Looking for more than just a quick photo stop? This day tour is for travelers who want to truly feel Dali—with all five senses. We start the day with a peaceful visit to Jizhao Nunnery, where you'll enjoy a quiet garden walk and a lovingly prepared vegetarian temple lunch. Then, we hike a scenic trail through Cangshan Mountain, from Qingbixi (Clear Jade Stream) to the legendary Zhenlong Chessboard, where martial arts myths come alive. After taking the cable car down, we end the day by the shore of Erhai Lake at Longkan Pier—sipping coffee, watching the sun over the water, and soaking in the vibe of Dali’s relaxed soul. As always, the pace is up to you: we travel slow, travel deep. This is a slow travel tour: no rushing, no pressure. You decide how long we stay at each place. My goal is to help you experience Dali with presence, peace, and connection.
