Today, we are finally going to start our trip to Dali. When mentioning Yunnan, the first place name that pops out of my mind is Dali. For me, first of all, it has a profound historical background, and more importantly, it is the legendary Nanzhao Dali Kingdom written by Mr. Jin Yong. Of course, there are also its "wind, flowers, snow and moon" (Xiaguan wind, Shangguan flowers, Cangshan snow, Erhai moon), this is Dali.
One of the best ways to explore Dali is to drive along the Erhai Lake. Erhai Lake, shaped like an ear, is a plateau freshwater lake. The water of Erhai Lake is crystal clear and has high transparency. It has been called "the flawless jade among the mountains" since ancient times.
You must take photos while visiting Erhai Lake, but it’s a pity that the sky is not beautiful.
Flower Ranch is very large, but the flowers and plants grown inside are average, and the traces of artificial landscaping are also obvious, but it still cannot stop tourists from staying here.
There are seven dwarfs in the fairy tale, but where did Snow White go?
The world is vast and travelers are in a hurry. May the beauty of this world always exist, and may you and I have a bright future.
Today's ancient town still retains complete Ming and Qing historical and cultural blocks and hundreds of typical Bai traditional Ming and Qing residential courtyards. Ancient and modern, literature and rock, are perfectly integrated in such a small ancient town.
Jade Ji Island is also known as Yuji Island, named after Yuji Temple. There is a well-preserved thousand-year-old Bai fishing village on the island. Every household has running water and grows flowers, which is rich in the national fishing culture.
Go downhill from Yuji'an towards Erhai Lake, pass through a narrow alley, and arrive at the Sun Palace and the Moon Palace . The Moon Palace is not open to the public, and reservation is required to enter the Sun Palace. We can only stop and watch from a distance. From the outside of the Sun Palace, you can imagine the luxury and luxury inside. Some places can leave wonderful memories just by arriving, and that’s enough.
Walking up the zigzag steps from the Sun Palace, there are ruins of the fort. Climbing high and looking into the distance, the line between sea and sky is beautiful.
We walked back the way we came, stopping and taking photos.
On the Erhai Lake, the waves are rippling and the boat is swaying. Imagine living in such beautiful scenery, your mood should be beautiful every day.
Continue along the Erhai Lake and arrive at the resort town of Ideal State with the city of Santorini. Ideal State is a free and open resort town. Because its architectural style is very similar to that of Santorini, and it is located on the shore of Erhai Lake, facing Cangshan Mountain, it has become a must-visit place for many internet celebrities to check in.
Pure blue and white, blue sea, blue sky, beach, castle, you can feel the romance of Santorini in Dali without leaving the country.
Climbing up the stairs to the top, you can experience the scenery of Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake from different perspectives. The clear blue sky, white clouds, and scattered houses come into view one by one.
In the small town of Santorini in the East, there are a large number of hotels and B&Bs staying here, each with its own characteristics and various postures.
The whole path was full of scenery of Erhai Lake, and we entered city (Xiaguan ) . Cross the exotic Xing Grand Bridge. It is said that the hit drama "Siteng" was filmed here. Unfortunately, we couldn’t park and couldn’t take a panoramic photo.
The hotel we stayed in had large floor-to-ceiling windows, so we could have an unobstructed view of the Erhai Lake while lying on the bed. It was great. Take a short rest and go downstairs to find food. We will still go to Dali tomorrow.
