The wind of Erhai turns my thoughts into poetry

Every morning, I am gently awakened by the wind from Erhai. Opening the window, the clouds over Cangshan Mountains drift slowly across Erhai, casting moving shadows on the water’s surface. Amid the shimmering waves, my reflection seems to be shattered and pieced back together; the unreal beauty of that moment always leaves me dazed upon waking—I really am here. The guesthouse seems to understand my thoughts. In the wabi-sabi style space, everything is gentle and tranquil. Familiar melodies flow from the Marshall speakers, and soaking in the bathtub, I watch the sunset dye the horizon pink. It feels as if all the romance in the world pauses just for me. At dusk, the terrace becomes my most cherished corner. Lighting a lamp, I quietly watch the nightfall over Erhai gradually brighten. Hair and thoughts flutter with the wind, and all the accumulated fatigue is blown away, leaving only a peaceful calm settling in my heart. Here, the thoughtful service feels like the company of family, allowing me to completely let down my guard. On the hillside of Wenbi Village, there is no noise of traffic, only the silent gaze between the mountains, sea, and me. The feeling of being gently wrapped by time is so precious that I am reluctant to leave. If you also want to find a place to quietly be with yourself, why not come here? Let the wind of Erhai gently turn your thoughts into lines of poetry.

Ready to soak up some stunning scenery and laid-back vibes in Dali? 🍞🌇 My trip was all about epic rooftop sunsets over the Dali Ancient City, delicious street eats, and those classic Yunnan skylines. If Chinese architecture and golden hour landscapes get you hyped, keep reading! Top Spots to Visit — Dali Ancient City Guide: 1. Dali Ancient City (No. 42, Yita Road, Gucheng District, Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture) This entire area is an open-air museum of classic Chinese architecture and vibrant lifestyle. Wander the alleys for Insta-worthy rooftops and angled sunset shots. The city is open all hours, so time your strolls for either sunrise or sundown for magical views. 2. Rooftop Hangouts: Find a café or guesthouse rooftop just before dusk. Locals and travelers all love these spots for a chill sunset scene over tiled roofs and distant mountains. Foodie Tips: The Dali old town is packed with bakeries — grab some fresh bread or sample the grilled meats from street vendors. Don’t skip local flower cakes for a sweet treat. The food here is seriously underrated, so snack while you walk! How to Get Around: Skip taxis — rent an e-bike! The old town area is super walkable, and e-bikes make it easy to zip between hidden corners without missing sunset. All main spots are clustered, so there’s zero fuss with maps. Extra Tips: Cash is handy but Alipay/WeChat Pay are also widely accepted. Weather’s best in spring and fall (think sunny, mild afternoons and cool evenings). No visa hassle for most major nationalities—just check trip.com for entry requirements. #DaliVibes #YunnanSunset #ChinaTravel Guide #RooftopViews #TripDotCom #naturalwonders #happyhalloween

Dali’s Enchanting Cloudscape Roadtrip 🌫️🌾🌺 Get ready for a visual feast in Dali! This route strings together rain-kissed wetlands, dreamy meadows, and classic Chinese architecture under dramatic clouds—perfect for nature lovers and photographers alike. Start early at Shuanglang, a lakeside village famed for Bai cultural buildings. Stroll along the alleys, snap close-ups of ceramic rooftops and capture moody shots of the lake framed by mist. Next, head to the Erhai Ecological Corridor (Panxi Service Station) for serene riverside views and stretches of emerald grassland. Spend time at Erhai Wetland Park for wide landscapes dotted with dew-heavy flowers—bring a waterproof jacket, as showers are common. For an Insta-worthy moment, stop at the Panxi S Bay Wheat Field Photo Spot: rolling yellow-green fields against dramatic mountain backdrops make for unforgettable portraits. Must-Dos: - Explore Shuanglang’s old town, sampling local snacks and relaxing by the water. - Walk or bike along the Erhai Ecological Corridor, stopping at quiet viewpoints and wooden boardwalks. - Search for unique wildflowers in Erhai Wetland Park; sunrise or post-rain times are magical. - Photograph the wheat fields—look for low angles and the interplay of mist and color. Tips: - Weather is changeable. Layers and rain gear are a must. - Cloudy days deliver softer light and fewer crowds—embrace the mood! - Walking paths can get muddy during rain. Sturdy shoes recommended. - Each attraction is open all day; early mornings mean tranquility. #Dali #NatureVision #CloudyMagic #WetlandWonders #ChinaTravel
