Yunnan Tengchong Three Days Two Nights Travel Guide

Hello everyone, welcome to Tengchong, a small border town in Yunnan! Volcanoes, hot springs, ancient villages, ginkgo trees... here lies the most poetic autumn in China! 🍁♨️ Day 1: The city at the edge, slowly entering a painting Arrive at Tengchong Tuofeng Airport by plane (round-trip special tickets about 2500 RMB, booking early is super cost-effective), check in at a boutique guesthouse in Heshun Ancient Town (600 RMB for two nights). In the afternoon, take a leisurely walk in Heshun Ancient Town, with small bridges and flowing water, century-old houses, and the sound of mule bells seeming to come from history. In the evening, stroll through the ancient town snack street: clay pot dishes, Da Jiu Jia, Er Si noodles, authentic local flavors for about 30 RMB per person! Day 2: Volcanic geological wonders Hike and check in at Volcano National Park (entrance fee 50 RMB), climb the Dakong Mountain volcanic crater, stepping on a crustal fissure from 20,000 years ago! In the afternoon, soak in the Hot Sea Hot Springs (entrance fee 80 RMB, including sulfur springs and Toad Mouth boiling spring), wash away fatigue in the misty clouds, so comfortable you might fall asleep! 📍 Day 3: National Martyrs Cemetery × Ginkgo secret realm Early morning visit to the Western Yunnan Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall and National Martyrs Cemetery (free, a must-visit!), offer a chrysanthemum to pay tribute to the heroic souls of the expeditionary army, a tear-jerking moment for all. In the afternoon, explore Ginkgo Village (entrance fee 40 RMB, most beautiful at the end of October, but already turning yellow by National Day), golden leaves falling on rooftops and courtyards, every shot looks like a movie scene! (Per person): Airfare round-trip: 2500 RMB (cheaper if avoiding peak before the holiday) Accommodation: 600 RMB Transportation: 500 RMB (city taxis or car rental about 300 RMB per day) Food: 400 RMB Total: about 4000 RMB, just right! Tengchong’s climate is like spring, bring a light jacket and sunscreen; Heshun Ancient Town is empty before 7 am, perfect for beautiful photos; it is recommended to hire a guide at the Volcano Park, the geological knowledge is super interesting! This National Day, come to Tengchong, soak in a geothermal hot spring, walk a hero’s path, and see a golden world. The river is peaceful, the years are quiet, all in this city. — China’s niche travel discoverer

Heshun Ancient Town

Explore Heshun Ancient Town, a soulful ancient town hidden in the southwest border. Tengchong boasts not only distant mountains but also the melodious charm of a water town and the romance of an ancient town. Every evening, the setting sun shines on the ancient houses, and the blue sky, white clouds, and surrounding green trees, complemented by the rivers and lakes, captivate you, making you reluctant to leave. - Heshun Ancient Town: The Soul of an Overseas Chinese Hometown, Embracing History and Scenery Enter Heshun Ancient Town and you'll be captivated by its pervasive natural beauty and cultural charm. Heshun has long been a major town in southwest China and a renowned hometown of overseas Chinese. From its ancient buildings, bluestone alleyways, to the wafting fragrance of flowers, the town is filled with a tranquil and vibrant atmosphere. Surrounded by lush mountains and flowing through clear rivers, sunny days are perfect for a light stroll through the streets—wear a striking outfit and snap photos amidst the ancient buildings and natural beauty—you're sure to get plenty of photos! I especially recommend visiting the town at dusk to experience the afterglow of the sunset. The soft golden light makes everything seem exceptionally peaceful and beautiful. Surrounded by the mere sounds of birdsong and flowing water, time seems to slow down.
