    I'd previously tried Sentosa Island in Singapore, and since I was in Dali this time and there was a go-kart racing event, I decided to check it out. They're two different experiences; Singapore focuses on thrills and excitement, while Dali's appeal lies in its beautiful scenery. Therefore, they can't be compared directly. However, Yunxiang Mountain truly offers unparalleled views. The entrance overlooking Erhai Lake and Cangshan Mountain, shrouded in mist, is like a fairyland. It seems like the best spot to watch the sunset, but unfortunately, the timing wasn't right, and I missed it. In summary, Yunxiang Mountain is a scenic spot that Dali has developed in the last two years, suitable for camping, watching the sunset, and go-karting. I hope it won't be overly commercialized and ruin this beautiful place.

    The ancient city of Dali is beautiful and beautiful. The heritage of the ancient city of the millennium: Tang Jianming City still exists, strolling on Qingshiban Street, visiting the ancient walls of the city building, soaking the legacy of Nanxun. Cangwu scenery picture: leaning on Cangshan Mountain, Linyi Sea, riding to watch the sunrise, taking the ropeway to enjoy the wind, flowers and snow. Must visit cultural landmarks: Chongsheng Temple three towers are squash, foreigner street to find milk fans, sour soup fish, feel the tip of the tongue Yunnan. Fresh folk experience: March Street to catch a rally, Bai song and dance, tie-dye silverware, immerse in the national customs. Best B&B for rest: Recommended to stay at the "Dingdaryu Lu Villa B&B" next to the ancient city! Modern design, five-star service, walking distance to the core area, intimate service to accompany you leisurely vacation.

    For me, you can skip the insides of the temples and pay more attention to the surrounding scenery and Pagodas. Go early to avoid the crowd. I was there at 0820 am hardly any crowds. They start coming around 0900 am. Take the pictures you want near the pagoda then take the buggy up the top. Then take the steps down to the bottom. It makes a huge difference

    I went to Dali Bohai Sea, and it really felt like I broke into a fairyland on earth! Cycling along the lake, the wind blows, it is called a comfortable, the lake is sparkling, like a sprinkling of broken gold. Cangshan Mountain in the distance is continuous, and it is matched with Bohai Sea. No matter how you shoot it, you can shoot it. Passing by the village, you can see the leisurely life of the locals, full of fireworks. Staying there, all the troubles were thrown out of the cloud, it was really healing, I can stay here for a lifetime!

    Jizu Mountain is a famous Buddhist holy site with beautiful scenery and many pilgrims. The entrance fee is reasonable, but the cable car and shuttle bus within the scenic area are expensive, and have even increased in price since then, making it not very cost-effective.

    [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! ✨
