Dali | At Qitian Courtyard, Listen to the Whisper of the Wind

Arriving here feels like stumbling into a corner pardoned by time—Qitian Courtyard. The owner must be a "season collector," right? How else could the rice fields at the entrance hum with the wind, or the golden sunflowers blaze in the midsummer heat? 🌻 The flowers and plants are free-spirited residents, blooming carelessly by the walls, between stones, and along wooden fences—chaotically vibrant yet disarmingly beautiful. Order an Americano and settle into an old wooden chair. Bask in the sun, and time flies by— Close your eyes as the wind passes by— The richness of coffee, the sweetness of wildflowers, and the scent of sun-warmed earth... All swirl into a gentle breeze, softly pushing away the heavy seconds weighing on your heart. Suddenly, you don’t want to leave. Watch how the clouds lazily drift over the mountain ridges, how those "messy" flowers boldly bloom into a whole spring. 📍 Qitian Courtyard | Dali (Navigable, best visited on sunny afternoons)
