Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture is located in the northwest of Yunnan Province. This is a thousand-year-old city. Nanzhao State in the Tang Dynasty and Dali State in the Song Dynasty all took it as their capital. Dali has a long history and culture, and has the reputation of "a famous literary country".

When it comes to Dali, people will first think of the scenery of Dali, which is famous for its wind, flowers, snow and the four moons. Cangshan Lake and Erhai Lake are dotted with three pagodas of Chongsheng Temple. Five golden flowers and their beautiful legends; And the fisherman's feelings by the Erhai Lake.

2. Dali is the settlement of the Bai nationality, with strong Bai customs, and the folk culture of three squares, one zhaobi, four entrances and five patios is profound; Three tea, a Bai nationality, has a long taste. During the whole trip to Yunnan, I'm afraid no other place can make you feel the unique Bai customs like Dali.

There are two options for accommodation in go to dali. One is to stay in Shimonoseki and stay in star-rated hotels, such as the famous Manwan Hotel, Cangshan Hotel and Jinda Hotel in Shimonoseki. This is the political and economic center of Dali, and the tourist reception facilities are relatively perfect. The other is living in the ancient city of Dali, where there are traditional Bai folk houses.

Self-help tourists can better experience Dali's national culture by staying here.
