Erhai Lake, Dali, Yunnan- a chilled person’s paradise!!!

I travelled to Dali in early March - the weather is lovely during 11am-4pm (temperature will be past 20c, sunshine and a nice breeze!) and outside of those times it can get quite cold and a jacket is definitely needed.

I rented a bike for roughly RMB40 (USD6?) per day, the ballon was RMB25 and flowers also RMB25, I got the flowers from a random store near my hostel- I only got the ballon and flowers as it was really pretty but it was definitely an “aesthetic purchase.”

The bike ride was so good that I ended up doing it on 2 days as the lake is roughly 40km and since it was such a leisure ride for me I took it pretty easy. I stopped half way through at a random coffee shop on both days and hearing the sound of the lake was so peaceful whilst enjoying a piece of cake plus coffee. It’s a bit pricey for the area -coffee was around RMB50 but I’d say totally worth it for the view!#dali #dali #yunnan #erhai #erhailake #coffee #coffee
