Foreword: This trip to Yunnan was originally planned for the Spring Festival in 2020. At that time, all tickets and hotels were booked to see red-billed gulls, but a sudden epidemic disrupted all travel plans. The trip to Yunnan was restarted again after half a year. Although there were no red-billed gulls, the 20,000 acres of lotus flowers in Puzhei were in full bloom, which was another charming sight. Considering that the journey with the elderly and children cannot be too rushed, the entire itinerary is relatively loose. I wanted to write a guide and record it when I came back from many trips before, but I was delayed by something like this. This is the first time I wrote a guide, and I hope it can help everyone in their travel.

This trip was a total of 4 adults and a child with her husband, parents and children, and the total cost was 22000 yuan (including high-speed rail, accommodation, dinner fees, car rental, tickets, scenic spot transportation expenses, and excluding scattered expenses of eating while shopping). Since my parents are over 70 years old, I am a medical worker, and three adults are free. Now Yunnan has implemented a half-price ticket system. Only the husband and children buy half-price tickets, so a lot of tickets are saved.

The total itinerary and accommodation are as follows:

Day 1: Shenzhen-Kunming South-Puzhei (high-speed rail) Accommodation: Puzheilangyunju

Day 2: Qinglong Mountain--Huohuo Cave--Painting Boat Cruise--Wetland Park--Watching the sunset Accommodation: Puzheilangyunju

Day 3: Swan Lake-the location where Sansheng III was photographed for the ten-mile peach blossoms Accommodation: Puzheilangyunju

Breakfast is included in the inn for the past three days, and dinner is eaten in the "red mud stove". It tastes good. Breakfast depends on the progress of the tour and the scenic area.

Day 4: Puzhehei-Dali, visit the ancient city of Dali Accommodation: Dali Flower God. yinshe

Day 5: Chartered a car around Erhai Lake Accommodation: Dali Flower God. yinshe

Day 6: In the morning, Dali Three Towers, Dali-Kunming South in the afternoon, handling the car pickup Accommodation: Wuyuan Garden Villa

Day 7: One-day trip to Shilin Accommodation: Fuxian Lake Junlin Holiday Hotel

Day 8: One-day trip to Fuxian Lake Accommodation: Wuyuan Garden Villa

Day 9: Dianchi Lake Cableway--Xishan Scenic Area--Golden Hall Accommodation: Kunming Junle Hotel

Day 10: Morning Martial Arts Hall In the afternoon, Kunming South Railway Station returned to Shenzhen and took the high-speed train

Since we bring the elderly and children with us, the overall itinerary is relatively loose, and young people can save 2 days.

DAY1: Arriving at Puzhei

The first stop on this trip is Puzehei, located in Qiubei County, Wenshan Zhuang and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province. Puzehei is a "lake full of fish and shrimp" in Yi language.

At 8 a.m., take the G2926 Shenzhen-Kunming South High-speed Railway. It takes 7 hours to reach Kunming South Railway Station. Without leaving the station, you can directly enter the waiting hall through convenient transfer. Take the D9854 power train to Puzehei. From Kunming South to Puzehei The bullet train only takes 1 hour and 12 minutes.

It was already 5:08 p.m. to arrive at Puzehei. The inn arranged a vehicle to pick up the station (which requires payment). It takes about 40 minutes from the high-speed railway station to Puzehei Village.

Accommodation: Puzhei Lanyunju Inn is located in Puzhei Village, less than 5 minutes away from the main street of the village. Shopping is convenient and very quiet at night. You can hear the crow of a rooster in the distance at 4 o'clock in the morning. Hahaha Very interesting, the last time I heard a rooster crowing was more than 30 years ago.

DAY2: Puzhe Black Qinglong Mountain-Painted Boat Cruise

After having breakfast at the inn the next day, the journey of Puzhei was officially launched. Puzehei Village is not large, and the main means of transportation in various scenic spots mainly rely on horse-drawn carriages and sightseeing battery cars. If you can ride a motorcycle, you can also rent a scooter. The rent is about 10 yuan/hour. This is the price during the epidemic. I wonder if it will be expensive in ordinary times. Because we have elderly people and children, we basically rely on horse-drawn carriages to travel. Every morning, horse-drawn carriages are parked at the entrance of various inns waiting to solicit customers. The price is 10 yuan/person. No matter how far or far, children are free of charge. In fact, you can bargain at a close distance, about 5 yuan/person.

Today's main itinerary is Qinglong Mountain-Huohuo Cave-and take a pleasure boat to visit Puzhe Black Lake

Qinglong Mountain should be the highest point in Puzehei. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can see the whole picture of Puzehei Village. The mountain itself is not high but very steep. It is not easy to walk. It is best for the elderly and frail not to go up. There is still an hour before the pleasure boat sails when Qinglong Mountain comes down. Maybe there are not many people during the epidemic, so the boat runs every hour. Taking advantage of this break, I took a stroll around the Huohuo Cave at the foot of Qinglong Mountain. It is a natural cave with a large scale.

After visiting the karst cave, it's almost time to set sail. Take a boat from Qinglong Mountain Wharf to get off the boat at Shuangjiashan Wharf, and pass through the Swan Lake Scenic Area and a large lotus pond. There are two types of boats in Puzhei: one is a pleasure boat we ride, which is suitable for the elderly and children; the other is a small wooden boat, which is specially used for water fights. It is also interesting for people on several boats to splash water on each other.

When the cruise ship arrives at Shuangjiashan Wharf, there is a ticketing point for battery sightseeing buses. You can buy a pass for 30 yuan/person, and there is no limit to the number of times that day. We took a battery car to visit the Wetland Park and then returned to the inn. At 6:30 p.m., I chartered a car from the inn (100 yuan for 7 seats) to Leshuidong Village to watch the sunset.

DAY3: Swan Lake-the location where Sansheng III was photographed

Sleep until you wake up naturally, after breakfast, take your beloved small carriage and head to Swan Lake Scenic Area. Since it is summer there are no swans in the scenic area, it is actually just to see lotus flowers. We took the scenic spot sightseeing bus (15 yuan/person) at the gate to the center of the scenic spot, and then walked back.

The scenic area came out of the roadside for lunch, and then continued to the carriage to the outside shooting site of Sansheng III Shili Peach Blossom.

I returned to the inn at 3 p.m. and went to the nearby Valentine's Bridge to explore the pastoral scenery. There are not many strategies, so I will go directly to the map.

Puzehei concluded: If you have good physical strength, two days will be enough time to play. Our dinner was eaten at a "red clay stove" on the main street of Puzehei Village. The innkeeper recommended it. It tasted good on the first night, so we ordered different dishes at his house for three nights, and we had to queue up during peak periods. The special dish fried lotus flowers must be eaten. The light sweetness is very delicious.

DAY4: Puzhehei-Dali-Ancient City

After sleeping until you wake up naturally and having breakfast, you will be sent to the station by a chartered car, and you will take the D8707 bullet train (10:53-14:46) to Dali.

It was nearly 4 o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived at Dali Inn. After checking in, I took a break and headed for Dali Ancient City.

Accommodation in Dali: Dali Flower God. yinshe The inn is located on March Street, and it takes less than 10 minutes to walk to the west gate of the ancient city. During your stay, the inn can send a car to and from the ancient city for free.

DAY5: One-day trip around Erhai Lake

Today, the hotel took a car tour of Erhai throughout the day, visited the ancient towns of Qase, Shuanglang Ancient Town, and Xizhou Ancient Town, and visited the art of tie-dye flowers. Unfortunately, the weather is not particularly good today. Most of it is cloudy and occasionally it clears up, so the Erhai Lake does not look so blue. Back at the inn, the old man and the children were too tired to move, so my husband and I ran to the Dali Ancient City Bar to be cool.

DAY6: Dali Three Towers, Dali-Kunming

Since it was a high-speed train leaving after 1 o'clock in the afternoon, I visited the Third Pagoda of Chongsheng Temple in Dali in the morning, which is also the only Five-A scenic spot in Dali. There are sightseeing buses in the scenic area. If you are not physically strong, you can take a sightseeing bus to and from, or you can take a sightseeing bus to go there and then walk down by yourself. If you have good physical strength, you can walk up and down. The air inside is still very good, and you can bump into squirrels. In fact, the best place to watch the reflection of the Three Towers is not in the Three Towers Scenic Area. It is in a Three Towers Reflection Park next to it. It takes more than ten minutes to walk between the two. You can visit Yingying Park with tickets for the three towers of Chongsheng Temple, but you will not be sold separately.

At around 1 p.m., I took the bullet train to Kunming South Railway Station and picked up the train at Kunming South Railway Station. In the next few days, I rented a car and traveled around Kunming.

Same day accommodation: Kunming Wuyuan Garden Villa The inn is in a villa group, and many villas in it have been transformed into inns. It is not far from Dianchi Lake. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to the edge of Dianchi Lake.

DAY7: Stone Forest-Fuxian Lake

After breakfast in the morning, drive to the famous scenic spot Shilin. Due to the epidemic, all scenic spots in Yunnan Province will have half-price tickets until December 31, 2020, which can save some money, haha ~.

The Shilin Scenic Area is very big. First, you arrive at the parking lot. From the parking lot, you can take a scenic spot sightseeing bus to the ticket office. The sightseeing bus is free for this journey. After buying the ticket, you have to take a sightseeing bus to reach the entrance of the scenic spot. There is a charge for this section. It is recommended that you still take a sightseeing bus, because this distance is still a bit far and you can save your strength to stroll around the scenic area. Hikers can consider walking: )

On the right side of the door is the big stone forest, and on the left side is the small stone forest (this is when I came out of the small stone forest, I realized that I had returned to the original place). Generally, you visit the Big Stone Forest first and then take a sightseeing bus to the Small Stone Forest. In fact, the many stone buds on the road are more spectacular. There are many stops between Big Stone Forest and Small Stone Forest, so you can get off and play halfway.

After sightseeing and playing Shilin, go to the next stop: Fuxian Lake in Yuxi

Accommodation: Fuxian Lake Junlin Holiday Hotel

DAY8: Visit Fuxian Lake Moon Bay Wetland Park and Luchong Scenic Area, and return to Kunming

Fuxian Lake has an altitude of 1721 meters, a maximum water depth of 157 meters, and an average water depth of 87 meters. In terms of depth, it is the first deep-water lake in Yunnan Province and the second deep-water lake in China after Changbai Mountain Tianchi. The water quality is very good. Dianchi Lake is green, while Fuxian Lake is blue. It's very suitable for children. This is the only attraction that children refuse to visit when playing: )

The Junlin Holiday Inn where we stayed is just across the road from the Moon Bay Wetland Park. After breakfast, we came here just across the road. We can ride bicycles and boating. The children prefer to play with the sand.

Drive back to Kunming after visiting Luchong Scenic Area

Accommodation: Kunming Wuyuan Garden Villa

DAY9: Dianchi Lake--Xishan Scenic Area--Golden Hall

Drive to Haigeng Park in the morning and buy a ticket for the Dianchi Cable Car to cross Dianchi Lake. Because we had to come back and drive, we bought a round-trip ticket at 70 yuan/person, which was quite cost-effective. Take the cable car directly to the entrance of Xishan Park (half price for admission is 15 yuan/person), then enter the scenic area and transfer to the small cable car in the scenic area (25 yuan/person, half price for children). After visiting the scenic spots, take the sightseeing bus (10 yuan/person). This is the most energy-saving way.

Accommodation: Kunming Junle Hotel

After coming down from the West Mountain, I took the return cable car back to Haigeng Park, and drove for about 40 minutes to Wu Sangui's back garden-Golden Hall. We need to remind our self-driving friends here, because we didn't know that the car could drive directly to the mountain, so the navigation guide is the West Gate. From here, we still have to climb 200 steps, and then walk some distance to the main scenic area. If you are driving directly to the north gate, you can park your car at the entrance of the main scenic area, which can save a lot of physical strength.

DAY10: Army Lecture Hall, Kunming-Shenzhen
