What are the four scenic spots in Dali?

Wind, flowers, snow and moon are the four most famous landscapes in Dali, which refer to Xiaguan Wind, Shangguan Flower, Cangshan Snow and Erhai Moon.

1, Shimonoseki peak

Xiaguan wind refers to the wind that blows into Xiaguan in Xi 'er River Basin, which lasts all year round, especially in winter and spring, and the maximum wind speed reaches 10. Shimonoseki is located at the exit of a long valley between Cangshan Mountain and Ailao Mountain. Cangshan Mountain, which stretches for hundreds of miles, blocks the atmospheric circulation. The straight westerly winds prevailing in winter and spring and the Indian Ocean and Bay of Bengal monsoon in summer and autumn enter Shimonoseki through this valley, forming a strong westerly wind between winter and spring and a southwest wind at the turn of summer and autumn.

The average wind speed in Shimonoseki is extremely fast, and spring and summer are the windy seasons in Shimonoseki every year. There are more than 25 days of strong winds in a year. Walking on the street of Xiaguan Wind, the wind tore at the skirt and blew away the fatigue of the journey, which was refreshing.

2. Shangguanhua

Shangguanhua means that Shangguan is an open grassland full of colorful flowers, which is called "Shangguanhua". Dali has a mild and humid climate. "Winter ends in Liang Yu and summer ends in temperature" is the most suitable for the growth of flowers and trees. Therefore, loving and cultivating flowers has become a living custom of the Bai people in Dali. The origin of the name of Shangguan Flower is because in ancient times, there was a strange flower in Shangguan called "Zhu Chaohua", which was as big as a lotus flower and could be smelled ten miles away.

When this flower was planted is impossible to verify. I only know that from the Yuan Dynasty to Mindfulness, the flowers bloomed very well, and the rich fragrance spread a hundred paces every year. Then it became extinct. Legend has it that when a hundred flowers are in full bloom, the audience gathers, and corrupt officials blackmail the local people in the name of viewing. The people complain and have to kill them secretly. But until today, Bai people have become accustomed to loving flowers.

3. Cangshan Snow

Cangshan snow refers to Cangshan snow that is not needed after summer and is a must in Cangshan landscape. In winter, thyme Cang Xue. In spring and March, there is still a pile of silver jade above the snow line. Cangshan snow, which is not used after summer, is the most famous "romance".

The snow on Malong Peak, the highest peak, does not melt all year round. In midsummer, the mountainside is green and dripping, but the peak is still misty and snowy. The Cangshan trail in Dali is winding and steep, and it was very difficult to explore the Range Rover in Cangshan in the past. Now there is a cableway that goes straight to the mountain.

4. Moon in Erhai Lake

Erhai Lake means Erhai Lake is shaped like an ear. Seen from the air, Erhai Lake is like a crescent moon, lying quietly between Cangshan Mountain and Dali Bazi. Erhai Lake has three islands, four continents, five lakes and nine bends. The lake is crystal clear and has been called "flawless jade in the mountains" since ancient times.

Every moonlit night, the water is like the sky and the moonlight is like water, so it is called "Erhai Moon". Every August 15 Mid-Autumn Festival night, Bai people who live near Erhai Lake in Dali paddle wooden boats into Erhai Lake to enjoy the golden moon reflected on the sea.
