Kunming sunsets: a visual feast In this fast-paced era, we are often troubled by the trivialities of life and find it difficult to take time to appreciate the beauty of nature. However, I recently arranged a trip to the shores of Dianchi Lake in Kunming to experience the sunset there. Although the sunset I had originally expected was not as fiery as I had imagined, its beauty still touched me deeply, and I couldn't help but marvel at the magic and magnificence of nature. The charm of Dianchi Lake Dianchi Lake, the largest freshwater lake in Yunnan Province, attracts countless tourists with its vast lake surface and beautiful natural scenery. The Haigeng Wetland Park on the lakeside is an ideal viewing spot, surrounded by lush trees and rippling water, giving a sense of tranquility and comfort. Here, I found the best spot to capture this beautiful moment. The changing sunset As the sun slowly set, the sky began to be tinged with warm colors. Although today's sunset was not that fiery red, the soft orange, pink, and purple intertwined to form a beautiful picture. Every second, the color of the sky changed quietly, as if telling the story of the sunset. I picked up my camera and tried to capture this ever-changing beauty. The dance of the seagulls In this picture, the seagulls are an indispensable protagonist. They soar freely in the air, echoing the sunset, forming a picture of dynamic and static combination. The seagulls sometimes fly low, sometimes soar high, as if they are having an elegant dance with the sunset. Watching them, a warmth surged in my heart, as if all my troubles disappeared at this moment. The joy of sharing with friends I was not alone here, but with my friends. We enjoyed the beautiful sunset while sharing bits and pieces of our lives. Such moments made me feel the warmth and intimacy between people. Whether it's the little troubles in life or the pressure of work, under this beautiful sunset, they all seem insignificant. Appreciating the beauty of life During this trip, I not only appreciated the sunset in Kunming, but more importantly, it made me re-examine the beauty of life. Every detail of nature is worth savoring, whether it's the warm sunset or the seagulls flying in the air, they are gifts from life. We should learn to slow down and feel the beauty around us, and cherish the time spent with friends. This trip to Kunming made me feel the beauty of the sunset and the true meaning of life. Although the colors of the sunset were not as fiery as I had hoped, its softness and tranquility gave my soul a baptism. In the future, I hope to have more such moments to feel the charm of nature and share the bits and pieces of life. No matter how busy life is, we should always take time to appreciate those seemingly ordinary but precious moments.

🎈As the seasons change, it's time to dance with the seagulls again. This time, I accidentally unlocked a treasure trove of travel photography - Haihong Wetland Park, where the natural beauty is so beautiful that it makes people feel like a moving ecological picture, making people stop in their tracks. ✨Haihong Wetland Park, this secret place located on the north shore of Dianchi Lake, is only two kilometers away from the Haigeng Dam of Dianchi Lake. Walking into this winter picture, I was instantly shocked by the scenery in front of me. The water pine forest, which changes with the seasons, shows a different style in the winter sun. The colorful leaves, the blue Dianchi Lake, and the flying white gulls complement each other, forming a breathtaking natural landscape. 🎉Here, I seem to be in the arms of nature, feeling the tranquility and harmony. The forest bridges, wooden walkways, viewing platforms, and other facilities in the park add a lot of fun to my travel photography trip. The rich entertainment projects such as parent-child fishing, fish touching, and grass camping also make this place an excellent choice for family outings. 🏃‍♂️On December 29, 2024, the grand SCO Kunming Marathon event will be held, and the hotel's location is perfect (this four-star Days Wyndham is well-equipped, the buffet breakfast is well-balanced, and the hygiene is what I want to praise), the stadium is within easy reach, as if within reach. Just gently push open the window, the athletes' vigorous posture will leap into view, running hard on the track, their tenacity and courage, like a blazing flame, instantly ignited my inner passion. What's more, the hotel is now full of young athletes, and I met them twice at the elevator entrance, and the youthful atmosphere made me feel like I was back in my youth, and my heart was surging. (I heard that I will live for a long time~~~) ✨On the track, cheers and cheers are heard one after another, and the whole city is immersed in a passion and joy of sports. I stood in front of the window, capturing these moving scenes with my camera, and couldn't help but sigh: Kunming is really a city that loves life! ‼Here, whether it is the dancing of seagulls or the passionate running of marathons, people can feel the vitality and beauty of life.

There is a colorful redwood forest 🍂 And a romantic flock of Siberian seagulls 🕊 You can't miss this place when you travel to Kunming 🎈Park address: Kunming Haihong Wetland Park 🕰Best time to visit: November to December 🏘Tickets: Free (boating in the redwood forest is required) 📸Photo tips: There are more people on holidays or weekends, so it is recommended to travel at off-peak times. The sunset 🌅 is earlier in winter, so it is better to take photos between 4 and 5 pm! This place is in the middle of the redwood forest 🍂 and the park's Haigeng. Generally, anyone who has been to Haihong Wetland Park can see it (but sometimes you may miss it!) The weather is important for taking photos. The redwood trees are beautiful on sunny days, probably because the sun 🌞 is the best filter for photos (in my opinion)! If you come here, you might as well walk a little further. You can see the seagulls 🕊 flying all over the sky by the Haigeng. Interacting (feeding) and taking photos with the seagulls is also a must! 🌊Park suggestions: If you like to visit parks, you can stroll around. The scenery and atmosphere are very good! The temperature difference between day and night in Kunming is relatively large, so it is recommended to bring some thick clothes to keep warm!

Dali is popular because of the beauty of Erhai Lake. In comparison, Kunming seems a little lonely because Dianchi Lake is not attractive enough. In recent years, Kunming has become a transit station for tourists traveling to Yunnan. However, after years of management and construction, Dianchi Lake has become more and more beautiful. Not only has the water quality improved, but the surrounding landscape has also been greatly improved. Various wetland parks are breathtaking, attracting more and more tourists. When you visit Dianchi Lake, you must visit the surrounding wetland parks.

💙 You must visit Kunming in winter! Every year from November to March, tens of thousands of seagulls fly here from Siberia, it's so amazing! 💙 Just came back from feeding seagulls in Kunming, this trip was so so so surprising! I want to share with you the 3 places I've been to feed seagulls~ - Observation spots: 1️⃣ Haigeng Dam ⏰Best viewing time: 8:30-11:00 ⚠️Make sure to go before 10:30 in the morning! Starting from noon, the seagulls gradually float on the lake surface and don't fly up. There are so so so many people watching seagulls here!! If you can, try to come earlier~ 🍞There are many vendors selling small loaves of bread here, 5 yuan/loaf, don't pay more! The seagulls here love these small loaves the most. 2️⃣ Haihong Wetland Park ⏰Best viewing time: 16:30-18:30 ⚠️There are a lot of seagulls during this time! They come in flocks! But the wind is super strong!! You can clearly feel a flock of seagulls flying over, and that's the best time to feed them. 🍞Here they only sell seagull feed, 10 yuan for three small bags, which lasts a long time. If you're not afraid of seagulls landing on your hand, just hold the feed in your hand (this makes it easier to feed). If you're afraid of being pecked by seagulls, you can feed them like I did, just holding up the bag. 3️⃣ Cuihu Park: Not recommended if you're just looking to see seagulls, as the seagulls here are well-fed and lazily lie on the water surface, occasionally flying up one or two. They only come over to eat when the vendors selling seagull feed shout a few times. - 📸 Photography strategy with seagulls: ✔️Keep your hand high! Don't shake it at all!! Especially when a flock of seagulls flies over, if you move your hand slightly, they will fly away ✔️Seagulls in the evening are easier to feed and are not afraid of people compared to during the day ✔️Seagulls eat the feed, small loaves of bread, biscuits...🍞 sold at the scenic spots, you just have to keep holding it up!! You can't just lift it and put it down, once a seagull comes to eat for the first time, countless more will come. Some people also prepare raisins, fried dough sticks, fries... I think there's no need, just buy at the scenic spot ✔️When a flock of seagulls flies over but doesn't come to eat your feed, you can throw a handful of feed to attract them. ✔️There are many professional photographers, they make 'ou-ou-ou' sounds to attract seagulls. If you ask them to take photos, they will enthusiastically take many for you, but it's 20 yuan per photo, I don't think it's necessary😅 These photos are all taken by myself

Please follow if you appreciate the effort of creation.😏 Kunming is a good place for walking dogs, picnicking, and camping. It's also great for walking children and running. 🤜Introduction to Haigeng Wetland Park🤛 🤏The closest wetland park to the main urban area of Kunming, located on the north shore of Dianchi Lake, is very large with lush vegetation and a beautiful environment. The park is planted with a large number of metasequoias, which present different beautiful scenes in all four seasons. In autumn and winter, as the temperature gradually drops, the metasequoia forest slowly turns from yellow to red, forming a beautiful red forest landscape. In winter, you can enjoy the metasequoias, watch red-billed gulls, and admire the sunset over Dianchi Lake. You can also row under the trees, where the setting sun's afterglow filters through the forest and sparkles on the water surface, creating ripples and a breathtaking view. The metasequoia forest, as a symbolic vegetation of the wetland, is lush in spring and summer, and fiery red in autumn and winter, offering beautiful scenery throughout the year and has become the most beautiful scenery on the north shore of Dianchi Lake.👣 🗺️Address: Haigeng Wetland, East Ring Lake Road, Dianchi National Tourism Resort, Kunming (about 50 meters southwest of Kunming Dianchi Water Affairs Co., Ltd.) 🚪Admission: Free🆓 🚗Transportation 🚘By car: Navigate to Haigeng Wetland Park. 🚌By bus: K31👉Huibin Road Station, walk 109 meters to arrive. 106👉Haigeng Park East Gate Station, walk 919 meters to arrive. 🚇By subway: Line 5👉Fubao Station Exit B, walk 1.2 kilometers to arrive. 🚴🏻‍♀️Bicycle rental available. ⛺Tent pitching area available (to the left after entering from the Northeast Gate 1). 🕊️Feeding seagulls (from mid-November to around March of the following year). 🐦Bird watching: You can see more than 20 kinds of rare and endangered birds such as red-billed gulls, white spoonbills, black-necked cranes, white cranes, mandarin ducks, and doves in and around Haigeng Wetland.

Take your kids to Yunnan for a trip in spring, and of course, getting up close and personal with seagulls is a must. Seagull viewing spots: 【Haigeng Dam】Haigeng Dam Along the dam for a kilometer, you can trace the flight of seagulls from morning till evening. The number of seagulls here is quite large, and it's also where a lot of people gather to watch them. During peak times, it's very crowded, so be careful with children to avoid the throngs. 【Haihong Wetland Park】Haihong Wetland There are fewer seagulls here, and the dam doesn't have a fence, so be careful when getting close to the seagulls. 【Laoyuhe Park】Laoyuhe Wetland Park It's a bit far from the Kunming city center, but the scenery is unique. You can go down to the riverside to enjoy the view of the metasequoia trees and interact with the seagulls. 【Cuihu】Cuihu Located in the city center, it's convenient to get here right after getting off the high-speed train. The scenery is so beautiful that it captivates many tourists. You can enjoy both flower viewing and seagull watching. The seagulls are concentrated near the south gate, and it's recommended to go there at noon, as you won't see them in the afternoon. 【Daguan Park】Daguan Park It's advised to feed the seagulls here before 4 PM, as they 'clock out' if you come too late. The lake view and the arch bridge here complement each other, and if you want to be in the same frame as the seagulls, the picture is even more beautiful. Besides feeding seagulls in the park, you can also stroll around and experience the local culture and architecture. Seize the time before the seagulls fly away, and take action
