There is a kind of beauty called Dali, there is a life called Yunnan

When the wind blows through the wheat fields of Xizhou Ancient Town, when it ripples across Erhai Lake, when it sways the shore-side metasequoias, the wind takes shape. Go to where the wind is, and feel its form. Dali Ancient City, once the capital of the ancient Nanzhao Kingdom and Dali Kingdom. On the north gate tower, four large characters read: "Crown of History in the Southern Frontier." Before the Ming Dynasty, during the Nanzhao Kingdom, Dali Kingdom, and even the Yuan Dynasty, Dali was almost always the economic, political, and cultural center of Yunnan. Thus, historical records about Yunnan before the Yuan and Ming dynasties were predominantly centered on Dali. @CommunityBenefits @Ctrip Community Creation Center
