Dali was once the capital city of Nanzhao Regime and Dali Regime in the ancient China with picturesque scenery.
Cangshan Mountain
The peaks are overgrown with primeval forests, and 18 springs and streams filled with crystal-clear waters.
Erhai Lake
Wind rising, waves are whipped up breaking upon the shores; at night, the silvery moon sparkles on the rippling lake.

As an ancient capital city, Dali is studded with numerous historical sites besides the stunning natural sceneries.
Dali's name appeared on foreign tourist maps earlier than Kunming, Yunnan's capital city. Ambassadors from 70 countries bring their families to Dali for summer vacation.
