Kaleidoscope Art Manor
Kaleidoscope Art Manor was designed by artist Luo Xu. The entire building is constructed with red bricks stacked in interlocking circles. From a distance, it looks like a cluster of cylindrical towers growing out of the red earth, though some also see it as upright wine bottles or clusters of burning flames, echoing the local red wine culture and the fire culture of the Axi Yi people. Inside, the design combines Western-style domes with the form of traditional Chinese tile kilns, with skylights and windows on the walls arranged based on the light and shadow principles of a kaleidoscope. As the sun's angle changes throughout the day, spots of light and shadows shift across the walls and floor, creating different light and shadow effects depending on whether you visit in the morning or afternoon. The main hall displays Luo Xu's pottery sculpture work, "The Thousand-Person Choir," featuring hundreds of hand-molded coarse pottery figures lined up neatly, each with different expressions and postures, resembling a choir singing at the top of their lungs.Mile · 11.5km from downtown

弥勒，最出名的就是温泉，走在大街上，到处是温泉酒店。 傍晚，走出酒店去湖泉生态园逛一逛。湖泉生态园是一个免费开放的景区，园中花草树木、山石岛屿、小桥流水相辅相成，形成了优美的自然意境。 夕阳西下，在这里漫步，让人感觉轻松和惬意。

The scenery of Honghe Water Village is pleasant. You can travel and play around the lake of Honghe River, or visit the buildings like those in Jiangnan Water Village, and feel a different and wonderful feeling. It is suitable for a free and easy travel after dinner, and it is full of literary and artistic atmosphere. In addition, there are hotels and food in Honghe Water Village, which are also very good.

Green mountains and clear waters, wild flowers and chirping birds have captured my heart. Sitting on a boat, playing cards or eating snacks, enjoying the scenery, don't forget to take photos when a group of white cranes fly over your head.

Location: Haigeng Park/No. 16 Hubin Road ↔ Xishan Longmen (West Mountain Dragon Gate), not near the old street, you have to go to the Dianchi Lake area.
Experience: Crossing the lake + climbing the mountain, about 20 minutes one way, views of Dianchi Lake, Sleeping Beauty Mountain, and city scenery, great for taking photos.
Ticket Price: One way about 59-60 RMB, round trip about 98-100 RMB.
Advantages: Easy for lazy people to climb West Mountain, no climbing required, unique views; seagulls in winter.
Disadvantages: Stops during strong winds/thunderstorms; long queues during peak season; separate ticket/walking required for Longmen after climbing the mountain; don't confuse with the "Xishan Longmen Cableway".
Conclusion: First time in Kunming, taking the Dianchi-Xishan route → worth it; if just exploring the old street → not worth a special trip.
