In Dali, I found a secret spot with beautiful sunset views and few people

“Missing the morning glow is okay, the sunset over Erhai Lake in Dali will reward you generously!” 🌇 Today at Taoxi by Erhai Lake in Dali, I unexpectedly witnessed an unparalleled sunset. The sky gradually changed from golden yellow and pink-purple to orange-red, reflecting on Erhai Lake, looking like a dream. Even more surprising, there were almost no people here! You can arrive early, feed the seagulls at dusk, and quietly enjoy this romantic scene alone. 【Taoxi Sunset Viewing Guide】 📍 Exact location: Navigate to “Taoxi” (Huanhai West Road), near the Erhai Lake Gate. ⏰ Golden time: Personally tested, 6:10 PM - 6:40 PM is the most beautiful and colorful period! It’s recommended to arrive early. 🕊️ Atmosphere bonus: Bring some small bread pieces, the seagulls are very active at dusk, making photos super atmospheric! ✨ Experience highlights: Few people, quiet, you can take photos slowly without competing for spots, full experience satisfaction. A small regret during travel might just be setting the stage for a bigger surprise.
