We booked a one-day tour. The tour guide, Xiaoqi, was very enthusiastic and professional. She introduced the characteristics of the scenic spots to us and planned the tour route for us. Today, we followed the route she gave us and saw beautiful scenery along the way.
Overall it's ok, if you buy a guest, you can queue less! But the sanitation inside the guesthouse is average. When it rains, the ground is full of water, and there are no anti-slip measures. I saw several people fall. I hope the scenic spot will improve in the future!

It was a fulfilling and enjoyable day! The car was very comfortable, and Driver Wu was warm and friendly, with excellent service. Along the way, he patiently explained Yunnan's history, culture, historical sites, and customs. We were deeply impressed by the charm of beautiful Kunming and colorful Yunnan! I will definitely visit Yunnan again next time I have the chance!
The unique karst landscape is worth exploring and exploring at your leisure. Three parts natural, seven parts imaginative, the landscape takes on different forms from different angles. It's truly a marvel at nature's uncanny craftsmanship!

Gorgeous park. Spend a full day here exploring the various sections. Remember to bring along sandals so you walk in the water & cool your feet. It was extremely crowded when we visited during the July summer holidays. Thankfully it was still manageable. Beautiful cascades & waterfalls along the way. Worth the around 10km hike thru the various trails.
Apart from the Seven-Arch Bridge, the rest of the scenery is good, especially the 68-level waterfall, which is very impressive. Although it is nearing the end of the holiday, there are still many tourists, but there is basically no need to wait for the sightseeing bus. The commercial area is very complete, and there are many shops at each viewing point, especially a lot of food.

It would have been quite convenient to walk from Gantong to Xima Cao and then pay the 50 yuan per person difference to take the cable car down the mountain, but now you have to climb 1,200 steps to get to Xima Cao, which is a bummer. They are currently building another staircase or elevator nearby, so it may be improved in the future.
The cable car is the first choice for parent-child travel. The pool water is much clearer. The queue for the battery car in Longmen Scenic Area is too long, so I gave up decisively. It is still necessary to walk around Nie Er's Tomb after getting off the cable car.

Miledong Fengyun is absolutely stunning! The red brick Kaleidoscope Art Museum is incredibly stylish, and the sunlight creates beautiful light and shadows, making any photo you take a picture look stunning. When I visited, the lavender was in full bloom, and the sea of ​​purple blossoms paired with the windmills felt like stepping into a fresh oil painting. The park isn't large, so it's very pleasant to stroll around at your leisure. Sitting by White Horse Lake and enjoying the breeze was especially relaxing. The staff were also very welcoming, and I'd definitely like to return during the blooming season!
Miledong Fengyun is well worth a visit, with its many highlights: - Unique Art Architecture: - Kaleidoscope Art Museum: The scenic area's core landmark, inspired by red wine culture and Yi ethnic fire culture, is constructed of red bricks in a triangular prism shape, without reinforced concrete. It's been called a "magical futuristic castle." Its interior features a breathtaking spiral structure and a Thousand-Person Chorus pottery figurine exhibition area. The light and shadows change with the seasons, creating a dreamlike effect at night. - Half Cloud Art Living Room: Its shape resembles half a cloud in the sky, with its outer walls layered like rolling clouds. Inside, it features a Zen-inspired tea and coffee break area, making it a popular spot for tourists to relax and take photos. - Seal Square and Xiuwei Gate: The prismatic red brick buildings of Seal Square are often described by visitors as "seals of the earth." Xiuwei Gate's design follows the concept of "round heaven and square earth." Its shell mosaics reflect light in the sun, embodying the profound meaning of "seeing the subtle to understand change, understanding the mind to understand the essence." Enchanting Natural Scenery: Lavender Farm and Colorful Flower Fields: From April to October, lavender blooms, creating a sea of ​​purple blossoms against a backdrop of windmills and red-brick buildings, earning it the nickname "Provence of Central Yunnan." Verbena, sunflowers, and pink daisy bloom throughout the rest of the year, making it a perfect spot for viewing year-round. White Horse Lake and its Lakeside Trail: The lake boasts clear waters and winding trails. Visitors can stroll or cycle along the trails, enjoying the tranquil atmosphere of "sailing through a painting." Rich Cultural Experiences: Agricultural Reclamation Museum: Using vintage photographs and old farm tools, the museum showcases the development of Dongfeng Farm from a labor camp to an art town, allowing visitors to connect with history. Art Exhibitions and Handcrafting Experiences: The International Art Center regularly hosts exhibitions of purple pottery, paintings, and other subjects. Visitors can also participate in pottery and other craft activities, experiencing the joy of artistic creation firsthand. Multicultural Activities: Starry Sky Theater performances, aviation science exhibitions, and international art pop-up parades enhance the experience. Intimate leisure facilities and services: The scenic area features distinctive hotels such as Dongfeng Yisu and MGallery, some of which offer direct views of the Kaleidoscope Art Museum. Restaurants offer authentic Mile snacks like braised chicken rice noodles and fragrant Yunnan coffee. The scenic area also offers electric car and stroller rentals and free parking, creating a clean and tidy environment perfect for family outings.

The largest karst cave in China, it is so shocking. I went there during the summer vacation. There was a traffic jam 3 kilometers away from the entrance of the scenic area. It took more than 40 minutes to get in. The weather was 35 degrees. The car in the scenic area could not get off. I had to walk to the entrance of Zhijin Cave Scenic Area from the exit of the Grand Canyon. The 150,000-year-old Overlord Helmet and the 17-meter-high Silver Rain Tree were so shocking that I couldn't experience it unless I watched them up close. There were too many people and there was only a narrow staircase. I couldn't walk at all.
Very satisfied, definitely worth the trip! It's beautiful and spectacular!!! It's just so huge, so it can be tiring! Also, it's really cold inside, so remember to bring a jacket!

The Ethnic Village, located near Dianchi Lake, showcases replicas of Yunnan's ethnic minority villages and famous buildings. It's a fascinating attraction for travelers eager to explore but short on time. You can take a guided tour by bus, and weather permitting, there are performances. Outside the main entrance is a commercial district offering dining and drinking opportunities.
The Ethnic Village is a large scenic area near Dianchi Lake. For tourists who don't have time to visit the actual villages but still want to learn about Yunnan's ethnic groups, it's a great place to visit. It's especially great to take a guided tour and listen to the guided tours. There are also many activities, but it rained heavily that day, so many activities were canceled.

Guizhou is a very distinctive place with unique architecture. It is a great place for taking photos and eating and drinking. It is an ancient military battlefield. Many people in Miao costumes check in and take photos there. It is worth a visit.
During the summer months, Qingyan Ancient Town is bustling with tourists. The shops lining the ancient streets are full of businesses, offering a warm welcome. The back streets are perfect for photoshoots, creating stunning photos. Climb the South Gate city wall for panoramic views of the ancient city, both inside and out.

It's a zoo worth visiting. It feels like you've entered the wild world of animals. The environment is in the mountains, and it's very comfortable to play. The animals are also well taken care of. You can see various animals very close up, and the interaction is very strong.
There's no way to finish exploring it! The zoo is so huge! My kids think it's even bigger than Chimelong Zoo! And there are so many interactive areas with the animals! Monkeys, raccoons, parrots, sea lions, tigers... The key is that the area is so large! With so many people, the restrooms are still clean, tidy, and spacious! It's really hard to do that!

I was driving across the country and passed by Guiyang, so I stopped here to see the totems. It covers a large area and is quite unique. It is quite entertaining to take the kids there. The only problem is that the weather is too hot and it takes too much energy to walk in from the outside.
We are also running to the pictures on the Internet, but when we see Yelang Valley, the shock and the screen look completely different! These stone statues are built by the folk artist Song Peilun for more than 20 years. He made it by hand with natural stones, scrap tiles, pots of karst landforms. The stone statue is inspired by Guizhou drama, the shape is exaggerated and mysterious, more than 300 totem stone statues in the scenic spot have their own expressions, full of the mysterious tension of the original tribe. By the way, it is very hot during the day in August. It is recommended to enter the valley after 3 pm. It takes about an hour and a half to play normally (not counting the round-trip drive). The girls who love to take pictures are right here, especially the location near the river. The stone statues are built on the mountain, scattered and scattered, with the mysterious charm of the East, especially the film (preparing wild wind costumes to match)~
