Diving Into Dali’s Picturesque Old Towns: A Journey Through Time | Yunnan, China
Dali is a thousand-year-old city.
Surrounding this thousand-year-old city, there are countless ancient towns with beautiful scenery and long history.
Each of these ancient towns has its own characteristics and is a long-standing tourist attraction in China. This video will take you to visit some of the most beautiful ancient towns around Dali. I hope you like it.
-------------------⭐⭐
Shaxi Ancient Town
-------------------⭐⭐
Shaxi Ancient Town is situated in the southwest of Jianchuan County in Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province.
It was an important trading hub on the Yunnan-Tibet Tea Horse Road. People of the town sold a wide variety of homemade items for the passing caravans and opened their houses and offered food to them.
Shaxi Ancient Town was included in the World Monuments Fund’s protection list of 101 endangered sites as early as 2001. Pompeii in Italy and the Great Wall of China are also on the list.
Shaxi is an ancient town integrating and preserving medieval business and Buddhist culture, where the ancient stage, ancient temples, ancient shops, ancient alleyways, ancient houses, ancient village gates, ancient trees, ancient wells, ancient bridges, and traditional fairs all remain intact.
-------------------⭐⭐
Xizhou Old Town
-------------------⭐⭐
Xizhou Village is an ancient town in Dali, Yunnan faces Erhai Lake on the east and rests on Cangshan Mountain in the west, featured with numerous Bai classical residences, famous local dishes - Xizhou Baba, and Bai ethnic customs and activities like Three-course Tea and Tie-dye. It’s a thousand-year historical Bai ethic ancient town that can’t be missed by tourists.
Xizhou Town is a county in the Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture located in western Yunnan Province, China. Located at only 18 kilometers north of Dali, Xizhou faces Erhai on the east and rests on Cangshan in the west.
Xizhou has been historically important as a trading post along the Tea Horse Road, it was once home to a landing strip and radio station for the Flying Tigers during WWII, has been home to notable rulers and governors of local polities past and present, and has gained notoriety in modernity for its high concentration of preserved and restored traditional Bai architecture and protected heritage sites.
-------------------⭐⭐
Shuanglang Old Town
-------------------⭐⭐
Shuanglang Ancient Village is located on the eastern shore of Erhai Lake, 36 kilometers to the north of Dali City, about 2 hours’ drive from Dali Airport.
It is backed with green mountains and faces Erhai Lake.
For over a thousand years, the local Bai Minority people here made their living fishing in the lake. However, the past 10 years have brought a change to their lives. The small tranquil village is now popular with visitors looking to unwind and enjoy a slower tempo.
Shuanglang, a fishing village with a history of over one thousand years, is located in north Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan. Facing the Erhai Lake and connecting with the Jizu Mountain, Shuanglang always offer people with its most charming sceneries. Wondering through the cobblestone-paved streets filled with old dwellings of Bai people, tourists can not only be treated with pristine sceneries but also a sense of peace.
