Introduction
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Xichang is known as the Sunshine City for its rich light and heat resources. It is an ideal place to watch the sunrise. The beauty of Xichang's sunrise lies not only in the change of colors, but also in its tranquility and peace. In the early morning, Qionghai Lake welcomes the shining morning light. The lake surface of the wetland park is sparkling and golden. The morning glow fills the sky in the distance, and the scenery is charming. Standing on the top of Lushan Mountain, the sun rises slowly from the east, and the light gradually fills the mountains and Qionghai Lake below. The scenery is very spectacular. As the sun gradually rises, the whole city seems to be gently awakened. The mountains in the distance, the lakes nearby, and the scattered buildings all become vivid and full of vitality under the morning light. Here you can feel this gift from nature with a sincere heart and burst out with full energy.

A tree of golden yellow warms the heart, and the garden is full of wind chimes, drunk with the light of spring

Spring days are busy with flower viewing, time flows by like water, sunlight spreads over mountains and fields, the spring breeze brushes the face, bringing endless tenderness.

Let the golden verses of the yellow bellflower trees treasure all the beautiful memories in the bottom of our hearts, accompanying us through a gorgeous spring. Along the streets, rows of yellow bellflower trees stand tall and graceful, with golden flowers blooming in competition, turning Yuehai Road into a golden 'flower road'. Although it lacks the grandeur of 'the city is full of golden armor', it has the elegance and vivacity of 'flowers seen on branches without leaves'. On the branches, each 'little wind chime' saturates itself, blooming lively under the sunlight, a large expanse of gold, the clusters of flowers on the trees sway gently with the rhythm of the breeze, each sway overflowing with the enthusiasm of spring.

Jinlin Sand beach

Jinlin sand beach is a perfect location to enjoy the sun while making sand castles next to the water body. It’s easy to find a parking and there is a shuttle service to the beach. We also enjoyed a group cycle on our way back. Though it was tough to climb, the way down was equally fun. There is also a Buddhist temple nearby, the sound of prayers are soothing and relaxing. Suggest to take along a folding tent and plenty of drinking water and snacks with you. You can also take a walk along the Qionghai sea and enjoy the greenery. #freehotelstay #beachlife

Qionghai's 'Golden Coast' - Jinlin Beach

Qionghai's 'Golden Coast' - Jinlin Beach

Heading south along the east coast of Qionghai, cycling between the mountains and the lake is refreshing, and the scene that appears next is even more eye-catching. Between the green mountains and the lake, a golden flat land lies horizontally, which is the golden coast of Qionghai - Jinlin Beach. Jinlin Beach can be described as a wonder of Qionghai. No one would have thought that such a beautiful beach could be formed on the shore of this plateau lake. Walking on Jinlin Beach, you can listen to the sound of the lake hitting the shore, and see the golden beach and the palm trees on it. Looking at the people sunbathing in swimsuits, you will think that you have come to the seaside in a trance. When you come back to your senses, you suddenly realize that the place where you are is thousands of miles away from the nearest sea, and you can't help but marvel at the magic of nature and feel more magical about the scene in front of you. The lakeshore where Jinlin Beach is located is also one of the flattest areas on the east coast of Qionghai. Not only is there a beach here, but there are also hotels and holiday resorts. If you are a self-driving tourist, it is highly recommended to drive here and stay for one or two nights. It will definitely be worthwhile.

Traveling solo, I encountered my truest self.

Traveling solo, I encountered my truest self.

I met a Didi driver in Xishuangbanna. He said, "Girl, you're traveling alone?! You must be a loner." His tone was rather judgmental. I replied, "Well, I have the time and money, so I can go wherever I want. (None of your business)" Solo travel is an experience free from scrutiny. I can wear elaborate makeup or go comfortably casual. I can bravely paddleboard or timidly watch from the shore. I can persevere to the mountaintop to see the stars or give up halfway and say "next time." No one's opinions or perspectives can sway my decisions. My own desires and feelings always take precedence. No matter how small the emotion, it is gently and properly acknowledged. In unfamiliar surroundings, it's easier to drop the mask. Perhaps because we'll eventually be lost in the sea of people, there's no need to pretend. No need to be clever, no need to be perfect. Away from the fixed tracks, order, and rules, I can confront my own kindness, naivety, gentleness, pride, selfishness, childishness, weakness, and humility. Imperfect, but good. And I forgive and accept this good self. Some say that when you travel, you can be anyone. I believe that while the narratives may differ, the core is the same. True self meets true self, sincerity meets sincerity. Resonating souls will meet in the gaps of the vast sea of people. In such intersections, farewells, and even longings, we find self-healing and healing for others. Shi Tiesheng's description is incredibly delicate: "Everything on that journey, some brushed past me and went their separate ways, while others permanently settled into my soul, carving me, shaping me, tempering me, merging with me and becoming me." Go out, see the world, see all beings, see yourself.
