Are you sure you won't come to Dali this summer?

Dali is a city worth living in slowly. It has comfortable temperatures, pleasant scenery, and the local flavor of ethnic minorities. No wonder Dali remains a popular tourist destination. Dali has many tourist attractions, including the ancient city of Dali, Cangshan Gate, Cang'er Avenue, Jinyuan Road, Wenbi Road, Haise Park, Xiaoputuo, Wenbi Village, Xingsheng Bridge, Fengyangyi Village, Wuhua Tower in the ancient city of Dali, and more. Visiting just a few of these spots can take several days, so for those who love to travel and live in different places, come to Dali and stay for a month without getting bored. Here are a few selected spots: 1- Erhai Lake: The entire loop around Erhai Lake is 140 kilometers long, divided into the Haidong and Haixi regions. If you have enough time, you can explore it over two days without rushing! ① The Haixi line is an ecological corridor with fresh scenery and relatively close distances between attractions. For the west line, you can rent a bicycle or a public electric bike. When renting a public electric bike, pay attention to the battery level and whether the return location is within the designated area. ② The Haidong line is nestled between mountains and water, offering vast scenery with greater distances between attractions. For the east line, it is recommended to drive or take a bus. Plan your time in advance, buy tickets for each leg on the official account, and remember the drop-off points and the original pick-up points. 2- Haise Park After years of closure, Haise Park has reopened with a comprehensive redesign, featuring beautiful bamboo forests, glass walkways, ancient tree reflections, shimmering water, and the popular 'Couple Tree' on the large lawn outside the park. This is the epitome of Dali's autumn romance.

Well-preserved ancient residences, temples, ancestral halls, and former residences of famous people bear the marks of historical simplicity and vicissitudes. The vegetable market, snack shops, tailor shops, and cheongsam shops are full of a sense of age and local flavor. Modern literary shops dotted along the old streets add new charm to the ancient city's old appearance. Navigation: Longwei Pass Historical and Cultural Block, Xiaguan Town 4- Xizhou Ancient Town: Free admission, open all day. A well-preserved Bai ethnic village. Wearing white Bohemian or ethnic clothing, taking photos here is particularly beautiful. 5- Dali Ancient City: Here you can experience the leisurely life of the ancient city, especially the North Gate Farmers' Market, which you must visit! The morning market offers cheap flowers, wild mushrooms, and fruits. 6- Shuanglang Ancient Town: Facing Erhai Lake, it retains the original appearance of the ancient town. Yang Liping's art space is here, a popular check-in spot. As for food, wild mushroom hot pot is a must-try. The broth is rich, the soup is delicious, and the flavor is intense. Freshly picked wild mushrooms paired with hot pot are tender and refreshing. Additionally, Dai-style hand-grabbed rice is also a must-try! The rice is soft and glutinous, paired with fragrant Dai-style sauce pork, each bite is full of rich Dai flavor.
