Manors, Hot Springs, and Lotus Ponds: Leisure Travel Around Luoping

Luoping, located in Qujing City, is not a popular destination, and this county town also temporarily lacks convenient high-speed rail lines for travelers to hop between destinations. However, one can take a different approach by utilizing the highway network to explore the highlights of neighboring Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture's Mile City and Wenshan Zhuang and Miao Autonomous Prefecture's Qiubei County: Mile City's hot springs and farm manors not only provide relaxation and enjoyment, but also offer high photo opportunities; Qiubei County's Puzhehei integrates lake scenery and karst hills, and is especially beautiful when the lotus flowers bloom in summer, making it suitable for a relaxing day trip as well. Mile: Stroll through farm manors, soak in forest hot springs 'Eastern Bordeaux', 'Central Yunnan's Provence'... These nicknames might be a bit exaggerated, but Mile indeed has wonders waiting for you to discover. The climate is pleasant in this small lakeside city surrounded by mountains, and the forest hot springs in the city's corners make it even more livable. Dongfeng Farm to the south of the city began in the 1950s, became famous for planting wine grapes in the 1980s, and by the 1990s, local architect Luo Xu began constructing unconventional and imaginative red brick houses on the farm. Dongfeng Charm Nowadays, the Dongfeng Charm scenic area, composed of flower fields and red brick houses within the lakeside farm manor, has become popular on the internet due to short videos, turning into a 'hot internet check-in destination' in recent years on short video media. From June to September each year, the purple lavender and tailflower seas on the manor's hillside are very photogenic, and the imitation windmills among the flower fields allow you to take 'pretend to be in Holland' shots, and are also perfect for bringing picnic props for beautiful photos.
