I thought Dali was already beautiful until I went to Shaxi

My dears, if you are also looking for a quiet and poetic ancient town to let your soul rest for a while, Shaxi Ancient Town will not disappoint you. I spent two days in Shaxi. Time passed as slowly as a poem, and the sweetness of life was hidden in every corner. - 📸【Photograph】Internet celebrity camera position Day 1️⃣: 🌉Yujin Bridge: The morning mist in winter is amazing, and the branches of the trees are sprouting tender green buds in this season. The ancient bridge spans the Heihui River, with mountains and water as its backdrop. The river reflects the trees and cattle and sheep on the shore, and any photo taken looks like an oil painting. 🎭Ancient stage: In the morning, the sun shines on the wood carvings, and the upward shot shows their grandeur; in the afternoon, the light and shadows are charming, and sitting on the steps will give you a full sense of atmosphere. 📚 Pioneer Bookstore: In the afternoon, sit by the window in the store, with coffee and books as your companions, and get the same seat as Li Xian. - Day 2️⃣: 🌄Beilong Village Observation Deck: Get up early and overlook the panoramic view of the ancient town, which is shrouded in morning mist and smoke, with scattered houses and a wide-angle view to capture a dreamlike scene. 🛣Sifang Street, Sideng Street: The evening afterglow sprinkles on the cobblestone road, and the center of the street rotates 360° to capture the shops, passers-by, flowers and plants, and the atmosphere is full of fireworks. ☕Youfeng Restaurant: You can check in the words "Shaxi" at the door. 🏡Mountain Breeze Courtyard: A tree house in a fairy tale. - 🛏About accommodation This time we stayed at the "Dao Xiangban Villa" near the ancient town. We could see large areas of rice fields and rapeseed flowers outside the window, as well as scattered villages at the foot of the mountain, which was very photogenic.
