Kunming Surroundings | Travel Guide to Sanjiacun Reservoir It’s another year of red Metasequoia. The Sanjiacun Reservoir is half lake water and half redwood, which has set off a romantic excitement and reverie about autumn. Walking in the redwood forest against the backdrop of Yunnan's unique blue sky, you feel like you are in a fairy tale world. Navigation: Sanjiacun Reservoir is about 16 kilometers from Kunming city and can be reached in about 40 minutes. There are a lot of people recently, so it may be difficult to park at the end. It is recommended to park if there is a place when you are almost there. It is better to walk a few hundred meters more than to have no space when you arrive. There is a paid barbecue campsite in front where you can also park. Warm reminder: Be careful when playing near the reservoir!
