From October 21 to 22 of 2012, we were in Dali. Above postcard has all the food we enjoyed. Yum.

Dali is just a small city of Yunnan where one might consider visiting it may not be worthy. I and Ching Ching scheduled only one and a half day but we regretted it. The city has really a lot to offer.

Dali is surrounded by mountains and the Erhai Lake is placed in its center. We decided to drove around Erhai Lake than cruising in the lake. We preferred exploring the local villages, markets and ports surrounding the lake instead. One highlight in our drive trip was the Dali Old Town where one will sense the city soothing out a surreal but nostalgic breeze of rural life.
