🌟 Yunnan Wonders: Ancient Cities & Majestic Mountains 🌟

I've explored some incredible spots that you just can't miss! Here's the lowdown on where to go and what to see: 🏰 Dali Ancient City Stroll back in time in Dali Ancient City, where culture and history dance amidst the stunning backdrop of the Cangshan Mountains. With no entry fee, this 1,200-year-old marvel is a hub of activity. From the traditional Bai homes to the bustling markets and the serene Erhai Lake views, it's a feast for the senses. Wander through by day or soak up the atmosphere at night; either way, you're in for a treat. Don't miss the local beef skewers and the fresh flower cakes – they're a culinary delight! ⛰️ Cangshan Mountain Ascend Cangshan Mountain and feel like you've stepped into a celestial realm. Despite some logistical hiccups with ticketing, the views are worth every second of the wait. The mountain's swift weather changes add to the adventure, offering breathtaking vistas of the entire region. Remember to pack an oxygen bottle, as the altitude might take your breath away – quite literally! Hike along the Jade Belt pathway and immerse yourself in the lush greenery and the beauty of the eighteen streams. 🌊 Erhai Lake Erhai Lake is an enchanting choice for a peaceful escape. Whether cycling around at sunset or simply chilling by the water, the lake's beauty is undeniable. Take a boat trip to Nanzhao Folk Island, but make sure to allow enough time to truly appreciate its charm. Stay at a lakeside resort, like the Dali Qingmai Sea View Resort, for an unforgettable sunrise or sunset that paints the sky and the lake in a myriad of colors. Feed the seagulls and let the tranquility of Erhai wash over you. 🎨 Dongfengyun Scenic Area Dongfengyun is a picturesque spot perfect for those Instagram-worthy shots. While it may seem a tad monotonous after a while, the unique red brick architecture and the vibrant art scene are definite highlights. Rent an electric car to zip around, or if the weather's clear, take a leisurely stroll to soak in the kaleidoscope art installations and the floral splendor. At night, the lit-up art pieces transform the area into a magical landscape. 🏯 The Chongsheng Temple and The Three-Pagoda Culture Tourist Area The grandeur of the Chongsheng Temple and its iconic Three Pagodas is a sight to behold. Despite a touch of commercialization, the spiritual vibe is palpable. Take the electric car to the top and walk down, visiting the various temples and feeding the fish along the way. The reconstructed temple complex, while new, still holds a sense of awe, and the pagodas stand as a testament to the region's rich Buddhist heritage. 🛶 Shuanglang Shuanglang is a bustling spot on the Erhai Lake circuit. Brimming with life, it offers a mix of dining, shopping, and leisure activities. Take a boat to Nanzhao Folk Island or simply enjoy the laid-back vibe of the town. For a perfect end to your day, catch the sunset at the Sun Palace or the Nanzhao Folk Island and bask in the beauty of this lakeside gem.

The Fairy Tale Castle Closest to Your Heart | Dongfeng Yun in Yunnan's Mile

Dongfeng Yun is a man-made scenic area designed by artist Luo Xu. It is said to have been built with over 7 million red bricks and is known as 'Little Morocco'. The architectural style is very distinctive and offers superb photo opportunities. Xiuwei Gate The white building at the entrance of the scenic area is also quite beautiful for taking pictures. Kaleidoscope Art Museum The building, shaped like a red brick wine bottle with a flame, integrates Mile's red wine culture with the fire culture of the Yi minority's Axi people, creating a strong visual impact. Every casual snapshot is a masterpiece! Half Cloud Artist's Reception Room The construction style of Half Cloud is basically the same as that of the Kaleidoscope Art Museum, with strange shapes, but it resembles 'a half cloud at the edge of the sky'. Colorful Flower Field, also known as Lavender Manor This place is hailed as the 'Provence of Central Yunnan', but actually, there is no lavender, haha, it's all large patches of verbena, with the flowering period from April to October~ There is also a railway in the flower sea, engraved with 'I love you' in different languages. Stamp Workshop At the end of the flower field is the Stamp Workshop, which unlike the rounded buildings of the Kaleidoscope and Reception Room, is angular and cylindrical, arranged like a series of stamps. Location: 22 kilometers from the city of Mile, Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province Transportation: Take bus number 1 from Mile High-Speed Train Station and walk about 800m to arrive, approximately 20 minutes. Opening Hours: 8:00-18:00 Tickets: 1. Scenic area admission adult ticket 60 yuan 2. Separate round-trip shuttle ticket 20 yuan (The shuttle departs from the Comprehensive Service Area and returns from the Agricultural Reclamation Parking Lot) 3. Ticket plus round-trip shuttle ticket 80 yuan Little tips 1. Definitely avoid the pink sand beach inside the scenic area, it's a rip-off and not worth the photo! 2. Please prepare a small medicine pack (e.g., montmorillonite, intestinal antiseptic, floral water, etc.) 3. The temperature varies greatly between day and night, please remember to bring a light jacket/shawl.

I stayed in a red brick castle in Yunnan

Because this trip was solo, I strictly controlled my travel budget, and the place I stayed on the day I arrived in Kunming was 👉 Mile Dongfengyun Niu Duo Luo Music Farm I originally went for the night view of Dongfengyun Scenic Area🌃, but it was too late when I arrived, and I missed the sunset🌇 Dongfengyun was created by a talented artist from Mile, Yunnan, named Luo Xu. It is said that he was inspired by his child's doodles on paper and had a sudden idea to create this series of buildings. The buildings are all made of red bricks, without using a single steel bar or nail, forming an architectural complex with themes such as kaleidoscope, half a cloud, and seal. The construction of this building took only 300 days, using 300,000 red bricks, and built such a red brick arch structure that even architects couldn't help but marvel at. ⭕️ Dinner was at the Chinese restaurant of 👉 Dongfengyun Meijing Pavilion Select Hotel, mainly because I only got the rented car🚗 at 5:30 pm, and it was almost 8 pm when I arrived in Mile City. ⭕️ Meijing Pavilion Hotel is outside the Dongfengyun Scenic Area, just show your order🎫 to enter the hotel. ⚠️ After that, I had an extremely unpleasant dining experience, please avoid this restaurant⚠️ ⚠️ I walked into the restaurant from the lobby and there was no staff to greet me, not even a glass of water🥃 was poured, and I ended up pouring it myself; ⚠️ It took 15 minutes to take my order after sitting down, and only after asking several times did they take my order; ⚠️ It took 30 minutes to serve the dishes🥣 after ordering, and I was told that the service ends at 9 pm, it was the first time I finished a hot pot meal in 15 minutes; ⚠️ The table next to me even got the wrong pot base🍲❗️ ⭕️ It was already 9 pm after dinner, so I hurried to Niu Duo Luo to check in. The homestay is inside the scenic area, just show the order information to the gatekeeper and you don't need to buy a ticket🎫 to enter the scenic area❗️ ⭕️ Following the navigation🧭, I quickly arrived at the homestay. Since it was a dead-end road, the housekeeper said it was fine to park the car on the side of the road as long as it didn't affect other cars. ⭕️ Since it was the off-season for tourism, the housekeeper upgraded my room for free😄 from the annex to the main building. ⭕️ The housekeeper was very enthusiastic and helped move my luggage🧳 to the room. The room was large and clean, and I always felt like I had come to Spain🇪🇸. ⭕️ The homestay included breakfast the next day🥣, and now that I think about it, the rice noodles served to me were Mile's special braised chicken rice noodles🍜 in addition to the self-service fruits, bread, and stir-fried dishes. ⭕️ After eating and drinking, I took photos and checked in at the scenic area. It's really too good for photos📷 here, with blue skies and white clouds🌞 and plenty of light, but often you may have to compete with the aunties for a spot. Of course, you will also meet many beautiful👩 ladies. ⭕️ When leaving, I grouped another afternoon tea☕️ package from Meijing Pavilion (of course, I applied for a refund as soon as I entered the hotel). Although the service experience at the Chinese restaurant was not great, the hotel is really beautiful. 💰 Cost summary is as follows: 💰 Meijing Pavilion dinner: 148 💰 Niu Duo Luo accommodation: 380 (including breakfast) 📷 Photo shooting suggestions: 1️⃣ It is recommended to shoot in the afternoon. I shot in the morning, and the angle and intensity of the light were not ideal. The local sunrise in Yunnan is around 7:20 am, and sunset is around 7 pm; 2️⃣ It is said that flying drones is not allowed in the scenic area, but I took off from the homestay to shoot the kaleidoscope; 3️⃣ Classic shooting spots: The main entrance of the Meijing Pavilion lobby can capture the hotel's three large chimneys, and the rest is shooting around the kaleidoscope. Since the main body of the building is quite large and there are many people, you can bring a telephoto lens.

YUNNAN road-trips always surprise!

On our way around Yunnan we ran into this unique place. It’s unlike anything else. It is a large area with different activities to do. Most obvious one - strolling around and take pictures. The architecture of buildings is so unique and beautiful, that you’ll enjoy the moments looking around. There’s area with with restaurants and cafés, where you can recharge. There are also some hotels within the area where you can spend night. We were told that groups of artists often gather there and hold concerts/performances, however we weren’t lucky enough. This place is 100% worth visit. Bring comfy shoes and be ready for some walk. #roadtrip #sunnyday #yunnan

Dongfengyun Scenic Area, 📍Mile

The Art Museum located at Dongfengyun Scenic Area is a must see attraction while you are traveling to Kunming and is worth spending your afternoon exploring the area. The museum expounds on the interpretation of earth, space and architecture by “Luo Xu”, the architecture is made of bricks laid in a geometry manner giving an illusion of wine bottles or red flames giving a unique art form full of postmodernist’s elements, as the real inspiration came from kaleidoscope Luo Xu used to play in his childhood.. Looking inside the dome, each window gives a certain shadow at different angels such as a kaleidoscope. 🔥🔥🔥 The scenic area is 1 hour away by train, taking it from Kunming Railway Station to Mile, but trains are every 2 hours so book a day in advance. As soon as you arrive at Mile Railway Station, you can easily get a taxi from outside costing 20th and a 10 minutes drive. The ticket price is 60 rmb, it’s better to add on the transportation which is 20 rmb round trip, as the walk is quite long but then the scenery alongside is quite breathtaking.. 🔥🔥🔥 📍Dongfengyun Secenic Area / 1 hour train 🕰10:00 - 18:00 💰60 rmb adult, 20 rmb add transportation. #staycation #mile #kunmingtravel #yunnan #urbanexplorer #touristattractions #architecturalphotos Photos

Mile Dongfengyun Scenic Area.

The buildings in Dongfengyun Scenic Area are very distinctive, mainly made of local red bricks, which are very design-oriented. It is said that there are no drafts for the buildings in the scenic area, and they are built at will. Such a seemingly unorganized building is from a "strange person" born in Mile. He mixed three local cultures, the wine bottle-shaped building represents the red wine culture of Mile, and there are also the fire culture buildings of the Yi people and the co-existing and upward culture buildings, which are all worth seeing. There are buses from the city to Dongfengyun to the entrance of the scenic area, which is convenient for transportation.

Not abroad! Departing from Kunming, 1-hour trip, winning big on social media

🩵【Mile Dongfeng Yun】 A uniquely artistic kaleidoscope, extremely, extremely, extremely beautiful! You can take stunning photos effortlessly! 💙No need to study the angles, just check the sunlight direction of the day. With the blue sky as the background, walk around the kaleidoscope, and any photo you take will be beautiful! 🎟️Tickets are 80, sightseeing car is 20, but walking in is also very beautiful! It's about a 20-minute walk, with beautiful lavender, gardens, windmills, and small rail tracks🛤️ along the way. I love strolling here! 🛼Transportation From Kunming South Station, take the high-speed train🚄 to Mile Station, then take a taxi for about half an hour. It's recommended to stay in Mile for a day; it's a hidden gem worth traveling to~

🌈Attraction features: This is a man-made attraction that was transformed from an old farm by a designer. The architecture is very novel and photogenic. It's a must-visit for photography lovers. 🕐️Opening hours: The park closes at midnight. There is a hotel inside where you can stay. 🚗Transportation strategy: You can take the Dongfeng Yun bus, but the waiting time is a bit long. You can also take a Didi or carpool. 💗Other tips: You can take the sightseeing bus or not. The attractions are very close to each other, and you can basically walk to each one in about ten minutes. I only take photos of people, not scenery, but the photos are really good.

Maitreya Dongfeng Charm

Recorded on August 29, family trip. Key points: 1. The scenic area is quite large. If you don't want to walk until your legs break, you must take the electric car. One ticket allows unlimited rides. 2. Choosing to stay in a hotel within the scenic area will make it much more convenient to visit the attractions. If you want convenient dining and shopping, you must stay in Maitreya City! (Since I had luggage and a child with me, I stayed in the scenic area. If I needed to buy something, I took a taxi to the city.) 3. The scenic area is a bit far from Maitreya City, a taxi ride costs about 35 yuan. The surroundings are desolate, and it gets pitch dark everywhere by evening. Dining and shopping are not very convenient, and you can only order takeout through Ele.me with limited options, so we dined at the hotel. The prices are comparable to those in malls, not cheap. 4. By the end of August, the lavender sea of flowers begins to wither, and the state of the flower sea is average. 5. The core attraction of the scenic area is the Kaleidoscope, which is very photogenic. There is also a travel photo studio nearby with reasonable prices. You can choose to take tourist photos; mine cost 198 yuan for 25 raw photos. 6. The ultraviolet rays in Yunnan will not spare anyone. If you don't want to get tanned, you must use sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen! 7. You can play for one day or two days, depending on the individual. I played for two days, one day at Dongfeng Charm and one day at Taiping Lake.

The fairy tale castle closest to your heart

The town was founded in 2014 and now covers various industries such as ecological agriculture, art and culture, leisure and health tourism, including lavender estates, wineries, artist estates, rose estates, lily estates, forest parks, lakeside wetlands, tranquil valleys, and agricultural and sideline product processing bases. It is a national 4A-level modern agricultural tourism complex that integrates high-end leisure and health tourism. The Kaleidoscope Art Museum is now a popular internet check-in spot and the business card of Dongfeng Yun. Its architectural style integrates wine culture, the fire culture of the Yi ethnic subgroup Axie people, and the culture of symbiosis and upward growth. The castle shapes of wine bottles and flames are all built with red bricks. Due to its unique shape, it is known as the "magical castle of magical futurism" and "the fairy tale castle closest to your heart". The predecessor of Dongfeng Yun was Mile Dongfeng Farm, which was established in 1958. It later underwent several identity changes such as a farm and a construction corps, but the nature of the farm remained unchanged. In 1974, it was officially renamed Yunnan Provincial State-owned Mile Dongfeng Farm. In 2011, the Mile County Dongfeng Farm Management Bureau was established. In 2013, Mile County was upgraded to a city and renamed Mile City Dongfeng Farm Management Bureau. Dongfeng Yun is rooted in the farm, transformed from the farm, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, creating today's Dongfeng Yun. Its architecture is very distinctive and eye-catching. It mainly uses locally produced red bricks, combining Chinese and Western styles, drawing on various strengths, and possessing both design sense and practicality. It is said that the buildings in the scenic area do not even have design drafts, all are created at will. And the designer is a local eccentric named Luo Xu, born in 1959, who entered the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 1988 and studied under Mr. Qian Shaowu. Luo Xu's Dongfeng Yun integrates three local cultures, drawing on and merging them. Dongfeng Yun is his famous work and also his peak work, becoming famous at the peak, which is amazing.

The grapes are ripe, you should come to Mile

The temperature in southern Yunnan is rising, and the ripe fruits will be made into fine wine. People listen to songs, clink glasses, and stroll in the garden under the red bricks. Travelers follow the dance steps of the Axi people, enchanted by the skirts of Yi girls. Tips: 1.

The hotel shuttle bus can pick you up at any time, and the response is very timely. 3.

The swimming pool is open until 21:00, but it is not a constant temperature pool, so it will be much cooler at night than during the day.
