It has four floors and seven rooms, all with floor-to-ceiling windows, offering an unobstructed view of Erhai Lake and Cangshan Mountain. 🍃In the center of the courtyard stands a century-old banyan tree, with branches extending to every corner of the interior space. 🪸Many ethnic decorations adorn the staggered stairs, steps, and platforms... 🪨The natural stone materials, orange tables and chairs, green leaves, and blue Erhai Lake (on sunny days) achieve a harmonious coexistence here. ☕Here, a lounge chair, a cup of coffee, and a dessert make for a wonderful afternoon. 🆓Free Reservation: ⏰️Every day at 12:00 noon and 24:00 midnight, the releases free visit slots for the next day, with 60 slots each time, totaling 120 slots per day. ⏰️Free opening hours are from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, with each time slot lasting 30 minutes (a guide will lead the tour and provide free explanations.

🌟"The beauty of Dali lies in Cang'er, and the beauty of Cang'er lies in Shuanglang" 🌟What to play? 1⃣️ Yuji Island: One of the three islands around the sea, it is a must-visit spot in Shuanglang Town. Yang Liping's Sun Palace is right next to Yuji Island, just a little ahead. It's great for taking photos (reservation needed, or afternoon tea). 2⃣️ Nanzhao Customs Island: Customs Island and Yuji Island are the two famous islands in Shuanglang. You need to take a boat to get there. Just go to the pier and buy a ticket (the ticket includes a round-trip boat ticket, 50 per person). 3⃣️ Kuixing Pavilion: The structure is a three-story wooden building built in the third year of the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty and renovated during the Republic of China. It is located on the right side of a street in the ancient town of Shuanglang. 4⃣️ Shuanglang has more homestays, cafes, and restaurants. The decorations are beautiful and each has its own style. The beautiful places in Shuanglang are not in the alleys but in the shops, so it is recommended to spend a day choosing a seaside cafe or homestay to relax. Lie on the sofa to watch the sunrise and sunset, and feed the Siberian seagulls on the balcony. 🌯Food: Grilled milk fan, grilled rice cake, Yangbi rolled powder, pea jelly rice noodles, grilled rice noodles, flower cake. I really like the rose sauce of the grilled milk fan and a Yangbi rolled powder shop in the ancient town. Remember to check out several shops when buying flower cakes, as the prices vary. 🚗How to get there? 1⃣️ Erhai is long-shaped, with Dali Ancient City in the southwest and Shuanglang in the northeast. It is recommended to spend two days playing, with one day of accommodation in Shuanglang to enjoy the slow time. 2⃣️ There is a one-way bus around the sea from Dali Ancient City to Shuanglang, which is more cost-effective than taking a taxi. 3⃣️ You can also rent a car to go. ⚠️Hi, I am Miaojang who loves traveling~ Take you to dreams and faraway places!

You can also go to the cliff by the sea, but be careful, there's no fence, be careful not to fall into the water. 3️⃣ Drink coffee On the way to the Sun Palace, in the alley by the seaside, there's a coffee shop, 28 RMB per person, enjoying the sea breeze, drinking coffee, very pleasant, and there are swings, flowers, and other photogenic props, it's quite comfortable to sit there in the afternoon. 4️⃣ Take photos in the flower sea Navigate to Nanzhao Island, don't take a boat to the island, the road is covered with a beautiful sea of flowers. From 3 pm to 5 pm, you can capture the sparkling sea, and if you're not in a hurry, you might as well wait for the sunset, it's really super beautiful.

I had been to Dali before, but since I couldn't get a free ticket to the Sun Palace, I just took photos outside and left with regret. This time, I finally got a ticket to the Sun Palace and arrived as scheduled at 9 am. Even though I had watched the video of Lu Yu interviewing Yang Liping and followed the camera for a tour, it was still not as shocking as being there in person. The Sun Palace is beautiful everywhere! Its beauty is natural: cliffs, ancient trees, so naturally integrated with the courtyard; its beauty is rough: the furniture is made of old ship wood, and the paths are paved with bluestone; its beauty is artistic: handmade table flags, paintings by Bai ethnic old artists; its beauty is delicate, every jar and vase with water has fresh wildflowers floating in it... Designer Zhao Qing understands Teacher Yang, the natural fusion of modern and rustic, art and luxury, presenting a kind of beauty that is pleasing to the eye and breathtaking.

|The artistic paradise of Yuji Island in Shuanglang. 🦚 On Shuanglang Yuji Island, the Sun Palace is like a dreamy fairyland, retaining the original interior decoration of teacher Yang Liping's daily life. Walking through it, you will be attracted by the ancient tree in the middle, as if you are in a paradise🌳. The whole building is well-proportioned, with stairs crisscrossing like a maze, and each floor is full of stone and ethnic colors and elements. The artists' works are dotted throughout, making the entire space full of aura. Not only that, the waterside terrace also attracts seagulls🐦. Playing with them and feeling the beauty of nature can make people feel relaxed and relieve all stress. 🆓 Want to visit the Sun Palace for free?

I came to the Sun Palace for its reputation, especially for Yang Liping's fame. I heard that this place is particularly beautiful. It's really as good as its reputation, the overall design is so beautiful, there are many objects in each small room, but you don't feel crowded. Each room and each floor is different, the famous designer's design is different. You can make a free reservation for a free visit in the morning one day in advance, and you will be given a scarf as a small gift. After 12 o'clock is the consumption time, each person is 128 yuan, I think it is worth it, you can't see the sunset for free.

Yang Liping's Sun Palace Art Space is a residence built by Yang Liping in 2000, named the Sun Palace. The construction of the Sun Palace took 5 years. During the construction process, the designer integrated the architectural features of the Bai ethnic group's residences with Yang Liping's personal aesthetics, creating a building that integrates architectural art, space art, and life art. In 2017, Yang Liping, in order to support the Dali Prefecture government's protection of Erhai Lake, transformed the Sun Palace into an art space for the public to visit for public welfare. The Sun Palace is built on the mountain, with varying heights. The gate is built in a position halfway up the mountain according to the veins of the mountain stones. During the actual construction process, the building materials were cut to preserve the integrity of the rocks.
