Dali Ancient City (Yunnan)

#chinatravel Dali Ancient City is a relaxed, artsy town surrounded by mountains and lakes, offering a peaceful escape from China’s major cities. With its laid-back vibe, white-walled Bai architecture, and charming shops and cafes, it’s easy to spend hours wandering the quaint streets. You’ll find unique local crafts, herbal teas, and delicious snacks. Set between Erhai Lake and the Cangshan Mountains, Dali is perfect for biking, hiking, or just soaking in southwest China’s cultural richness.
