An idyllic escape in the heart of Kunming | Gongxili Encounter

| Gongxili Encounter Hotel: An idyllic escape in the heart of Kunming Hey everyone 👋! I recently visited Kunming and discovered an amazing hotel – Gongxili Encounter Hotel (Jinma Biji Fang, Nanping Pedestrian Street Branch). I just have to recommend it to you all! 🏠 [Location] This hotel has a superb location 📍! It's located at No. 1, East Wing, Shulin Street, Jinma Biji Fang, Xishan District, and is right in the city center, making it super convenient to get to all the attractions! It's just a few minutes' walk to Kunming's landmark, Jinma Biji Fang. Stroll over with your friends and experience the unique charm of the ancient memorial archway in the modern city. Every snapshot is a masterpiece 📸. It's also very close to Nanping Pedestrian Street, which is a paradise for food and shopping. Eating and shopping is so much fun! Plus, it's not far from Tangzixiang subway station, so you can easily get around Kunming by subway. There are also popular spots like Kunming Old Street and Nanqiang Night Market nearby, so you won't have to worry about where to go at night. 🏡 [Hotel Environment] Stepping into the hotel is like stepping into a poetic Chinese courtyard 🌳. The overall style is new Chinese, with Yunnan elements such as flying eaves, wood carvings, and exquisite silver ornaments everywhere. The details are amazing, allowing you to fully experience the unique charm of Yunnan culture. The lobby is spacious and bright, with elegant and grand decorations, as well as various Yunnan-style artworks, such as tie-dye works of ethnic minorities. Every detail reveals the hotel's care. The hotel also has a small garden, full of green plants and flowers. Take a walk here in your spare time, breathe in the fresh air, and you'll feel so relaxed. 🛏️ [Room Experience] There are a variety of room types, so whether you're traveling alone, as a couple, or with family and friends, you can find the right room. I stayed in the Deluxe King Room this time, and I was amazed as soon as I entered the room ✨. The room was spacious and clean, and the decoration style continued the overall new Chinese aesthetic, with wooden furniture and soft lighting, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere. The bed was super soft, and sleeping on it was like being wrapped in clouds. I slept soundly all night. The bathroom has a separate wet and dry area, and all kinds of toiletries are available, and the quality is very good. The room also thoughtfully prepared seasonal fruits and tea. After a day of sightseeing, you can return to your room, drink a cup of hot tea, and the fatigue will instantly disappear. 💁‍♀️ [Service Attitude] The hotel's service really made me feel great! From the moment I checked in at the front desk, I could feel the staff's enthusiasm and professionalism. Check-in was quick, and they patiently introduced the surrounding attractions and food 🍜. If you have any needs during your stay, the staff will help you solve them as soon as possible. They are really super considerate. When we checked out, they also gave us flower cakes as souvenirs, which were full of surprises, and my positive impression went directly up, up, up! 🍱 [Dining] The hotel's breakfast also gave me a pleasant surprise! There are many kinds of food, both Chinese and Western. I highly recommend trying their rice noodles. The meat sauce is rich, and the soup is delicious. You can't stop after the first bite. It's definitely the soul of Yunnan flavor. There are also fresh fruits, bread, yogurt, etc., with a super balanced nutritional mix, to start a day full of energy! 💪 [Other Facilities] The hotel also has a fitness center. Although it is not large, it is fully equipped. For those who like to exercise, you can continue to exercise during your trip 🏃‍♀. If you want to read a book quietly, the hotel's book bar is also a good choice. The environment is quiet and comfortable. Find a book you like and sit here to enjoy a quiet time.

🇨🇳 China Yunnan 4 days Itinerary 🐾 Itinerary Overview Recommendations for food 🍄 Perfect score: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Yunnan Mushroom Hot Pot 🍲 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Crossing-the-bridge noodles 🍜 ⭐️⭐️ Rose petal pastry 🌹 🗓️ Day 1 📍Kunming Old Street 昆明老街 🛍️ When we arrived in Kunming, it was already evening. We headed to the Kunming Old Street which was popular for cheap clothing and souvenirs. The streets were vibrant with Chinese traditional architecture with lights and filled with local vendors selling delicious snacks. We bought the Yunnan traditional rose petals pastry 🥮. It tastes sweet and chewy filling with rose petals inside. 🌹 🗓️ Day 2 📍 Laoyuhe Wetland Park 捞鱼河湿地公园🎣 We spent the whole afternoon and evening, a serene escape from the city's hustle and bustle 🏞️. The most attractive part was riding a transparent boat 🛶 that glided through the lush, green jungle. 📍Lavender Field 滇池绿道薰衣草庄园 🪻 Near to the wetland, there was a stunning lavender field, where the vibrant purple flowers filled the surroundings with a calming fragrance under the sunset. We took countless pictures, and stayed till night to leave. 🤳 🗓️ Day 3 📍Dali 🚄 Around 2 hours train from Kunming 📍Dali Upon arrival, we visited Erhai Longkan Pier (大理龙龛) and were captivated by the picturesque views of Erhai Lake. The atmosphere was lively, with many photographers offering their services for professional photos. 🎥 Before committing, we requested a couple of test shots to find a photographer whose style matched our vision. It was a delightful experience, capturing the beauty of Dali and its surroundings. 🏞️ 🗓️ Day 4: Dali Photo Studio We booked a photo shooting session at a little farm 👨🌾 that had a variety of animals, including chickens, 🐓 sheep, 🐑 and friendly cats🐈🐈⬛ . Our photo shooting package included 1 hour for makeup 💄and clothing changes 👗, followed by a 2-hour photo session 📸. The studio offered a selection of clothing styles and themes, including western princess 👑 , mermaid 🧜♀️ , and traditional ethnic attire representing the Miaozu and Zangzu minorities ⭐️. After dressing up, my photographer drove us to the little farm. The adorable sheep were gentle who patiently posed and waited till you finished a photo. 📝 Reminder If you’re traveling to China, I suggest you to use the below apps: 1️⃣ 🗺️ Map: Gaode Map Gaode Map helps you find the fastest route to your destinations 2️⃣ 🚕 Taxi app: DiDi Global Always the best price for taxi / private car ride, remember keep track on your routes after getting on the car! 3️⃣ 🏖️ Attractions: RedNote (Xiaohongshu) If you’re confused about where to go next, check the RedNote! 4️⃣ 💵 Payment Method: Alipay Suggest you to use Alipay to prevent extra interest on credit cards 💳
