Dali - Part III - Late September

After leaving Wu Wei Su we had a few days until our flight to Bangkok so we went on a hike, visited our friend Ying Chang who gave us calligraphy instruction and just enjoyed the town.

This pagoda was closed and not yet open as a tourist attraction but you can still walk up to it.



Man and donkey, both wondering why we are there.


This one is for Tracey.


Some critters on the hike.


Graves up in the hills.

Ying Chang's studio.



We stayed at a hotel for Chinese, there is a separation between tourist hotels and Chinese hotels, some of which won't let you stay. We found this place by luck and a lot of walking but it was cheaper than any tourist place and we had our own room, bathroom, hot water thermos for tea and a really nice owner, Mr Lee.
