Dali

Dali is a place where you will find everything you desire as a tourist - it is blessed with amazing natural beauty, such as the Cangshan Mountains and Erhai Lake; it offers fascinating stories, with its centuries of history as a dynastic capital and ancestral lands; and, it includes diverse ethnic cultures, as home of the Bai, Hui, Yi, Lisu and other ethnic minorities.

A stroll through this aged city is like unraveling a picture of the ancient lifestyles of Dali. With its paved roads and ancient architecture, with black-tiled roofs lining both sides, the renovated streets retain their original look.

A must-go in Dali is Yangrenjie, or the Foreigner's Street. The street has become something of a contemporary legend in Dali.

It's lined with cafes, restaurants and souvenir shops and is the best place for travelers to enjoy a moment of rest. You can swap tips with other backpackers or get a taste of home by sampling the pancakes, pizza and coffee on offer.
