At Dali Pomegranate Seaview Boutique Hotel (Shuanglang Erhai Branch) by Erhai Lake
Stunned by the scenery outside the window✨
🌊 Ultimate guide to a stunning experience:
1️⃣ Scenic Buffs stacked up
- 180° direct view of Erhai Lake: pull open the smart curtains in the room, and Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake come at you like a giant movie screen
- Best viewing spot: private terrace/balcony in the room (recommended to shoot the sunrise at 7 AM, the backlit silhouette is breathtaking)
- Hidden photo spot: private balcony + greenery, instantly transform into a Greek goddess wearing a bright-colored dress
2️⃣ New interpretation of Bai ethnic aesthetics
• Pure white buildings scattered like works of art
• The designer put surprises at every corner, the heart-shaped cave is especially unique and exquisite💕
• The mix of original wood furniture and modern smart devices (electric toilet is super thoughtful) in the room feels perfectly harmonious
📸 Tips for photo perfection:
• Outfit suggestion: white long dress + straw hat is a must👒, sunny days with Erhai blue are perfect
• Golden hour: 4-6 PM (the light is the gentlest)
• Must-shoot scenes: afternoon tea on the balcony ☕️, sparkling water surface under the sunset
🌟 Value-added service experience:
• Professional travel photography service available, the photographer is great at finding angles🎞️
• Afternoon tea desserts are both beautiful and delicious, highly recommend the tiramisu
🚗 Nearby activity guide:
- 30-minute walk to Shuanglang Pier, very convenient to take a boat to Nanzhao Style Island
- There is a sightseeing bus stop around Erhai Lake right at the inn’s entrance
- Evening stroll to Shuanglang Ancient Town (less crowded and more charming than Dali Ancient City)
💡 Practical tips:
• Room selection tip: Honey Joy 308 sea view room has the widest view
• Transportation reminder: about 1 hour by taxi from Dali Station, ride-sharing is recommended for better cost efficiency
• Hidden perk: travel photography service can also provide small dresses👗
