Visit the Grand View Park.

The first stop upon arriving in Yunnan is Kunming – the "city of spring," serving as the gateway for the group to explore this region. Thanks to its mild and pleasant climate year-round, the city is always brimming with vibrant flowers.

In Kunming, visitors begin their journey by immersing themselves in the vibrant and colorful atmosphere of the Kunming Flower and Bird Market. Next, a must-see is Daguan Park, located on the shores of Dianchi Lake.

This place is famous for its beautiful traditional gardens and the Grand View Tower, an ancient tower housing the longest couplet inscription in China, carrying profound historical and scenic significance, creating an unforgettable cultural experience.

Seagulls on Lake Dianchi

Visitors can especially witness flocks of albatrosses migrating from Siberia (Russia) and other cold northern regions down to Kunming (mainly Lake Dianchi) to overwinter, turning this place into a "aling albatross paradise" in winter (approximately November to March).

Tens of thousands of tame birds swoop into tourists' hands to eat bread, creating a unique spectacle that attracts many tourists to experience and take photos.

Dali – An ancient city with picturesque scenery.

Leaving Kunming, the "city of spring," the survey team continued their journey to Dali, a legendary destination nestled between the majestic Cangshan Mountains and the picturesque Erhai Lake.

The ancient city of Dali, built during the Ming Dynasty, is like a time machine, preserving its sturdy city walls and traditional architecture. Visitors feel transported to ancient times as they stroll along the cobblestone streets, admire the gracefully curved roofs, and enjoy the rich local cuisine.

Nearby is Xizhou Ancient Town, a living museum of the architecture and culture of the Bai ethnic group. Xizhou is famous for its exquisitely carved ancient houses, clearly showcasing the "three rooms, one wall reflecting" style.

Exploring Xizhou is a great way to learn more about the unique customs and traditions of the Bai people, a renowned ethnic group in Yunnan. A must-see natural highlight in Dali is Erhai Lake, the heart of the city, shaped like a giant human ear.

The scenery of the emerald green lake, surrounded by the gently sloping hills of Mount Cangshan, creates a captivating and picturesque landscape. To fully enjoy the beauty of this place, visitors can rent bicycles or electric vehicles to ride along the lakeside road.
