#cherryblossom25 Dounan Wetland, Kunming in Spring has a gentle, refreshing vibe that feels like a breath of fresh air. The area is filled with soft sounds—birds chirping, water flowing, and leaves rustling in the breeze.

Kunming's winter is like autumn The bald cypress, Chinese swamp cypress, and dawn redwood are all red and golden It's like a grand color feast... I love Kunming's winter, it's romantic, warm, and healing~ . 📍Location Gate 6/East Gate of Dounan Wetland Park 🔺Walk in the direction of the parking lot from the East Gate entrance 🔺This route is for viewing the mangroves, seagulls, and sunset, no need to turn back! 🔺Dounan Wetland Park can be visited together with Dounan Flower Market!

The romance of Kunming today is brought by the sunset! ! 🌆 Today I went to Dounan Wetland. Sitting on the lawn, listening to a young man playing guitar and singing. Accompanied by the sunset and the "sea breeze". Just the right amount of romance! The temperature is high during Lesser Heat and people tend to get irritated easily. Keep a calm mind and feel cool. Eating fruits and vegetables regularly is the most effective way to reduce internal heat and relieve summer heat. Drink more tea and take showers frequently to lower your body temperature and avoid heatstroke. I’d like to give you a small blessing, and wish you a happy and cool Lesser Heat!

Dou Nan Wetland Park: Every time I go there to watch the sunset, it feels like a scene straight out of a movie—dreamy and romantic! Additionally, the park is super close to Dou Nan Flower Market, so you can totally visit the flower market after watching the sunset! You won't regret this itinerary! . 📍Location Navigation Dou Nan Wetland Park (Follow the road near the park's parking lot, keep walking until you see buildings 🏘️, then take the road on the right side of the buildings) . ⏰ Best Time for Photography It's recommended to arrive around 6 PM! . 📷 Photography Tips 1️⃣ Face away from Dianchi Lake for a super artistic vibe~ 2️⃣ Take more empty shots and stitch them together for a more story-like feel~ 3️⃣ Combine close-up and distant shots for a nicer effect! 4️⃣ Take photos of the boardwalk first, then the beach—it's absolutely stunning!!! 5️⃣ Ladies, it's recommended to wear beautiful dresses for a more atmospheric photo!

Day 1 Depart from Nanjing✈️, arrive at Kunming Changshui International Airport at about 11:00 pm, take a taxi directly to the B&B (about half an hour, 70 yuan), pack up and go to bed 🏠🏠The B&B is located near Tangzi Lane (Pictures 2-4) Advantages: It is very close to the subway station/Nanqiang Pedestrian Street/Kunming Old Street, which makes it convenient to travel. The room is very clean and there is a small balcony for taking photos. In addition, the landlord also prepared disposable bath towels. It is really nice. good Disadvantages: The soundproofing is not very good, I will be woken up at around 7 o'clock in the morning, and there is no elevator on the second floor (the landlord has rooms on the first floor, but I think the second floor has better sunlight) Day 2 I got up around 10:00, washed and put on makeup, took a taxi to Kunming Old Street (it's not far to walk, but I didn't want to walk, the taxi price was too high), went shopping and ate. The Daishe Snacks Research Institute recommended by everyone was closed, so I didn't get to eat there. I tried it 🍲 The bean curd rice noodles (Figure 5) and Jiahua flower cakes were both average. 13:30 After lunch, walk to Duiyue Tower to check in, and then walk all the way to Cuihu Lake (I originally wanted to ride a bike 🚲🚲, but it’s hard to ride uphill on the old street! It takes more than ten minutes to walk there) It is very pleasant to stroll around Cuihu Lake, sit by the lake, enjoy the breeze and take photos! But I feel so tired after walking for a long time! ! Around 15:30, we came out of Cuihu Lake and took a taxi to Dounan Wetland Park. There was no need to go so early to watch the sunset. We waited until 6:30 or 7:00 (Picture 12). If you want to go to the beach, you can go directly Go to the Wangguan Wetland Park next to it. I walked for a long time in Dounan Wetland but couldn't find it. 19:00 Take a taxi from Dounan Wetland to Dounan Flower Market (Picture 13) It was very lively, there were lots of flowers, and the prices were very cheap, but I couldn’t take them all away myself, and I didn’t think it was cost-effective to mail them and pay the shipping fee, so I only bought a wreath (Figure 14). I must buy big flowers! It makes your face look small and looks good in photos! And it's only 5 bucks💰💰, so sad After walking around Dounan Flower Market, I chose a mushroom hotpot nearby. I really couldn't get used to it. The set meal cost 146 yuan and had 8 kinds of mushrooms, but my sister and I couldn't get used to it. 21:00 Take a taxi back to the B&B Day 3 I woke up naturally, packed up and checked out, and went to a random rice noodle shop near the B&B again 🍲🍲 (Picture 16). This time it felt okay, but not amazing. 12:00 Take a taxi to Kunming Station and set off for Dali~~~ Kunming part is finished✔️✔️✔️ I'll update after I finish the Dali part. By the way, I'd like to ask about the delicious food in Dali. It will rain tomorrow so I probably won't go to Erhai Lake.

I love Kunming so much, I am immersed in the beautiful scenery and slow-paced life of this city. The streets and alleys here are full of scenery, the lakes and mountains by the Dianchi Lake are refreshing. The sun shines through the leaves onto the stone road, the breeze brushes my face, I feel the warmth and tranquility of this city. The people living here are leisurely, their pace is slow but firm, they bask in the sun, enjoying the gifts of nature, I also slowed down, tasting the beauty of life with the locals. In Kunming's City walk, I found tranquility and comfort, which healed and relaxed my soul.
