Dali Ancient City in the Sun

- Location: Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture is located in the northwest of Yunnan Province, at the junction of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau and the Hengduan Mountains, backed by Cangshan Mountain and facing Erhai Lake. - Climate: It has a north subtropical plateau monsoon climate, with a small annual temperature difference and indistinct seasons. November to March is the windy season, June to September is the rainy season, and the other months are mostly sunny, with plenty of sunshine, blue skies, and a relatively dry climate. Natural Scenery - Cangshan Mountain: Composed of 19 peaks, it is majestic and magnificent, with snow on the top all year round, and the clear and mirror-like Erhai Lake complementing each other, forming the beautiful scenery of "Cangshan Snow and Erhai Moon". There is also rich vegetation and diverse ecosystems on the mountain, making it a great place for hiking and adventure.  - Erhai Lake: One of the four famous scenic spots of "Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon", the lake is clear and the surrounding scenery is charming. Under the sunlight, the lake surface is sparkling, like a fairyland. You can choose to take a boat tour, ride around the lake, or sit quietly in a lakeside cafe to enjoy the lake and mountain scenery.  - Wenbi Village: It has the most beautiful road in Dali, along which you can see Erhai Lake reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, like a natural painting, making it an excellent place to shoot seaside blockbusters.  Cultural Scenery - Dali Ancient City: It has a long history and rich cultural heritage, with streets laid out in a typical checkerboard pattern, and buildings with blue tiles and white walls scattered in an orderly manner, full of ancient charm. The sun shines on the stone-paved roads of the ancient city, and you can stroll around, visit small shops, and enjoy the slow life.  - Xizhou Ancient Town: A Bai ethnic town, it preserves many Bai residential buildings from the Ming and Qing dynasties, with carved beams and painted rafters, overlapping brackets, and exquisite decorations. The wheat fields of Xilinyuan are also a major feature, green in spring and summer, and golden in autumn and winter.  - Fengyangyi: A century-old town on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, the whole village is simple and quiet, and it is the filming location of the TV series "The Courtyard of the Wind", where you can feel the strong historical atmosphere and simple folk customs.
