[2025 Dali Stay] Travel Guide for Nymph Resort (Updated Feb)

I've been to Dali many times and stayed in many places in Shuanglang. This time I stayed in a new and niche ancient town - Shuanglang. The location is really friendly, just 100 meters from the north entrance of Shuanglang Ancient Town. The ancient town is paved with stone slabs, which is fine for walking, but it's really uncomfortable to walk with luggage. Fortunately, the butler came to pick us up. The layout of the inn has some characteristics of the Bai nationality's three rooms and one wall, but it also combines many Han styles. There are four floors, and there is a coffee shop on the first floor. Most of them are sea view rooms, and the Erhai Sea is only 0.5 meters away from the room balcony. Such a good location and conditions, including breakfast and afternoon tea, the key price is not very expensive, really too moved!!! The service here is also very good. Every time I pass by, the front desk lady will say hello. When I have breakfast, the lady will also say hello. The key is that I want to go to the next stop. The front desk brother also recommended me a very cost-effective business car. Friends who come to Shuanglang must not miss this inn

The white village town leaning against Erhai Lake, the rainbow road leading to the sea, the Italian-style garden secret place, it really heals you deeply, as if you've stepped into a world of oil paintings. 📷 Sharing a few of my favorite check-in areas in Wenvi Village 📍Rainbow Road Actually, there's no need to take photos in the middle of the road, the plants on both sides of the road are also very photogenic. 📍Back Mountain Enter the village and follow the path to the top of the mountain, the view here is very good, directly overlooking the Cangshan Mountains, Erhai Lake, and part of the ancient city of Dali opposite. 📍Muxinbao Cliff Secret Estate Right next to the Rainbow Road, I really love this place~ Next to the gate staircase is a Southern French garden, flowers and plants embellish the castle, very fairy-tale like. Bali-style clear water pool, as if you are in a tropical rainforest, full of vacation vibes. Circular sea view window, not in the room!

I've had this guesthouse in my favorites for so long Every time I tried to book in advance, it was fully booked This time I finally got to stay as I wished ...

The rooms don't even need mentioning Scenery everywhere, truly realizing the dream of sleeping by the Erhai lake and watching the sea ... Guesthouse name: Ningfu Seaside Inn Address: Group 8, Shuanglang Village, Shuanglang Town ...

The redwood forest at Longkan Pier is no longer red. Panxi Village's S Bay is crowded with people, making it almost impossible to take photos without people. Dali Santorini has lost its appeal to me. How should we cycle around Erhai Lake in Dali during winter? For someone who has been longing for Yunnan, I have made at least 40 round trips to Dali in the past 3 years. Tell you how to do a one-day tour of Erhai Lake during peak season. How to get to a place with few people, beautiful scenery, and great photo opportunities? Implementing staggered visits to Erhai Lake. ~ At 7:40 in the morning, go to Huanhai West Road near Xizhou Ancient Town to watch a sunrise.
