After the Snow, Cangshan Mountain is Like a Fairyland on Earth

Recently, influenced by cold air, Cangshan Mountain has welcomed snowfall. Snowflakes flutter down, decorating Cangshan into a dreamlike and magical fairyland on earth. Cangshan is located on the west side of Erhai Lake in Dali. Its main peak, covered with snow, presents a magnificent and majestic view and is one of the "Four Scenic Wonders" of Dali's "Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon." The clouds and mist around the mountain are ever-changing, with unique and beautiful shapes such as the "Wangfu Cloud" and "Jade Belt Cloud," adding a touch of mystery to Cangshan. Climbing to the summit, you can take in the beautiful scenery of Erhai Lake and Dali at a glance. Visitors can admire the beauty of Cangshan from various villages and towns along the lakeshore of Erhai Lake or enter the scenic area for a closer experience. The Jade Belt Cloud Trail, about 18 kilometers long at the mid-mountain level, starts from Xiaocen Peak in the north and extends to Shengying Peak in the south, passing through attractions such as Qingbi Stream, Qilongnu Pool, and Zhonghe Temple. Strolling along the Jade Belt Trail at an altitude of over 2,000 meters, you can overlook the Dali Basin and Erhai Lake scenery at any time, with a broad view that refreshes the mind and spirit. At this time of year, come to Dali to gaze at the snowy Cangshan, leisurely watch the clouds over Erhai Lake, quietly admire the dawn redwoods, and feel the boundless romance. Hurry and check in to this picturesque and poetic scenery!
