Explore the Mysterious Ailao Mountain Again

In Yunnan, there is a mysterious treasure land called Ailao Mountain, which hides primitive forests and magnificent landscapes. In order to explore this undeveloped natural treasure, I chose to travel by public transportation instead of driving or chartering a car, and experienced a unique adventure. First, I took the high-speed train from Kunming to Yuxi Station. I stayed overnight in a quaint town in Yuxi and tasted the local specialty food - roast duck, which made me feel the strong local flavor. Early the next morning, I went to the Chengxi Bus Station and took the bus to Gasa Town at 7:40 am. The journey took about three hours, and the ticket price was affordable. I bought the ticket on site without booking in advance. After arriving in Gasa Town, I decided to charter a car to Shimen Gorge and Jinshan Primitive Forest for an adventure. The charter fee was not expensive, only CNY 260 for a whole day, and there were many charter services available near the Gasa Bus Station, which was convenient and worry-free. In Shimen Gorge and Jinshan Primitive Forest, I enjoyed the magnificence of nature and the beauty of the original ecology, as if I were in a natural picture. The primitive forest of Ailao Mountain is like a buried gem, waiting for someone to discover and explore. By taking public transportation instead of driving or chartering a car, I experienced a purer way of traveling, getting close to nature and feeling the wonder of nature. This exploration tour not only brought me visual shock, but also made me appreciate the unique charm and colorful customs of Yunnan. I look forward to the next trip, to continue to explore more natural beauty, and leave more precious memories.
