Luoping at sunset
Headed up the hill to find the patterns in the canola flowers at sunset.
Just a couple of hours away from Kunming, Luoping blooms into a sea of yellow flowers for about 4-to-6 weeks every year.
Worth checking with the local hotels before getting tickets though about when because if you miss the time - there isn’t really much to do.

Luoping flowers
A year after the last trip to the same place - albeit during the completely wrong season- headed back to Luoping to make up for lost time.. and it didn’t disappoint.
The whole town is a sea of yellow canola flowers on all sides.
The town is a little bare of great hotels or restaurants it seems but based o Lon how much the area has changed in the last year or so, I wouldn’t be surprised if that changes soon.

The 1⃣️st stop Kunming➡️Luoping
A sea of canola flowers, a sight too beautiful to describe
Accommodation recommendation: Shizong county town (During the canola flower season, hotels in Luoping county are ridiculously expensive, so we chose a nice and affordable hotel in the neighboring county, which is a 40-minute drive from the Luoping Jindie Peaks scenic area, with fewer people and cheaper hotels, very comfortable)
The 2⃣️nd stop Luoping➡️Mile
Visit scenic spots and soak in hot springs ♨️Experience the charm of a small health and wellness town
Accommodation recommendation: Mile city area (Any hotel near the lake and springs is good, most of them have their own hot spring pools)

Witness the sunrise and sunset over 170,000 acres of Hani terraced fields, so beautiful and stunning~
Accommodation recommendation: Homestays near the Duoyishu viewing platform (Very convenient to get up early the next day to see the sunrise)
The 5⃣️th stop Yuanyang➡️Jianshui
A cultural ancient city with a strong sense of life, delicious and fun to explore~
The narrow-gauge train has a lot of charm, but it's a bit pricey, not recommended for self-driving trips, the sunset at Shuanglong Bridge is really too beautiful, never tiresome to watch~
Accommodation recommendation: Chain hotels or newly renovated homestays within the ancient city🏨
The 6⃣️th stop Jianshui➡️Shiping➡️Fuxian Lake
Shiping ancient city - almost no tourists, local food is very delicious
Fuxian Lake - the sea in the hearts of Yunnan people, the sunset over the lake is very fairy-like and beautiful~
Accommodation recommendation: Fuxian Lake Xiaowan village homestay (This season there are fewer people, the homestay prices are reasonable and the service is enthusiastic)🏨
⚠️⚠️The canola flowers in Luoping are off the market, but in September there is the sunflower festival, and you can also take a detour to Puzhehei and Bamei, a very nice Southeast Yunnan self-drive tour loop~ Definitely worth taking a trip❗️❗️

Self-drive day tour in Luoping rapeseed flower: Screw Field - Jiulong Waterfall - Golden Rooster Peak Cluster - Rapeseed Flower Field
The weather wasn't too good, flew the drone over four rapeseed flower fields, each with its own characteristics.
1️⃣ Screw Field
Now is the best viewing period, there is a viewing platform halfway up the mountain, and the drone perspective is even better.
The downside is that it's average for taking pictures of people, and you can't walk to the edge of the rapeseed field.
The mountain road is winding, please drive carefully; also pay attention to safety when taking photos by the roadside.
There are parking spots on the roadside, 10 yuan per vehicle, it can get very chaotic when there are many cars.
Admission: Free
2️⃣ Jiulong Waterfall Scenic Area
If you only want to see the rapeseed fields, take the west gate on the mountain; if you want to play, take the east gate at the bottom of the mountain, close to the waterfall.
The panoramic viewing platform can capture both Jiulong Waterfall and the rapeseed fields, but the best viewing period has passed.
The drone is still the best perspective, but it requires good lighting, and overcast days are actually better.
Highly recommend taking the flying carpet up the mountain, it's a fun experience.
Admission: 65 yuan
Flying carpet: 30 yuan
3️⃣ Golden Rooster Peak Cluster
Because it's popular, there are many tourists, and it's messy at the entrance, with ox carts and vendors chasing tourists in the parking lot, not a very good feeling.
The scenic area has a sightseeing train and tracks, which are very photogenic.
The highest peak is Laojian Mountain, about 3 kilometers one way, you can take the sightseeing train or car to get there.
Admission: 30 yuan
Sightseeing train: 50 yuan/Sightseeing car: 30 yuan
4️⃣ Main Venue of the Rapeseed Flowers
Free and you can drive in, there might be traffic control on weekends.
The rapeseed flower field is very large, with yellow and green patches interwoven, very beautiful.
The best spot for portrait photography, with both tall and short flower fields to choose from.
Admission: Free
🌼 Summary
My personal favorite is the Screw Field, because it's special.
Whether you come to see the rapeseed fields or not, I recommend visiting Jiulong Waterfall, the scenery is beautiful.
If you don't want to climb mountains and have a drone, you can skip the Golden Rooster Peak Cluster. For portrait photography, just go to the main venue, which also has karst topography, and you can drive in; just park nearby wherever it's convenient.
Spring is stirring, and Luoping in Yunnan awaits your visit!
Scenic features: Stepping into Luoping County, a boundless expanse of yellow rushes towards you, at the foot of the mountains, in front of houses, spreading layer upon layer, extending to the horizon, until it disappears right before your eyes... That is Luoping's rapeseed flowers showing off their graceful figures in this spring, clusters of swaying blossoms revealing beautiful smiling faces and emitting a charming, faint fragrance. Groups of tourists scatter among them, taking photos and laughing merrily in the rich floral scent.

4. The next day, take a 20-minute taxi ride to visit the snail field, and enjoy the unique scenery.
📝Tips:
1. Luoping is much colder than other places in Yunnan, be sure to bring warm winter clothes.
2. Due to the cold and rainy weather, bring a small umbrella.

It's the rhythm of announcing two concerts again! Qujing is located in the eastern part of Yunnan Province, at the headwaters of the Pearl River, at the junction of Yunnan, Guizhou, and Guangxi provinces, making it very suitable for tourism. After the concert, you can take the opportunity to go sightseeing! Let's experience the great beauty of Yunnan together.
1. Jiulong Waterfall Group
The Jiulong Waterfall Group is located on the Jiulong River northeast of Luoping County. A 'silver dragon' winds through the mountains, and over a 4-kilometer stretch of river, the drop exceeds one hundred meters. Here you can enjoy the natural scenery and feel the magnificence of the waterfalls. In the scenic area, you can hear the roaring sound of the waterfall water from a distance, and as you slowly approach, the sound gets louder, and then you can see the majestic waterfall. The entire scenic area is connected by multiple waterfalls, each with its own characteristics, and you can overlook the spectacular scenery from high places.
2. Luoping Rapeseed Flower Scenic Area
Luoping County is located in the eastern part of Qujing City. Unlike the rugged terrain of other areas, Luoping has a bit of the charm of a water town. As a traditional agricultural county, the rapeseed flowers that have been planted here for generations attract a large number of domestic and international travel photography enthusiasts. During the flowering season, Luoping County is submerged in a sea of rapeseed flowers, with 800,000 mu of rapeseed flowers blooming competitively, which is quite spectacular.
3. Dahaicao Mountain
Dahaicao Mountain has a gentle terrain, vast and boundless. Each season has its own beauty: in spring, the mountain flowers are blooming and fragrant; in summer, the green grass is lush, with herds of cattle and sheep; in autumn, the clouds are light and the sky is high, with green grass and clear water; in winter, the mountains are dressed in silver, with everything silver-carved and jade-built, integrating peaks, grass, water, light, flowers, clouds, snow, caves, and sentiments into a unique landscape, known as the 'New Zealand of Yunnan'.
Yunnan Luoping Rapeseed Flower Tourism Guide (Part II)
I have made a travel guide for the Jinji Peaks in the previous article, and in this issue, I will recommend another place where the rapeseed flowers are in full bloom - Jiulong Waterfalls Group ~ It is also a paid attraction, and I will recommend a few free rapeseed flower check-in spots in the Guide (Part III) ~
Attraction Gameplay
I personally highly recommend the Jiulong Waterfalls Group. As one of the 'Top Ten Waterfalls in China', it matches perfectly with the golden rapeseed flowers during the blooming season. You can take a cable car up the mountain, where there is an observation deck Q for an aerial shot.
Transportation
I still recommend self-driving or chartered car to get there. Parking fee is 10 yuan
Intimate TIPS
Jiulong Waterfall is the filming location for the TV series 'Joy of Life', drama fans should not miss it ~
Splendid Yunnan-Guizhou | Jiulong Waterfall Cluster
The Jiulong Waterfall Cluster is located on the Jiulong River, consisting of ten natural waterfalls that meander down, forming a beautiful terraced waterfall. According to legend, the Jiulong Waterfall Cluster was formed by the struggle between a black dragon and a white dragon over the Luoping Sea, and after the intervention of the gods of wind, rain, and thunder, it became the waterfall cluster we see today. The Jiulong Waterfall Cluster has been rated as one of the six most beautiful waterfalls in China by National Geographic, and its magnificent scenery is breathtaking.
The Luoping Jiulong Waterfall Cluster is a national 4A-level tourist attraction, located 22km north of Luoping County in Yunnan. Due to the special geological structure and millennia of erosion by water, a group of ten waterfalls of varying heights and widths has formed here, with a majestic and spectacular presence. Its unique viewing characteristics come from the numerous waterfalls and dense scenic spots, offering beautiful views all year round, and it is known as 'the unparalleled beauty of the nine dragons and ten waterfalls in the southern country.' The Jiulong Waterfall is the most famous large waterfall cluster on the Jiulong River, known as 'Da Die Shui' by the local Buyi people, commonly referred to as 'Jiulong Waterfall.' The ten waterfalls, whether majestic, precipitous, graceful, or gentle, are incomparable and overwhelmingly beautiful.
Every year on the second day of the second lunar month and the third day of the third lunar month, the Buyi people celebrate their Singing Festival and Water Splashing Festival, respectively.

Luoping Screw Field is located at Niujie, 10 kilometers northwest of Luoping County, Qujing, Yunnan. The screw field is one of the most famous rape flower shooting spots. The terraces here are ring-shaped, and it looks like a swirl on the screw. Niujie screw field is a natural landscape composed of geological features of beaded karst funnels. The funnel is so dense and the shape is so strange that it is still rare. The landscape is 50 meters deep and is northeast-southwest, stepped paddy fields and dry land, and the first level is neat. In different seasons, different color blocks are formed due to different crops. Radioactive deployment from a small circular basin in the middle. In the winter and spring seasons, the blocks full of rapeseed are golden and golden, and the land with wheat is green and jade; when passing through, the circle extending along the circle of the garden is full of rapeseed, like countless golden dragons. The disk is lying.
The screw field is named for its shape, and together with the Jinjifengfeng, it is a typical representative of Luopinghuahai. The screw field is not a scenic spot. It is said that a band came here to shoot and bring fire here. The best viewing position is on the road halfway down the screw field. Everyone stops at the roadside to take pictures.
The terraces here are not in the area, but win over the show. Let people who are used to the thick lines change their style.

The Dahaicao Mountain in Qujing, Yunnan is absolutely stunning
⛰️ Dahaicao Mountain
🧭 Navigation: Dahaicao Mountain
🎫 Ticket: 35 yuan per person
🚗 Scenic sightseeing bus: 20 yuan/person
The highland meadows here stretch endlessly, with herds of cattle, sheep, and horses, as well as breathtaking sunsets that set the sky ablaze. Inside the Mongolian yurts of Dahaicao Mountain, many local villagers run various snack stalls, offering fresh lamb skewers, lamb chops, as well as potatoes and corn roasted with cow dung as fuel, and a variety of special grain cakes and pancakes.
① Lamb skewers are 3 yuan each, and the aroma from the charcoal grilling combined with the unique chili makes the skewers very tender and juicy, without any mutton smell.
1. Lamb chops are 25 yuan each, taking a bit longer to grill, the meat is firm but not dry, and eating the chops with your hands is a truly hearty experience.
2. Potatoes, roasted with cow dung as fuel, is a first for me, but they turn out to be very delicious, without the need for any seasoning, the natural flavor of the potatoes is also impressive.
④ Various kinds of grain cakes and pancakes, it all depends on personal preference. We bought two kinds of pancakes, and the elderly village lady helped to warm them up, wrapping the lamb skewers in the pancakes, simply satisfying!
PS:
✅ Staying near Huize Ancient Town, it takes about an hour to drive to Dahaicao Mountain, with many winding roads, so pay attention to driving safety.
✅ The higher you go up the mountain, the wider the view becomes, and the last small stretch of road before reaching the mountain is very beautiful, overlooking a large expanse of grassland and mountains, perfect for taking photos and checking in.
✅ Dahaicao Mountain has a dedicated parking lot, which is quite convenient, but note that the wind is strong on the mountain and the climate is variable, so be sure to bring a coat!
✅ There are very few toilets at the scenic spot, it is recommended to take care of your needs at the parking lot before heading to the various attractions.
✅ Huize Ancient Town
The entire Huize Ancient Town is not big, not overly commercialized, and the architecture has retained its original appearance. In the morning, go to the ancient town for a bowl of local special thin bean powder with fried dough sticks, savory and warming to the stomach. Various small shops in the ancient town open one after another, and the elderly in the roadside teahouses are lively discussing daily life, lazy cats bask in the sun on the steps, and strolling leisurely on the old stone roads, you can feel the historical traces of Huize Ancient Town. Here, time always seems to move slowly.
PS: The building with the large copper coin is inside 'Huize Park', and there are many people taking photos and checking in.
