Features: Stirred by the bell sounds of temples, crossing over rolling mountains like ripples. Winding along the desolate ancient roads, entangled in sweet villages. Lying prostrate at the foot of Ji Shan shrouded in incense smoke. Wandering through the streets and alleys of the old capital of the ancient country, obsessed with hearing the old tales and lingering dreams, lost in reverie. Traveling, sometimes we are exhausted, sometimes we endure hardships, sometimes we move forward alone, even falling into the world of hardship. But, joy always returns, it always strikes you at the right place and time, hitting your soft spots. In the newly published "The Adventures of a Traveler in Dali," the authors call that place Dali and call such sentiments "Noble Spirit, Tender Heart"—the unique temperament of Dali, just such a temperament, perfectly striking me.
