Dali: The ultimate alternative to "Little Kamakura"

The sky in Dali is purely blue, and the clouds are like carefully placed cotton candy, floating randomly. Every inch of blue can reach people's hearts, making people willing to be intoxicated in this clear water~ ⛺ [Must-see spots]: 1. Erhai Lake ❤️ Recommended activities Rent a convertible car and drive along the lake, stopping as you wish to feel the scenery of Erhai Lake. You can also choose to take a cruise to go deeper into Erhai Lake, get in close contact with this clear lake water, and appreciate the beauty of Cangshan Erhai Lake from a waterside perspective. 😫 Activities to avoid It is not recommended to engage in dangerous water sports in the waters of Erhai Lake for the sake of excitement, such as rowing without professional guidance, etc. The water conditions in Erhai Lake are complicated and accidents are prone to occur. It is not recommended to choose some irregular car rental companies to rent a car around Erhai Lake without prior understanding, you may encounter vehicle failures, being ripped off for deposits, and other problems. 2. Dali Ancient City ❤️ Recommended activities Walk through the stone streets of the ancient city, touch the ancient city walls, and feel the traces of time. 😫 Activities to avoid Pay attention to prices when buying goods, especially some souvenirs. You can bargain appropriately to avoid being ripped off. 3. Xizhou Ancient Town ❤️ Recommended activities Take a walk in the rice fields around the ancient town. It is full of green in spring and summer, and golden in autumn and winter. Taking pictures here is very photogenic. Be sure to try Xizhou Baba, which has sweet and savory flavors. The outer skin is crispy, and the inner filling is soft and glutinous, with a rich aroma. 4. Cangshan Mountain ❤️ Recommended activities Take the cable car up the mountain, such as the Gantong cableway or Ximatan cableway, to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Cangshan Mountain at different altitudes. 😫 Activities to avoid Cangshan Mountain has complex terrain and changeable weather. Do not enter the mountain for hiking on your own on rainy or foggy days, as it is extremely easy to get lost or encounter danger. 🧡 [Tips]: For trips with many days and people, it is recommended to choose a customized tour. You don't need to make your own strategies to book air tickets and tickets. The customizer designs an exclusive itinerary and provides butler service throughout the whole trip.
