Dali can be said to be a place you are willing to visit again no matter how many times you go! I have climbed the famous Cangshan Mountain countless times. I've hiked up there and also taken the cable car. Cangshan Mountain, which means lush green, is also known as Diancang Mountain. In ancient books, it is also called Diancang Mountain, Xiongcang Mountain and Dali Mountain. The Cangshan Mountain recorded in "Manshu" written by Fan Chuo of the Tang Dynasty is: "The top of the mountain is thousands of feet high, and the stone edges are green and blue." Therefore, Cangshan means the mountain and the rocks are green and blue. There are many temples in Cangshan Mountain, and each temple can be said to have its own unique style and attractions. The more famous ones include: Chongsheng Temple, Gantong Temple, Wuwei Temple, Tianzhu Temple, and Polo Temple. It is now popular to climb Cangshan Mountain to pray for blessings and to eat vegetarian meals in temples. Today, let’s check in at the temple covered with flowers - Jizhao Temple. 📍Detailed address: Dali City--In the Cangshan Scenic Area 🚗Transportation strategy: Self-driving navigation to [Cangshan Geopark] paid parking Then walk up the mountain from the park gate for about 30-40 minutes ⏰Best time: 8:00-17:30 (Recently, there are fewer people.) 💰Ticket price: No admission fee | Vegetarian meal ¥20/person (half price for children under seven, and the bowls are also small) | Free stamping (there are also cultural and creative shops selling all kinds of peripherals) 🌟Highlights: The whole temple is not big, but it is surrounded by flowers. Large areas of carefully cultivated succulents 🎍, the rose garden on the back mountain, although they have not bloomed yet, it can be seen that the scale of the blooming is definitely colorful. [Sky Fish Pond], looking up at the fish is also a different experience. 📌Practical tips: The vegetarian meal starts between 11:00 and 11:30. If you go early, you can queue up first. When there are many people, there may not be enough seats. The stamps in the picture were stamped in a small shop on the right side of the entrance.
