Kunming

Kunming has a stone forest that features lots of bizarrely-shaped stones.

The ethnic village of Kunming can be described as a major tourist destination in the country. It takes only about ten minutes to walk from the ethnic village. It feels great. It is a gathering of the villages of 26 ethnic minorities in Yunnan.  Different styles of villages are scattered and distributed, and the unique geographical advantages of Kunming in spring city form a multi-ethnic small world with water and land, fresh and elegant. Along the way, there are green trails, the pavilions, the stone steps of the arch bridge, and the scenery is very pleasant.

Dianchi Lake, also known as Kunming Lake, is the largest freshwater lake in Yunnan and the sixth largest freshwater lake in China. Located at the foot of Xishan Mountain, Dianchi Lake is distributed in a north-south direction, just like a crescent moon, embedded in the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.  Two hundred million years ago, Dianchi Lake and its neighbouring areas rose from the bottom of the sea for the last time and gradually rose to the plateau. After the influence of the Himalayan orogeny, the ancient Dianchi was born. It was deep and wide and won the plateau pearl's reputation.  Ping Xiang sing warm Pan Yunjin fishing songs along the waterfront. The weather is often like February and March, and the flowering branches continue to bloom. Outside the hills and the Qingshan Building, the white clouds are going around, it seems that it is not wandering in the sky, but floating above the Bohai Sea, the lakes and mountains.

Cuihu Park is one of the most beautiful parks in downtown Kunming. It used to be a lake in Dianchi Lake, and later became a clear lake due to the drop in the water level. Every winter, a large number of red-billed gulls fly here to spend the winter. I had received a red-billed gull from a college roommate in the winter. It was very cute. We didn’t get to see the cute red-billed gull. Cuihu Park is not big, it can be toured for an hour or so. No tickets, free entry and exit, direct bus from the train station. It takes only ten minutes to walk from Cuihu Park and follow the navigation to Yunnan University.

DAY 3 Stone Forest - Puzhehei (260km)  Today's main trip is the Shilin Scenic Spot in Yunnan. It is the first time I have come to Yunnan and the first time I am visiting visit Shilin Scenic Spot. Shilin is really stunning and worthy of being a world-class cultural heritage. It is much bigger than the stone forest I imagined. There is a battery car in the scenic spot, which is especially suitable for lazy people like me (the ticket is not expensive, the pass is only 25), and there are also special performances of the local Yi people in the scenic spot. The entire scenic spot was completed in about 3 hours. We came out to eat the local special food in Shilin County, and then drove directly to Puzhehei, and arrived in Qiubei County in 3 hours.

During my 2nd visit to Kunming

Located in the west of Wuhua Mountain in Kunming City, Cuihu is the central sightseeing spot of the city. Because of its eight-faced water, four seasons bamboo green, spring and summer Liu Cui, it is called "Cuihu [1]". "Ten acres of lotus fish world, half city Yangliu Fulou", Cuihu is known as the "Emerald" inlaid in Kunming City. Before the Yuan Dynasty, the water level in Dianchi Lake was high. It is also a small lake bay outside the city. It is called rice fields, vegetable gardens and lotus ponds. Li Zhuan's "Cai Hai Xing" poem said: "Kunming pool water three hundred miles, vegetable sea and one of them. The country's dragons and dragons caves ..." The spring water from the lake, directly into the Dianchi. Because there are nine springs in the northeast, they merge into a pool, also known as the "Kowloon Pool." In the early years of the Republic of China, it was transformed into a garden. The park was planted with willow trees. There were a variety of camellia in the lake, and it was known as the Cuihu.

Look at the delicious buns and find out. In Hong Kong, the Haitang Dam in Kunming feeds the red mouth, I finally sell the bread to pull it, hahaha, its fun. came to Kunming, we chose to play in Dianchi without hesitation, and gave up the Green Lake Park directly. This decision is really true. We live near Kunming Station, take a taxi to Dianchi Lake, about half an hour away, and locate it at Haishu Dam. When you go to the dam to see a piece of red-billed gull, its almost You can get off the bus. The Dam does not require tickets. Going forward there is also a Haitang Park with some mobile games for kids to play. If you are interested, you can also go shopping. After getting off the bus, you can buy a bag of small bread to feed the red-billed gull, and of course to take pictures. When feeding bread, just wait patiently with the bread, and the red-billed gull will come and eat it. The first half of the dam is relatively many people, and there are many red-billed gulls. If too many people do not take good-looking photos, dont worry, some people will be less when they go forward. When photographing the red-billed gull, the red-billed gull flew over from Siberia for the winter, and soon they will leave, so the friend who wants to see the red-billed gull has to hurry and go, I wish you good luck.

Yunnan Dongchuan Red Land is considered by experts to be the most imposing red land in the world except Brazil's Rio de Janeiro, and its sight is more magnificent than the Brazilian red land. The main scenic spot is the Sedan Snow Mountain (you can see the rhododendrons in the foot of the mountain in May), the morning glow to the Makankan, the colorful slopes, the splendid garden, the music spectrum concave, the Shenshu and the Luoxiagou. I think the most beautiful thing is the Luoxiagou, which is colorful and is a godsend. Traffic: There are 2 ways to go to Kunming to the red land to see the flower town. 1) Dongchuan is 80KM from Kunming. From Kunming, you need to go to Kunming North Bus Station, 7:50 every morning. At 8:30, there are 2 classes to the legal person's car (will pass through the red land), you tell the ticket seller to be OK under the red land, about 5 hours. 2) If your time to the North Station is later than 8:30, you can choose to go to Dongchuan County (the Kunming North Railway Station has a lot of trains, there are private cars to choose, the price is slightly more expensive than the bus), and then turn The French car went to the red land. Dongchuan goes north again and can go to Zhaotong Dashanbao, where there are black-necked cranes and clouds.
