A Healing Journey After the Gaokao: Graduation Trip to Yunnan!

Classmates: The bell marking the end of the Gaokao has finally rung, releasing three years of tension—it's time to reward yourself with a healing trip! Where better than the breezy clouds ☁️ of Yunnan to celebrate the freedom of summer! 1⃣️ First Stop: Romantic Dali 🚲 Cycling at Erhai Lake: Rent an e-bike and ride along the ecological corridor, feeling the Xiaguan wind. The S-curve, Langqiao Bridge, Lonely Tree... Every shot is Instagram-worthy. ☕ Slow Life in Old Town: Hunt for handmade crafts on Renmin Road, sip coffee at Foreigner Street, and enjoy folk music at a pub at night. 🥮 Xizhou Ancient Town: Bai-style architecture + tie-dye workshops, and don’t miss the crispy "Posu Baba" pastry. 2⃣️ Second Stop: Snow Mountain Mystique · Lijiang 🏮 Lijiang Old Town: By day, it's a floral paradise with quaint bridges and streams; by night, it transforms into a vibrant artsy hub. 🏔️ Jade Dragon Snow Mountain: Snap a photo at the 4,680-meter stone marker! Blue Moon Valley feels like stepping into a Tiffany-blue dream. 👣 Shuhe/Baisha: Quieter than Lijiang Old Town, perfect for leisurely exploration. 3⃣️ Third Stop: Paradise on Earth · Shangri-La 💃 Dukezong Ancient Town: Spin prayer wheels for blessings and join locals in a Tibetan dance at the square at night. 📸 Songzanlin Monastery: The "Little Potala Palace" glows golden—dress in Tibetan attire for photos that’ll light up your social media. 🌲 Hiking in Nanjilo/Yubeng: Summer is when the scenery peaks—discover hidden gems and breathtaking views. 🏨 Stay Recommendation: Bó Xīn Yún Shè (Heart's Retreat) ✅ Seamless connections across three cities, with hassle-free 🚄 airport/station transfers and luggage handling. ✅ Prime locations—right next to or inside ancient towns for easy exploration. ✅ Exclusive master suites: Each room is named after local landscapes and culture, immersing you in the vibe. ✅ Detail-oriented perks: Peachwood combs, linen slippers, and Xinjiang long-staple cotton towels (take them home when you check out❗). Youth has no price tag—travel now! Write your 18-year-old stories in Yunnan’s breeze with your best friends~ #Lijiang #LijiangOldTown #BoutiqueStay
