Things to do in Yangbi

The Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake scenic area is incredibly beautiful on a sunny day. The cable car station seems to be accessible only by taxi, but taxis in Dali are relatively inexpensive and convenient. Note that there's still a walk up the cable car, which some people might find a bit tiring. Overall, it's very cost-effective.

If you're in Dali, this is a must-do! It's not picky about the weather; a light drizzle or mist creates a very picturesque scene. It won't last long, and soon the sky will be clear with blue skies and white clouds. The cable car ride offers panoramic views of most of Erhai Lake. You'll even pass through layers of clouds. The scenery is beautiful and unique, definitely worth experiencing.

Overall, it was a good experience. The cable car was excellent value for money, offering a long ride and panoramic views of the entire Erhai Lake area. You could see the Cangshan Mountains nestled against the lake, with its long, narrow shoreline dotted with gradually turning golden wheat fields and dense clusters of Bai ethnic minority houses. The Cangshan Mountains are lush and verdant; without the cable car, the ascent would be extremely challenging. Walking along the Panyun Ancient Trail, the shady sections were plentiful, making it quite comfortable.

Dali Ancient City is definitely worth a visit. Entering from the South Gate, the ancient cobblestone streets exude a charming, old-world atmosphere. Backed by Cangshan Mountain, with distant views of rolling hills, it evokes the feeling of the ancient Nanzhao Kingdom. The ancient city's streets and alleys are crisscrossed, with Renmin Road and Yangren Street being particularly lively. You can find Bai ethnic snacks like roasted milk fan and crispy rice cakes on the street. Climbing Wuhua Tower offers a panoramic view of the entire ancient city's rooftops. The main street is lined with shops, making it quite commercialized. Souvenir shops abound, so be sure to compare prices before buying. It's recommended to avoid the crowds and explore the side alleys to experience the local atmosphere. Stroll around during the day, watch the sunset over the ancient city, and enjoy the enchanting ambiance when the city lights up at night. Overall, it's a great experience. I recommend allowing 2-3 hours to explore at a leisurely pace. A must-visit in Dali, perfect for a relaxing stroll and soaking in the city's laid-back lifestyle.

Yunnan is full of beautiful scenery. Shimen Pass is steep and rugged with towering cliffs and layered peaks. Waterfalls cascade down and the pools are clear and bright. Standing in front of the pass and looking up at its true face, one is filled with emotion and deeply impressed by its beauty.

The ticket price was relatively low, mainly for family trips, so it felt like great value for money. My daughter and I tried camel riding, which cost 80 yuan per ride. My daughter had a lot of fun feeding the animals. A sheep chased after us, wanting us to feed it, when a little boy in the distance shouted, "Feed it, and it won't chase you anymore!" With this divine intervention, my daughter quickly grabbed a carrot and fed the sheep, and we were finally free.

Hidden in a secluded canyon, Shimen Pass Hot Spring boasts gentle, natural sulfur spring water that leaves skin smooth after a soak. The pools, built into the mountainside, offer stunning views, allowing you to enjoy the majestic mountains and valleys while soaking. The environment is tranquil and clean, with attentive service, making it an incredibly relaxing and therapeutic experience.

Definitely buy a 2-day or 3-day ticket, which includes a direct bus ticket from Dali to Lijiang. Buying a separate ticket costs 60 yuan. The package ticket is much cheaper than buying each leg of the journey individually. The mini-program is well-developed, responsive, and easy to use. Tickets for departures after 6 PM must be booked in advance, as those times are filled with tourists heading back.
