Wenshan has returned, and every persuasion counts.

🌿 The June breeze carries the scent of lotus to Wenshan, a hidden paradise in southeastern Yunnan, welcoming every traveler with the most passionate embrace~Today, we present a comprehensive June travel guide for Wenshan✨. Follow this guide to unlock a romantic journey where mountains, waters, and culture intertwine! 📍 Location and Transportation Guide Wenshan Zhuang and Miao Autonomous Prefecture is located in southeastern Yunnan. You can reach it by plane, train, or self-driving: • Plane✈️: Fly to Wenshan Yanshan Airport, about a 1-hour drive from the city center. You can take the airport shuttle bus (20-30 RMB) or a taxi (100-150 RMB). Remember to confirm the price in advance~ • Train🚞: There is currently no high-speed rail direct to Wenshan. You can first go to Kunming, then take a bus from Kunming East Bus Station (about 4 hours, around 100 RMB). A little tip: the shuttle bus from Kunming to Wenshan is super cost-effective, starting at 39 RMB💰. Just search “Wenjiaoxing” on WeChat to book tickets! • City Transportation🚗: Taxi starting fare in the city is 7-9 RMB; to get to scenic spots like Puzhehei, you can take a shuttle bus from Wenshan Bus Station (30-40 RMB, 2 hours). Carpooling is more flexible but remember to bargain in advance~ 🗓️ Itinerary Planning 🌅 Day 1: Puzhehei — Step into the fairyland of "Eternal Love" • Morning: Upon arrival, head straight to Puzhehei Scenic Area (free admission!). First, go to Qinglong Mountain Observation Deck to overlook the panoramic "water countryside" where solitary peaks, lakes, and villages complement each other. Every snapshot is a masterpiece📸. • Noon: Try the Sanqi Steamed Chicken🐔, fresh and nourishing; paired with lotus leaf fried eggs, full of summer flavor~ • Afternoon: Must ride the willow-leaf boat! In June, lotus flowers are in full bloom. Drift through tens of thousands of lotus ponds and have a water fight with friends🌊 (remember to bring waterproof bags and change of clothes). • Evening: Stay at a lakeside guesthouse in Puzhehei Village, enjoy the evening breeze on the balcony, and watch the twinkling fishing lights—pure healing vibes~ 🌾 Day 2: Bamei — A real-life "Peach Blossom Spring" • Morning: Take a car to Bamei Village, then a boat through a mysterious karst cave. When sunlight streams into the cave entrance, it feels like stepping into the utopia described by Tao Yuanming🌳. • Noon: Have a bowl of five-colored flower rice🍚 in the village, soft, glutinous, and sweet, paired with Zhuang-style cured meat—absolutely delicious! • Afternoon: Stroll through the fields, watch the waterwheel turn slowly, chat with villagers, and feel the peacefulness of life. If time permits, try hand-pounding rice cakes~ • Evening: Return to Guangnan County, stroll the night market, and enjoy a bowl of sour soup rice noodles, warming and satisfying. 📚 Day 3: Wenshan City — Culture and Local Life • Morning: Visit the Wenshan Prefecture Museum, where thousands of artifacts tell the stories of the Zhuang and Miao regions; then climb Wenbi Tower for a panoramic view of the city, where ancient blue-brick towers blend with urban scenery. • Noon: Slurp a bowl of Wenshan rice noodles! Choose from boiled meat, native chicken, or braised meat flavors, paired with sour soup and millet chili—one bite is unforgettable~ • Afternoon: If you come on June 1st, don’t miss the “Zongqing Talk Dragon Boat Festival, Old Town Festivities” event at Ganhe Community, Kaihua Street, Wenshan City. Watch bullfighting, make zongzi, enjoy a long street feast, and experience authentic ethnic customs🎉; or head to Qidu Ancient Town for the “Zongqing Ancient Town, Childhood Fun” carnival with fish catching, parades, and stamp collecting—full of joy! 📌 Practical Tips (Must-Read to Avoid Pitfalls!) • Gear: June days are hot, wear short sleeves and shorts plus sun protection clothing; evenings are slightly cool, bring a light jacket. For water activities, bring towels, change of clothes, and choose non-slip, lightweight shoes~ • Avoid Pitfalls: Compare prices when buying Sanqi products in scenic areas, choose reputable sellers; wear life jackets when boating, and do not fly drones in no-fly zones. • Accommodation: Rooms in Puzhehei and Bamei are tight during peak season, book 1-2 weeks in advance; there are also many cost-effective guesthouses around Qidu Ancient Town~ • Activities: June coincides with Dragon Boat Festival and Children’s Day. The prefecture library has science exhibitions📖, and counties hold dragon boat races, intangible cultural heritage markets, and other events. Remember to check the schedule and join in! 🌺 The beauty of Wenshan is hidden in its mountains and waters, and also in its vibrant local life~This June, take this guide and set off! ✨#WenshanTravelGuide #JuneTravelRecommendations #PuzheheiLotusSeason #BameiUtopia #DragonBoatFestivalDestinations
