Dali

This is the weather in Yunnan. The temperature difference varies greatly in the morning. During the day, the sun shines through thick clouds and the earth is sultry. This is exactly like summer. At night, there is a cool breeze and some autumn breath.

Our inn is in the suburb near the ancient city of Dali, and I can't help inviting friends from the same industry because of the faint silence at night. After discussion, we will visit the ancient city of go to dali.

Located between Cangshan Lake and Erhai Lake, the ancient city of Dali was once the capital of Nanzhao and Dali. Yu Ye, the ancient city of Dali, is also called Zicheng. The ancient city was built in the 15th year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (AD 1382), with a history of more than 600 years. The ancient city covers an area of 3 square kilometers, and there is a gate in the east, west, north and south, one is Chengnan Tower and the other is Beicheng Tower (North Gate).

We entered the ancient city from the south gate, and the gate was eaves and walls, brightly lit, as if marching in a painting. The ancient Dali kingdom in the novel "Eight Dragons" is close at hand, and the mysterious veil of Qingyuan, an ancient Nanzhao country, is unveiled.

The word "Dali" written on the plaque at the door is a collection of Guo Moruo's calligraphy. From the south gate to the city, there is a Fuxing Road leading directly to the north gate. The bustling market is crowded with pedestrians. There are many shops along the street, selling ethnic handicrafts such as marble, tie-dye, antiques, jade, wood carving, and some Yunnan specialties and foods.

The prosperity of the ancient city makes travelers full of interest, wandering between different shops, shopping leisurely, and waves of people are disturbing but careless.

In the ancient city at night, neon lights light up the luxury and fashion of the city, and the music in the bar flutters in the streets. The old house in the past was polished by this world, hiding its old appearance. Only the bluestone road on the ground is heavy, abrupt and heavy, reminding people all the time that this is an ancient city that has gone through vicissitudes, purgatory and changes.

In this way, we followed the crowd and walked slowly on the stone road, watching quietly. There is soothing and exciting folk music on the street. Maybe this situation is really moved by music. We walked into the bar and chose to sit on the second floor to enjoy and listen.

The folk music deeply sung by the singer is beautiful, subtle, true and romantic. The music played by the guitar is melodious and elegant in the ancient city, which melts the meanings of the ancient city into the heart little by little and is full of feelings, like Gu Lou's complaint and the distant voice, emitting an eternal feeling.

Dali is a lively and quiet, fashionable and quaint, traditional and modern ancient city. Here you can feel the comfort and elegance of life, the warmth and softness of time. It is like a poem, it is like a slowly flowing river, it is like a romantic story, waiting for you to taste and discover.
