Exploring Dali's Ancient Town: Yunnan's Historic Charm
Dali Ancient City , Yunnan🇨🇳 - One of China's oldest towns
My first train journey in China, travelling from Kunming to Dali, one of the oldest villages in the country. I’ll be staying in Dali Old Town on a friend’s recommendation. I am excited to explore all that this historic area has to offer. I explore the historic area, visit a traditional guesthouse, and enjoy a room tour. I discover unique sights like a 2000-year-old McDonald's and encounter elephants. My experiences include local food, such as hot pot and bubble tea. I relax and enjoy Chinese calligraphy. I visit a unique church and experience Dali's Old Town in the evening, culminating in a wild mushroom hot pot and a massage with a hair wash. The journey showcases the rich culture and charm of Dali.
