Slow Travel in Yunnan|10-Day Healing Trip to Kunming, Dali, Lijiang, and Shangri-La 🚩 Just got back from Yunnan, and this Kunming-Dali-Lijiang-Shangri-La route is really perfect for friends who want to travel slowly! A 10-day itinerary without rushing, waking up naturally every day, deeply experiencing the beauty of Yunnan~ 🏡 Accommodation Recommendations Stayed in super healing mountain view homestays in Dali and Shangri-La, with Cangshan Mountain and grasslands right outside the window (In Dali, I recommend Tingyun Homestay by Erhai Lake; in Shangri-La, I stayed at the Tibetan-style Muyun Courtyard) 🌄 Itinerary Day 1-3 Kunming - Watch seagulls at Dianchi Lake (recommended in the morning when seagulls are most active) - Eat authentic Crossing-the-Bridge Rice Noodles in Kunming Old Street - Stone Forest Scenic Area (a bit far from the city, remember to charter a car) Day 4-6 Dali - Cycle around Erhai Lake (recommended starting from Xizhou Ancient Town) - Have afternoon tea in Shuanglang Ancient Town - Chongsheng Temple and Three Pagodas (most beautiful at sunset) Day 7-8 Lijiang - Walk around Lijiang Old Town until your legs are tired (remember to wear comfortable shoes) - Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Blue Moon Valley (oxygen tanks are a must) - Listen to Naxi ancient music in Shuhe Ancient Town Day 9-10 Shangri-La - Take amazing photos at Songzanlin Monastery - Pudacuo National Park (remember to bring warm clothes) - Spin prayer wheels in Dukezong Ancient Town 🍜 Food Highlights ✅ Kunming: Jianxin Garden Crossing-the-Bridge Rice Noodles ✅ Dali: Xizhou Baba, Rushan Cheese ✅ Lijiang: Grandma’s Braised Spare Ribs ✅ Shangri-La: Yak Meat Hot Pot ⚠️ Practical Tips 1. Ultraviolet rays in Yunnan are very strong! Reapply sunscreen 2. Big temperature difference between morning and night, thin down jacket is essential 3. Shangri-La is at high altitude, it’s recommended to prepare altitude sickness medicine 4. Ancient town stone roads are hard to walk on, bring a pair of comfortable sneakers
