natural oxygen bar that is enchanting. Perhaps because there are many spotted doves on the mountain, it was named Bajiao Slope Tea Horse Road. This ancient road is about 11 kilometers long, starting from the southern Simao Lamei Slope and reaching the foot of Simao Slope to the north. The foot of Simao Slope was once an important post station on the Tea Horse Road, a Yi ethnic village. In 2003, the Simao area was restructured into Simao City, the county-level Simao City was changed to Cuiyun District, and in January 2007, the former Simao City was renamed Puer City, and Cuiyun District was renamed Simao District. Simao District is the starting point of the historical Tea Horse Road—the Southern Silk Road, one of the three major customs towns in Yunnan, an important transportation hub and golden frontier for China's opening up to Southeast Asia and South Asia, and the core area of Puer's opening up to the outside world. The Puer Tea Horse Road Tourist Area is a 4A-level scenic spot, about a 15-minute drive from Puer Railway Station. ⏳Visiting Time: Purchase tickets for a visit, group discounts available. Visiting time 2 to 3 hours.

    The Ancient Tea Horse Road of Pu'er

    The Ancient Tea Horse Road refers to the commercial trade routes that have been used since the Tang Dynasty to meet the demands of the local people in the southwest and northwest regions of China, with tea leaves and horses as the main commodities traded, and horse caravans as the main mode of transportation. It is a corridor for economic and cultural exchanges among the ethnic groups in southwest China. The Ancient Tea Horse Road consists mainly of three major routes: the Sichuan-Tibet Road, the Yunnan-Tibet Road, and the Qinghai-Tibet Road (Gansu-Qinghai Road), supplemented by numerous branches and sub-routes, forming a vast transportation network that spans Shaanxi, Gansu, Guizhou, Sichuan, Yunnan, Qinghai, and Tibet, extending to South Asia, West Asia, Central Asia, and Southeast Asian countries. The existence of the Ancient Tea Horse Road has promoted the economic and cultural development of various ethnic groups, solidified their spirit, strengthened the unity among them, and served as a path of unity that promotes ethnic harmony and maintains border security. The Ancient Tea Horse Road is a witness to China's historical unity and a symbol of ethnic solidarity. In the Simao area, the Ancient Tea Horse Road radiates from Simao to all directions.

After taking the cable car, you can come here to experience the intangible heritage project of osprey fishing, feed the deer, and have close interactions with the small animals. In front of the Caravan Museum, you can also ride a Ferghana horse and show off your prowess. The sound of bells in the mountains indicates the caravan's arrival, a true portrayal before the 1950s. In today's world of bustling traffic, the caravan is no longer present, and the crisp sound of horse bells can no longer be heard in the mountains. The Tea Horse Trail has become even quieter. But the echoing sound of horse bells and the mountain songs of the horsemen are still fresh in memory: In March, on the third day of the third month, driving mules and horses into the tea mountains, Pu'er tea is loved by everyone, carrying tea leaves to faraway places. The ancient tea gardens, ancient tea trees, ancient tea brands, old tea factories, ancient towns and markets, horse inns, ancient trails, ancient bridges, and other immovable cultural relics on the Tea Horse Trail, as well as movable cultural relics such as horse gear, tea utensils, weighing instruments, firearms, musical instruments, clothing, and the rich caravan system, artistic works, historical memories, and many other spiritual cultures, are all heritage worth cherishing.
