Dali | A must-visit in a lifetime for its renowned 'Wind, Flowers, Snow and Moon'

The 'Wind, Flowers, Snow and Moon' of Dali truly lives up to its reputation. Seeing is believing, and it's simply breathtakingly beautiful! 🥰 🚏Address: Shuanglang Ancient Town 🎫Ticket: Free 🚗Transportation: About 1 hour's drive from Dali Ancient Town 🌺Some say Shuanglang Ancient Town is rather commercialized, but essentially all ancient towns in Dali are somewhat commercialized, after all, everyone needs to make money 💰 haha, but it's undeniable that the side of Shuanglang along the Erhai Lake is still stunning! It's that kind of beauty that takes your breath away at first glance! 🌺If you're starting from Dali Ancient Town, Shuanglang Ancient Town is one of the furthest attractions (around Erhai Lake), so plan your transportation ahead, or just stay overnight there. We took a travel bus back to Dali Ancient Town at 7:30 pm. 🌺After returning to the ancient town, we had a big meal to start the second day of our trip. We tried a place called Dali Ark Fatty's Kitchen, which was quite good, tasting the special wild mushroom soup hotpot and Dai-style hand-grabbed rice, all of which were delicious. 😋There's also a restaurant called Jinshan Bai Nian Ancient Courtyard Restaurant, with a quaint courtyard that's quite distinctive, and the Bai ethnic sour and spicy fish 🐟 and herb lemon chicken are very tasty, worth a try! 🌺It's suggested to go there around 3 pm for the most beautiful scenery and to catch the sunset. Recommended visiting time is about 3 hours. Mainly for taking photos, because the scenery is just too beautiful! As for the commercial street, there's not much to shop, so plan your time accordingly. 🌺The best spot to watch the sunset is near Kui Xing Pavilion. 🌺To save time, we took electric carts in and out, but if you have plenty of time, you can stroll around at your leisure.
