元陽有令人驚歎不已的風景,位於海拔約一千五米,不太高,所以我們沒有頭疼。食店的環境卻是典型的破落,顯示村民看重的是充飢 而不是享受食物的文化。住在元陽的主要是哈尼族、彝族和漢族,女的多穿民族服裝,但男的服裝已經漢化了。哈尼族的女權低,我們見的哈尼族女人很操勞,要種田、建房子、 帶孩子、做家務,男人則較舒服,不用做那麼多工作。
 
 當地政府單在早上看日出的時間的門票收益已有七、八萬塊錢,旺季更高達十七萬塊錢,但元陽的主角農夫卻沒有從旅遊業獲取利益,仍是那麼窮困,種水稻給自己 吃要虧本,有些兼種其他植物。有些農民放棄耕田,出城打工去了,故有不少農田已荒廢。雖然政府還在建築不少旅遊設施,但隨著梯田逐步的消失,元陽的吸引力 將會漸漸減退。元陽的學生早上五點多便男生跟男生,女生跟女生結伴一起走七公里的路上學,一天來回便花四個小時,他們為讀書付的代價比香港的學生大很多。
 
第一天早上七點多我們花¥50在昆明市乘搭一輛白牌車往南部客運站,購買十點二十分的直通巴士往元陽新街鎮,巴士 在南沙停站落客,才上山去元陽新街鎮,巴 士在昆明遲開了,故到達時已五點鐘。我們的包車師傅潘建寧已在巴士站等我們,先送我們去菁口梯田拍攝,然後趕去買票往老虎嘴梯田拍攝日落。雖然天晴,但天 空灰藍,三天梯田的顏色也灰色,不過日出日落時水面仍泛橙金或粉紅的光,仍然覺得梯田是很吸引和美麗的奇景。第一晚在新街鎮的一間客棧投宿,沒有空調,故 要打開窗睡覺。將近晚上十點,窗外有公雞啼叫,我們不能入睡,於是向窗外大叫「不要吵!」結果公雞再啼多一聲便停止,感謝神!終於可以睡了。第二天早四點 多公雞又啼叫,我們被吵醒了,還好,五點鐘要起床去看日落。天很黑,潘師傅拿手電筒照路,我們跟他往勝村摸黑走下山坡,更要走一條傍邊是水田高高窄窄的田 埂去拍攝位置,很刺激。師傅很熟識拍攝,知道那個位置好,還帶了三腳架給我們。下午師傅幫我們訂了雲梯順捷酒店,有空調,不過外面廣場市民跳舞的音樂晚上 十點半才停止。鄉下地方絕不寧靜。下午遇上問路的日本遊客,結果他跟我們住在同一酒店,午後與我們拼車看風景,我們在壩達與一巴西男生交了朋友,第三天早 上看完風景後,師傅的兒子送我們和日本遊客到個舊,然後我們與另一個舊女士拼車回到昆明的火車站外。該處的的士由於路程短拒絕送我們到附近的酒店,那女士很努力的幫我們截的士遊說司機,最後她想出了妙計,建議我們先把行李放進的士,坐進去,才告訴司機往什麽目的地。這妙計果然行得通,終於可住進八駿酒店。神總在我們遇上困難時,派出天使來幫我們解決問題
 
No superlatives can fully describe the beauty of Yuanyang, which is located at 1500 meters above sea level in the southern part of Yunnan. We don’t have headache while staying there because of the low altitude. In contrast to the magnificent scenery, restaurants in Yuanyang look so run down, indicating that diners mainly go there for filling their empty stomachs rather than enjoying gourmet dishes. The county is basically inhabited by Hani, Yi and Han ethnic groups. Hani women have less rights than men, and so we see Hani women labor hard in construction sites, fields and houses while Hani men have less work to do.
 
The local government can rake in as much as ¥170,000 in receipts on a single morning from tourists yearning to watch the stunning sunrise. However, the farmers, who are the artists of the masterpiece in Yuanyang, get no share of the profits. Actually they lose money growing rice for self-consumption, so some of them grow some consumer crops such as corn as well. Life as farmers is so hard that some young people give up farming and go to work in cities. The growing number of dry terraces signifies the dwindling attractiveness of Yuanyang. Students in Yuanyang walk in groups of the sex for about 7 km to their schools before dawn, meaning that they spend 2 hours on walking every day. They have to make more efforts for gaining knowledge than students in Hong Kong.
