Answering the call of the wind, I've come to Kunming

Everyone should have a spontaneous trip at least once.

It feels like stepping into a portal to another world - nature here is breathtaking‼️ ❤️Erhai Lake: The beauty of Dali's Erhai Lake is the kind you fall in love with at first sight. There are many small towns and villages around Erhai, such as Shuanglang Ancient Town and Cai Village, full of rich local atmosphere. Here, you can slow down and enjoy leisurely time. You can walk by the lake, ride bicycles, go boating, or stay at a characteristic inn, waking up to birdsong every morning, watching the sun slowly rise, and feeling the peaceful passage of time. ❤️Hundred-acre Flower Sea: When vast fields of lavender sway gently in the wind, that dreamy purple ocean instantly creates a magical atmosphere, with romance levels off the charts💕 Wear a white dress, put on a straw hat, and every casual photo will be stunning - you'll be collecting likes on social media like nobody else! ❤️Dali Ancient Town: Dali Ancient Town, this ancient city that has witnessed countless love stories through the ages.🏰 Walking on the bluestone paths with traditional Bai architecture on both sides, it's like traveling through time back to an era when carriages moved slowly, letters traveled far, and a lifetime was just enough to love one person. ❤️Jade Dragon Snow Mountain: Jade Dragon Snow Mountain's thirteen snow peaks stretch continuously, like a giant dragon soaring - it's spectacular! You must visit Glacier Park, where the large cable car takes you straight to the heart of the snow mountain, allowing you to touch thousand-year-old glaciers, surrounded by clouds and mist as if entering a fairyland🌫️ There's also Spruce Meadow, a grassland embraced by snow mountains, romantic and healing, where every casual shot is a masterpiece📷 Don't miss Blue Moon Valley, where the lake water shines like a jewel with captivating brilliance in the sunlight. ❤️Blue Moon Valley: Blue Moon Valley is a hidden paradise at the foot of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. The lake water displays a dreamy Tiffany blue due to minerals, looking like jewels embedded in the valley on sunny days and misty like a fairyland on cloudy days - every photo is stunning! The major tourist attractions in Yunnan are far apart, with winding mountain roads that make self-driving exhausting. The best choice is to join a local tour group, travel with companions, have fun without getting tired, and not have to plan everything yourself. Tips to avoid pitfalls👇 ①In Stone Forest, vendors will try to sell various items like stones and jade. If you're not interested, politely decline to avoid trouble. ②Be careful when taking photos, don't take pictures in prohibited areas to avoid accidents. ③Watch your step while walking to avoid tripping on stones, or you might become the butt of jokes. 💕You can adjust the itinerary according to your preferences and time. Remember to book hotels and tickets in advance, and check the weather to plan your trip accordingly. Have a wonderful time in Kunming!💖
