At the Peak of the Ancient City, Beside the Pasture: Exploring Dali’s Hidden Cloud Sanctuary

First Stop: Weiwenshan Guesthouse · Cloud Viewing Terrace
Located next to Dali Ancient City, Weiwenshan Guesthouse itself is a must-visit attraction. Its biggest highlight is the 360-degree panoramic viewing terrace on the rooftop.
· View and Photography: The terrace offers an incredibly wide and unobstructed view, allowing a full circle panorama of Cangshan Mountain, Erhai Lake, and the ancient city. Whether it’s the morning mist and light or the romantic sunset glow, this is an excellent spot for photography, easily capturing stunning shots.
· Accommodation Experience: The guesthouse rooms are cleverly designed and also offer excellent views. Staying here is like having a private high-altitude viewing platform, the perfect start to a perfect journey.
Second Stop: Ideal Bang Alpine Pasture · A Hidden Healing Place
It is recommended to drive and directly locate “Ideal Bang Alpine Pasture.”
· Scenery and Experience: Gentle alpacas and lambs stroll on the grassland, with the vast blue Erhai Lake as the backdrop. The scenery is pure and healing, instantly taking you away from the hustle and bustle and broadening your mood.
· Minimum Spend and Cost Performance: In the heavily commercialized Ideal Bang, this place is a rare sanctuary. The minimum spend is only an 18.8 yuan coffee, allowing you to sit leisurely and enjoy a quiet time away from the crowd.
Itinerary Suggestion:
In the morning, enjoy the view and take photos on the Weiwenshan Guesthouse terrace; in the afternoon, head to the alpine pasture to enjoy the pastoral leisure; in the evening, watch the sunset over Erhai Lake before happily returning. 🏨【Accommodation Recommendation】 Dali Kongxiang · Weiwenshan Guesthouse | Kongxiang Meisu | Kongxiang Dongsheng Average cost per person 100+, prices vary by location, inquiries welcome 📣【Detailed Addresses】: 384 Wenxian Road | 65 Guangwu Road | 87 Shangpingdeng Road 🌟【Highlights】: Free parking | Home theater | Erhai Lake sunrise | Natural wood style Travel Photography · Weiwenshan Designer Resort Hotel (Dali Ancient City Branch) Welfare Officer Kongxiang · Weiwenshan Designer Resort Hotel (Dali Ancient City Branch) Ideal Bang
