Kunming, the capital city of Yunnan Province

It has a history of more than 2,200 years.

As the fourth largest city in Southwest China

Kunming is also an important gateway into Yunnan

As a transit city

This is the fourth time I have come to Kunming.

Zhuanxin Farmers Market

KunmingThe largest farmer’s market

Even though it’s the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, it’s still very lively

Very pyrotechnics

Same as normal market

There are vegetable areas, aquatic products areas, meat areas, etc.

Yunnan is rich in products

You can always see it when you go to the vegetable market

Lots of unusual vegetables and fungi

Of course, I come to this market mainly for the authentic snacks.

You must buy the chicken feet with mujiangzi

It feels slightly different from the taste of pounded chicken feet

Pickled is very tasty and cheaper

Spicy snack beancurd rice noodles

An inconspicuous little shop

There are a lot of people queuing up

Tofu rice noodles with sweet wine rice dumplings are amazing

There are also steamed pork, beef jerky, Mangshi roll noodles, etc.

It’s sure to satisfy you

Lady’s Love Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles

When I come to Yunnan, I miss Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles

I found a chain store with good ratings.

Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles usually costs 450 yuan per serving

It consists of four parts: first, the soup is covered with a layer of boiling oil;

The second is condiments, including chili pepper, monosodium glutamate, pepper, and salt;

The third is the main ingredients, including raw pork tenderloin slices and chicken breast slices

As well as cooked pork loin slices, tripe slices, and squid slices cooked with water

Accessories include pea tips, leeks, shredded green onions, boiled tofu skin, etc.;

The fourth is the staple food, which is rice noodles slightly blanched with water.

Covered in goose fat, the soup is piping hot but not steamy

Haigeng Dam

Haigeng Dam is located in the southwest of Kunming

Every year from January to March, red-billed gulls fly from Siberia to spend the winter

Therefore, Haigeng Dam has become a good place to watch gulls

Haigeng (Henghai Geng) is 8 kilometers away from the city

It was originally a wedge-shaped dike running across the Dianchi Lake from east to west.

The total length is 5 kilometers. The south of the ridge is Dianchi Lake and the north of the ridge is Caohai.

The middle of Haigeng Dam is where the seagulls are most densely populated.

There are thousands of them if you touch them

Far away mountains and near water, blue sky and clear water, very easy to produce a film

Along the Haigeng Dam heading south you can reach Haigeng Park

Haigeng Park is more like a people’s park

There are many people camping and walking

It seems that spring in Spring City has never left

Haigeng Park is next to Yunnan Ethnic Village

If there is enough time

It is more recommended to visit these three places together

Dianchi Lake was called Diannan Lake in ancient times, also known as Kunming Lake.

It is the largest freshwater lake in Yunnan Province

Water quality deteriorated due to pollution in the 1990s

Management and protection did not begin until the new century

However, the water quality is obviously worse than Caohai

I can still smell the salty smell

Floating objects can be seen everywhere on the shore

It seems that the governance of Dianchi Lake still needs efforts

Park 1903

Generally speaking, Park 1903 is a scenic spot + shopping mall

It integrates culture and art, fashionable food, cultural and creative markets, and parent-child entertainment.

When you enter, you will see a 1:1 replica of the "Crystal" version of the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.

There is a vertical fountain in the middle and walking paths on both sides.

It feels like I’ve been to Sanlitun and Taikoo Li.

At the end is the Gospel Auditorium, a pure white Gothic building

There is a cool light show at night

Further on is the Fantasy Federation Park

Very suitable for parents with children to visit on weekends

At the door is a cultural and creative market

Selling all kinds of novelty gadgets

In addition to places to play, there are outlets

Discount stores of all brands have them

Cha Street Flower Market

Kunming is like spring all year round

It has also become the largest flower trading city in China.

Everyone must have heard of Dounan Flower Market.

But the location is too far away

Since I didn’t have enough time, I chose the Chajie Flower Market in the city

It’s not too busy during the Spring Festival

Plus it was close to dinner time when I went

It is recommended to go in the morning as the flowers will be fresh

The prices at the flower market are very cheap

Packaging and shipping are also provided

Running around the city in one day

Counting several scenic spots that I have visited before

The city still lacks Bo and Guandu Ancient Towns in Yunnan Province.

Of course

If you come to Kunming during the Spring Festival, you can also choose a one-day trip to Luoping

It’s not common to see rapeseed fields blooming in February

The stone forest and the red soil of Dongchuan were filmed in Qing Yu Nian

It's all worth spending time

Then see you next time~
