Kunming

Kunming is located in the middle of Yunnan, surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side. Flowers bloom all year round, so it is named Spring City.

Here, flowers will not miss any place where they can grow, and seagulls can fly and play freely...

Forget the troubles of life and go on a healing journey.

Transportation: If you are departing from Ningbo, it is recommended to take a plane. It is very convenient to fly directly to and from Ningbo.

(Ningbo Lishe International Airport → Mingchangshui International Airport)

Accommodation: Generally, you live near the business district and the transportation is convenient. You can consider a B&B near Dongfeng Plaza or Cuihu Park.

Eat Kunming

If you were asked to count down your memories of a city, the most memorable ones would be the local food.

No.1 Steam Pot Chicken

Steam pot chicken has been rated as one of the top ten classic dishes in Yunnan as "Chinese Cuisine".

The tableware for the steam pot chicken must be made from Jianshui earthenware steam pot for the best taste. There is a hollow tube in the middle of the Jianshui steam boiler. The steam enters the pot along this tube. After being cooled by the boiler cover, it turns into water and drips into the pot to become chicken soup. After two or three hours, the meat cake will be separated from the bones and can be eaten.

No.2 Cold Chicken and Rice Noodles

The cold rice noodles are paired with cucumber shreds, carrot shreds, and fried chicken coriander mushrooms. It has a sweet and refreshing taste.

No.3 Fried tofu

Wrap tofu in eggs and fry it. It's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

No.4 Bean Curd Rice Noodles

Tofu rice noodles are a famous snack in Kunming. The main ingredients include rice noodles, tofu curd, etc., and are paired with special sauces for a spicy taste. The rice noodles are soft, glutinous and tough, and have a good taste.

No.5 Bean noodles and glutinous rice balls

The delicate and sweet bean noodles are dipped into the steaming glutinous rice balls, each bite is chewy.

No.6 Braised Chicken Rice Noodles

The rice noodles with plenty of coriander look very appetizing, and I even feel like I can drink up all the soup base.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and I feel more and more disconnected from the world.

Why not, go to the "Spring City" and be with the warmth.
