A friend wants to buy a villa in Dali. What are some recommendations?

If you want to buy a villa in Dali, it is best to go to the west coast of Erhai Lake between Xiaguan and Shangguan. The east coast of Erhai Lake is not suitable for living (although there are many villas there). The main reasons are as follows:

1. Analysis from a geological perspective. The geology of the east coast and west coast of Erhai Lake is completely different. Cangshan Erhai Lake was formed by the collision of the Indian Ocean Plate and the ancient Yangtze Plate. During the collision, the ancient Yangtze Plate cut under the Indian Ocean Plate, forming the Erhai Lake; the Indian Ocean Plate was pushed up, forming Cangshan Mountain. Therefore, the east coast of Erhai Lake is a limestone karst landform that cannot hold water. You will understand it when you go there. It has barren mountains and sparse vegetation. The location of Dali Airport is called "Barcelona Dam". It is not without origin. The west side of Erhai Lake is composed of sedimentary rocks that can hold water. Cangshan Mountain has dense vegetation and long streams. The only thing that is better about the east coast than the west coast is that the scenery is better than the west coast. From the east coast, Cangshan and Erhai Lake are far more spectacular and beautiful than the west coast. But think about it, if you were a god, would it be better to live on Penglai Island or view Penglai Island from a distance? This is self-evident.

2. Analysis from a meteorological perspective. Dali is located in the southwest monsoon zone, and most of the wind blows from the west coast to the east coast every year. If you check the wind map of Dali online, you will understand that the polluted air on the east coast must be heavier than the west coast. Therefore, the characteristic of Dali folk houses is that they face west and face east, which is different from the traditional layout of Chinese folk houses facing north and south. In this way, the wind blowing from west to east is not easy to blow into the house. Therefore, one of the three treasures in Dali is the "wind-blown courtyard handle". Houses in the Haidong area, especially those near Erhai Lake, can only sit east and face west, so that the wind can easily blow into the house. In addition, you can only see the sun on the east bank when the sun rises very high in the morning, while watching the sunrise on the west bank is very beautiful. In the afternoon, the sun shines on the Erhai Lake. The sunlight is strong and the reflection from the water surface shines directly on the east bank, while the west bank does not have this problem.

3. Analyze from a historical perspective. Historically, Nanzhao Kingdom and Dali Kingdom both had their capitals on the west bank of Erhai Lake. Dali Kingdom was the longest-lasting dynasty in Chinese feudal society, but its capital has always been on the west bank of Erhai Lake and little development has been done on the east coast. Most of Dali's historical monuments are now on the west coast of Erhai Lake. On the east coast there are only Shuanglang (fishing village), Nanzhao Fengqing Island (artificial attraction), Jinsuo Island (fishing village), Tianjing Pavilion (newly built attraction), etc. The only ones with historical sites are The origin is Xiao Putuo. The ancients paid much more attention to the place of residence than modern people, that is, they paid more attention to Feng Shui. It was not without reason that they chose the west coast of Erhai Lake.

4. Analyze from the real environment. Since the west coast of Erhai Lake has been the main residence of Dali for a long time, various conditions are complete, such as transportation, shopping malls, markets, schools, hospitals, entertainment, etc., while the east coast of Erhai Lake is much worse. You can go to the local area to have a look, such as Dali Mansion, etc., you have to drive to buy groceries. By the time these facilities are almost fully constructed, maybe N years have passed. Although the government now strongly supports the development of Haidong and recommends Haidong real estate, this also proves from another aspect that Haidong is worse than Haixi. Who wouldn't keep the good things for themselves? I recommend it to you and learn from Lei Feng. As far as I know, there are many villas for sale on the west coast of Erhai Lake, such as Canghai Villa, Gantong Villa, Cangshan Garden, Shanshuijian, Dali Sanheyuan, etc. You can go and see them in person.
