When you're tired from going out, of course you need to choose a good place to rest! The South Xinjiang Hotel is really good~

As soon as the high-speed rail enters Yunnan, the sky is clear and the sun is shining, I can responsibly say that Kunming definitely has more than just feeding seagulls, there are quite a few things to do here, if you have enough time, you can play for a day or two before going to the next destination. 🏠Accommodation: South Xinjiang Hotel The hotel is clean and safe, the location is very good, close to Cuihu Park (about 10 minutes away), you can walk to Cuihu Park-Kunming Old Street; and it takes less than half an hour to take a taxi to Kunming Station, which is very convenient for catching the high-speed rail. 🍜Food: On the way from the hotel to Cuihu Park, there is a 'Wang's Wenshan Breakfast', which is a small shop that serves chicken soup rice noodles, very authentic, good value for money. The special Yunnan crossing bridge rice noodles are eaten at the 'Fennel Yunnan Sheng' crossing bridge rice noodles across from Cuihu Park, it's worth a try👍 (if there are many people, you can go to the nearby Xilou for dinner) ⛩️Attractions: 1️⃣ Cuihu Park: I, who rarely go to parks, have a pretty good impression of Cuihu Park. In mid-February, there are quite a few seagulls in the park, you can take a boat to get close to the seagulls; the flowers in the park are also budding, it's really a full garden of spring. 2️⃣Kunming Old Street: I personally think it's just an enlarged version of Chengdu Jinli, not highly recommended haha😂, I ate a bowl of rice noodles in it, not so good. (When I was drinking coffee near Cuihu Park, I heard that there is the former residence of Wen Yiduo, I didn't have the chance to go this time, you can consider going to see it) 3️⃣Haigeng Dam: I personally think it's a must-visit place haha😆 4️⃣Haigeng Wetland Park: Not far from Haigeng Dam, after feeding the seagulls, you can stroll over, you can actually feed the seagulls in this park, but there are not as many seagulls as the dam. 5️⃣Xishan Scenic Area: 60 yuan for a one-way ticket, take the cable car across Dianchi Lake to the mountain, it is said that you can see the whole view of Dianchi Lake from Xishan, well, indeed you can see the whole view of Dianchi Lake, but the two best places on Xishan Scenic Area have been turned into paid photo platforms, other places you can see will be blocked by branches. Instead, when I was taking the scenic bus down the mountain, I saw that there were quite a few viewing platforms on the plank road, with a wide and open view. But that hike is quite long, I guess it takes more than an hour and a half to walk up. In conclusion, Kunming is an old city worth savoring carefully
