Culture & heritage · Dali base — community workshop by appointment — village lanes — Erhai-side return
Learn Bai craft between Dali and Erhai
Join a small, prearranged workshop led by Bai makers, then walk the surrounding village with interpretation of courtyard form and local livelihoods. The experience is structured as a deliberate route rather than a hurried photo stop.
Join a small, prearranged workshop led by Bai makers, then walk the surrounding village with interpretation of courtyard form and local livelihoods. Moving through Dali base, then community workshop by appointment, then village lanes, then Erhai-side return gives the visit a clear sequence and keeps the landscape, people or history connected to the activity itself.
Pay makers directly, ask before photographing processes and avoid staged home visits. Use legal lakeside transport and minimise single-use materials. Confirm the live official calendar, access, permit, weather and local safety guidance before departure, reserve any capacity-controlled element and follow instructions from guides, rangers or site staff.
