The story of living in Dali

I have seen the most desolate field in June 1 1.

I have seen the winter cherry blossoms in 65438+February.

I have seen the cold wave weather of sleet in June+10/October in 5438.

I plan to spend all twelve months in Dali in the past two years, live in Dali and live the life I want.

This is the hometown of five golden flowers, a romantic town written by Jin Yong. Every place is a landscape, and every place has a story. The scenery in Dali is near Erhai Lake. On the other side of the water, Cangshan Erhai Lake can be seen as much as possible. Dali's personality is near Erhai Lake. Whether it is the ancient city, Xizhou, Shuanglang or Caidui, every place is blessed. Dali is an important cultural and economic center in the East and West in history. Bonan Ancient Road and Tea Horse Ancient Road, known as the Southern Silk Road, are important distribution centers. Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture is a famous hometown of literature. Nanzhao and Dali established their capitals here in the Tang and Song Dynasties. Cangshan is like a screen, Erhai is like a mirror, bells and drums of Chongsheng Temple are ringing, and the quaint and elegant foreigner street leads Dali to the colorful world in front of us.

Take a taxi from Dali Ancient City to Caicun Wharf.

Village pier near the path.

Fortunately, I resisted the "smelly"

Welcome by flies and insects, we will continue to move forward without hesitation.

Come to the middle of the sea as deep as the tongue.

Along the way, I lamented that these were once, and some were forced to stop working while they were still under construction.

The concave shape in the above picture (it was also a 270-degree sea view room before)

I really hope that after treatment, the water in Erhai Lake will be clear.

After that, we should cherish it more.

Take a double-decker bus around the sea

Mainly visit the East Line of Erhai Lake.

That expectation and surprise for the renovation of Erhai Lake

Shuanglang ancient town was built beyond recognition.

Don't say beautiful, even walking is difficult.

The seaside is full of "dirty mess"

It makes people stunned and expresses regret.

Walking on the sea

I'm glad I didn't give up this place and finally came.

Because of the large-scale renovation of Erhai Lake

From Xizhou B&B to Chaoyang.

Wind, soil and sand all the way.

After walking for 2 hours, I finally arrived at Haishe Park.

The sea tongue in the morning is "desolate"

Mosquitoes buzzing in their ears

goose bumps

The water at the end of the sea tongue is crystal clear.

These shells are illuminated by dazzling lights.

Show more charming colors

Encounter a big banyan tree in the water

Have a good time

Haiyan, I like you so much.

Catch go to dali for the first time.

I don't feel much about the ancient city of Dali

This time it's because I live near the ancient city.

After traveling all over the world.

Fascinated by the romantic life in Dali.

The ancient city of Dali is amazing.

Direct flight to Dali, although it will save more than ten minutes than direct flight to Kunming, but the total distance cost, I chose direct flight to Kunming and then train Kunming-Dali;

In this way, in terms of travel expenses, one person will save 500 yuan.

Choosing the mode of transportation by plane is really exciting and tangled. Excitement is due to shortening the time and distance between destinations, and entanglement is due to the fact that the delay has become a difficult process that must be experienced by flying. Perhaps it is because of the off-season, almost all of them arrive on the hour, saving Yunnan a lot of time.

Considering taking the train from Kunming to Dali at night, it is most convenient to locate the railway station as today's transit station, and take the airport bus from the airport to the railway station.

airport shuttle

After picking up the luggage, we arrived at the lobby of the airport. The airport buses of 1, 2 and 3 lined up and waited on one side of the road. Airport Express Line 2 has two lines to the railway station and Wujiaba, so you can get on the bus and buy tickets. At the airport, there are also ticket outlets for all airport buses on the way from the boarding gate to the checked baggage. You can buy tickets here and you can rest assured that there are regular ticket stubs.

Airport Bus Line 2 (direction of railway station)

Ticket price: 25 yuan/Zhang (whole journey)

Departure time: 05: 00 am-23: 00 pm, every 15 minutes.

Train Station Departure Location: Walk from the Progress Hall of Kunming Railway Station 100 meters. There is a sign at the door with "Kunming International Airport Railway Station City Terminal" on it. On the way back, I found that there was a 9 19 C line (5: 00 ~ 2 1: 00) outside, which was nearly half cheaper than the airport bus and had a long interval.

Time-consuming: 40min~60min. There will be traffic jams in the city during the day, and if there is no traffic jam, it will take more than 30 minutes.

Checked baggage

Taking the train from Kunming to Dali overnight has become the first choice for most tourists who come to Kundali. After passing the security check at the railway station, there is a more formal bag storage place next to the Dicos on the left, which is charged according to the number of pieces. 5 yuan is open from 7 am to 23 pm.

Every morning, I will set out from the ancient city of Dali and go to Erhai to watch the sunset. Erhai Lake is the nearest place to Hill, and it only takes ten minutes to get to the place to watch the sunrise. It is recommended to visit Caicun Wharf and Tornado Wharf. In the last two years, Erhai Lake in Dali has been treated, and now it has really become a lot more beautiful. Many plank roads have been built along the lake, and homestays and restaurants are also at a certain distance from the river, thus avoiding the secondary pollution of domestic sewage. However, the transformed Erhai Lake is more beautiful than before. Cars are not allowed. You can ride a bike or an electric car and go hiking. I recommend bicycles, which are environmentally friendly and energy-saving.

I have to say that the S-shaped highway at Longkan Wharf is so similar to the S-shaped highway in Panxi Village in Celebrity on the Internet that I can't tell them apart. I went to Longkan in the morning and Panxi Village at noon, but there were many tourists.

Seeing the sunrise is lucky and happy, but sometimes luck is always unexpected. I still remember that in the early morning of May, 20 17, the train arrived in Dali, accompanied by sunrise all the way. That sunrise was really beautiful. I finally felt the rainbow harvested after the rain on the south gate of Dali ancient city. I went to see the sunrise a few days later, but I didn't see it so amazing.

Dali in winter is very cold in the morning, but many photography teams take wedding photos here, not afraid of the strong wind by the sea, and take pains to interact with seagulls.

There are Internet celebrities B&B in Dali, and there are also many scenic spots among Internet celebrities, but I don't like chasing such "Internet celebrities" to punch in at Lailongkan Wharf. At first, it was just because it was a good place to watch the sunrise. The sunrise in winter is about 8 o'clock, but I didn't see the expected sunrise. I went to the seaside for two days in a row, but I missed the sunny day. Thick clouds stopped in the east where the sunrise was about to rise and refused to disperse, although I didn't get the expected sunrise. However, while there were few tourists in the early morning, I enjoyed the scenery along the wooden plank road counterclockwise in Longkan ancient town. The ever-changing scenery did not affect the slightest play because of winter. Ponds, wetlands, Metasequoia glyptostroboides and landscapes adapted to local conditions make you relaxed and happy.

You can go all the way south, or you can consider going north along Longdong Gudu. My suggestion is to consider going north, smooth and go north at night. Glory is softer. In the area of Caicun, Sansheng Island and Longdong Wharf, foreign cars and electric cars are not allowed to come in, and human bicycles are allowed to come in.

As long as we cross the Longdong and Gudu, fewer and fewer people leave on both sides. Most of the people you see are health workers. It must be said that the governance of Erhai Lake has achieved remarkable results and its management is very strict. No drones are allowed in expressway around Haixi Road. Can only be placed in the village off the road.

Walking through the ancient city of Dali, cherry blossoms on the edge of the ancient city wall came face to face. The cherry blossoms in June 5438+February and June 5438+1October are winter cherry blossoms, but I didn't say that I thought spring really came! Every time I come to Dali, I am used to living in or near the ancient city of Dali, because the traffic here is the most convenient and it is close to all the scenic spots around Cangshan Mountain in Erhai Lake. In addition, there are many restaurants to eat and many accommodations to choose from in the ancient city of Dali.

I found a local mushroom soup pot restaurant near Erhaimen, which tastes quite authentic, and I can sit on the balcony on the second floor, eating delicious food and watching people coming and going in the streets of the ancient city.

Wild mushroom pot bottom

There are dozens of kinds of mushrooms in Yunnan, such as Tricholoma matsutake, Dictyophora, Boletus, Morchella, and Termitomyces. In addition, you can also eat fleshy Boletus flavipectus, peach blossoms, black truffles, dictyophora, Penicillium and Tripterygium wilfordii. Mushroom soup has high nutritional value. I ordered them one by one.

There are more than ten kinds of wild fungi to choose from.

This pot of mushroom soup is made of local chicken and pig bones, which is rich in nutrition, and at the same time, various mushrooms with local characteristics are added.

Boiled in water, you can choose more than ten kinds of bacteria (Boletus, Lactarius, Horn, Lentinus edodes, Cordyceps, Cold Mushroom in Snow Mountain, Old People, etc. ). I chose Boletus, Dictyophora, Morchella, or ordered a wild mushroom platter, including Boletus, Dictyophora, pholiota adiposa, Boletus, Yam, and some small ones.

Wild Mushroom Cooking: Saussurea involucrata

There are many ways to make mushrooms. Besides making soup and eating mushrooms, you can also cook dishes. The fragrant smell of mushrooms makes them taste particularly fragrant. There are shredded pork, peppers and a special dish for dinner.

Special dessert

I ordered a romantic taste for dessert, which was taken from the homonym of romantic love. This is the first time I have tasted such a dessert, and I specially asked the clerk what was in it. In fact, it is made of all kinds of fruits, and you can also see red fruit particles, which taste more like tremella Sydney soup.

Special flower wine

Guests who come to dinner can taste its sanhua for free. In addition to the usual plum, peach blossom and osmanthus, this time I also tasted nearly ten flavors such as purple rice, rose and litchi. My favorite taste is osmanthus.

Delicious home cooking:

Eggplant with mushroom sauce, this dish must be eaten hot. Tomato strips are fried and then poured with juice. If it's not mushroom juice, it makes me feel like Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine. When you come to Yunnan, you will find that many local dishes have mushroom elements, which permeate all kinds of dishes. It is conceivable how much local people like to eat all kinds of mushrooms, so that so many delicious dishes have been developed.

Wash with meat and vegetables.

If you like meat, you can try its own beef, and cut it by hand. It is very thick and strong. In order to ensure the taste of soup, I finally added meat and mixed some vegetables. I chose bean tips and local dishes, which were tender and dizzy.

These two times, go to dali really visited Erhai Gate. Erhaimen has the most delicious food and is the most convenient place to go to Erhai Lake. There are also many accommodations near Erhaimen. Counting, there are more than 10 homestays in Dali, but Erhaimen is the most convenient place.

Erhaimen entered the ancient city and walked all the way to foreigner street. The crowd is the largest at night. Whether it's a bar with emotional appeal or a restaurant with flavor, every place in Dali needs to slow down and appreciate its beauty.

Of all the doors in Dali, I think the south gate is the best. Fortunately, when the south gate opened before, I was lucky enough to climb up, walk on the gate, overlook Erhai Lake, look up at Cangshan Mountain and meet the beautiful scenery of rainbow after rain.

I didn't bring my camera that time, but I haven't encountered such beautiful scenery yet, probably because it seldom rains in winter, so I'll try my luck again in May and June next time.

65438+ 10 came to Dali again in October. Compared with 165438+ 10 and 65438+February, the ancient city of Dali was sparsely populated and caught up with the cold air in Yunnan. The average temperature should be above 10 degrees, but the highest temperature in rainy days these two days is only 4 degrees. The second day I came to Dali, I caught the sleet in Dali, and it was zero.

Let things be as they are, and cherish the present, which is the most life sentiment I have learned this year. Many people complain that Dali is not good, but except for coming to Dali with a group for the first time when I was a child, I caught up with the pouring rain and sat on a cruise ship on Erhai Lake. I feel that my impression of Dali is continuous rain. I came to Dali for the second time three years ago, when the comprehensive management of Erhai Lake in Dali was beginning. Many places, including Shuanglang ancient town, have been dug up. I came to Dali again on 20 19, and I have achieved initial results. Last month, I came to Dali and walked on the newly-built Erhai wooden plank road, which showed me the beauty of Dali. Once Dali came back, it was a paradise suitable for living, so I think I will live in Dali this year and explore more beauty of Dali.

Many small gardens will be ignored after visiting the ancient city of Dali so many times, and Yu 'er Park on Yu 'er Road is one of them.

It was the first time that I came to Yu 'er Park in the evening, taking advantage of a little sunshine to visit the garden in go to dali. There are all kinds of flowers in the garden, such as camellia, chrysanthemum and peony, as well as towering ancient banyan trees, rockery bonsai and clever squirrels. The whole garden is full of vitality, not like winter at all, as if feeling the breath of spring.

This covered bridge also has reflections in the water, especially in the gardens in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are lions of different shapes on the stone bridge, which makes the bleak winter full of vitality.

The Confucian Temple in Dali is a pioneer temple with the dual status of official county in ancient Dali, a landmark building of the ancient city of Dali, and a historical witness of Dali as a national historical and cultural city and a "literary state", which has very important historical, scientific, artistic and architectural values.

Historically, Dali was once the economic, political, military and cultural center of Yunnan and a well-known literary state. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there were as many as 16 Confucian temples in Dali. There were once Dali Confucian temples, Fengyi Confucian temples, Taihe Confucian temples, Xiaguan Confucian temples and Digeser Confucian temples in Dali. For a long time, the traditional culture of China, with the carrier of Dali Confucian Temple, has had a great and far-reaching impact on Dali society with its unique and rich connotation.

The architectural modeling of Dali Confucian Temple has high artistic value, which embodies the architectural style of Dali Palace in the late Qing Dynasty, has the characteristics of Dali Bai architectural art, is a model of China's frontier culture and Central Plains culture, and is a unique and precious historical relic. The restoration and reconstruction of the Confucian Temple is an important measure to protect and enhance the cultural connotation of Dali ancient city and promote the prosperity and development of the city's cultural undertakings, especially in today's beautiful and happy new Dali.

I lived near Erhaimen in Dali ancient city for a few days. There is a garden-style restaurant on Renmin Road. I was attracted by the purple flowers by the window when I passed here yesterday. The wooden building, with its quaint style, is perfect, and there is an open-air courtyard inside, which is particularly warm.

Because it comes at noon, even in Dali in winter, the sunshine is still dazzling. At first, I chose a seat in the yard. The mushroom pot was served with enthusiasm and dazzling light, so I asked the waiter to help me move in and sit down. The boss was very considerate and poured me some homemade wine to taste. My favorite plum wine was too strong, so I gave up decisively and chose peach blossom wine with a temperature of around 10.

I ordered a mushroom pot. There are 8 kinds of wild mushrooms in this pot of soup, the soup base boiled by local chicken, plus Cordyceps, Dictyophora, Morchella and Boletus. There is a small timer after serving, and you can cook for 30 minutes after firing. Corn Baba, very distinctive, is a tortilla wrapped in corn husk. Made into a triangle, it has a faint sweetness, and you can also eat the fragrance of corn leaves, but if you eat it hot, you won't feel soft and waxy when it is cold. Sliced beef with plum. I like this dish very much. It's sour and sweet. Fried beef with plum with colored pepper tastes delicious. Finally, it is a bit like Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine, which suits my taste very well.

Rose milk milk fan soup, if you are not used to baking milk fans, then the dessert made with rich milk flavor should be very suitable for your taste, and girls must like this dessert very much! When traveling, you should also ensure a balanced diet every day. I ordered a local stir-fried arugula, a local green leafy vegetable, which was very refreshing.

Located in Xizhou, Dali, Yunnan, Lang Lang and his wife Gina came here in the second season of the variety "Happy Trio". Dali, which has been longing for a long time, whether it is delicious rice or crisp cakes in Xizhou, Dali, has left unforgettable travel memories for the couple. Dali is really beautiful. It takes half an hour by car from Dali ancient city to Xizhou, where there are Xizhou ancient city and Haishe Park to play.

Xizhou Town, belonging to Dali City, Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, is located in the north of Dali City, with Cangshan Mountain in the west and Erhai Lake in the east. Called "Dali City" in Sui and Tang Dynasties, it was one of the "Ten Eyelids" in Nanzhao period. It is the hometown of the movie "Five Golden Flowers" and one of the famous historical and cultural towns and key hometown of overseas Chinese in Yunnan Province.

Xizhou is one of the birthplaces of Dali culture. As early as the coexistence with Herman, it was already a place where the Bai people lived together. It used to be a flooded city where the Sui Dynasty stationed troops in Dali, so it was called "historical city" or "historical yellow". Nanzhao, the ancient capital of Tang Dynasty, was also built here, which was called Dali City. At that time, it was a "city with many families" and it was "Ten" in Nanzhao period.

If you are also interested in tie-dyeing, you can go to Xizhou or nearby Zhoucun to experience DIY tie-dyeing and make a dress or scarf for yourself or your family. Xizhou ancient town is different from Dali ancient town, with not so many tourists and the ancient city is not so big. It is very satisfying to bask in the sun quietly in the yard in the winter afternoon.

If you have plenty of time, I don't recommend that you take the battery car, just walk, because many battery cars with flavor can't get in. You can rent a bicycle and walk slowly through the ancient town. You don't want to work, you just want to look up at the blue sky and white clouds, and everything will be fine.

There are few tourists in Dali in winter, even in the ancient city where tourists are usually woven. Compared with coming to Dali in February, 65438, there are few quiet people here in winter, and the winter cherry blossoms beside the ancient city wall have already bloomed, which makes me seem to see the breath of spring. I found a homestay in Erhaimen, the ancient city. It took less than one day 100, and I lived comfortably. I will wait for you in Dali. Very warm name. It is only 100 meters away from the ark kitchen hotel on Renmin Road. I am used to getting on and off from Dongyu Street, and walk 50 meters directly through the alley to the hotel. Very convenient. Even if you are carrying heavy luggage, you don't have to worry about the difficulty of the ancient city of Qingshiban Road.

There are deluxe big bed rooms, garden double rooms, parent-child suites, sunshine big bed rooms and deluxe big bed rooms. I live in a luxurious big bed room, with a large space of 45 square meters, simple Chinese decoration style, dry and wet separation of bathtub and bathroom, warm and elegant room layout, high-standard cotton goods and guest supplies, complete facilities, good hardware and services, and various succulent green plants planted in the inn yard.

During my stay in Dali, I will set off from the ancient city of Dali every morning and go to Erhai Lake to watch the sunset. Erhaimen is the nearest place to Hill, and it only takes ten minutes to get to the place to watch the sunrise. It is recommended to visit Caicun Wharf and Tornado Wharf. In the last two years, Erhai Lake in Dali has been treated, and now it has really become much more beautiful. Many plank roads have been built along the lake, and homestays and restaurants are also at a certain distance from the river. It avoids the re-pollution of domestic sewage, but the reconstructed Erhai Lake is more beautiful than before. You are not allowed to drive. You can ride a bike or an electric car and go hiking. I recommend a bicycle, which is environmentally friendly and energy-saving.
