Visit the 'Mist Twin Cities' shrouded in purple, and see the romantic Jacaranda 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 What comes to mind when you think of Kunming? Is it the 'Spring City' with its eternal spring-like climate? Is it the fresh cut flowers from the Dounan Flower Market? Or is it the romantic 'City of Eternal Love'? But in my opinion, what attracts me the most about Kunming is its streets filled with Jacaranda trees. 'Coming from afar to witness the stunning beauty, to see the grandeur of this world.' Find a sunny day, bring a leisurely mood, stroll through the sea of flowers, wander in the purple floral sea, quietly feel the spring and romance of Kunming, and live up to the expectations of the Jacaranda trees in full bloom. 🌸🌸Kunming Flower Viewing Guide: Jiaochang Middle Road, Hongjin Road, Spring City Road, Denghua Street, Cuihu Park, Oil Pipe Bridge Bus Station 🌟Popular Check-in Spots: 💚Jiaochang Middle Road Kunming's most famous Jacaranda avenue. A nearly 2-kilometer-long sea of Jacaranda flowers, it's like a dreamy corridor of Jacaranda. The view from above is particularly stunning, like a dream! There's also Jacaranda-themed ice cream on the roadside, too beautiful to bear eating. 💚Panlong River Bank Several rows of about hundreds of Jacaranda trees are planted along the riverbank. There are fewer tourists here, quiet and beautiful, more natural and comfortable. Standing on the bridge and looking out to the other side of the river, the purple and blue flowers are still blooming, the entire riverbank is a shade of purple-blue. Next to an abandoned railway track is a tall Jacaranda tree, very photogenic. 💚Hongjin Road The place in Kunming where the most Jacaranda trees are planted, with at least thousands of trees. Everywhere you look, you see patches of blue flowers, utterly enchanting. Suitable for capturing the scene of flowers falling. 💚Spring City Road Concentrated from the Eastern Airlines Investment Building to Tailong Hongrui Hotel on Spring City Road. There is a relatively low wall, which, compared to the relatively tall Jacaranda trees, allows you to sit on the wall to get closer to the flowers and have more angles for photos. ❣️Little tips: It is recommended to take photos before 10 am or after 4 pm, as the light is best during these two periods, and the flowers look the most beautiful. If you want to take photos of the streets, try to avoid the rush hours in the morning and evening. It is recommended to wear white or light-colored clothes, which are very photogenic. Aerial photography offers a great perspective. You can get a Jacaranda popsicle, which makes a beautiful prop for photos.

"There are fewer swimmers in the lake and more pedestrians. But once pedestrians reach Cuihu, they too become swimmers. Rushing from the noisy and bustling city and the rigid, dull offices, as soon as they enter Cuihu, they immediately feel a sense of relief, the heavy burdens of life, the trivialities of daily necessities, and the grievances and annoyances seem to fade away. People unconsciously slow down their pace, and can even afford to stop, sit on a stone bench by the road, smoke a cigarette, and look around. Even if they are still in a hurry, the spirit is different amidst the lake light and tree shadows. Day in and day out, Cuihu provides the people of Kunming with so much worldly consolation and spiritual recuperation. Therefore, the people of Kunming—including those visitors from afar—are filled with gratitude towards Cuihu." - Wang Zengqi 'The Heart Shadow of Cuihu'
