Changchong Mountain, located in the northern part of Kunming's Urban area, runs north-south. It is an important mountain range in Kunming. It runs through the north and south of the Urban area and is known as the dragon vein of Kunming City. With the development of the city, Changchong Mountain has been surrounded by the bustling neighborhoods of the city and has become a forest park in the city. It is also a good place for people who like to climb mountains, exercise and relax.

Due to forest fire prevention requirements, the mountain closure period is from December 1 to June 15 every year. Changchong Mountain must be closed to facilitate fire prevention, afforestation, and recuperation. Therefore, if you want to climb Changchong Mountain, it is only half a year. Time; every year when Changchong Mountain is open, people who love to climb mountains will not miss the opportunity to go to Changchong Mountain, and so will we.

Since June 16, Kunming people have ushered in the 2021 open season of Changchong Mountain. It has immediately become a lively place. Many people in the circle of friends are releasing information and taking live shots on TV programs. We met Changchong Mountain There are more opportunities.

This is not surprising. Climbing Changchong Mountain can not only exercise, but also see the beautiful scenery. Overlooking Kunming City to enjoy the night view and watching the sun set and the gorgeous sunset. Changchong Mountain is a good place.

I heard that Changchong Mountain has become an Internet celebrity nowadays, and many people will go to check in. It is said that there are many people, many cars, and even parking difficulties arise. We deliberately chose a non-weekend afternoon to go. Unexpectedly, there were still many people and cars. The parking length on the roadside of Hongyun Ecological Park far exceeded the situation in the past.

Less than half a month after the opening of the mountain, Changchong Mountain has become much more lively than it used to be quiet and few people. Next to Hongyun Ecological Park, in addition to the long parking array, there are also many stalls selling drinks and food. Mineral water, fried potatoes, roasted eggs, ice cream... many varieties are sold.

As before, we drove to climb Changchong Mountain. Turn from Longquan Road to Quanxi Road and go up the mountain, drive to Hongyun Ecological Park, park the car there, and go up the mountain from a small path behind the park's big chessboard. The goal is the top of Changchong Mountain. Then return the same way and drive home.

The journey distance of this kind is about 5 kilometers, and the normal round-trip time is 2-3 hours. This kind of climbing and looking far away with moderate exercise and fresh air is our favorite type.

In addition to the many cars in the parking lot, there are also many people climbing mountains on the road. There were many people who went up the mountain with us, and many people who went down the mountain with us. Although we had heard about the recent popularity of Changchong Mountain, what we saw after going up the mountain still surprised us.

There are many kinds of people who climb mountains, including middle-aged people, many young people who are full of youth, and many young parents who bring their young children to climb mountains. The courage of holding their children hard to climb mountains is amazing. Admire... On the extremely inclusive Changchong Mountain, everyone has their own place.

After more than half a year of mountain closure, the scenery of Changchong Mountain remains the same, and it is still the familiar place. The stone path is winding and winding, the shrubs and vegetation are lush, and the gray stones are strange and jagged. Walking there, you feel refreshed.

Forest area monitoring has been added on the mountain. When you walk to the mountainside, you will hear broadcasts about forest area fire prevention, which will be played non-stop and remind people not to bring fire sources into the forest area... I feel that the network signal in the mountain seems to be enhanced. In the past, there was almost no mobile phone signal after leaving Hongyun Ecological Park. Now, you can still have a relatively strong network signal from time to time when walking on the top of Changchong Mountain. I wonder if this is a new change in Changchong Mountain this year.

Kunming has entered the rainy season. Since June, rainfall has increased and showers have continued. The sky was still sunny when we went up the mountain, but soon we encountered showers to heavy rain.

Although we carried umbrellas, we still had to take shelter from the rain under the pavilions in the mountains and the simple pergola in the mountainside canteen. We stopped and stopped and wet our clothes. We climbed Changchong Mountain for the first time and failed to reach the top.

Climbing mountains in the rain, watching the misty rain, sheltering from the rain in an arbor, and eating fried potatoes is a bit embarrassing and full of fun. There are really many people who share the same interests as us, and there are many people we meet along the way.

I heard someone say half-jokingly and half-seriously that they would check in at an Internet celebrity place; others said that the actual scenery they saw was not as beautiful as the content they saw online... It was very interesting to listen to their conversation.

Internet celebrities are a double-edged sword, and so is mountain climbing. Whether you go or not, the mountains will be there. As long as you really like it, no matter when you go, you can get a different experience.

This year, the closure period of Changchong Mountain is over, and we can go there again to climb mountains. This is a favorite place for Kunming people. Even on rainy days, there are still many people climbing mountains.

Tips:

1. Climbing Changchong Mountain from Hongyun Ecological Park is the most convenient route. You can drive there, park your car in Hongyun Ecological Park and start hiking; you can also take the Z70 bus to the terminal and hike up the mountain.

2. It is the rainy season now, so you must bring rain gear with you when visiting Changchong Mountain. If you go climbing in the evening, it is recommended to bring a flashlight, headlight, etc.

3. It is recommended to carry a small amount of cash in case of emergency needs. Although the network signal on the mountain is currently stronger than before, overall the network signal is still poor. It is still best to use cash to buy things at the mountain canteen. Although you can use mobile phones to pay, you will be caught when the network is poor.
