Life advice: Tips for avoiding lightning strikes for babies in Dali in January and February. A must-read for your first visit!

㊙Life advice: Some things to avoid for those who come to Dali in January and February✅A must-read guide for your first visit! ❌At present, more and more people are coming to Dali for tourism. It is estimated that the peak tourist season will gradually begin after January 20th during the winter vacation. As a native of Dali who lives in his 30s, I have sorted out some things to avoid when visiting Dali during the peak season: 🚌Transportation: ▪ Landing at Dali Airport: There are airport express trains to Dali Ancient Town and Shuanglang, with a one-way fare of 15-25 yuan. In the peak season, there are many people and you need to wait. It is recommended to pick up at the airport for family travel, so you don’t need to wait and have a good experience ▪ Landing at Dali Station: There are high-speed rail express lines to Dali Ancient Town, Shuanglang and other places at the high-speed rail station, ranging from 5 to 45 yuan. It is recommended to pick up at the station during peak season when there are many people 🎄Attractions: When talking about Dali, we have to mention its four wonders: Xiaguan wind, Shangguan flowers, Cangshan snow and Erhai moon. In addition, Shaxi Ancient Town, Niaodiao Mountain, Yunxiang Mountain, Wulongba Meadow, Weishan Mountain, etc. are also beautiful scenery that cannot be missed. You can choose a suitable route according to the length of time. Erhai Lake is a must-visit place when visiting Dali, so here is a nanny-level guide. 🔄Sea Route: Day 1 Haixi Sunrise Viewing + Cycling Sunrise at Xindi Coffee→Haishe Park→Xizhou Ancient Town→Covered Bridge→Gusheng Village 📍Xin Di Cafe: This is the best place to watch the sunrise in this season. The windows, curtains on the second floor, chairs, etc. are all camera positions. The indoor temperature is also relatively warm, so it is a good place to watch the sunrise overall. 📍Sea Tongue Park: limited to 200 people per day, free reservation from 9:00 to 12:00, the scenery is very beautiful in this season, those who want to enter can enter around 9 o'clock, those who want to enter in the afternoon can only buy afternoon tea set, 88/person 📍Xizhou Ancient Town: The wheat fields are not as beautiful as in summer. You can stroll around the ancient town and find a cafe with a good view to sit and bask in the sun. 🚴🏻‍♂ Cycling section: Husband and Wife Tree→Corridor Bridge→Gusheng Village There are relatively few tourists in this section. You can rent an electric bike to ride and play, 15/h. The scenery of the corridor is still very beautiful in this season, with yellow fir trees, flocks of seagulls, the blue Erhai Lake, and the blue sky, which looks like a winter oil painting. Day 2 Haidong Watching the sunset + Chartering a car Xingsheng Bridge→Nancun→Xiaoputuo→Shuanglang Ancient Town ✔Haidong is far away and there are no shared motorcycles/electric cars. It is relatively cold to ride around Erhai Lake in this season. It is recommended to charter a car for free and convenient travel. 📍Shuanglang Ancient Town: In fact, all ancient towns are similar, and not very worth visiting, especially during the peak season when there are a lot of people. The best scenery in Shuanglang is basically occupied by cafes or homestays. It is recommended to find a sea view cafe to have afternoon tea, bask in the sun and watch the sunset. 🏠Accommodation: 📍Dali Ancient Town: In previous years, the peak season was overcrowded and the price increased significantly. You can consider Dali Small Courtyard/Shanshui or Xiaguan area near the ancient town. It is quiet, cost-effective and convenient for travel. 📍Haixi Ecological Corridor: You can choose near Majiuyi/Cai Village 🍰 Food: Most of the restaurants in the ancient city are for the convenience of tourists. Local food is mostly concentrated in Nanwuli Bridge and Xiaguan City, with special Bai cuisine, Simao cuisine and other local cuisines. Those who want to experience local food can go there.
