China Day 3 - Dali (大理)

The 2nd day at Dali was very hot. The first place of interest that we went to was the filming city of 天龙八部. At least something that i was looking forward to at Dali but when i was there, i felt a little disappointed. It wasnt as grand as i thought it should be.

Its very near Dian Chan Shan(点苍山)








Mum wanted a picture here


Entering the city


Quite peaceful as we are the first few who got here...




This is very nice i felt..


All the props








A very cute puppy that came out to me while i was walking by the house..


Okay this look familiar...i guess i have seen this in one of the episode




The place was rather small and we didnt really explore all parts. We locate a quiet spot with nice lighting and do some portraits for one another












Next we visited the last old town of Dali before heading down to Lijiang.








Famous for silverware, this town has the most reputable silver factory..like most tour, there is a small little sales talk at this place.






Have to admit that thou this town is a little more complicated than the rest and slightly more dirty, it has its own attraction.








Don ever try this is you don like the smell of goat cheese...

One last walk before we say bye to Dali
