Perfect sunshine ☀️ Perfect season 🍃
Just go to Erhai Lake and Shuanglang in Dali! This place is like a fairy-tale scenery spot~ The sunlight is gentle and not glaring, the whole town is blooming with flowers, and every snap is wallpaper-worthy 📸
🌊 Enjoy a cup of coffee while strolling by Erhai Lake
Lie back in a 180° panoramic sea view room to watch the Cangshan sunset
The sunset dyes the lake surface the color of orange soda 🌅
This is exactly how life should be~
🏠 Must-stay fairy-tale hotel recommendations:
📍 Address: East side of Yuwan Seaview Inn, Erbin Village, Dali Town, Dali City
✨ Lie back to watch Cangshan and Erhai + fall asleep to the sound of waves + have seagulls visit the terrace in the morning! This isn’t a hotel, it’s like living inside a painting~ 🖼️
💎 Lijiang
📍 Address: Mudu Village, Baisha Town, Yulong Naxi Autonomous County, Lijiang City
✨ The whole hotel is a museum! Every display is a piece of art 🎨 Traditional Naxi architecture + wild mountain secret spot, every shot is a blockbuster 📷
