Dali | Our poetry and distant places are just their daily life. The nightlife in the ancient city of Dali has a unique charm. In the evening, strolling in the ancient city is like traveling to the Kingdom of Dali. Sometimes, I really envy the people here, because the poetry and distant places we yearn for are just their daily life: the snow of Cangshan, the moon of Erhai, the flowers of Shangguan, the wind of Xiaguan, all the worldly noises can be forgotten.

Visit other places to see the world's wonders--Dali Cangshan Mountain has ink paintings that last a thousand autumns, Erhai Lake has stringless zithers that resonate through eternity. Twenty years later, revisiting Dali, Cangshan and Erhai remain as they were back then. Many people say that the ancient city of Dali has become too commercialized and has lost its charm. In fact, wherever there are more tourists, it's all the same. Wander through the small alleys of the ancient city, avoid the crowds, and feel its worldly atmosphere, feel the depth of its historical and cultural heritage. Travel is essentially going from a place where you are tired of to a place where others are tired of. Recommended cultural attractions: The Confucian temple in the ancient city of Dali, the Dali Catholic Church, and in Xizhou ancient town, the Corner Tower, Yan's Mansion, the Inscribed Archway, the Xizhou ancient town wheat waves, and so on
