ancient city of Dali is located at the foot of the beautiful Cangshan Mountain and is the capital of the ancient Nanzhao and Dali states. This is a suitable place to live, the local pace of life is very slow, the sun is shining, the temperature is also very suitable, it is very comfortable to visit the small shops in the ancient city and see the ancient buildings. The streets in the city have a typical checkerboard layout and are the core area of Dali's tourism.

Dali in autumn and winter is particularly beautiful, at the end of the year to Dali to enjoy the scenery of Cang'er, not only can you see the red-billed gulls from Siberia, but also there is no crowd of people during the Spring Festival, where you can raise flowers and grass, play with cats and dogs, visit small shops, go to bars, truly enjoy the slow life of literature and art, and feel the folk customs are also the most suitable.

(This travelogue was filmed in October, so there are no seagulls, so if you travel in winter, you can see good friends from Siberia!) )

When you arrive in the ancient city of Dali, you must go to Foreigner Street to check in~ Visit various small shops along the way, you can see a lot of favorite things, I like to eat, so I buy some snacks, I recommend a roasted milk fan at the corner of Foreigner Street, the taste is very authentic, 5 yuan can eat memories, and the flower cake is really sweet to the heart~

Dali Ancient City

Many people came to the ancient city of Dali in a hurry and did not feel her true charm. I believe that many people come to the ancient city of Dali , they are rushing to Foreigner Street, Renmin Road, Honglongjing and Fuxing Road Pedestrian Street, these streets and alleys marked with literary and artistic signs, I also like the ancient city of Dali, different ages, different circumstances have different opinions, I like a free and leisurely life, a relaxed lifestyle is our attitude
