Dali: Slow Time at Longwei Pass

Route 1️⃣: Navigate to the intersection of Carlsberg Avenue and Zhongcheng Street, and go downhill all the way, basically ending at Heilong Bridge 🔚 Route 2️⃣: If you navigate to Longwei Pass, it will default to the vicinity of Heilong Bridge. You need to go uphill all the way, so Route 1️⃣ is more recommended for those with limited mobility or those with young children. Longwei City, also known as Longwei Pass, is located on the north bank of the Xier River in Xiaguan, extending eastward from the south slope of Cangshan Xieyang Peak to Daguan Yi Village. This is the site of the ancient Nanzhao City and the south gate of the Nanzhao capital, with important historical value. Therefore, it is recommended to learn about this history before you go, and you will have a better understanding of every brick and tile here. At present, this place has also been renovated, combining history and art. Many unique shops have been rebuilt on the basis of the original courtyards. Don't look at the small facades, but there is a different world inside. This place is not suitable for a quick visit, because it may make you feel that this is just a dilapidated coffee street. It is more suitable to slow down and relax, enter a small shop at random, read a book 📖 or just be in a daze, and bask in the sun comfortably for a day. Isn't this the embodiment of Dali's chill life? 🍂Sanqiu Dessert Shop The window seats on the first and second floors are very comfortable. The shop is not big but full of details. The cherry 🍒 cake roll is not sweet or greasy and is very delicious 😋. The children 👧 also love it ❤️ 🌿Under the Three Chun Trees at the Beginning of the Day It is a combination store of Thai hot pot, coffee, and a bookstore. The space inside is very large, and there are many spots suitable 🈴 for taking photos 📷 and checking in. It is also very suitable to order a cup of coffee ☕️ and find a book to slowly spend an afternoon. 🍒Shuitai Courtyard The entrance does not look big, but there is a different world after entering. There 🈶 is a courtyard where you can bask in the sun, 🈶 a bohemian-style large kang where you can sit cross-legged 😂, and some handmade accessories. I ordered Thai milk tea, but the taste was not very good. If you go, sisters 🉑 can avoid milk tea 🥤 and try other categories. The children love ❤️ the venue here and played for a long time. 🧩Tang Laotou Coffee ☕️ A coffee shop with both environment and products. Basking in the warm sun and having a cup of mellow coffee ☕️ will instantly relieve the fatigue of the journey and only enjoy the comfort of the moment. Of course, there are many other distinctive shops on this street to be discovered. I hope sisters who have recommendations will leave a message, and I will check in again next time ❤️
