    "A very beautiful and peaceful place in Yunnan Shaxi❤️ friendly people and a lot of good food"
    Jianchuan.Shaxi Ancient Town
    25km from downtown
    Highlights: Shaxi Ancient Town was once an important station on the ancient tea-horse road. Now Shaxi is quieter and simpler, and it also better preserves the style of the tea-horse town. Xingjiao Temple is a major attraction of Shaxi. It is the only remaining Baidu “Atoli” Buddhist temple in the Ming Dynasty. The murals and sculptures inside are worth savoring. Walking on the street slowly enjoys the ancient city of Dali. Quiet and comfortable.

    "If I tell you that Shibao Mountain is coming to Dali to climb this mountain, you may be surprised, this mountain may not have been heard. But if I tell you Shaxi Ancient Town, you may know that because with the popularity of TV dramas, Shaxi has become an Internet celebrity attraction. In fact, not far from the ancient town of Shaxi, there is also a national treasure-level mountain worth seeing. That is, Shibao Mountain 🚉 Traffic Raiders: traditional people will tell you that you can drive or video cars to the entrance of the scenic spot, but if you like to travel poor, There are two ways to enter Shibao Mountain 1. The car from Jianchuan to Shaxi will pass by the intersection of Shibao Mountain. If you give the driver 5~10 yuan, he will send you to the entrance of the scenic spot. 2. Another way is to walk into the scenic spot from the back mountain of Shibao Mountain. If you are lucky, you can also avoid tickets. 👍 The most recommended: Shibao Mountain is really large in size, and it can be divided into three attractions, namely Baoxiang Temple, Shizhong Temple and Shadeng Temple. Most people will only visit the first two attractions and return by car. If you choose to hike like me, you must not miss the last attraction, because the last attraction is a collection of grottoes and natural landscapes. 📝 Note tips: 1. The area of the scenic spot is really quite large. It is recommended that if people with poor physical strength, they still buy a scenic car at the door and sit and visit the first two attractions. 2. If you choose to walk from the main entrance to enter, the road between the main entrance and Baoxiang Temple is not too far. It is only more slopes, even if you go to the bottom of Baoxiang Temple, you need to climb a mountain road to see it. 3. After getting off Baoxiang Temple, there is actually a small road across the road to the next attraction, but because many people don't know, and few people take this road basically deserted, you need to ask the staff of the scenic spot to find it. 4. Although the road from Shizhong Temple to Shadengyu is a small road, it is mainly the following slopes, and it is condescending. If you encounter a sunny day, you can get out beautiful photos. After going down the mountain, walk 3~4 kilometers, which is the ancient town of Shaxi that everyone likes."
    Jianchuan
    18.3km from downtown
    Highlights: Shibao Mountain is located in Jianchuan County, in northern Dali Prefecture. It has features typical of Danxia. The spherical stones, weathered by erosion, are unique in shapes and forms, with huge disparities in height. There are various sights on the moubntain, including the Shizhongshan Grottoes, Baoxiang Temple and Jinding Temple, and other ruins. The grottoes and cliff statues are especially famous. The grottoes are of comparable fame as the cliff statues of Dunhuang, leading to the saying "there is Dunhuang in the North, and Jianchuan in the South."
