One is location: the most suitable place to live in Dali is near the ancient city, which is hot and quiet. Because the ancient city is very small, if you want to be lively, you should go to several places with many tourists, such as foreigner street, Red Longjing and Fuxing Road. If you want to be quiet, go outside the city or in an alley hundreds of meters apart. It's a very quiet place. Moreover, the main scenic spots in Dali are near the ancient city, making it convenient to play. Other places, such as Xiaguan, Shuanglang and Cuisine, are also good places, but the selectivity is not as good as that of the ancient city. If you want to stay there for a month or two, you won't stay indoors all the time, but you will always walk around.

The second is the hotel: it depends on how much money you have. Dali is a tourist city with many hotels and inns of various grades. There are only one or two thousand inns in the ancient city, so there is a lot of choice. Every year in Dali, except for July, August and several golden weeks, it is the peak season, and other times are the off-season (relatively speaking). In the off-season inn, the price is not high, and a standard room in the ancient city is around 50 yuan. If you live only a few hundred meters away from the ancient city, then 1000 yuan is enough for one month, that is, about 30 yuan every day. But there are also high-end hotels, such as the ancient banyan hall in the ancient city. After the off-season discount, I want a standard room in 700 yuan for one day.
