Dali Buddhist Culture Tour, Zhonghe Temple in Cangshan
Zhonghe Temple was first built during the Tang Nanzhao Kingdom period, with a history of over a thousand years. It was rebuilt during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty. After enduring wars, the Lingxiao Hall built during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty still stands. In recent years, the Wangmu Hall, Lingguan Pavilion, and Erhai Viewing Corridor have been constructed. This is an ancient Taoist temple, once granted a plaque by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty inscribed with 'Dianyun Gongqiao'. Zhonghe Temple is located at the center of the peaks of Cangshan, naturally making it the center of Cangshan and the best place to overlook the scenery of Cang'er.
From the Tianlong Babu Film City, enter the Cangshan World Geopark, hike up the mountain via Yudai Road, and arrive at Zhonghe Temple located on Zhonghe Peak. Descend along the temple path, a total of 5 hours of climbing.
Transportation: Hike or ride a horse. From Zhonghe Temple, you can take a cable car down or walk down along the mountain path.
The entire walk takes nearly 5 hours.

Cangshan Mountain in Dali
The most dangerous mountain below 5000 meters above sea level is Cangshan Mountain in Dali! This morning, I took a short walk on Cangshan Mountain, and decisively returned the same way when I saw the collapsed road section. I saw that there were tourists lost in Cangshan Mountain again. Friends who climb Cangshan Mountain must remember that Cangshan Mountain has a very high mortality rate below 5000 meters above sea level. Don't insist, go down the mountain when you should, and go home when you should.
This morning I walked to Zhonghe Temple, the tickets are cheap, and it's about 18 kilometers to the south to Gantong, a very good route. route recommendationOne mountain a week climbing tour Erhai
