Dian Chi Lake strolling....

A must-visit attraction whenever you visit Kunming. Accessible by car, bus or the nearby metro, and only a short distance from the city centre area. On arrival, can immediately begin walking along shore of the lake, and you will see people feeding the many birds, listening to music, having a picnic or enjoying a simple walk. There are various places to buy food and drink along the lakeside, as well as even take a cruise on the boat around the lake. There are small boutique hotels also here. The air is fresh and the mountains and trees provide a positive contrast to the pale-blue water. A good place to visit any time of the year! #tripblazers #yunnan #kunming

Spent an unforgettable day in Kunming, China — where delicious food meets stunning scenery 🌸🍲. From vibrant street eats to tranquil lakeside moments, every stop was its own highlight. Must-See Places: 1. Green Lake Park (翠湖公园) – Address: NO.67 Cuihu Road, open 7am-9pm. Morning walks here deliver peaceful vibes, cool bridges, and lush willow trees. 2. Yunnan Provincial Museum (云南省博物馆) – Address: No.6393 Guangfu Road, open 9am-5pm (closed Mondays). Dive into Yunnan’s rich history and get a taste of local culture with ancient artifacts. 3. Nanping Street Food – This bustling food hub is where I found everything from sizzling rice noodles to wild mushroom skewers. Be brave and try something new — the flavor combos are amazing! 4. Dianchi Lake – Address: Dianchi Road area, best during afternoon for misty mountain views and photo ops. Grab a lakeside coffee and soak in the scenery. Personal Tips: Kunming’s food scene is wild! Don’t skip rice noodles ("guoqiao mixian") and fresh fruit from street vendors — both make for the perfect refuel before more sightseeing. For camera-worthy views, Dianchi Lake at sunset is unbeatable. Special moments: random chats with friendly locals, surprise street performances, and the way green tea just tastes better here — magic in the everyday. Getting Around: Use the local metro for fast and cheap commutes, plus buses get you to big sights like Dianchi easily. Taxis are everywhere and ride hailing is reliable. Food Recs: Try snacks in Nanping Street first, then dinner at a lakeside spot near Dianchi for the freshest fish dishes! #KunmingEats #GreenLakeKunming #ChinaTravel #FoodieFinds #TripCom
