Verified User Reviews
The following is the evaluation of Puzhehei Scenic Area: Advantages - Unique natural landscape: with a magical and magnificent karst landform plateau lake group, 54 lakes are coherent, the total area of water reaches 60,000 mu, forming 40 kilometers of water tourism routes. 312 lonely peaks are scattered, with different shapes, some pointing directly to the sky like a sword, and some like a hump. There are also 83 caves in a thousand shapes and hundreds of states, and the landscapes of stalactites and stalagmites in the cave are strange. - Beautiful ecological environment: there are 40,000 mu of wild lotus in the scenic area, and the varieties such as large sprinkles and small sprinkles are particularly precious. In addition, the total area of karst wetlands in Puzhehei Wetland Park has reached 60,000 mu, which is one of the most abundant areas of various biological resources and various animal and plant species in Yunnan Province, and the number of birds in the region has reached 209. - Pleasant climate conditions: located at 24 degrees north latitude, 145 meters above sea level, average annual temperature 13 ℃-19.7℃, average annual sunshine time 1920.2 hours, air relative humidity 77%, negative oxygen ion content 3,300/cm3, mild climate, four seasons like spring, is a typical leisure and health holiday climate. - Strong national customs: the territory is inhabited by Zhuang, Miao, and other ethnic minorities, Xianrendong Village, Puzhehei Village and other villages retain more ethnic culture and traditional customs, such as the Yi Torch Festival, Huafa Festival, etc., tourists can experience the simple folk customs here. Disadvantages - Higher commercialization: Yuanjiashui Village in the scenic area has been transformed into a single antique inn, bars, travel shooting, souvenir shops, etc. can be seen everywhere, the village is full of locals soliciting customers, the folk customs have been diluted, and the atmosphere of the earth is thicker. - Poor planning and management of scenic spots: the visitor center is not well built, there is no unified and complete tourism road map, and there is no effective connection between attractions and attractions. In addition, the traffic inside the scenic spot is chaotic, and the checkpoints are set between the entrances of the villages and the scenic spots. In the peak season, it is even more chaotic. The first-time tourists will basically go wrong. - The consumption experience needs to be improved: the scenic spot is free to open to the outside world, but small attractions are basically charged, and the cost of boating, cave exploration, car rides and other projects is higher. Moreover, there are fewer dining options in the scenic area, the diet is single, and the price is relatively high.
Yunnan Puzhehei: A healing journey of mountains, rivers and countryside
Scenery: Picturesque secrets of mountains and rivers
Puzhehe is a textbook of "karst mountains, rivers and countryside" - 312 isolated peaks embellish the lake like green lions and toads, 54 lakes are connected in series to form an emerald necklace, and in summer, when thousands of acres of lotus flowers are in full bloom, pink and white are intertwined with emerald green, and a casual shot is a movie-level picture. Take a willow leaf boat to shuttle through the cave, and the stalagmites are like a crystal forest under the lights. In the evening, climb Qinglong Mountain to watch the sunset, and the mountains and rivers are dyed golden, like a fairyland.
Fun: The double happiness of playing with water and folk customs
In summer, you must play "passionate water fights", take a boat to splash water guns on each other, which is cool and exciting; paddle a board to explore the depths of lotus flowers, and occasionally encounter egrets flying in surprise. The Yi Hualian Festival (July) and Torch Festival (June of the lunar calendar) are the most lively. Strangers smear each other's faces to bless each other, dance bamboo pole dances by the bonfire, drink Panax notoginseng stewed chicken, and instantly integrate into the fireworks-filled Yi life.
Cost-effectiveness: Save money and have a deep experience
You can enjoy the core area with 200 yuan per person for tickets + boat tickets, 200-300 yuan/night for a lakeside homestay, 10 yuan/bowl of lotus porridge for breakfast, and 30 yuan for sour soup fish for lunch. Avoid the crowds during the summer vacation (July-August), see peach blossoms in April-May, and take photos of autumn colors in September-October. You can get food, accommodation and transportation for 150 yuan per person per day, and the cost-effectiveness is better than similar scenic spots.
Summary in one sentence:
Want to escape from the city but afraid of tossing? Puzhehei is the answer - the mountains and rivers heal the eyes, the folk customs warm the soul, and the wallet will not feel tired.
