Reading about Dali's reputation as a charmingly laid-back backpacker center with lush surroundings, we'd jumped the gun and booked three nights at the Tibetan lodge hostel while we were still in Kunming. Perhaps we'd gotten too caught up in doing nothing, hanging out everyday in the perfect weather with our near daily Carrefour purchases of …
Dali, China
The express bus from Kunming to Dali was good with lovely views along the way and it took around 5 hrs. There were several options for decent accomodations in Dali but I could only get wifi in the room at Tibetan Lodge so that is why I chose the Lodge (70 Y without breakfast). Otherwise, there is a new Youth hostel (single room with ensuite 80y) …
Traffic, bust and dust
Dali old town was not as we might have expected 'a Chinese Disney', but more a smallish town, still genuinely old and lived in, rather than just visited by the locals. Lots of children, babies and families going to and fro on the street whereas here in Lijiang that doesn't seem to be the case.

There are two Dalis and we end up in the wrong one. Luckily the one we want is a fairly short bus ride away and so we follow the instructions given in the Lonely Planet to get there. Not for the first time, or the last, we discover that what's written in the LP is a pack of lies. Irrespective of the size of the town, the Chinese it seems are never …

TravelPod Member ReviewsTibetan Lodge Dali
Nice, welcoming comfortable what more can you ask from a lodge. The Tibetan lodge was a welcome haven after the slow train from Kunming. The beds were comfortable, the room quite small and with two teenagers in the mezzanine above us we were snug. The staff were helpful, the food at their cafe good. All in all we liked them and would come back here.
