Where do you want to go most after autumn?

Some time ago, I blotted the copy of a certain Short Video and wanted to drink my first cup of milk tea after autumn. I wanted to take my first trip after autumn and shoot my first scenery after autumn.

Some time ago, a friend set off from Xiamen to travel to Yunnan alone. One of the stops was Dali and sent us many pictures of her travel. What moved me most was the tranquility of Erhai Lake, the simplicity of the ancient city, and the beauty of Cangshan Mountain.

The beauty of Yunnan is the slowness of life and the slowness of time

If Lijiang is a city of romantic encounters

Then Dali is the capital of healing

The breeze blows across the blue sky and white clouds

Stroll on the stone road of the ancient city

The water is also flowing quietly

Nothing seems important here

Everything is slowly healing

Feel the flow of history in the wind and snow moon

Itinerary: Transportation: Kunming-Dali (the high-speed train will arrive in about 2 hours)

Accommodation: Dali Ancient City B & B (I will wait for you in Dali·Ark Muzhai)

Cuisine: Wild mushroom hot pot, preserved pork ribs hot pot, local chicken rice noodles, Xizhou cake, roasted milk fan, plum

Attractions: Dali Ancient City Butterfly Spring Chongsheng Three Pagoda Temple Erhai

Tips: 1. If you take a bus or train from Kunming-Dali, you need to note that Dali here is not the ancient city of Dali, but Xiaguan, the seat of the Dali Prefecture Government. You can take another 13 kilometers from Xiaguan to reach the ancient city of Dali.

 2. The altitude of Dali is not high, with an average of about 1700 meters. It is warm and comfortable when the wind is sunny, but the temperature drops sharply when it rains, so whenever you travel to Dali, you must bring one or two pieces of warm clothing.

Living in Dali: Dali B & B·I will wait for you in Dali·Ark Muzhai

We carpooled from the train station to the ancient city of Dali, and the driver took us to Renmin Road. The accommodation we booked was on Renmin Road and we arrived in less than ten minutes on foot (I will wait for you in Dali·Ark Muzhai).

The inn we booked is on the lower section of Renmin Road, which is very convenient for eating, drinking and visiting the ancient city. It is also suitable if you drive yourself. The B & B has its own parking lot. There is no noise as foreign street and no double corridor journey. It is a suitable place to travel. The quietness of the morning and the excitement of the night form a strong contrast. It seems to be the common feature of Dali, Lijiang. Holding a favorite book, tasting a pot of tea, sitting in a simple and luxurious inn, or enjoying flowers in the courtyard, Let you relax your whole body and mind, and an exclusive elegance comes.

The rooms in the B & B are also bright and clean, with the smell of sunshine. Although simplicity is the overall style, simplicity is not simple. The soft lighting, the bathtub next to the window, you can take a bath while closing your eyes and enjoying the sun, alleviating the fatigue of your life., the discord of life no longer disturbs your mood.

For Dali, I have my own way of playing. In the evening, I sit in the rooftop garden of the B & B and watch the sunset glow red the sky red, and watch the stars and moon light up the night sky. I have never seen a scenery that fascinates me like the sky in Yunnan.

Eat in Dali: Wild mushroom hot pot·I will wait for you in Dali·Ark Fat Kitchen

Of course, you have to check in for dinner at Dali's Internet celebrity restaurant: I will wait for you in Dali·Ark Fat Kitchen. But it's best to book in advance, otherwise there will be a long line at the door one evening. I first placed a good order on the food platform, then contacted the merchants to reserve a place, and then went to eat directly after circling the Erhai Lake.

The restaurant is located next to Renmin Road in the ancient city of Dali, on the main street. It is very easy to find. The restaurant does not have the high-profile luxury you imagine, but is simple, clean, and very comfortable. It is mainly two-story, the first and second floors. It is simple and generous.

Wild fungi are nature's most beautiful gift to Yunnan. Even gourmets who have tasted countless delicacies cannot escape its charm. In the food worldview of Yunnan locals, only wild ones can be called "fungi". In their eyes, those artificially cultivated fungi can only be called mushrooms. The boss told me that they collectively refer to all wild fungi as Jie 'er (pronounced as "Jie' er"). The local chicken is made in soup, and then the fungi are added to stew. The golden chicken oil makes the aroma of the fungi disperse better, and the chicken that absorbs the mushroom soup is also more delicious. For matsutake,"China on the Bite of Tongue" also introduced this way to eat it. Put the butter in the pan and heat it to melt, then add the matsutake slices and fry it until it is slightly golden. Wait until the juice makes a sound and then put it into the mouth. It will be the best taste in the world. You can also try the way to eat matsutake sashimi in the Fat Kitchen of Ark, which I am waiting for you in Dali. This eating method has high requirements on the ingredients themselves and must ensure absolute freshness.

Playing in Dali:

(1) If you come to Dali, go to Tianlong Babu Film and Television City. Walking through the ancient customs, you can see Ah Zhu written by Jin Yong, who is willing to die for love and family affection, or the frank and arrogant love Ah Zi. He is still the heroic, brave and masculine Xiao Feng. Then, ride the little electric donkey and go around the Erhai Lake. The sky here is very blue, the light is very good, and it is cloudless blue. Looking at the snack vendors on Erhai Road, the most soothing thing is the fireworks on earth. Buy a few skewers of small fish and shrimp, and simple cooking is enough.

(2) If you come to Dali, go for a walk on the stone road of the ancient city. Stroll around the ancient city, chat with locals, and experience the quiet and leisurely slow-paced life. Then walk the streets and alleys to find famous Dali delicacies such as Nuodeng ham, Xizhou cake, fried milk fan, fried milk cake, and baked bait nuggets, and enjoy them. In the ancient city, there are various shops specializing in marble products, tie-dyeing, straw weaving and other famous and special products, as well as Bai restaurants with full flavor. Walking to the door of the tavern, I listened to the hoarse voice singing "Go to Dali" and Jin Hua singing "Butterfly Spring" briskly.

(3) If you come to Dali, go to the Third Pagoda of Chongsheng Temple. The three pagodas of Chongsheng Temple were built during the period of Nanzhao King Quan Fengyou. When Xu Xiake arrived in Dali, he still saw "three pagodas standing in front of Chongsheng Temple, with tall pines towering into the sky on all sides. Entering from the mountain gate to the west, there is a bell tower and three towers facing each other, which are extremely majestic."Behind the building is the main hall, and behind the main hall is the" Rain Pearl Guanyin Hall. It is a statue made of bronze and is three feet high "(" Xu Xiake's Travels·Diary of a Travel to Yunnan 8 "). It provides valuable data for studying the history, religion and culture of the Nanzhao and Dali periods.

(4) If you come to Dali, go to Butterfly Spring. Walking through Butterfly Spring, which has beautiful scenery and clear springs, come and go for a date with a rare spectacle in the world (Butterfly Festival). Every year, when the Butterfly Festival comes, thousands of butterflies fly from all directions and fly around the spring. They are colorful and famous at home and abroad. Taking a look at the classic film "Five Golden Flowers" about Bai people's life, I even sigh at the strange landscape of Butterfly Spring.

(5) Meet the most beautiful scenery and encounter the most romantic time. The scenery of the Erhai Lake is like the imprint of time. The Erhai Lake can always give people a comfortable mood and make them forget their troubles for a short time. It is a good place to meditate. The Erhai Lake surrounds the entire Dali. The best place to appreciate the Erhai Lake is at the Dali Double Corridor. The best time is in the afternoon or in the sunset. In the evening, you can appreciate the most beautiful Erhai Lake. Along the road along the Erhai Lake, take photos to leave the most beautiful moments, find an empty and cool tree to enjoy the shade, blow the sea breeze, listen to the water of the Erhai Lake, and look at the rippling scenery on the lake in the distance. It is heart-to-heart., this is probably what Dali's soft time looks like!

I sang the ballad my mother sang

Peony is embroidered on the golden plaque

I hummed the tune my father had hummed

Cattle and sheep are grazing on the green grassland

Surrounded by butterflies flapping their silver wings

Recall the distant ancient time

Singing freedom and courage

Keep singing

I want to stay in this city

Probably because of the warm and comfortable B & B

Probably because of the wild mushroom hot pot that warms the stomach

Probably the freedom to go west to Dali

Probably the blue sky escaped here from the tall city

Probably the laziness of listening to the song of birds in the wind and snow
