Attractions around Dali

Lake Erhai

Lake Erhai, some 40 kilometers long from north to south and less than 10 kilometers wide, is known for a unique fishing method used by the locals. Like Arabs are fond of hunting with falcons, the Bais of Lake Erhai used captured and domesticated cormorants to catch fish. The big birds are hindered from swallowing their prey by having rings fixed around their necks.
