Dressing Up in Tibetan Costumes in Dali – A Fun & Budget-Friendly Experience! 🏔📸✨

#favouriteitinerary #chinatrip One of the most unexpectedly fun things we did in Dali was renting Tibetan (Zang) costumes for a DIY photoshoot! Instead of going to a touristy studio, we found a random local shop offering rentals for just SGD, including makeup. With our Sony A6400 and a tripod, we took our own photos—and the results were amazing! How It Worked 👗 Costume Rental – The shop had a variety of beautiful Tibetan outfits with vibrant colors, intricate embroidery, and matching accessories. The shopkeeper helped us pick the best ones! 💄 Makeup Included – For the price, they also did our makeup, giving us a more authentic Tibetan look with bold eyebrows, red cheeks, and braids. 📸 DIY Photoshoot – Instead of paying extra for a photographer, we used our Sony A6400 + tripod to take our own shots. We found the best angles, adjusted the settings, and captured stunning portraits at different spots. Best Photo Spots We Found 🏔 Near Erhai Lake – The blue water and mountains made for a dramatic backdrop. 🏡 Xizhou Village – Traditional Bai-style architecture added a cultural touch to our shots. 🌾 Golden Rice Fields – The contrast between the colorful costumes and golden fields was breathtaking! Why This Was Such a Great Experience ✔️ Super Affordable – Just $20 for costumes + makeup compared to expensive studios. ✔️ Creative Freedom – We controlled our own shots with no time limits or pressure. ✔️ Beautiful & Unique Photos – The Tibetan costumes looked stunning against Dali’s landscapes. ✔️ Fun & Memorable – From dressing up to posing, the whole experience was so much fun! If you’re in Dali and want gorgeous travel photos without breaking the bank, I highly recommend renting Tibetan costumes and doing your own shoot.
