    [Scenery] The living fossils of the ancient tea horse road, time amber is the heart! Stepping across the stone road of Yujin Bridge, the old yellow house of the moor is quiet, and the sound of horseshoes echoes in Sideng Street. The ancient stage wood carving mottled the vicissitudes, and the Tang style murals of Xingjiao Temple hide the mystery. [Fun] Pioneer Book Bureau drink coffee to see Yunjuan Yunshu, and on Friday, the Taobai nationality tie-dye, wild fungus dry goods fireworks rise. Avoiding the hustle and bustle of business is like a paradise, but the traffic is turning to the 18 bends of the mountain road. [Cost-effective] The hidden secret of being awakened by "Going to a Windy place"; Horseshoe prints, old books and starry sky together brew slow time, healing power full! ✨

    Come here, adjust the days to "relaxation mode" 🎞️ This time I went to Yunnan to travel and accidentally found a small treasure place, the ancient city of Lushan, which is simply the "poetry and distance" in my heart. 🚪 The ancient city was built in Minghongwu in 23 years. The chess-board-style street pattern is quite complete, and the antique Ming and Qing buildings are scattered, like a historical picture that is slowly unfolding. Walking on the bluestone road, stroked the carved doors and windows, as if crossing back to ancient times, every corner exudes the charm of the years precipitation, people can't help but immerse them. 🏯 Gongchen Building is an iconic building of the ancient city. When you climb the city building, you can see the beauty of the entire ancient city. The green mountains in the distance are rolling and rolling, and the ancient city is against each other, forming a beautiful landscape painting. The star arch building at night is like the bright pearl of the night, the lights are bright, shining, adding a few romantic colors to the ancient city. 📖 In the Nanxun Museum, I have a deep understanding of the history and culture of Nanxun, the rich cultural relics and detailed introduction in the museum, so that I have a deeper understanding of this once brilliant dynasty, and I really have a full harvest. There is also Mengyang Park, the towering ancient trees, the scattered pavilions, full of poetry, many locals in the leisurely sun, chatting, I also found a corner to sit down, feel this comfort, the whole person relaxed. 🍜 Food is also a highlight of this trip, here is simply a paradise for food! The soup head of the bait silk is delicious, and the bait silk is soft and delicious. Every mouthful is intoxicating; the master of a noodles is a must, and there is only one noodles in a bowl, but it can make people eat with relish; Green bean cakes exude fresh bean fragrance, delicate taste, slightly sweet taste just right. There are also honey dumplings, pickles, these century-old craftsmanship made of food, unique taste, people have endless aftertaste. ✨ Compared with other popular ancient cities, the ancient city of Lushan has fewer people, clean, low commercialization, and affordable prices. Here, there is no hustle and bustle of big cities, only the slow fireworks, as if time has slowed down. 📍 Practical Tips: 1. Wear: The ancient city is suitable for strolling, remember to wear comfortable shoes; here is strong ultraviolet light, you must bring a hat and sunglasses to protect yourself. 2. Best time to play: 3 - May spring blossoms, 9 - November autumn is high, these two time periods to play to avoid the rainy season, will be more comfortable. 3. Accommodation: There are many inns to choose from inside and outside the ancient city. It is recommended to choose an old house with a yard. It is quiet at night and can immersive feel the charm of the ancient city. 4. Transportation: You can choose the high-speed rail, only 22 minutes from Dali Station to Lushan Station, the fare is 22 yuan, after leaving the station, take the bus or walk 2 kilometers to the ancient city; you can also take the shuttle bus at Dali Xiaguan South Passenger Transport Station, about 1 hour by car, more shifts; If you drive by yourself, take the Hangrui Expressway from Dali to 215 National Road, which can be reached directly in about 1.5 hours, and the scenery along the way is also beautiful. If you also want to find a place to relax your soul, then come to the ancient city of Lushan, I believe you will fall in love with it! 💕 #Lushan Ancient City #Travel

    Yunxiang Mountain Chronicle: A Different Kind of Romance Hidden Between Mountains and Sea The wind, Dali's messenger, carries the dampness of Erhai Lake and the crisp air of Cangshan Mountain, leading us to Yunxiang Mountain. This hidden gem, known as "Dali's Little New Zealand," lacks the hustle and bustle of the ancient city, yet weaves a dream of freedom and poetry with its 270° panoramic views of the mountains and sea, its vast meadows, and its pure white buildings perched on cliffs. Climbing the steps, the first thing that catches the eye is the endless expanse of rooftop lawns. The tender green meadows spread out like a velvet carpet, with a solitary cypress tree standing alone at the far end, its branches swaying gently in the wind, as if telling a story of mountains and sea. Some people picnic under the tree, others run against the wind, their skirts and hair fluttering in the sunlight—every snapshot is a scene worthy of a movie. Not far away, the cliffside chapel, with its pure white triangular outline, seems to float between heaven and earth. At four or five in the afternoon, the sunlight filters through the glass curtain wall, casting Tyndall effect light that bathes the entire building in a sacred glow. No wonder it has become a sacred wedding venue for countless couples to capture their happiness. Traveling along the winding S-shaped road, with the mountain road twisting beneath your feet and the azure Erhai Lake and the staggered city skyline in the distance, you almost feel the romantic atmosphere of "La La Land." Reaching the viewing platform, gazing into the distance, the snow-capped peaks of the nineteen peaks of Cangshan Mountain are clearly visible, and Erhai Lake is like a sapphire set in the earth. The bustling atmosphere of the ancient city and the grandeur of nature blend perfectly here. For those seeking a thrill, the non-motorized roller coaster at the Luji Theme Park is an excellent choice. On the 800-meter cliffside track, a 38-second high-speed plunge sends the wind whistling in your ears, while the most breathtaking mountain and water scenery flashes by. After skiing down to the foot of the mountain, take the cable car back to the summit. Overlooking the vast expanse of reeds and low shrubs, the cable car's cables, like harp strings, play a lively melody amidst the verdant forest. The Misty Mountain Cafe at the summit is a perfect place to unwind. Order a cup of Yunnan small-bean coffee and a slice of rose-flavored milk fan cake, sit on the third-floor observation deck, and let the mountain breeze caress your face. The ingeniously designed glass railings create a magical "floating Erhai Lake" effect when photographed from a low angle, perfectly capturing the relaxed vacation atmosphere. As sunset approaches, the sky gradually turns orange, and the evening glow gilds the clouds. The benches on the observation deck are filled with people chasing the light. As the last rays of sunlight sink into Cangshan Mountain, the city lights gradually illuminate, intertwining with the starlight over Erhai Lake, adding a touch of tranquility and romance to the night view of Misty Mountain. As we descended the mountain, looking back at this small town built into the hillside, the Bai ethnic minority houses with their blue tiles and white walls cascaded down the slope, perfectly blending the traditional "three courtyards and one screen wall" layout with modern design, making the buildings seem to have grown out of nature. Here, there is no deliberate embellishment, only a harmonious coexistence of nature and humanity, possessing both the vastness of New Zealand's wilderness and the unique romantic charm of Dali. The beauty of Yunxiang Mountain extends beyond the immediate scenery.

    They all say "original ecological ancient town", but in fact, this is the real original ecology. The ancient town is under development, with supporting infrastructure, accommodation, eating and parking are very convenient, the local houses are completely unique to the Bai nationality, three squares, one photo wall and four-in-five patios, the light door is exquisite and abnormal, plus Jianchuan is famous for wood carvings, each window door eaves are super beautiful, There are many old buildings, and there are "garden courtyards" and "historical buildings" hanging at the door. As long as you don't disturb your home, you can go in and see the yard. The local area attaches great importance to the style of literature. There are Jinshi at the door of the Ming and Qing generations. And whether the high-door large household or the poor small family, there is a link at the door of the family, the household has hand-painted annual paintings, catch up with the white matter, and the white connection mourning, is a real sense of ancient meaning. Compared with other ancient towns, the commercialization here is extremely low, and less than one-third of the shops open on a street. The "Jiama Temple Station" in the net red photo is in the ancient city. It is an inn, but I don't know why it is closed. It is very beautiful to take pictures and punch in. Overall, this is not a red place, it is a real ancient town, worth a visit.

    Here is a sense of the after-sight tour of the Xingsheng Bridge: The beauty of the building is shocking. At first sight of the Xingsheng Bridge, it was attracted by its majestic splendor. The bridge is white as snow, and the 235-meter-long bridge spans the Xiqiao River. The five-span arch structure is like a dragon flying above the lake. The four towers and two arch bridges are perfectly combined, both elegant and romantic European architecture, and also incorporate the carved flowers and totems of Bai nationality characteristics. Closer to take a closer look, the pier imitates the three towers of Chongsheng Temple, and the bridge rail is inlaid with auspicious golden-winged Dapeng bird relief, the details show the heritage of Bai civilization. The natural scenery is picturesque and strolling on the Xingsheng Bridge, as if in a natural picture. The mountains of Cangshan in the distance stand tall, and the snow on the top of the mountain shines in the sun, like a silver-clad fairy. The Bohai Sea nearby is shining, the lake is crystal clear, and the breeze blows, and the layers are rippling. The sky is blue like a gem, and the white clouds float in the air like marshmallows, and the bridge and lake are against each other, forming a beautiful picture. The humanistic atmosphere is strong and warm. The Xingsheng Bridge is not only a building, but also a part of the life of Dali people. Here you can see locals strolling, chatting, fishing, and children playing by the bridge, full of life. In winter, Siberian red-billed lizards will come here for the winter, they fly on the lake, foraging, and interacting intimately with tourists, forming a unique landscape, but also adding a vitality and vitality to the bridge. The Xingsheng Bridge is a very popular online celebrity check-in point, whether you are a professional photographer or an ordinary tourist, you can take satisfactory photos here. In the early morning or evening, soft light is spilled on the bridge, and a layer of gold gauze is covered in the bridge. At this time, the light effect is excellent. You can stand on the bridge and take personal photos or family photos with the background of Cangshan and Bohai Sea. You can also find angles under the bridge, use railings and seats to take the bridge as a vision, and shoot a large film with European style.

    The annual March Street is attended by people from all directions. People of all ethnic groups sing together, race horses, sing songs and do business. Due to the need for epidemic prevention and control, Dali's traditional March Street has been suspended for three years. Only a few sparse stalls, a few handicraft shops, tea shops and herbal medicine shops are still in operation.

    The Bai-style Dali Imperial Garden has unique architecture and scenery. The Cuihua Tower, which is backed by Cangshan Mountain, is majestic, and the wooden Yinhe Bridge is even more amazing! It is adjacent to the ancient city, but there are few tourists except for a few groups taking wedding photos... The scenery is beautiful, there are few people, it's awesome!
