Yunnan | Mang City, Tengchong, Dali, love at first sight

Dali, a place where I linger in my dreams, has been tempted countless times by the blue sea and blue sky of the Erhai Lake in the circle of friends. I just want to allow me a holiday and face the sea with spring flowers.
For this trip to Dali, starting from the ancient city, renting a car and traveling around the city, staying in Dali, Xizhou and Haidong for one night. Although the ancient city of Dali has been very commercialized, as an expected sight, we are not surprised or have any psychological gap. We put more thoughts on food and the purpose of exploring cafes. Wandering in the ancient city, teasing cats, acne-prone dogs, and savoring a cup of fine hand-made, this Dali is not unconventional and not ostentatious.

The violent sun accompanied us around the Erhai Lake. Fortunately, we chose to rent a car in the end, because if we are riding a small motorcycle, we probably can't stand the "enthusiastic" ultraviolet rays, and losing a layer of skin is inevitable.
It is precisely because of the blue sky and white clouds that I love and miss Dali even more. It is really not an easy task to see the blue sky for three consecutive days in Guangzhou, and Dali’s deep blue and extremely low clouds sometimes seem to be within reach.

Make a flower cake yourself and eat it! Make friends with alpaca! Abandon a pair of white shoes in the rice fields of Xizhou! The small broken ship in the above pen village almost fell into the tidal flat...These interesting memories will always stay in the National Day of 2020, in my memory!
Oh, by the way, in the end I have to say that Erhai Lake is really not as beautiful as I "dreamed of", and the water is not very blue, WHY? Are you all the little friends in my circle of friends "cheating paper"? BUT... This does not prevent me from still liking Erhai Lake, as long as it is the most authentic appearance!
Let’s start to enter Dali. This part of [play] will go ahead. Of course, food must not be ignored, especially Dali’s coffee and Bai cuisine are very good. If you like, please read it~ Thank you, you are true love!
