You Can See Dali From Here

My current travel buddy and I decided that we will try to explore as much as we can given the time limit. However he is very mindful of my physical abilities or rather the lack of it. It is obvious to him that I won’t be able to walk further than him and basically treating my like an old man. I was grateful for his concern however I will try to push as much as I can and I won’t try to do anything dangerous. If something happens to me here no one would save me here.

The path around Cang Mountain is very easy. Most of the path is flat lands and it is protected by a fence. The determined can always try to fling themselves to their death but this is not the place to do that. The Cang Mountain has great view of the ancient town of Dali as well as the famous lake behind it – Erhai. The ear shaped lake is most visible here and it is probably the best I can see of the lake as I wasn’t able to find my way there on foot. The skies weren’t exactly crystal clear but you can still see the lake in its entirety.
