Dali is an ideal habitat for me. This is my first trip to Dali, a romantic city. The wish I had a year ago has come true today, and I have finally come to Dali, the city I have been thinking about day and night. When it was time for me to schedule the holiday that year, I chose to go to Dali, book tickets and pack my luggage in one go without hesitation.

Trip planning:

Day1: Airplane-Hotel

Day2: Xizhou Ancient Town-Three Towers Reflection Park

Day3: Erhai Lake-Cangshan

Day4: Dali Shanshui Room-Winter Cherry Blossom-Return Trip

The beautiful scenery of Dali that I used to visit on my mobile phone now finally emerges in front of me. Looking at the blue sky and the pedestrians coming and going, I am truly convinced that I have come to this picturesque city. In my opinion, Dali is beautiful all year round. There are flowers in spring, clouds in summer, colors in autumn, and snow in winter. It is synonymous with all beauty.

Before coming here, I made a reservation online for the hotel-Beautiful Meet·Mengdiezhuang Hotel. I admit that I was attracted by its name. In the past, there were Zhuang and Zhou Mengdiezhuang, and I was in a state of freedom and freedom. Now I have an appointment with Mengdiezhuang. Enjoy a leisurely little time. Facts proved that my choice was correct. As soon as the plane landed, I walked out of the airport and saw the hotel housekeeper picking me up in a car. The journey from the airport to the hotel was about an hour.

The hotel is located at the north gate of Dali Ancient City, overlooking the entire Cangshan Mountain and the Erhai Lake Lake. The location of the hotel is excellent. It takes about 3 minutes to walk to the ancient city of Dali. It is rounded out and you will be right out of the door. The hotel is also close to nearby attractions, and it takes about a 5-minute walk to the Three Towers of Chongsheng Temple.

After arriving, the exterior of the hotel and the surrounding environment were revealed to you. This is a hotel surrounded by an organic farm, Su Ark Manor. Looking from a distance, you can see large areas of green. In the distance, there are Cangshan surrounded by clouds and mist and the quietly standing Three Towers of Chongsheng Temple. It is really a hotel that can be said to be quiet in the hustle and bustle.

At the entrance is a path full of ceremonies. There is also a wooden plaque at the entrance of the path, which says "Mengdie Village". I heard that it was written by Teacher Nan Huaijin himself. As soon as you enter, you will find the hotel lobby. The marble floor is low-key yet has a texture. The young lady at the front desk helped me with the check-in procedures, and the personal housekeeper helped me put my luggage away, and then communicated with me about the itinerary for the past three days in detail. This is the special service of the Beautiful Meet Mengdiezhuang Hotel: one room, one car and one housekeeper. Each room is equipped with a personal housekeeper and a special car. The special car can be used for free within a radius of 30 kilometers of the hotel. At the same time, the hotel also provides me with personalized customized services and provides me with the selection and arrangement of tourist routes based on needs. It is very user-friendly.

The environment of the hotel is very good, with retro blue bricks and white walls everywhere. Walking on the path and looking at the surrounding green grass and buildings, it really has a bit of elegance from the Republic of China. Walking by the pool, the water surface suddenly rippled and suddenly calm. Holding up an oil-paper umbrella and paired with a specially worn cheongsam, it looks like a myriad of styles.

I stayed in the Cangshan Garden·Private Pavilion Garden Queen Room. The room has a lot of space and a courtyard with a small wooden pavilion. The interior is also decorated with antique wooden decorations, giving people a warm feeling. The large floor-to-ceiling windows ensure sufficient light. Lying in the bathtub, you can see the beautiful scenery of Cangshan Mountain in the distance. You can see the lush trees and vibrant images. It is worth mentioning that this courtyard is very private. One person monopolizes such a large space and can also avoid being disturbed by others. It is really a blessing for a shallow sleeper like me!

What I must focus on is the hotel's service. The personal housekeeper not only brought me a lot of fruits and snacks, but also prepared travel guides for me during the past few days when I was playing. He also part-time as a driver and tour guide to take me everywhere. He took many beautiful photos of tourists!

The first day I came to Dali passed by in a leisurely tour of the hotel. The next day, I will transform into a tourist and wander through the streets and alleys of Dali to experience the local customs and customs ~

Early the next morning, the housekeeper drove me to Xizhou Ancient Town, which was about 20 minutes from the hotel to the town. After entering Xizhou Ancient Town, after walking for a while, we arrived at a "D"-shaped intersection. The alley began to become narrow and ancient. On both sides were some age-looking shops. The color and atmosphere of the town became ancient and mysterious ~

The housekeeper and I continued to move forward and arrived at a street. The housekeeper told me that this was Sifang Street, the life center of the town, consisting of the main temple and a stage. There are many courtyards of large families in the ancient town, all of which are very old buildings. The housekeeper continued to introduce to me: There are hundreds of Bai residential buildings in the town with their own characteristics in the Ming Dynasty, Qing Dynasty, Republic of China and various contemporary periods. Looking from afar, the building has a unique shape, revealing simplicity and elegance, but also free and easy texture. The town feels very simple and primitive, perhaps because the residents in the ancient town are all locals and there is no excessive commercial development here.

On the way, I bought a local specialty snack, Xizhou Baba, and ate it while shopping. It was quite delicious. There are many tie-dyeing workshops in Xizhou, which is right for me. They are cheap and have beautiful designs. I chose several silk scarves to take to my family and friends.

After visiting Xizhou Town, I returned to the hotel. Seeing that it was still early, the housekeeper suggested that I go to the Three Towers Reflection Park next to the hotel. The park is not far from the hotel. I saw it after walking for about 13 minutes. This park was built in the 1980s. There is a large swimming pool in the center, surrounded by pergolas, marble tables and benches, and long marble railings. There is a creek around the swimming pool. The weather was relatively sunny that day. I saw many tourists coming here to take the reflection of the three towers. In the reflection of the blue lake, the blue sky, white clouds, and the three towers complement each other. The scenery is amazing ~

On the third day, we arrived at the Erhai Lake early and looked forward to the sunrise of the Erhai Lake! The personal housekeeper made an appointment with me early on, and we set out after breakfast. It was still dark when I left the house, and the surroundings were quiet. The Erhai Lake is surrounded by mountains. The sunrise is relatively late. The sun had not yet risen when we arrived. Occasionally, a few seagulls will fly by on the quiet sea. The water waves ripple and there is the sound of waves beating ~

The mountains in the distance were gradually dyed red. When the sun jumped out of the mountain peak, the entire sea became bright. The surging waves became beautiful under the illumination of the sun. Everything became unreal. Time seemed to be still, and only the excited heartbeat in my heart could be heard!

After watching the sunrise on the Erhai Lake, the housekeeper took me for a ride around the Erhai Lake. The car drove along the road smoothly. The housekeeper introduced me to the historical origin of the Erhai Lake and the best places to enjoy the Erhai Lake along the way. The Erhai Lake is so beautiful!

As we all know, Cangshan and Erhai are synonymous with Dali. After seeing the Erhai Lake, how can you not see the majesty of Cangshan!

We arrived at Cangshan after lunch. Climbing is a physical activity. Fortunately, Cangshan has cableway facilities to climb the mountain. There are three cableways in total. The routes are different. We chose the cableway from Tianlong Babu Film and Television City to Ximatan. This route is the longest and ends at Ximatan, the highest altitude. On the return journey, you can reach Qilongnu Pond. Ximatan has mountains full of azaleas, which is super spectacular. On the way back from the cableway, there is also the Qilongnu Pond, which is said to be the bathing place for the dragon ladies of the Erhai Lake. The water in the pool is crystal clear and the scenery is very beautiful.

Soon it was the last day of the journey. I heard from the housekeeper that the winter cherry blossoms were blooming. I planned to go and see the beautiful cherry blossoms and give myself a set of beautiful cherry blossoms photos ~

Speaking of this, I have to say that the villa between mountains and rivers is backed by Cangshan Mountain and facing the Erhai Lake. The name has a classical meaning. This is a "Xanadu" community known to only locals. Dongying is located across the street from Dali University. Dali University is open to the public for free and takes only about ten minutes to drive from the hotel. There are slopes, streams, and bridges here, and cherry trees are planted on both sides of the road. I was standing under the cherry blossom tree, and the housekeeper had been helping me take photos. The housekeeper's photography skills were good. He told me that he had studied photography before, which was so excellent! Cherry blossoms fell from beside me, on my shoulders, on my hair... The photos taken are really beautiful!

After playing, it was still early, so we went to what locals call the "most beautiful road" that tourists often check in. The road was very long, and I was shocked by the extension of space. There was not much traffic when we went there. If we want to take photos on the road, we must be careful!

I was ready to return home. After dinner, the housekeeper drove me to the airport. We said goodbye to each other and made an appointment to see each other next time. I came in a hurry, but I didn't want to part when I returned. I am very satisfied with the private customized services of the Beautiful Meet·Mengdiezhuang Hotel, which gave me a relaxing and pleasant trip to Dali. This is probably Dali's way of being friendly and blessing to foreigners. The beautiful scenery of Dali also allowed me to truly appreciate that poetry and distance can coexist. Meeting is happiness. Meeting romantic Dali, meeting Cangshan Snow, Erhai Love, and meeting beauty. The breeze blew by, and I felt that I had returned from Dali for more than ten days, but my heart still yearned for it.
