#chinatrip Zhoucheng, the “Hometown of Tie-Dye,” instantly pulled me into its colorful embrace. Nestled in the stunning Yunnan landscape, this village is a living museum of Bai culture. The vivid indigo fabrics drying in the sun create a captivating contrast against the intricately carved wooden doors and traditional architecture. I watched a local artisan carefully knotting the fabric, her hands steady with years of expertise. The tie-dye process, using natural indigo, felt almost magical as the cloth emerged from the dye vats transformed. Every pattern told a story, blending traditional Bai symbols with modern creativity. Walking through the streets, I found myself surrounded by displays of scarves, tablecloths, and vests, each more stunning than the last. It was impossible not to bring a piece of this art home, a small token of Zhoucheng’s timeless charm. Truly, a trip here feels like stepping into an art gallery under the open sky.

We were very interested in the famous Jizu Mountain in Dali, Yunnan, so we decided to go and have a look. We looked at many hotels on the platform and finally decided to stay at the Binchuan Yunzhishang Yunlian Suobinli Hotel. We thought it would be quiet outside the city and close to Jizu Mountain. After the journey, we arrived at the hotel. The hotel has a parking lot, which is very convenient. The front desk is very clean, with two rest areas, one for tea, with many kinds of tea and coffee, and the other for simple sitting and resting. The front desk lady and the boss are very polite and enthusiastic! There are also seasonal fruits to eat. I said I was going to Jizu Mountain, and they told me the specific route and helped us carry things. Then the room, the style of the room is very beautiful, very clean, the bed is very soft, and it is very comfortable to lie on! I feel that the supplies are very good. The first night of rest was very comfortable. The breakfast the next day was also very delicious. It was a buffet with rice noodles and the like. The soy milk was freshly made and very delicious! I was worried that I would not be able to go back from Jizu Mountain. The front desk lady left me a phone number and said that if I wanted to renew my stay, I could call and said that I would give me a discount. Then, I came to Jizu Mountain, and it was quite cold. If you don't want to climb, you can take the cable car. Of course, I chose to climb up, and I could slowly enjoy the scenery along the way. The trees were lush, and there were some places to rest. I could sit and rest for a while when I was tired of climbing. Finally, I got to the top, and there were quite a few people. I went up to worship the Buddha, asked for a signature, and wished myself peace and success next year. Then I took the cable car down, haha. Due to time constraints, I returned to the Binchuan Yunzhishang Yunlian Suobinli Hotel. The front desk lady introduced us to delicious food, which is a local specialty, Haishao fish, not far from the hotel, just a few steps away. The taste is really great! It is very suitable for those of us who like sour and spicy flavors. After eating, we came back and sat in the rest area to rest. The boss also made tea for us and chatted with us, and gave me seasonal fruits to eat. The sunshine rose was very sweet. When the time was almost up, we went back to the room to rest. On the third day, we left. We were very happy with this trip and the stay. Friends who want to go to Jizu Mountain or work can choose Binchuan Yunzhishang Yunlian Suobinli Hotel to experience the stay.

Jizushan Mountain, Dali - Hengyang Nunnery Hengyang Nunnery, originally named Hengyang Nunnery, is located next to the Yue Mountain Cave under the Fangguang Temple, also known as the Yue Mountain Quiet Room. Looking up, Hengyang Nunnery is connected to Huashou Gate and Fangguang Temple. As early as the Ming Dynasty, there were monks from Hengyang who built thatched cottages here. In 2003, Master Cifa of Fangguang Temple and several disciples selected the site, and in 2007, it was rebuilt as the nunnery of Fangguang Temple, with the Reception Hall, Five Views Hall, and Buddha Hall already built. There is a spring on the east side of the Reception Hall, called Liuli Spring, which is the main source of drinking water for the monks in the nunnery. There is also a stream next to the main hall, winding down, with mountains and water depending on each other, and the environment is quiet.

Jizu Mountain is really worth visiting. Highly recommended!|||This was my first time visiting Jizu Mountain. I didn't do enough research, so the trip was a bit rushed. Before going, I thought it would be similar to the temples I usually visit. But when I got there, I realized that the Buddhist atmosphere at Jizu Mountain is really strong. Recently, I've been feeling down because of work and personal life, especially work. I feel super drained and unhappy. On the way to Jizu Mountain, I was preoccupied with my thoughts and couldn't calm down to think. My mind was filled with worries. The weather was also not good in the days leading up to the trip, so I was worried about rain and brought a raincoat. But all my worries disappeared when I reached the foot of the mountain. We set off early in the morning, and the weather wasn't great. But when we arrived at Jizu Mountain, the sun came out. We took the scenic shuttle bus from the ticket office to Shizhong Temple and then climbed up. The whole process was very peaceful, and I had no distractions. Here's a summary of our itinerary: Transportation 🚗 - We started from Dali Ancient Town. It's easy to get there (we only realized this after we arrived because we took a taxi and got scammed by the driver). You can take a Didi bus from San Yue Jie Bus Station to the mountain and then take the scenic shuttle bus up the mountain. If you're driving, you can go directly to Zhusheng Temple. If you exercise regularly, you can climb from Zhusheng Temple to Jinding Temple. If you don't exercise much, I recommend taking the scenic cable car up the mountain (if you plan to walk the whole way, bring a hiking stick. The downhill path is really steep. We didn't expect it to be so steep, and our legs were shaking uncontrollably on the way down). Incense for worship 🔥 - I suggest buying incense at the foot of the mountain. You can buy a little less of the large incense, as it can only be used at Zhusheng Temple and Shizhong Temple. Bring some change. Food and accommodation - If you want to see the sunrise and sea of clouds, you can stay at the top of the mountain. But bring warm clothes, as it's really cold at the top. There are many inns at the foot of the mountain. You can buy some food to replenish your energy, like Snickers bars.

"The sword points through the clouds, and the shadow casts itself into the water palace." This is why I came to Dali. When I approached Jiuzu Mountain, I thought of a poem. One of the lines goes like this: "The sunset is infinitely beautiful, and the rocks are covered with moss." Mountain Gate｜Huideng Temple｜Tongwa Hall｜Photography Everywhere you look, you see solemn buildings and solemn palaces. It is a check-in place for many people who want to seek Buddha. · 🚗Transportation: Location Jizu Mountain ⌚Recommended play time: 3-6 days 🕰Play time: Choose by yourself - 🔎Attached is a detailed check-in guide · Jizu Mountain Hiking Guide Mountain Gate-Stone Bell Temple-Monkey Viewing Area-Xuyun Temple-Huideng Temple-Chicken Neck-Jiaye Hall-Tongwa Hall-Hua Shou Gate-Guanyin Pavilion-Jinding Temple-Zhusheng Temple Note: 🚗Dali Ancient Town to Jizu Mountain 1 hour and 30 minutes by car 1. ⏰Try to arrive at Shizhong Temple parking lot before 9 o'clock 2.

🤭After three years of visiting Chicken Foot Mountain, I finally figured out the route without self-driving❗ 📍Departing from Kunming, take the high-speed train🚄 ⚠️Key points Option 1️⃣ Take the high-speed train directly to Dali Station, then go to the Dali Bus Station opposite the high-speed train station to take the direct bus to Chicken Foot Mountain, which takes about 2.3h‼️ However, there are no direct buses after 11:00 am. If you miss it, you'll have to take a bus to Binchuan first, then from Binchuan Bus Station to Chicken Foot Mountain, which might take 3～4h+, basically spending the whole day on the road. Option 2️⃣ Take the high-speed train to Xiangyun Station, then take a bus from Xiangyun to Binchuan, and transfer to Chicken Foot Mountain. I haven't tried this duration, but it is the recommendation from local bus drivers, and it indeed looks more direct on the map, avoiding backtracking and possibly saving some time. 🏠Regarding accommodation, there are two options. Option 1️⃣ You can stay on the mountain, where there are many small guesthouses, making it easier to climb the mountain the next day. Option 2️⃣ Stay at Siqian Village at the foot of the mountain, where I recommend a guesthouse‼️ It's operated by locals, the owners are very friendly and enthusiastic, the room environment is also quite good, and the key point is‼️ you can also dine in the guesthouse, and the food prepared by the lady boss is so delicious, fried potatoes p6 are a must-order for us every time, this time we also had sea bass p7 (the dipping sauce for the sea bass is superb p8‼️), boiled rice noodles p9 are all delicious, no disappointments, and reasonably priced. The next day, the owner will use their own car to take us up the mountain close to the sightseeing bus station, so no worries there. ⛰️Regarding climbing the mountain Option 1️⃣ Sightseeing bus🚌-Cable car🚡-Walk a short distance to reach the Golden Summit Temple (mountaintop), both ways are possible. Option 2️⃣ Walk up the mountain, it takes 4-5h to reach the Golden Summit if starting from the ticket office, or 2-3h from the sightseeing bus station (near Shizhong Temple). 🌿Go breathe in nature with a devout heart

Fairyland-level beautiful scenery, and the climate is very pleasant! Dali in summer really fulfills all my travel fantasies! This time I went to Wulong Dam and encountered a clear sky after the rain.

Even in the peak season, there are not many people, it's so wonderful to have close contact with nature, it's especially suitable for people like us who like light hiking! 🚗Transportation: Navigate to 'Shangyangliu Village', when you start to climb the mountain, you will pass a Dali Sanfeng Renewable Energy Waste Treatment Plant, at this time you will see the windmill, after this place there is a fork in the road choose the right road and keep going up, it is estimated that it will take about 30 minutes to arrive! Never navigate to Wulong Dam! It takes about an hour to depart from Dali Ancient City. The road conditions are not bad, just there are many bends in the mountain road, the road is a bit narrow, remember to drive slowly if you drive yourself.

The town is located in the southeast of Binxian County, home to more than 10 ethnic groups such as Hui and Naxi. It is in the subtropical winter-dry and summer-wet low-latitude plateau monsoon climate zone, with mild winters and summers, abundant sunlight, rich heat, obvious vertical climate, beautiful natural scenery, and rich products. In 2010, it was awarded the honorary title of 'China's Historical and Cultural Famous Town'. The ancient town, also known as 'Bai Xia City', was named for the spectacular sight of white clouds. The ancient city was built in the seventh year of Hongzhi of the Ming Dynasty (1494 AD), with city towers built above the four gates, and moon cities outside the north and south gates, and corner towers at each corner of the city. The city wall was repaired several times during the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty, the Guangxu period, and the Republic of China. After liberation, most of the city wall was demolished, and now about 200 meters of the city wall is well preserved, and the heavy city bricks 'Xianfeng Second Year Zhizhou Zao', 'Cao' and other characters are still clearly visible. The ancient city is a square chessboard layout. The center of the cross street is built with a four-story hexagonal spire over the street bell and drum tower, also called Binxing Tower, which dominates the whole city. In addition to the bell and drum tower, the ancient city also preserves a large number of ancient architectural groups and ancient residential buildings from the Ming, Qing, and Republic of China periods, such as the Confucian Temple, the Martial Temple, the City God Temple, the Martyrs' Shrine, the Guanyin Pavilion, the Baoguo Temple, the Wenchang Palace, the Nanxun Bridge, the Catholic Church, the Sichuan Guild Hall, and the Bishan Academy. The Martyrs' Shrine and the Bice Academy, the Confucian Temple and the Martial Temple and the Catholic Church, the Guanyin Pavilion and the Wenchang Palace and the Baoguo Temple are arranged in groups. The ancient city, west, south, and north streets still maintain the ancient style, with ancient residential buildings lined on both sides, and the ancient style remains. At present, the entire city basically maintains the ancient city layout of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In Binxian ancient city, small shops and stalls doing small businesses such as pushing light lacquer, cloth shoes, paper cutting, moon cakes, bowl baldness, etc. are scattered in the streets and alleys of the ancient city, with a variety of tourist products dazzling. The city has experienced vicissitudes and changes. The ancient road is very narrow, but very clean, exuding a strong history, slowly flowing, as if it has settled too many stories and become a bit heavy. Binxian, Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture

Jizu Mountain is one of the top ten famous Buddhist mountains in China, and it is a Buddhist holy land in South Asia and Southeast Asia. It is named for its "three peaks in the front and one ridge in the back, just like a chicken foot". When worshipping at Jizu Mountain, it was the first time I saw a temple put a large pile of free incense for self-service. The fortune-telling sign only costs ¥3 and the written sign costs ¥6. Buddha also saves the poor. When you are in line for fortune-telling, be sure to look up at the Golden Dome Temple. The pagoda will move with the clouds and it is very sacred. The signs of Jizu Mountain are very effective. I have been there for three years in a row, and my luck has been rising, which is very magical. The scenery on the top of the mountain is very beautiful. You can overlook Binchuan, and if the angle is right, you can even see Erhai Lake. There are steps all the way for hiking, which is quite friendly. It takes about 5 hours. If you can't walk, you can also take the cable car directly. Buddhist worship Tips: ⚠When entering the temple door, always step in with your left foot and step out with your right foot. ⚠Bring cash, fortune-telling signs, and written signs only accept cash.

For an amazing, far off the beaten track route to Jizushan near Dali, use Komoot maps and take the shortest route from Wasezhen. It’s unforgettable and does not disappoint. The first half of the route is great on an electric unicycle, but the second half is hiking only, on small narrow and rocky trails. But reaching the mountain top temple in this way, is truly amazing. After leaving the main road there’s a wide, old cobbled road which later turns into a one metre cobbled horse path. maybe you could teach this trailhead by car. The remaining 10km or so to the top, would still be fantastic. Only for the highly adventurous…#dali #wasezhen #jizushan #adventure #unicycle #euc #temple

There are many good photos around Dali. Today I recommend Haidong's Wulongba Meadow There are windmills and meadows here, as well as groups of cattle and sheep. The key is that no tickets are required. Super suitable for taking pictures due to undeveloped, so the average tourist rarely goes. It takes about two hours to drive from Dali. Its not far from it, but its all about Panshan Road, so you have to go for a while. It is recommended to take pictures in the morning. In the afternoon, the wind will be very big. There are very few restaurants on it. It is recommended to bring some snacks in the past, but remember to take away the garbage when you go. Traffic mode: self-driving direct navigation: Wulongba meadow
