Preface:

Days are as light as leaves,

Life is like a winding wind,

From the moment we landed,

It is worth blessing.

I looked out of the window. The dark clouds had not yet dissipated, the sun had just penetrated the clouds, a girl's long dress was walking through the street, the wind rolled up fallen leaves, and the autumn was cool like water.

How much love cannot compete with time, and how much warmth loses to reality. After so many years, it has become less important where I go all the way west, but I will still be loyal to my heart and run towards my ideals and you with stars and moons.

One day, you will bid farewell to the bright neon lights and congested roads in the city, and go to Dali to experience the intoxicating breeze beside the Erhai Lake and the refreshing first snow between the Cangshan Mountains.

Location and Transportation: The hotel is located at No. 9 Boai Road, Dali Ancient City, Dali City, Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture. It is 28 kilometers away from Dali Huangcaoba Airport and 17 kilometers away from Dali Station. The hotel is backed by Cangshan Mountain, bordered by Boai Road in the east, and Nancheng Gate in the west. It is only a 5-minute walk from Wumiao, Honglongjing, Renmin Road and Foreign Street.

Decoration style: Dali THE ONE Ancient City No. 1 Courtyard is a unique courtyard-style resort hotel that combines traditional Bai folk houses with Hui style architecture. It has blue tiles and white walls, three squares and one illuminated wall, and four in five courtyards. The typical characteristics of these Bai folk houses are here. You can see it. Stepping on the blue stone pavement in the alley of the hotel, you can see that the maple leaves are like fire, the tree shadows are dancing, and the light and shadow are mottled. With the passage of time, they transform into thousands of forms, carrying all things and integrating nature.

Inadvertently, a suspected British short named "Duoduo" will disturb your daydream for a moment. What bad thoughts can the kitten have? Let it be, it is just a little arrogant but lives at ease.

The simple beauty of the building, the Chinese artistic conception of the courtyard, the authentic Yunnan cuisine, and the considerate housekeeper service, these hospitality will hit the heart of every guest. The journey of self-cultivation in seclusion, return to heart, and manifest behavior begins here.

Room view: Whether you stay in the Tingfeng Big Bed Room, Muyun Room or Fengjing Courtyard, you may fall in love with it the moment you open the curtains. This season is just right, avoid the surging crowds during the winter and summer vacations, and look at Cangshan from afar. It seems like the layers of forests are dyed, and the large white clouds are slowly flowing in the blue sky, as if within reach.

From Borghese's toiletries to Duravit's wall-mounted hidden tank toilets, low-key and luxurious facilities are just for guests to stay comfortably. For the rest, there is no need to show anything or show more. People are born in the hustle and bustle and yearn for freedom. They like Dali. Who is not because of this loneliness like idle clouds and wild cranes?

City travel: The ancient city of Dali has been Yunnan's political, economic and cultural center for more than 500 years in the Tang and Song Dynasties. There are many cultural relics and historic sites in the ancient city, the city pattern is basically well preserved, and important historical sites are clearly recognizable.

In addition to the heavyweight cultural relics protection units such as the Three Towers of Chongsheng Temple, the Taihe City Ruins (including Nanzhao Dehua Stele), the Dali City Museum (Du Wenxiu Shuaifu), the former site of Yunnan Prefectural Mansion, the Hongsheng Temple Tower, and the Dali Catholic Church, there are also the following architectural relics that carry Dali's history and culture.

Ancient City Building: Literature Building, Wuhua Building, Nancheng Building, North Gate Tower. Among them, the south tower is called Shuanghe Tower, also known as Chengen Tower. It is the first of the four gates of the ancient city. It was built in the 15th year of Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty (AD 1382). It is the oldest and majestic building in the ancient city and the symbol and symbol of the ancient city of Dali. The ancient city wall is about 1500 meters long, 6 meters high and 12 meters thick on all four sides. The word "Dali" on the city gate was personally mentioned by Guo Moruo when he visited Dali in 1961."Dali" is the national name, which means "governing Dali greatly, enriching the country and rejuvenating the country".

Ancient Academy: Xiyun Academy, Dali Prefecture Examination Institute.

Ancient temples: Catholic Church, Nanmen Mosque, Confucian Temple, Martial Temple.

The ancient city of Dali has four gate towers and four corner towers. There are four city gates on all sides of the city wall, namely Erhai Gate (also known as Tonghai Gate) at the east gate, Shuanghe Gate at the south gate (also known as Chengen Gate), Cangshan Gate at the west gate, and Santa Gate at the north gate (also known as Anyuan Gate). The city maintains a typical checkerboard structure, with three streets in the north and south, and six streets in the east and west. It is known as the "Nine Streets and Eighteen Alleys". The center of the city is closer to the west, and the north-south axis is not centered, forming an urban layout in which the west is more important than the east. The north and south gates are symmetrical, while the east and west gates are offset, which adopts the principle of "no justice should be taken in the east, west, north and south" in Bai architecture.

Fuxing Road, which is best known to tourists, is the main road and the most prosperous street in the ancient city of Dali. It connects the South Gate and the North Gate. It has a total length of 1500 meters. The road surface is made of hemp stone and is the longest main road in the north and south direction of the ancient city. The shops on both sides of Fuxing Road maintain the architectural style of the Minqing Dynasty. Foreign Street, formerly known as "Guguo Road", is paved with bluestone slabs, and the most prosperous one is the middle section. The main landscape of Honglongjing River runs from west to east, divided into upper and lower sections with Boai Road as the boundary. The buildings along the street feature antique Bai folk houses.

Therefore, the ancient city of Dali is a treasure city where you can walk around at will and meet history.

Catering section: When I lived in No. 1 Courtyard of THE ONE Ancient City in Dali, almost all the meals were enjoyed at Tingfeng Restaurant. with
Connected to Tingfeng Restaurant is Muxue Bar. It is the norm in the world to be indifferent to the world, listen to the wind and snow, and be as calm as water. Only by doing things without being alarmed can you move steadily and far.

There is a scientific breakfast that emphasizes nutrition and collocation, as well as authentic Bai-style home-cooked dishes.

Sleep until you wake up naturally. After waking up, eat a bowl at Tingfeng Restaurant? Shredded meat or rice noodles, as well as porridge, steamed buns, steamed buns, eggs, corn, sweet potatoes, fried eggs, stir-fried vegetables and seasonal fruits. You must drink a cup of Dali's local yogurt. Business hours: 0800-1030.

Recommended dishes:

Carved plum ribs: Dali specialty carved plum is blended with fried ribs that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It is sweet and sour. Occasionally, you can also eat plum meat, which is very delicious.

Braised chicken: Using local local chicken as an ingredient, the meat is solid and tender. I have to say that braising is really a cooking method that will make the ingredients very delicious.

Hot and sour carp: The carp from Erhai Lake is extremely delicious. Coupled with homemade chutney, the taste buds are greatly satisfied.

Scrambled pork and crispy pork: Both are Yunnan specialties. Different practices test the chef's control of the heat. The saute pork is smooth and smooth, and the crispy pork is crispy.

Haicai Tang: A wild vegetable growing in the Erhai Lake, famous for its "watery poplar flowers". The soup tastes silky and mellow.

There is a courtyard in the hotel surrounded by Fendai and chaos grass. Coffee Cafe is located in this dream garden with a peaceful environment. Choose a cup of espresso or American coffee, and then brew a pot of aged Pu 'er or three or two bottles of Dali beer. Sit in the courtyard, let the time fly by, looking at the clouds rolling and relaxing, and watching the flowers bloom and fall.

The nearby pool reflects the distant pavilion, and the white drapery fluttered in the wind. At sunset, the Fandai chaos grass is shrouded in the golden sunset. Is this wild beauty something you find across thousands of rivers and mountains?

Conclusion:

If you choose not to speak, you will have the strength to leave blank,

Only by integrating laughter can you protect yourself.

The crescent moon comes for no one,

All round and missing are doomed.

People in the wind are calm,

The crowd gathered and dispersed like a drizzle,

I'm still here.
