Most of the friends who are traveling to Yunnan for the first time want to visit the most classic places and routes in Yunnan at once! In fact, this is a simply unrealistic idea. Yunnan is rich in tourism resources, with many scenic spots, many ethnic minorities, and many ethnic festivals. The folk customs of each ethnic group are different, so it takes about 2 months to finish the game. If there is a week or so, how to arrange the most worthwhile route? The following small series will popularize it for you

Xiaomi V185--8714--2518

1. Super transfer to Kunming (1-2 days)

There are a total of 14 airports in Yunnan, but the most cost-effective transfer is in Kunming, the provincial capital. 60% of tourists are willing to stay for 1-2 days to visit this "Spring City" when transferring. The essence of Yunnan is not in Kunming, so 1-2 days is really enough. How can I prevent traps and play well? Here are two keywords for you: fast IP check-in + slow half-beat stroll

(1) if you sign in, you must play Stone Forest Jiu Xiang.

1. Super IP Stone Forest

Stone Forest is Kunming's big business card. Propaganda posters are everywhere at airports and railway stations (this is where the old people's classic old movie "Ashima" refers to). As a natural miracle of the world, it is basically unstoppable (Karst landforms are found in many places? Don't worry, Stone Forest must be an international masterpiece!). It's a bit troublesome to get to Shilin (an hour's drive). The train has to transfer to the bus, and the Chinese bus has to go to the station. The best way is to follow the group (save money, check in and explain). It's easy to have a tight game with the group for half a day. There are also special Shilin Day tours, which is relatively easier.

2. Visit Jiuxiang on the way

Due to its close proximity to the Stone Forest, Jiuxiang is usually included for one-day tours. Although it is also a karst landform, one is to look at the ground and the other is to play underground. Jiuxiang is like the place where the monsters live in Journey to the West. The magic cave in the movie "Myth" is also filmed here, so it is worth visiting on the way.

Tips:

Read three options in one second:

Play 1: One-day trip to Shilin Jiuxiang (90% of players choose, check in one day)

Play 2: One-day trip to Shilin (10% are afraid of tiring families, suitable for bringing the elderly and the young)

Play 3: One-day trip to Jiuxiang (I have been to Shilin and have time to check in Kunming)

If you don't want to compete with others in a group, it's also a good choice to upgrade to a car for independent travel.

(2) How to spend urban debris time

Generally speaking, with half a day left, we suggest you just stroll around the city leisurely!

According to the popularity shown by big data, we provide you with a micro-strategy you can understand in seconds:

1. Dianchi Lake + Xishan (Hot Index: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★)

Kunming's largest lake, Siberian seagulls fly here in winter. Locals like to go to the dam to feed the seagulls and take photos. We don't recommend taking a cruise ship (boring), but take a cable car to the West Mountain across the lake. You can climb all the way to Longmen and overlook the entire Dianchi Lake; or visit the Xishan Mountain called the "Sleeping Beauty" by the locals on the Haigen Dam. Xishan Mountain in Dianchi Lake is in the south of Kunming. It is about 40 minutes by taxi from the city center or can also be reached by bus. At the foot of the West Mountain, there is also a snack street "Tea Horse Flower Street" for tourists. There are some specialty snacks and the prices are not expensive.

Tickets: Dianchi Dam is free, Xishan Cable Car + Tickets: 85 yuan

Recommended play time: Half a day

2. Ethnic villages (hot index: 丨 丨 丨 丨)

There are a total of 25 ethnic minorities in Yunnan, distributed in various remote villages. If you want to see them all at once, you can only see them in ethnic villages in Kunming. The ethnic village is right next to Dianchi Lake, so you can visit it with the Dianchi Lake Haigeng Dam. The ethnic village is very large, with different typical ethnic minority houses distributed in different areas. Small folk performances are regularly arranged inside. You can spend a day walking around slowly. If you want to play it for half a day, you need to ride the battery car inside.

Admission: 90 yuan for Minzu Village

Recommended play time: half a day to one day

3. Around Cuihu Lake in the city center

(1) Cuihu Park in the center of the old city (popular index: ④ ④ ④)

No. 1, a favorite place for locals in Kunming, is the center of the old city and a citizen's park where you can visit without tickets. If you want to experience Kunming's market life, this is the first choice. It is most beautiful in spring and summer. All kinds of flowers bloom and can be fed to seagulls in winter. It is said that Wu Sangui and Chen Yuanyuan have a love story here. You can go and find it.

Tickets: Free

Recommended play time: 1 hour

(2) Army Lecture Hall (Hot Index: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★)

As famous as the Whampoa Military Academy, Zhu De and Ye Jianying once studied in the beautiful yellow-toned building complex. The museum tells the story of the hot-blooded Revolution of the Republic of China, and there is a guard handover ceremony every day, which is very suitable for taking photos!

Tickets: Free

Recommended play time: 1 hour

(3) Kunming Old Street + Nanping Street (Hot Index: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★)

Nanping Street area, Kunming's earliest commercial center, is also a representative of Kunming's old streets. The flower and bird market, old-school buildings, and former residences of celebrities (Nie Er, Qian Wang Chi) are all here. You can also shop here if you want to buy specialties such as flower cakes. Nowadays, there are many popular shops. It is very comfortable to sit and drink a cup of coffee.

Tickets: Free

Recommended play time: 2-3 hours

(4) Yunnan University + Southwest Associated University (Hot Index: ★ ★ ★ ★)

The most beautiful university in Yunnan, Xiaobian believes that it ranks among the top ten in the country, and the green campus is definitely a representative of the appearance of a spring city. Yunnan Normal University opposite Yunnan University is the former site of Southwest Associated University. After reading "Without Asking the West and East", you may be interested in the remaining ruins here. These two schools can be connected to Cuihu and Jiangwu Hall to play together. There are many cafes and gourmet shops around Yunda, so you might as well take a stroll.

Tickets: Free

Recommended play time: 2 hours

(5) Dounan Flower Market/Chajie Flower Market (Hot Index: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★)

Kunming has the largest fresh cut flower market in Asia, but you need to take subway and bus to get to Dounan Flower Market from the city (the journey is expected to be an hour. The flowers there are so cheap that I want to cry, and a bouquet of roses costs a few yuan). If you don't have enough time, it's also good to go to the Chajie Flower Market in the city. The service is thoughtful and the price is cheap. The flowers and dried flowers you like can be packed and delivered directly on the spot. The flowers will arrive shortly after arriving home!

Tickets: Free

Recommended play time: 2 hours (if it takes too long, your eyes will blur)

(3) Quick view of urban cuisine

As an indigenous person in Kunming, it is incumbent upon me to sincerely recommend three ways to eat:

Line A: Yuanxi Road Snack Street (snack line)

It is across the street from the east gate of Yunnan University. There are basically various local specialties here: fried potatoes, mixed cake lotus root flour, and cans of rice noodles! There is also the favorite "Aunt Yang Kimchi" by the student party and locals;"Huo Wang Roasted Tofu" is also highly recommended. Its family lines up on weekends or at meal times. The stewed millet spicy and yellow millet spicy dips are very distinctive; The roasted pig's feet next door are also a unique one in Yuanxi Road; in a "Happy jelly" shop in Poding, its handmade mazao noodles and chicken bean jelly are also signature. There are spicy, sweet and sour seasonings, which are cheap and sufficient, and the main taste is very good!

2. Playing Dali with Art and Art Photography (2 days)

(1) How to get to Dali

1. Direct flights to various places

There are direct flights to major central cities, but more departure destinations need to transfer in Kunming.

2. Transit in Kunming

We recommend that you take the bullet train to Dali and get on the train at Kunming Station. It takes about 2 hours to get there. There are many trains and it is very convenient.

Tips:

Train train: About 2 hours (cheap, fast and convenient)

Bus: About 5.5 hours (expensive, far and tiring)

Plane: About 1 hour (choose arbitrarily by willful local tyrants)

(2) How to choose Dali Super IP

Various strategies will list all the well-known scenic spots in Dali for you, but our conscientious advice is that there are actually many traps and time is limited. You must choose after looking for it!

1. Choose categories carefully:

(1) Three pagodas of Chongsheng Temple

Dali's only 5A-level scenic spot, the masterpiece of Buddha Capital, often appears on postcards and is very close to the ancient city. However, young people are basically reluctant to spend more than 100 dollars to see the three pagodas that can be seen outside. In addition to being meaningful to people who want to go to Buddhism, the value for money is not too high for most people.

Tickets + battery car: 110 yuan

Recommended play time: Half a day

(2) Cangshan

Cangshan Mountain is the "snow" in Dali's "wind, flowers and snow"(Cangshan snow in winter), but as a 4A-level scenic spot, we do not recommend you to go up the mountain to play. The main body of the scenic area is pine trees. From the map, there are three cableways that lead to the long jade belt cloud road in the middle. It is very tiring and slightly boring to go down the mountain. And many people have heard of Jizhao Nun (near Gantong Cableway), the popular Internet celebrity holy land that many people have heard of, has also increased due to the surge in popularity. Even if they eat vegetarian food, they have to queue up and stand up, and the feeling of being small and fresh is getting farther and farther away.

Tickets + battery car: Gantong cableway 120 yuan (recommended), Ximatan half-way cableway 195 yuan (the highest but very expensive), Zhonghe cableway 100 yuan (not recommended)

Recommended play time: Most of the day

(3) Butterfly Spring

The most classic shot of the old movie "Five Golden Flowers" is in Huadien Spring, so it is a very sacred place in the hearts of the older generation. However, now the core of Huadien Spring Scenic Area is only a pool of water and an old tree, and the butterflies are all in the exhibition hall. It is more for the elderly to recall their youth, so that young people can pass directly.

Tickets + battery car: 60 yuan

Recommended play time: Half a day

2. Highly recommended categories

(1) Playing around the Erhai Lake

If you want to experience the local customs and beautiful scenery of Dali in a short time, we will say it three times seriously: You must go to Dali to Ring the Erhai Lake!!! As long as you go around the Erhai Lake in Dali, you can basically complete all your fantasies about Dali!

Around the Erhai Lake (120KM), if there is only one option, then we suggest you go for travel photography!!!

Scenic spots that you can visit when visiting Erhai Lake:

Xizhou Ancient Town

Cambridge, China, which Lao She loves very much, is a concentrated place for Bai people. There are many snacks. I recommend taking a leisurely stroll here for lunch. Xizhou Baba, roasted milk fans, and milk popsicles are all very good.
