TABLE OF CONTENTS (a list of all of the places featured in the video)
0:16 - Bad Monkey bar in the Ancient Town
A great bar run by an English guy. They put on live music across their 2 venues in the city. Their own craft beer is really good too, it's a real cross between Camden and China!
0:40 - Exploring the Ancient Town Streets
One of the best things to do in Dali is just walk the streets of the ancient town. You can spend a few hours wandering the paved streets, admiring the traditional architecture of the Bai ethnic minority, trying their local food and snacks, and buying some souvenirs. Dali is probably the most beautiful ancient town in Yunnan, only rivalled by Lijiang (which is much busier!)
1:08 - Dali Ancient City Walls
There are 4 gates in the walls that protected the city of Dali, dating back 600 years to the Ming Dynasty and they are all really well preserved. The North Gate, East Gate, Southgate (it's coming home) and West Gate. We cycled around to see them all.
1:35 - The Three Pagodas
The 3 Pagodas of the Chongsheng Temple are a must see in Dali. You can easily cycle there from the Ancient City and spent a couple of hours exploring the temple grounds and the various gardens and towers.
3:10 - Lake Erhai
Erhai or Er Lake is an alpine fault lake outside the ancient city. Again, its very easy to cycle there. Its name means Ear-shaped Sea, due to its shape. The second largest lake in the province after Dianchi Lake in Kunming (featured in the 3rd episode of the China Series)
3:45 - Kanshan (Cangshan) Mountain
The Cang Mountains (Cangshan) are a mountain range west of Dali City. There are a few different options for cable cars to explore the heights of the mountain, we opted for the Qingbi Waterfall area. I have heard that the Horse Washing Pond is even more spectacular though.
If you have any other questions about this part of the trip or China in general, let me know in the comments - I reply to all of them!

Dali the Ancient Capital City in Yunnan, China
Terry Hodgkinson aka wandering ninja wanders through Dali the first of Yunnan's northwestern unique village cities.
What a beautiful village/city. The mountains all around gave the city a magical feel. Nice to see diversity in clothing from different minorities who live in Dali. Just loved the old pagodas and temples even out on Lake Dali. - Terry
Bacground Info:
Dali is situated near the foothills of the Himalayas, on the southern end of the legendary Silk Road, in Yunnan province, south of Tibet.
Dali is the ancient capital of both the Bai kingdom Nanzhao, which flourished in the area during the 8th and 9th centuries, and the Kingdom of Dali, which reigned from 937-1253. Situated in a once significantly Muslim part of South China, Dali was also the center of the Panthay Rebellion against the reigning imperial Qing Dynasty from 1856-1863.
Dali is also famous for the many types of marble it produces, which are used primarily in construction and for decorative objects. In fact, Dali is so famous for the stone that the name of marble in Chinese is literally Dali Stone
Dali CangShan Mountain - 苍山, Yunnan, China - Part 1
The Cang Mountains (Cangshan)
The Cang Mountains (Cangshan)are a mountain range west of Dali City. Their snow-capped peaks, flowing clouds, murmuring brooks, diverse flora, and historical temples make them one of the most famous attractions in Dali.
It is a great place to enjoy a bird's eye view of Erhai Lake and Dali Ancient Town. Cable car and hiking are both great ways to enjoy the scenery of the mountains.
Chinese: 苍山Cāngshān / tsanng-shan / 'Dark Green Mountains'
Height: The highest summit is 4, 122 m (13, 524 ft).
Popular activities: taking a cable car, hiking
Must-see attractions: Xima Pond, Qingbi Stream, Zhonghe Temple
Suited to: nature lovers / hikers
Time needed: half a day
4 Highlights of the Cang Mountains
The Cang Mountains stretches for over 50 km north to south and has 19 peaks, with the tallest being Malong at 4, 122 meters (13, 524 feet). Picturesque creeks run between each of the summits, and serene waterfalls cascade their way down the rocks.
1. Xima Pond (‘Washing Horses Pond ’)
Ximatan (洗马潭)is an alpine lake with an altitude of 3, 920 meters (12, 861 feet). It is famous for its limpid water and enchanting scenery around it. From March to May, blooming azaleas and lush brushwood make the lake more gorgeous.
According to legend, Kublai Khan, the emperor who founded Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), once bathed his horses in the pond when he defeated the Dali Kingdom. So it was named Ximatan, ‘Washing Horses Pond ’.
2. Qingbi Stream (‘Clear Green Stream ’)
The Cang Mountains consists of 19 peaks. There is a brook between each of the peaks, 18 brooks in total. Qingbi Stream (清碧溪)is the most famous one. It is very relaxing to walk in the tranquil forest and listen to the gurgling stream.
3. Butterfly Spring
Butterfly Spring (蝴蝶泉)is at the foot of Yunnong Peak, about 40 km from Malong Peak. It is like a gem laying in the green shade of the mountains. If you visit between April and May when all kinds of flowers are in blossom, you will see thousands of bufferflies around the spring.
4. Buddhist Temples
Apart from natural scenery, you can also visit some historical temples in the mountains, like Gantong Temple, and Zhonghe Temple.
Taking a Cable Car
There are three cableways in the mountains: Ximatan Cableway, Zhonghe Cableway, and Gantong Cableway.
Ximatan Cableway
Ximatan Cableway is the longest one, with a length of 5, 555 meters (18, 225 feet), and takes you to an altitude of about 4, 000 meters (13, 123 feet).
Ximatan Cableway has a mid-way station where you can get off to take some pictures. The whole journey is about 40 minutes. If it is too windy, you will end your journey at the mid station.
As the most expensive cableway, it offers the best scenery . You will enjoy panoramic views of Dali Ancient Town and Erhai Lake, and see different mountain scenes: from pine forests and alpine lakes to patches of snow.
Other Cableways
The other cableways will get half way you up the mountains. If you have no shortage of time and energy, you can take one of these cableways and then climb to the top.
Cableway Costs:
Ximatan Cableway:300 yuan for a round trip, 150 for one way
Gantong Cableway:80 yuan for a round trip, 50 for one way
Zhonghe Cableway:100 yuan for a round trip, 50 for one way
Hiking
Hiking up the mountains is popular. The main route is not actually a difficult wild hike, since most of the time you'll be on concrete steps and paths.
Most hikers start from Dali Movie Studio and hike for about one hour to Jade Belt Road (or called Cloud Traveller's Path)— an 18-km (11-mile)paved trail that runs from the south to the north of the mountains.
Leave yourself an entire day to enjoy the beautiful views up on the mountains if you want to
do hiking all the way.
The Best Way — Cableways and Hiking
The best way to enjoy the scenery of the mountains is to combine cableways and hiking , saving time and energy for the best bits.
You can take one of cableways up to the Cloud Traveller's Path, hike along the path to enjoy the views on the mountains, and then take another cableway down to the foot of the mountains.
