Aaaaaah! I've uncovered all the secrets of Yunnan travel!

Ladies! April-May is the most beautiful season in Yunnan. If you miss it, you'll have to wait another year! 🔥【Must-do Itinerary】 In Kunming, head straight to the Stone Forest! The 200-million-year-old karst landscape is breathtaking. Feeding the red-billed gulls by Dianchi Lake is a great photo opportunity! The Jiuxiang Caves are like stepping into the "Lost Tomb" series. The lighting gives you goosebumps! Cycling along the western coast of Erhai Lake in Dali is stunningly beautiful. Remember to bring a jacket to watch the sunrise at Longkan Wharf, as the morning lake breeze is chilly but worth it! Visit the tie-dye workshops in Xizhou Ancient Town and make your own unique dress! 🚗【Transportation Tips】 Important! Don't take a taxi from Kunming Airport to the city center! Take Subway Line 6 for a direct 30-minute ride! For the Erhai Lake loop in Dali, look for the pink Beetle—perfect for photos! There's the 101 bus from Lijiang Old Town to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Don't trust the unlicensed taxis on the roadside! When chartering a car in Shangri-La, choose a vehicle with a "Tibet A" license plate. The driver will take you to viewpoints known only to locals! 🏠【Accommodation Guide】 In Kunming, stay near Tangzixiang subway station! There are famous restaurants serving "Crossing-the-Bridge Noodles" just downstairs! For Erhai Lake view rooms in Dali, choose Shuanglang. Wake up to the sparkling waters of Erhai Lake! In Lijiang, stay near Zhongyi Market. You can walk to the Naxi-style spare ribs hot pot restaurants in 5 minutes! In Shangri-La, stay in a Tibetan-style homestay in Dukezong Ancient Town. Join the locals dancing in the square at night! 🍜【Foodie Radar】 The bean curd rice noodles with toppings in Kunming Old Street are amazing! Try the roasted milk fan with rose sauce on Renmin Road in Dali Ancient Town! The barbecue stalls after 6pm at Zhongyi Market in Lijiang are the best! The yak yogurt with roasted barley flour at the entrance of Dukezong in Shangri-La is incredibly refreshing! ⚠【Lessons Learned】 Don't rent an electric scooter on the eastern coast of Erhai Lake! The 70km ride will leave you sunburnt! Oxygen tanks cost 15 yuan in Lijiang Old Town, but 60 yuan at Jade Dragon Snow Mountain! When taking Tibetan-style photos, ask if eyelashes and face painting are included to avoid hidden charges! Take your time climbing the steps at Songzanlin Temple. Last time, I was panting like I'd run a marathon! Ladies, save this guide! Book your flights and hotels now before the prices go up!
