the must-see attractions

Dali Ancient City-Dali Ancient City is located at the foot of the beautiful Cangshan Mountain. It was once the capital of the ancient Nanzhao Kingdom and Dali Kingdom. The ancient city of Dali is a suitable place to live, and the aborigines who live here are the ones who know best about life. They work at sunrise and rest at sunset. In their spare time, they cultivate flowers and plants to bask in the sun. In addition, Dali has bright sunshine and suitable temperature, and every household in the ancient city is full of flowers. The steady pace of life attracts tourists from all over the world to flock to the ancient city.

Chongsheng Temple-The three towers of Chongsheng Temple are located kilometers northwest of the ancient city of Dali. They are composed of three towers, one big, two small. The big pagoda is also surrounded by the Chihiro Pagoda, which is called the "Wenbi Pagoda" by the local people. There are three towers standing in a tripod, with Chihiro Pagoda in the middle, and two small towers guarding the north and south, making it majestic and magnificent. Chongsheng Temple was a royal temple during the Dali Dynasty. It is bordered by Erhai Lake in the east and Yingle Peak in Cangshan Mountain in the west. The scenery is very beautiful. The three pagodas are relics with a history of thousands of years and are also the biggest attraction here.

Butterfly Spring-Butterfly Spring is under Yunnong Peak, which is the first peak in Cangshan Mountain. They are about 20 kilometers away from the ancient city of Dali. Butterfly Spring is also very large, covering more than 50 square meters. Why is it called Butterfly Spring? Because in March and April every year, all kinds of small flowers and grass on Yunnong Peak will bloom. At that time, there is an acacia tree in front of Butterfly Spring that will give off a faint fragrance, attracting many butterflies. Flying next to Butterfly Spring is accompanied by the flowing spring water, which is very spectacular. If you come to play in Butterfly Spring on sunny days, you will find that there are really many butterflies here, and there are all kinds of butterflies. Many of them you have seen, and many of them you may not have seen. This scene is like The story of Xiangfei back then. You can attract many butterflies with just a wave of your hand. How beautiful.

Erhai Lake, Shuanglang-Erhai Lake is located east of the ancient city of Dali and is the second largest freshwater lake in Yunnan Province. Because its appearance resembles a human ear, it is called Erhai Lake. The Erhai Lake is long from north to south and narrow from east to west, like a crescent moon. It lies quietly next to Cangshan Mountain and Dali Bazi. The lake water is clear and deep. Boating on the lake makes it feel peaceful and distant.
