What are the tourist attractions in Dali?

Dali is a very beautiful place. Today I will tell you about some related attractions in Dali. They are all popular attractions. You can learn about them when you go there. If you have friends who like Dali, don’t miss it. Lijiang Old Town

Sifang Street: A small square of about 500 square meters in the center of Lijiang Old Town. It has a wide street and four main streets, radiating to all sides, all paved with colorful flowers and stones. It was originally home to various ethnic groups. The place where people traded goods has now become a gathering place for tourists. Every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday night, the local youth association spontaneously gathers in Sifang Street to dance. Dancing is a folk collective singing and dancing activity that is loved by people in many places in Yunnan.

Mufu: The palace of the Mu family, the chieftain of the Naxi ethnic group before the Qing Dynasty returned to the country in 1723, can be called a small Forbidden City. From Sifang Street in the ancient city, walk east along Qiyi Street for about 200 meters and you will see the Menmenkou Archway on the right. Enter Menmenkou and go straight

Mufu is 100 meters away and the entrance fee is 60 yuan.

Heilongtan Park: On a sunny day, the reflection of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is very beautiful. It is a must-visit place for photography enthusiasts. The water there is sweet enough to drink. There is no entrance fee, but you need to show a receipt for the ancient city maintenance fee. From the entrance of the ancient city, the waterwheel goes upstream along the river, and it takes 10 minutes to walk

It takes 10 minutes. Although it's in Chaguvefe, there are still many brave friends who can sneak in. There will be no ticket checking after 7pm. Ancient Town

Shuhe Ancient Town

Shuhe was selected as one of CCTV’s “China’s Charming Towns” in 2005. Generally speaking, it is quieter and more primitive than Dayan Ancient Town. Shuhe has more pastoral comfort than Dayan. It's about 6 kilometers away from Dayan by taxi, and the journey takes 30 minutes.

Baisha Ancient Town

The 2-kilometer-long Baisha Old Street ancient villages, Ming and Qing architectural complexes and Baisha murals are its attractions. It is recommended to go by bike, the scenery on the road is quaint. Compared to riding to Shuhe, many foreigners prefer to ride to Baisha. It is only 4 kilometers from Shuhe to Baisha. You can take bus No. 6 to Baisha. Dayulong Scenic Area

Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is a sacred mountain in the hearts of the Naxi people and other ethnic groups in Lijiang.

The big ropeway has the highest altitude, and you can go into the embrace of the snow-capped mountains, and have close contact with the snow on the mountains and the glaciers at the lowest latitude. It is suitable for friends who live in the south and have no chance to watch snow.

Maoniuping (Middle Cableway) is the next highest in altitude. From here you can view the Thirteen Peaks of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. It is also a good place to appreciate the sunrise and mountain flowers and wild grasses. It is suitable for those who like photography.

Yunshanping (Small Cableway) has the lowest altitude. Looking at the side of the snow-capped mountains and the virgin forest, the legendary Jade Dragon Third Kingdom, the holy place where Naxi youths died for love, is located here. Suitable for friends who are afraid of altitude sickness.

You only need to choose one of the ropeways, and any one of them can pass by scenic spots such as Blue Moon Valley, Ganhaizi, Dongba Valley, Yushui Village, Dongba Wanshen Park, and "Impression of Lijiang".

It is best to go to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain with a pure play group. 6-10 people can enjoy a small group in a business car. It is a completely free, independent and self-service trip. You will not enter the store if you are really just for fun. , full refund, high-quality travel with attitude!

Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is 30 kilometers away from Dayan Ancient Town. If you rent a car, the price is based on the model. A van (so-called black car) is generally 200

Yuan round trip will recommend the purchase of oxygen and cold-proof clothing at a high price, or even compulsory purchase. Commercial cars generally cost 800-1,000 yuan a day. Chartering a car to Yulong is about the same as a pure tour, unless you only go to Blue Moon Valley and don’t go to the ropeway.

You can only save a little money by taking bus No. 7, but this is not a regular bus, it is a private van. The departure time is not fixed, and you often cannot get a bus on the return trip, and some drivers will take passengers to avoid fares. In the name of walking on small roads, people are trying to sell horses and horse riding on the road, which will cost more and is not recommended. Lashihai

is about 15

km away from Dayan. This is where most tourists go. You can spend a day with Shuhe Ancient Town.

Lashihai is a national wetland park with lakes and pastures.

The best season to visit is winter. It is beautiful when the weather is clear and there are large groups of rare migratory birds. You can go bird watching, boating, horse riding and experience the Ancient Tea Horse Road. In spring, there are large areas of rape blossoms, peach blossoms, pear blossoms, red plum blossoms, etc. It is called a gorgeous mountain flower. Summer is the rainy season. When the weather is bad, the Lashi Sea becomes dusty and the scenery is greatly reduced. In the autumn of Lashi, the sky is clear and the clouds are clear, and the sea of ??cosmos flowers is as bright as clouds, which is so beautiful.

The cost of horseback riding varies from 150 to 600 depending on the distance of the route.

The price can be negotiated. It can be seen from this that the dozens of Lashihai day tours on the street also include horse riding fees, which is obviously not fun. As for those who give Lashihai for 5 yuan or even for free, if you believe it, it can only be said that your IQ is negative.

The Lashihai Market is chaotic, with endless negative news. It can be called the most chaotic attraction in Lijiang. If you go by yourself, you will either get ripped off, and if you don’t want to be ripped off, you will easily get into conflicts with the locals; or if you don’t want to ride a horse or row a boat, you will not be allowed in, and you won’t be able to see anything. To put it bluntly, Lashihai is the only scenic spot in northwest Yunnan that is not suitable for independent travel.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t go to Lashihai. You can go, but you have to go with the right people and choose the right gameplay. The only way is to choose a local pure play group, so that you can spend less money, have more fun, and at least you will not be upset or cheated. But be careful not to quote a low price.

There are dozens of racecourses in Lashihai, almost all of which are in the style of farmhouses. Now some racecourses are unconventional and show off their high-end style, giving people the illusion of being in the Maldives. Not only are the rest areas beautiful, they even have toilets. All are beautiful. What we ate was the local specialty Huotang chicken, with unlimited amounts of chicken and vegetarian dishes, which subverted everyone’s local impression of Lashihai in a gorgeous way. The price is also the same across the city, so you don’t have to worry about being ripped off. The new type of racecourse in the picture above is the only one in Lijiang. For details on how to get there, you can send me a private message.

Warm reminder: Many seahorse farms in Lashi have vendors wandering around selling goods, as well as child care providers. Things sold include snacks, mineral water, tea, medicinal materials, barbecue, photography, raincoats, hats, horse food, etc. Unless you don’t go to Lashihai, you will inevitably see it if you go. Please don't pay attention, don't watch, don't play, don't inquire, and definitely don't buy medicinal tea, etc. Lugu Lake

Lugu Lake is the mother lake of the matrilineal Mosuo people and is also known as the Pearl of the Plateau. When the weather is clear, it is as beautiful as a blue sapphire embedded in the emerald green mountains. When you first see it, you will be amazed by its beauty.

Ticket to Lugu Lake is 100 yuan. Lugu Lake is 217

km away from Lijiang Old Town.

Choice 1: Shuttle bus. Take the shuttle bus to Lijiang Passenger Terminal in Xincheng. This is a state-owned passenger terminal that only goes to Dashuishui Village, not Lige Village. Usually buses and minibuses. There are two departures every day, both in the morning. If you miss these two trips, you can go to Ninglang first, and then share a car to Lugu Lake when you get to Ninglang.

Option 2: Dedicated bus. Many individual travel stores in the ancient city sell "Lugu Lake Special Line Tickets", and innkeepers can also buy them on your behalf. The method of taking the bus is similar to that of the shuttle bus. You only need to buy your own ticket, don't worry about other passengers, and just go and take the bus on time. This is not a regular shuttle bus, some are black buses, but you can stop and take photos, and it will drive to Lige Village, so there are many people choosing it. The disadvantage is that the master will recommend some self-funded projects in Lugu Lake, such as boating, bonfire parties, home visits, dinners, etc. (Those who do not participate in rowing need to wait for others to finish rowing in Daluoshui before they can go to Lige together). Most of the special buses are minibuses. When there are few people, commercial cars and vans will also be sent.

Please note that the dedicated bus is not a carpooling. Don’t be tempted by the inn’s people saying “carpooling” when the receipt they give you says it is a dedicated bus.

Option three: Charter a car (carpooling). Some tourists choose off-road vehicles or commercial vehicles with less than 9 seats. If there are enough people, chartering a car is also a good idea.

Don’t pay attention to those soliciting customers on the roadside! It’s easy to encounter unlicensed car drivers or tourist traps, which will cause endless troubles! Don’t be tempted by low-priced “chartered cars” and “carpooling”, some will recommend consumption, and there are There will be extra money on the way, and some are just pick-up and drop-off, without following in the middle. If you want to use a car, you have to pay extra, and you may even change cars and drivers on the second and third days.

Please note: chartered cars and carpooling are the whole journey. Following, tourists can freely control the vehicle within the route.

Choice 4: Join a pure play group. This goes without saying, right? If you don’t want to be offended by joining a group, just choose to play in a group. Learn to calculate costs. You can check various expenses online. If the tour fee is lower than the cost price, please do not quote it. The streets of the ancient city are filled with 2-day tours of Lugu Lake priced at 2,300 yuan, and they are advertised as just for fun. It’s true. . .

To go to Lugu Lake, most people go to Lijiang first and then set off from Lijiang. Currently it is not possible to go directly from Shangri-La to Lugu Lake.

It can also be reached from other places:

1. From Kunming to Lugu Lake, there is a sleeper car at Kunming Western Passenger Terminal, departing around 20:00 and arriving at 10:00 the next morning. When arriving in Ninglang County, the fare is about 200 yuan. After arriving in Ninglang, transfer to Lugu Lake.

2. From Sichuan to Lugu Lake, you can take train 117 (departing from Beijing), train 165 (departing from Xi'an), train 511 (departing from Chengdu) and get off at Panzhihua Station , there are long-distance buses departing from here to Ninglang at 8:00 every morning. The journey takes 8 hours and the fare is about 45-55 yuan. Tiger Leaping Gorge

On the way from Lijiang to Shangri-La, Tiger Leaping Gorge is the most spectacular grand canyon in the world. The top of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain at the highest point of the canyon has a drop of 3,000 meters from the river, making it the deepest in the world. canyon.

Tickets are 65 yuan. Tiger Leaping Gorge is 80 kilometers away from the ancient city of Lijiang. After driving for about 1.5 hours, you can then walk to Shanghu Leaping Gorge. You can go back and forth on the same day. The chartered bus fee is about 800 yuan for a round trip. If you don't want to charter a bus, you can also take a shuttle bus to the passenger terminal and get off at Qiaotou Town, and then walk for 10 minutes to the Shanghutiao ticket office. But the best suggestion is to go with Shangri-La. Tiger Leaping Gorge is located between Shangri-La and Lijiang. Shangri-La

Originally known as Zhongdian, it is 3,300 meters above sea level. The county seat is about 180 kilometers away from Lijiang Old Town, and the drive takes about 3-4 hours

.

Best travel time: late spring, early summer and autumn. The lush greenery in early summer and the colorful colors of autumn, coupled with the majestic snow-capped mountains, clear lake water, and the blue sky without any impurities, will definitely give you a fairyland-like travel experience.

Many friends left messages asking, is it not suitable to come to Shangri-La except summer and autumn? My answer: No, summer and autumn are the best seasons to travel to Shangri-La. Other seasons are not the best seasons, but each season There are different styles, whether it is desolate and vast, or covered in snow, you can come to Shangri-La all year round and get different scenery and different moods.

I myself have been to Shangri-La in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and I was pleasantly surprised every time. Meili Snow Mountain

Meili Snow Mountain is a sacred mountain in the hearts of Tibetans, and is called "Rongzankawagbo" in Tibetan. As early as the 1930s, American scholars praised Kawagebo Peak as "the most beautiful mountain in the world." It is famous for Rizhao Jinshan, but whether you can see Rizhao Jinshan depends entirely on luck. Some people can't see it even if they go ten times, while some people can see it only once.

If there are a large number of people, you can choose an independent group tour from a regular travel company. The price is a bit higher, but the reliability is high and the travel experience is good.

If you need to join a group tour, first ask whether you want to enter the store and whether there are any hidden costs.

If there are few people, you can ask someone to carpool with you. The risk of chartering a car is that you need to bear all the risks yourself.

Generally, pure play tours are several hundred yuan more expensive than shopping tours, and in-depth tours are several hundred yuan more expensive than pure play tours.

Friends who want to go to Meili Snow Mountain strongly recommend taking a pure play group from Lijiang. The main reasons are:

Pure play groups are different from traditional tourist groups

First of all, in Lijiang, this kind of tour group is called an outdoor club. There is no tour guide in the group, only the leader.

Secondly, this kind of tour group is purely for fun, and there is no shopping

Again, the tour fee only includes travel, accommodation and entrance fees, and does not include meals. All meals will be paid for by yourself

Of course, there are too many clubs in Lijiang Old Town, so be sure to choose word-of-mouth Okay

Why should we go to Meili Snow Mountain with a group tour? There are three reasons -

First, Shangri-La-Meili Snow Mountain is located in a Tibetan area, and there are cultural and language differences with us. , you need someone who understands the customs, speaks the same language, and has rich experience to lead the way

Secondly, the road conditions between Shangri-La and Meili Snow Mountain are relatively complicated, so you need someone who is very familiar with the road to drive

If Some people say that the above two points can be solved by finding a local driver to charter a car.

Well, I can tell you that usually when you go to Shangri-La for the first time, you can find a reliable, experienced, and reasonably priced chartered car. It’s not easy being a driver

The last reason is that you can make more like-minded friends in the club. Yubeng

This is a travel route. It is not recommended for tourists with average physical strength or the elderly and infirm.

Yubeng Village is the legendary most beautiful village in the world. It is located at the foot of Wuguan Peak of Meili Snow Mountain. With beautiful scenery and simple folk customs, it is a veritable paradise. It is worth a visit if you are not afraid of hard work, but the accommodation conditions there are average. Currently, there are only one or two inns with private bathrooms, and the others have public bathrooms and public toilets. The mobile signal is good, but the base station is solar powered and there is no cell phone signal due to bad weather and at night.

Yubeng is a semi-developed scenic spot. There is currently no road access. To enter Yubeng, you can only hike from Xidang Village. Tourists with average physical strength can rent a horse. The horse riding fee is generally about 200 yuan. It is charged by segments. You must rent a horse from the starting point of each segment. If you are tired halfway and want to rent a horse, you can rent a horse. If you don't get it, even if you see an empty horse, you won't be allowed to ride it if you are given money.

If you go to Yubeng by yourself, it is recommended to find a local as a guide. You will pass through virgin forests on the way, and many people can easily get lost. Don't save money unless you are an experienced old donkey.

Following a group tour is the best choice. The tour leaders are all experienced outdoor veterans who have received formal training. They will take care of everyone on the road and may even help female guests with their backpacks. In terms of safety, you can rest assured and the price is reasonable. Yunnan Turtle and Hare Tour is your first choice. Shika Snow Mountain

Shika Snow Mountain Scenic Area is located 7km southwest of Shangri-La County. It is connected to the Napahai Nature Reserve, echoes the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the southeast, and faces Meili Snow Mountain in the northwest. It is not only Diqing It is the closest comprehensive tourist attraction to Shangri-La Airport in the Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. It is also the only three-dimensional ecological and cultural tourist attraction on the Diqing Plateau that is equipped with cable car sightseeing conditions. The highest point of the scenic spot, the main peak of Shika Mountain, is 4449.5 meters above sea level, and the lowest point, Napa Meadow, is 3270 meters above sea level, with a relative height difference of 1179 meters.

There may be no snow on the mountains from June to October.

The snow line of Yulong Snow Mountain is getting lower and lower, and there is not much snow even in winter. In addition, it is impossible to climb to the top and experience the spirit of seeing all the mountains at a glance. This often disappoints tourists who come from all over the world to visit. Some tourists begin to choose to visit Shika Snow Mountain has better scenery, more convenient transportation and cheaper fees.
