When I arrived at Xizhou, the first thing I saw was that the two branches and leaves at the head of the village were more numerous than the trees. This is a rare tree in northern China, commonly known as evergreen, scientific name is alpine banyan. Bai people believe that Daqing Tree is a symbol of the prosperity of a village, so it is also called "Fengshui Tree". Daqingshu is an ancient Bai village with its own geomantic trees. The trees usually form a group activity center with the stage for villagers. The two trees at the head of Xizhou village are very old. Legend has it that there are two trees with one Yin and one yang, one sprouting and the other deciduous leaves, which start again and again and flourish alternately, one bearing fruit and the other never bearing fruit. During the interval of work, villagers often take a nap under the trees; the long serpent-like procession around the village revels around it; even when the village dies, the funeral crowd will also circle around it and burn the paper covers under the trees in order to support the dead's attachment to the village. Not far from the village in the Northeast corner, there is also an old lady green tree. When autumn comes, there are always snow-white heron storks, which is a unique landscape of Xizhou. Sifang Street, Xizhou repression center, is a small square surrounded by shops. Here stands a stone square, which is the "Civilization Square" built in recent years. The original Stone Square in this place was called "Tianming Square" built after several Jinshi in the town of Ming Dynasty. At that time, all villagers who gained fame in the imperial examination were likely to engrave their names. Now Xizhou is the place where administrative divisions suppressed the expropriation of government, but in history it has a city size. As early as before Nanzhao migrated to Erhai, this was the settlement of Bai ancestors "Heman". At that time, it was called Dali City. The inhabitants already had many Nikkei scriptures. Legend has it that Shi Wanshi, a general of Sui Wendi Emperor, had a soldier and horse here. It was also called Shicheng. The nearby Pingba Zi was called "Shilai" (the same meaning as Dian Advertising State). When Nanzhaomo arrived, the palace was built here. The pattern of the city can be traced from the current place names. There are village names such as the north, East and south of the city. In the past, archaeologists have excavated the word tiles, thick cloth tiles and lotus tiles in Nanzhao.

    Xizhou Ancient Town is an ancient town with a low degree of commercialization around the Bohai Sea in Dali. You can see the original Bai people's houses and understand Bai culture. In addition, the corner building is also a local feature, and the overall feeling is good.

    On the periphery of Xizhou Ancient Town, there is a large green field. It is a shooting place for net reds. Feel the strong pastoral atmosphere in the country fields. It is a leisure time worth staying in Xizhou Ancient Town. Take photos here, drink a cup of afternoon tea, bask in the warm sun, and empty everything. In addition, there are old buildings at the corner of the net red nearby, pay attention to look up.

    The ancient town is the same, but Xizhou's slow pace is really comfortable. Look at the wind and wheat waves, look at the rapeseed fields, all the way is different scenery, Xizhou-rose stuffing is more classic. Just buy one, no need to try other.

The decoration of the store is very distinctive. It is very suitable for 📷 to take pictures. It is worthy of such a high evaluation. It can be regarded as a real name, the service that will be recommended to friends is very good, and it is also equipped with professional guidance, a sense of security 🈶️ Good location, convenient travel, and the coupons for group purchases are also very cost-effective, I recommend everyone to experience!

    When you come to Dali, Xizhou is a must. If you have enough time, it is also a good choice to stay in Xizhou for a few days. The rice fields seem to be the sign here, and the corner building is also going to check in. In fact, Xizhou life is very slow, you can sleep until you wake up naturally, and then go to eat a breakfast and lunch at 10 o'clock, stroll around the village for a long time, see the clean streets, ancient houses, eat a Xizhou, very comfortable.
