3. Dali Tourism
Dali City
The current location is Xiaguan, far away from the original ancient city of Dali. If you board the Dali City during the day, The Plateau Pearl at the commanding heights of the Pearl Square has a panoramic view of Dali City, Minzu Square, and Yunling Avenue. It is really beautiful! Cangshan Mountain stretches from south to north, majestic and green; the green waves of Erhai Lake are rippling and vast, setting off the beauty and charm of Dali City. On Shunyunling Avenue in the Pearl Plaza, a group of personified white marble sculptures with themes of the four wonders of Dali - wind, flowers, snow, moon and five golden flowers - stand from south to north, giving people a sense of culture.
Dali - Wind, flowers, snow and moon
Wind: Xiaguan wind. According to legend, there lived a white fox on the Xieyang Peak of Cangshan Mountain. She fell in love with a Bai scholar in Xiaguan, so she transformed into a human form and dated the scholar. Their love affair was discovered by Luo Quan, the master of Luoquan Temple in Erhai Lake, and he would not tolerate it. When they were together, they cast a spell to drive the scholar into Erhai Lake. In order to save the scholar, the fox girl went to the South China Sea to ask Guanyin for help. Guanyin gave her six bottles of wind and asked her to use the wind in the bottle to dry up the Erhai Sea to save the scholar. When the fox girl returned to the Tiansheng Bridge in Xiaguan with six bottles of wind, she was plotted by Master Luo Quan. She fell to the ground and broke the five bottles of wind. Then the strong wind gathered on the Tiansheng Bridge, so the wind in Xiaguan was particularly strong. According to scientific explanation, it is because the Nineteenth Peak of Cangshan Mountain is too high, blocking the air convection from the east and west sides, while the Xiaguan Tianshengqiao Canyon between Cangshan Xieyang Peak and Zhemo Mountain in the Ailao Mountains is only the outlet for Xiaguan air convection. Therefore, the wind in Xiaguan is very strong, especially in winter and spring. When walking on the street facing the Tianshengqiao Canyon, people who are blown by the strong wind cannot stand.
Flower: Shangguan flower is also called magnolia. Shangguan flower is located at the foot of Yunong Peak in Cangshan Mountain in Dali. It is a fortress formed to protect Dali since the Tang Dynasty. In Huashu Village outside Guanwai, there is a flower tree named "Shilixiang". It is said that it was planted by the immortal Lu Dongbin. The flower is as big as a lotus, with 12 petals blooming every year and 13 petals blooming every year. The flowers are yellow and white, beautiful and attractive. The fruit shell after flowering is black and hard and can be used as morning pearls, so it is also called morning pearl flower.
Snow: Cangshan Snow. According to legend, in ancient times, a group of plague gods ran rampant in Dali Bazi, causing "ten people to get sick and nine to die." In order to save the suffering people, two brothers and sisters of the Bai ethnic group returned from studying the Dharma under the guidance of Guanyin. They drove the plague gods to the top of Cangshan Mountain and let them freeze to death in the heavy snow. In order to prevent the God of Plague from resurrecting, my sister turned into the God of Snow and suppressed the God of Plague forever on Cangshan Mountain. As a result, the Snowman Peak of Cangshan Mountain has white snow that has not melted for thousands of years.
Month: Erhai month. On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, the Bai people living on the Erhai Lake in Dali will row wooden boats into the Erhai Lake to admire the golden moon reflected in the sea. The skylight, clouds, moon and sea water all work together to form a beautiful picture. Legend has it that there was a princess in the Heavenly Palace who was envious of the happy and happy life on earth, so she came down to earth to a fishing village on the edge of Erhai Lake and married a fisherman. In order to help the fishermen live a life of ample food and clothing, the princess sank her precious mirror into the seabed to clearly illuminate the fish, so that the fishermen could catch more fish. From then on, the precious mirror became a golden moon in Haiti, shining brightly for generations of fishermen, and became the "Erhai Moon" for people to watch.
Dali Ancient City
It is 13 kilometers away from the urban area of ??Dali, backed by Cangshan Mountain and adjacent to Erhai Lake, with a circumference of 6 kilometers and an area of ??4 square kilometers. Yeyu for short, also known as the Purple City, its history can be traced back to the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty. The current ancient city was built in the 15th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1382 AD). According to literature records, it is "magnificent in scale", with a radius of 12 miles and a city wall It is 2 feet 5 feet high and 2 feet thick. There are gates in the east, west, south and north respectively, with towers on them, which are called Tonghai, Cangshan, Chengen and Anyuan respectively. There are also turrets at the four corners of the city, each with its own name: Yingchuan, Yingchuan and Anyuan. Xiping, Kongming, Changqing. The outer wall of the city wall is made of bricks, with rectangular columns on the upper side and a surrounding ditch on the lower side.
The city is well-organized and laid out in a checkerboard shape, with 5 streets from south to north and 8 lanes from east to west. Of course, most of these buildings have disappeared today, and some are still vaguely visible. Now, some of the walls of the north and south cities have been preserved. In 1982, the south gate was rebuilt, and the word "Dali" on the top of the gate was composed of Guo Moruo's calligraphy.
The main street in the city runs from north to south; on both sides of the street are green tile roofs, connected with houses, shops, and workshops, giving it a simple style. It is worth mentioning that the typical Bai folk houses are generally "three rooms and one screen wall" and "four in one and five patios". The so-called "three rooms and one screen wall" means that each household has a main room in the courtyard. It is a two-bedroom house; opposite the main house is a wall. Whenever the sun shines on this wall from afternoon to evening, it is reflected into the courtyard, making the entire courtyard bright. Therefore, it is called "Zhaobi". This situation is more obvious in Xiaguan, Fengcheng. In order to avoid the strong west wind, the main room there usually sits in the west and faces east. The so-called "four in five patios" means that there are houses on all four sides, and there are four small wells at the intersection of the four corners. Together with the large patio in the center of the courtyard, there are five patios in total.
Decoration is another characteristic of Bai folk residential architecture. It pays great attention to gate towers, cornices and painted brackets, which are quite distinctive. Doors, windows and screen walls are often decorated with Jianchuan wood carvings, marble, colored paintings and ink paintings, with exquisite craftsmanship. , fresh and elegant, can be called first-class among southwest residential buildings.
Dali residents love flowers. There is a saying here that "three households have one well, and one household has several pots of flowers". Most residential houses have flower beds in their courtyards, where camellias and other flowers and trees are planted. Every year on the 14th day of the second lunar month, during the Flower Festival, every household puts their potted flowers and trees at the door to create a "flower mountain" to attract people from all over to enjoy. Because of their love for flowers, people also name girls after flowers. "Golden Flower" is the nickname for Bai girls, and Dali is also known as the "Hometown of Golden Flower". The ancient city of Dali is simple and quiet. The streams flowing in the city make people feel refreshed. The Garden Tea House hidden deep in the streets is a good place for tourists to rest, and the newly opened Foreigner Street has become a gathering place for foreign tourists. The snacks with Bai characteristics and the famous "Three Courses of Tea" all make people feel unique and interesting. .
Xiyun Academy was built from 1873 to 1875. It was originally the private residence of Yang Yuke, the governor of Yunnan. Later, Yang was impeached and his residence was changed into an academy. This is a Bai ethnic residential style building.*** There are more than a hundred houses, which are large in scale and spectacular in style. The "Xiyun Academy Stele" preserved in the courtyard has a full text of more than 5,000 words and was written by Yang Yuke. It is valuable for studying the Du Wenxiu Uprising and the history of Dali in the late Qing Dynasty.
The main street in the ancient city has various shops specializing in marble products, Bai tie-dyed fabrics, straw weaving and other famous products, as well as delicious Bai restaurants.
Erhai Lake
It is known as the Pearl of the Plateau. It is named because it looks like a human ear. It is a freshwater lake with an altitude of 1972 meters, a length of 42 kilometers from north to south, a width of 3-7 kilometers from east to west, an area of ??252 square kilometers, and a deepest water level of 21 meters.
Little Putuo
Originally known as Guanyin Pavilion, about ten kilometers north of Jinsuo Island, there is a lonely reef floating on the sea with a pavilion on it. This is Xiao Putuo , this reef is shaped like a square seal, and it is said to be the seal of Zhenhai left by Guanyin Master. Xiaoputuo was built in the Ming Dynasty. It is a pavilion-style building and is divided into upper and lower floors. The first floor has a statue of Tathagata and the second floor has a statue of Guanyin. Since Avalokitesvara is the main image here, and because its location resembles Mount Putuo, a famous Buddhist mountain, and also resembles Putuo, the place where Avalokitesvara lives in mythology, it was renamed "Little Putuo". The best time to visit Xiaoputuo is in the early morning. At this time, mist curled up on the sea, and Little Putuo appeared and disappeared, like a moon palace. When we boarded Little Putuo, we saw the surrounding mist surging like a pure white gauze. This is one of the eight scenic spots of Erhai Lake, "Lan Ai Putuo". Transportation: At 8:00 in the morning, take a boat from Erhai Pier.
Three Pagodas Reflection Park
Go north for one kilometer after exiting the west gate of Dali Ancient City, cross the Taoxi Bridge and follow the main road to the left Walking more than a hundred steps, you will reach the Three Towers Reflection Park. The beauty of the reflections of the Three Pagodas lies even more in the night when the moonlight is like water. At this time, the reflection of the three pagodas is particularly clear. Stars are twinkling in the water around the pagoda shadow, and the jade rabbit moves lightly. People suddenly feel that the world is in heaven and earth, just in one thought.
Chongsheng Temple was a Buddhist temple belonging to the Wang family in Nanshao and Dali during the Tang and Song Dynasties. The pagoda is named after the temple. The latter temple was destroyed and the pagoda remains. The three pagodas form a tripod. It was first built in the Fengyou period of Nanzhao in the Tang Dynasty and lasted more than 2,000 years. The main tower is called Qianxun Tower, and it is a ten-level octagonal hollow brick tower with dense eaves. The main pagoda has east and west sides on each level. There are Buddha statues in the niches and a bronze garuda in each corner of the top of the pagoda. According to legend, this bird can calm the monsters, dragons and ghosts in Erhai Lake. I didn't find the golden-winged bird when I looked closely. Later, I found the bird in the exhibition hall. It was already rusty and damaged. Later generations may have removed it during maintenance and simplified it into this form. The tour guide said that the number of floors in all Chinese pagodas is an odd number, but the three pagodas of Chongsheng Temple have an even number. The reason is that Dali is a matriarchal society, so it is different from other societies.
