Dali | Cangshan Erhai Lake, embark on a romantic journey

| Cangshan Erhai Lake, embark on a romantic journey. Rated as the ceiling of healing by National Geographic! The wind of Erhai Lake blows away all fatigue. Cangshan Mountain reflects the snow, Erhai Lake reflects the moon, Xiaguan wind blows Shangguan flowers. This is the synonym of poetry and distance, the gentle hometown of wind, flowers, snow, and moon. "Cangshan Mountain is a timeless painting without ink, Erhai Lake is an eternal zither without strings." Some people always say that Erhai Lake is too crowded, until I avoided the crowds and went deep into the west coast of the lake— It turns out that this is the correct way to open Erhai Lake 👉 Please accept the guide for a niche and healing 2-day, 1-night trip! 📍 Erhai Lake, Dali 🎫 Free to circle the lake, some attractions charge separately ✈️ Fly to "Dali Fengyi Airport" 🚄 High-speed train directly to "Dali Station", take a taxi/rent a car for 30 minutes to reach the edge of Erhai Lake 🌊 Essence check-in points 1. Longkan Wharf: The "sacred place" for the sunrise of Erhai Lake, the redwood trees and the blue lake water reflect each other, and the morning light sprinkled on the water is like an oil painting. 2. Panxi Village S-bend: A must-go for cycling! It is even more dreamy when the seagulls are flying. It is recommended to avoid the crowds in the early morning or at dusk. 3. Xizhou Ancient Town: The living fossil of Bai ethnic customs, the rice fields and tie-dye workshops are intertwined into Hayao Miyazaki's summer, and the corner building is a photo that will be a hit. 4. Shuanglang Ancient Town: "The First Town of Cangshan Erhai Scenery", the seaside cafe faces Erhai Lake, waiting for a pink and purple sunset. 5. Xiaoputuo: A winter-limited seagull island, take a boat to the island to feed the seagulls, and listen to the Bai ethnic grandma tell the legend of Guanyin. 6. Zhoucheng Tie-dye Workshop: TOP1 non-heritage experience! Make blue and white tie-dye by hand and feel the warmth of the millennium craftsmanship. 7. Haishi Park: A secret place surrounded by the sea on three sides, the couple tree and the dead wood group interpret "lonely aesthetics". 🚴 Roaming route 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝟏: Slow time in the ecological corridor Longkan Wharf chasing the sunrise → Cycling along the ecological corridor (Longkan to Caicun section) → Eating Xizhou Poplar Cakes in Xizhou Ancient Town → Zhoucheng Tie-dye Experience → Stay in a seaside B&B on the west coast of the lake (watch the stars at night) 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝟐: In-depth tour of Huanhai East Road Strolling in Shuanglang Ancient Town → Afternoon tea at Yang Liping Sun Palace → Taking pictures of "Trees in the Water" at Wase Wharf → Feeding seagulls at Xiaoputuo → Watching the "Coastal Rainbow Road" in Wenbi Village → Return trip 📌 Travel Tips - Choose the Haixi Ecological Corridor for cycling (motor vehicles are prohibited), Haidong is suitable for self-driving/chartered cars, and you can stop and take pictures along the way. - Accommodation strongly recommends lakeside B&Bs on the west coast of the lake! In the off-season, the average price of 200+ can get you a 270° view room, and the pastoral B&Bs in Xizhou are also very distinctive. - Must-try: Xizhou Poplar Cakes (sweet and savory), Eryuan Milk Fan, Sour and Spicy Fish, Raw Skin, avoid the main street of the ancient city and find local restaurants. - The price of tie-dye experience is about CNY 80–150/piece, and the old workshops such as "Puzhen" and "Lanxu" in Zhoucheng are more authentic. - Check the sunrise time in advance! Arrive at Longkan Wharf before 7 o'clock, and the atmosphere of the seagull season in winter (November–March) is full. - Outfit suggestions: White long skirt + straw hat are suitable for all scenes, and you need to prepare a coat for the large temperature difference between morning and evening. "Maybe love is waiting by Erhai Lake" Here, time turns into slow motion Waiting for a gust of wind, waiting for a cloud, waiting for a trip to reconcile with yourself ❤️
