Dali is one of the most popular areas for domestic self-guided tourists, and is especially popular with white-collar workers, students and teachers. It takes 50 minutes by plane and 3 to 4 hours by bus from Kunming. Dali is an ideal place to relax.

Dali is also the government resident of the Dali Bai Autonomous Region. Dali includes Xiaguan and the ancient city. Tourists are attracted by the traditional architecture of the ancient city, ethnic minority culture (mainly Bai, but also Yi and Hui) and the leisurely pace of life. The number of residents in the ancient city of Dali is about 40,000, and the population of Dali Autonomous Region is about 3 million, with a total area of ​​10,000 square kilometers per month. When talking about "Dali", we must first make it clear whether you are talking about Dali City or Dali Ancient City. Even outside the ancient city of Dali, there are many beautiful scenery and interesting things worth visiting.

The beautiful Cangshan Mountain is west of the ancient city of Dali (the main peak is 4122 meters above sea level), and the Erhai Lake is located in the northwest of Dali, Yunnan. It has a perfect natural landscape. Dali has a mild climate, warm in winter and cool in summer, but windy in autumn and winter.

Although Dali is well-known as a backpacker’s paradise, there are far more Chinese tourists here than foreign tourists. Most domestic tourists live in Xiaguan, so the night in the ancient city of Dali is quite peaceful. Currently,LijiangThere is a tendency to surpass Dali. Many foreign tourists want not to bypass Dali directly, but to stay in Dali for 1-2 days. However, Dali is definitely a place worth staying for a few more days.
