Program details

In the morning you will be collected and transferred to Cangshan Mountain, also called Diancang Mountain, was once named Xiongcang Mountain and in ancient times was called Lingjiu Mountain.


This mountain, which makes the Dali Old Town so attractive by providing a stunning backdrop, offers some great treks. In fact, Cangshan is probably Dali’s best attraction. Cangshan’s easiest walks are along Jade Cloud Path – a largely flat, paved walkway that runs north to south along the mountainside. The most common way to reach this walkway is by taking the chair lift up to Zhonghe Temple, which is just below the path. Alternatively, you can walk up the stairs behind the Dali Movie City. It’s a steep, hour-long hike up.


This stop will spend you 1.5 hrs. Afternoon, you will walk in Dali Ancient City ---is 13 kilometers (8.1 miles) away from Xiaguan in Dali City, Yunnan Province and is one of the 'Three Ancients' (Ancient Cities, Ancient Pagodas and Ancient Steles) of the Dali Scenic Spot. It can be dated back to the year 1382 during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and has been among the top listed historical cities of China since 1982. With Erhai Lake to the east, and Cangshan Mountain to the west, its grand city wall, traditional Bai ethnic minority folk houses and marvelous scenery have been attracting many visitors.


Then your next stop is THREE PAGODAS--Three pagodas, about 1 kilometer (0.6 mile) northwest of the ancient city of Dali, occupying a scenic location at the foot of Mt. Cangshan facing Erhai Lake, has a history of over 1,800 years.
