Transportation, accommodation and precautions for traveling to Erhai Lake

Train or plane to Dali Xiaguan, and then go to Erhai by Xiaguan bus. Personally, I think the mode of transportation depends on your cost plan (including budget and time cost).

There are inns of Bai people's houses here, and there are also other styles of inns that people from all over the world come to open, ** standard rooms range from 100-150, but the sea view room with double corridors is not cheap and very popular, it is recommended to book online (where to go to the network) in advance (Haitian life is particularly popular). Then there is the hostel, which can be chosen for poor travel. Bring your own tent or something, it's up to you to like it.

Wear a hat to protect yourself from the sun and dust, because the road has been being built near Erhai Lake, and it is dusty .......

2.Clothes, short-sleeved T-shirt + long-sleeved jacket (thickened sweatshirt, or jacket can be), because of the weather, hot at noon, cold in the morning and evening, very cold.

3.Bring your camera, bring a bag, and pack it with: water, sunscreen, snacks (chocolate, beef jerky......Protect yourself from the sun at all times and replenish your energy at any time, because although Erhai Lake is only a lake, it is still very large. You may not be able to get anything to eat if you are hungry along the way.

4.Ride slowly and enjoy the scenery of Erhai Lake slowly. Passing through the village, you can go in and talk to the villagers, anyway, I was talking.

5.Some sections of the road may not have signposts, so you must plan the cycling route first: if you start from the ancient city of Dali to the north, you can see Xizhou, Shuanglang, and dig the color of the ancient town, but after passing the Shangguan, the road conditions are not good, and the Erhai Lake is becoming more and more beautiful along the bad road conditions.

It is said that starting from the ancient city of Dali to the south, the road condition is good, and after arriving at Xiaguan, the scenery of Erhai Lake is very beautiful.

6.I really can't find my way, so remember to ask someone.

Travel Tips:

Budget: There are many private boats docked at the pier, the whole boat can seat up to 20 people, the boatman offers 150 yuan, in the tourist season he will ask for 50 yuan per person, but in the off-season even a boat 120 yuan business they do.

Special reminder: Since you have come to Erhai Lake, it is recommended that tourists should arrange a little time to visit the nearby Bai fishing village, because there are few fishing villages on the plateau, not to mention that this is still a Bai fishing village! The movie "Five Golden Flowers" in the 50s of the last century reflects life here.

Where to watch Erhai Lake: There is an Erhai Lake Park in the southernmost part of Erhai Lake, which is a good place to enjoy the scenery of Cangshan and Erhai Lake.

Go farther. Don't go to such a small place. Troublesome again.

It seems better to be with a group.

Yunnan Erhai belongs to the plateau area, strong ultraviolet rays, please be sure to bring sunscreen, don't think that the sun will not be exposed in winter, you will begin to regret it after a day, in addition, the climate of Dali is dry, girls try to bring more hydration**.

Another is that some people will have altitude sickness or are not accustomed to eating and drinking, so if it is convenient, prepare a little common medicine.

Dali is like spring in all seasons, there is no obvious harsh winter and heat, and the four seasons are not very obvious. Spring and autumn, that is, March to May, September to November is the best time to visit Dali. March-May:

As sung in the song: "Dali has a good scenery in March". Not only is the temperature the most pleasant, but many festivals and events of the Bai nationality are also concentrated during this time, such as the historic Bai festival "March Street".

Dali has a good scenery in March.

The wetland ecological park invested and built by Dali City to protect Erhai Lake has beautiful scenery. It is connected to the Olympic Sports Center in the south, which is a good place for citizens or tourists to enjoy the scenery and leisure of Erhai Lake. The park is free.
