Erhai Lake
A famous plateau lake in Yunnan Province, Erhai Lake lies peacefully between Mt. Cangshan and downtown Dali. The freshwater lake takes its name from its shape which resembles a human ear, hence the word Er (which means ear in Chinese), hai meaning sea or lake. The vast blue lake is filled with crystal-clear waters and dotted with numerous white sails. When the wind rises, waves are whipped up breaking upon the shores. At night, the silvery moon sparkles on the rippling lake.
