Maitreya, the city with the same name as the Laughing Buddha Maitreya, attracts countless travel photography enthusiasts with its reputation as the "Blessed Land of the South Sky".

The solemn and majestic Maitreya Buddha on Jinping Mountain, taking photos at its feet, has its own peaceful Buddha light. There is also the Lake Spring Ecological Park, with clear water, blue sky, beach and coconut trees, just like a seaside resort.

The shooting pictures are full of the warmth of life.

Mile on high!

Mile on high!

A day trip out of the city of Kunming definitely made us think long and hard. Where can we enjoy adventure and nature without a lot of people flocking to it? Of course! Mile. Visited two of the iconic places and it was definitely an eye candy. From Dongfengyun to Jinping Scenic Area, the day trip was a success indeed. Photo after photo were snapped for sure plus the cool and refreshing breeze made us feel close to nature. It was definitely a trip to remember 😀

Yunnan - Honghe Prefecture, Mile

Yunnan - Honghe Prefecture, Mile

hello everyone ٩(•̤̀ᵕ•̤́๑)ᵒᵏᵎᵎᵎᵎ It's been a long time since I shared my travels. In 2022, we visited many places in Yunnan and experienced a lot of folk culture, but we didn't go to the southeast to Honghe Prefecture. So this time, I finally went to the long-awaited Honghe Prefecture, saw the Yuanyang Rice Terraces, the ancient city of Jianshui, the ancient city of Shiping, the Hekou Port, and later arrived at Mengzi, the birthplace of rice noodles. Finally, we came to Mile, which is my favorite place in the entire trip. We didn't stay long in Mile, nor did we check in to the scenic spots like Dongfangyun, but we experienced the hot spring hotel in Lake Quan Shuixiang. The mid-mountain hot spring is really nice, and my favorite is the rose bath pool. After soaking, the whole person is fragrant. The market in Mile is also very worth visiting, with fresh and cheap fruits like blueberries, loquats, mangoes, and the freshly made corn cakes are super delicious! Mile gives the impression of being unhurried and has a slow pace. Although many people do not include Mile in their Yunnan travel plans, I believe that more people will definitely go there in the future!

We had a blast at 湖泉温泉水世界. We went to try 马氏卤鸡米线, but unfortunately, they were out of rice noodles. Oh well, maybe next time! The city looks incredibly beautiful and serene. So excited about the day ahead.

The unique landscape is astonishing 🤯, super interesting, and super shocking! It has become another popular internet celebrity check-in spot in Mile 😜! 🌵The cacti all over the mountains are really eye-catching ✨. Round or elongated cacti are distributed and rooted in the piles of stones, forming a peculiar and bright landscape interaction zone.

'Dongfeng Rhyme' focuses on rhyme, indeed very charming - Part Three

'Dongfeng Rhyme' focuses on rhyme, indeed very charming - Part Three

'Dongfeng Rhyme' is located in Mile City, Honghe. The words 'Dongfeng' in 'Dongfeng Rhyme' are said to come from the local Dongfeng Town, which I heard from a local taxi driver. I didn't verify it, but I think it should be correct, because this scenic spot is only twelve minutes drive from Dongfeng Town. In order to save time, I deliberately arranged the itinerary on the first day in this scenic spot, and also booked a stay at Dongfeng Winery Inn. The area of Dongfeng Rhyme is quite large, with leisure and vacation areas. After entering, I found that there are hotels in this scenic area. If I had discovered it earlier, I should have stayed here. There are also Buddhist cultural areas, folk experience areas, and ecological sightseeing areas. There is a group of buildings in the scenic area that are made up of various colored broken porcelain pieces. Visiting there reminded me of the works of Mr. Gaudi in Park Guell, Barcelona, Spain. Another scene is mainly made of local red bricks, a very design-sense kaleidoscope art group. Is it a metaphor for wine bottles? It reminds me of Dongfeng Winery, representing the wine culture of Mile? There are also Yi ethnic fire culture buildings, symbiotic upward culture buildings, lavender and flower gardens in the park. Not far from the entrance, there is a lake with blue water. I walked along the wooden plank road in the lake for a while, without encountering tourists. At this time, the sunset was shining on the lake, and birds were playing on the lake. Four words flashed through my mind: Time is quiet! It is very convenient to go to the scenic area. There is a bus at the door, one yuan to Dongfeng Town, and three yuan to Mile City. There are also taxis.

Mile Jipingshan Scenic Area|||

Mile Jipingshan Scenic Area|||

|||. The weather in Mile is really comfortable, hot but not dry, in contrast to Nanning which is dry and not humid. It's cool under the shade of trees, and because it's dry, you don't sweat much when walking. There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening, with the afternoon being the hottest. Jipingshan Scenic Area is said to have 1999 steps, with a ticket price of 30, student price of 15, and a shuttle bus back and forth for 20, one-way for 15. In the end, I still walked up. It's not that hard to climb. If you take the sightseeing car, you can only see the big Buddha, and you can't see the other temples along the way. There are wheat fields planted on the mountainside, the five-star red flag is flying high in front of the temple, and there are drum towers and bell towers. You can see a bell and a drum on the second floor respectively.

🎨If you have ever searched for Yunnan travel on the internet, you must have seen Mile, a kingdom of clay cylinders of different heights and irregularly squeezed together, reminiscent of Barcelona, where there is also a master who loves curves. Both Mile Dongfengyun and Jianshui Ant Workshop are the works of Yunnan local artist Luo Xu, with a much larger scale than the Ant Workshop. It is necessary to take good photos and stay for a night. 🌟The scenic area opens after 8 o'clock, but guests can go anytime. Once it hits 8 o'clock, there will be many people coming to take photos, so it is recommended to take photos of the scenery without people first after waking up and then have breakfast. 🌟"Poolside" and the rooftop "Open-air Restaurant" above the pool are excellent shooting locations to capture the panoramic view of Dongfeng Yun. Meijinge Hotel is a high-end boutique hotel under the Accor Group, known for incorporating local culture and art. The hotel features many artistic touches and is an unparalleled spot for taking photos and checking in. 📷Echo dome at the entrance of the lobby 📷Chimney in the atrium on the first floor of the hotel, with many coffee chairs next to it. 📷Building 5 (guest room), with a garden and a chessboard for international chess. Tips: The hotel is a holy land for photo-loving travelers, but the only downside is that there is nothing to eat. During the stay, you can only eat at the hotel, and both the Western and Chinese restaurants are average with high prices. If possible, prepare some snacks before coming.
