In November, the north wind blows the land, and the trees wither

In most parts of China, the winter scene is bleak

Only Yunnan seems to have overturned God's palette

Still beautiful and colorful

to Tengchong

Meet "Ginkgo biloba all over the village, golden falling in front of the house"


Ginkgo Village

This primitive ancient village planted with more than 3,000 ginkgo trees turns into a golden fairy tale at the end of November.

In front of and behind every house, there are tall and continuous ginkgo trees. "The village is in the forest, and the forest is in the village." The quaint houses and the large ginkgo forest complement each other, vivid and full like an oil painting.

The most comfortable and pleasant thing in autumn and winter is to stay in Ginkgo Village for a few days. Sitting in the courtyard covered with golden fallen leaves for a day, brewing a cup of clear tea, watching the golden sun shine on the courtyard, the mood is calm and peaceful, which is rare in urban life, "excitement and peace, leisurely and leisurely".


Heshun Ancient Town

Heshun, which has been built for more than 600 years, still retains the most beautiful appearance in the old days.

Origin of town name

There are not too many tourists here, and there is no over-commercialization here. The alleys with many twists and turns, the stone steps that have gone through wind and frost...everywhere is the elegance and simplicity of the past.

There are still residents living in the town today, and the fields outside the town and the bluestone slabs inside the town are full of fresh life. Here, living with these residents, you will truly feel that time used to be slow.

It's all at a calm and leisurely pace~


Atami Park

The happiest thing in winter is to soak in a hot spring.

Tengchong has ample geothermal energy. In Rehai Park, which is about 9 square kilometers, there are more than 80 large gas springs and hot spring groups scattered. Among them, the water temperature of 10 hot spring groups is above 90 ℃, and the water is steaming everywhere.

Surrounded by green hills, the water is noisy, lying in the warm spring water, eating fresh and refreshing hot spring eggs, the exhaustion all over the body suddenly disappears.

Seeing "Cherry Blossoms Bloom on Wuliang Mountain"


immeasurable mountain

Have you ever seen cherry blossoms in winter?

When the cold wind blows in most parts of China, Wuliang Mountain is quietly brewing a "spring" surprise. The warm wind blows the mountains, and the cherry blossoms bloom one after another. Suddenly, pink cherry blossoms bloom all over the mountains. The clusters of flowers are like a brocade, which makes people fall in love at a glance.

When viewed from a distance, the cherry blossoms are like powder clouds; when viewed closely, the fragrance of flowers and birds sing together as one, and the warm sun, cherry blossoms, Cangshan Mountain, and green trees weave into the most touching romance in winter.

little putuo island

Little Putuo Island in the Erhai Lake in autumn and winter is a paradise for red-headed gulls. They come from Siberia and settle on Little Putuo Island. The birds are flying around, and the water and sky are the same color, which is so crystal clear that it makes people's heartbeat.

These red-headed gulls come here every year and are very close to humans. In the shimmering waves, they play on the water and eat food fed by humans. They are very cute.


Cangshan

In the Erhai Lake, there are flocks of gulls and birds, but the Cangshan Mountain beside it is covered with snow.

"Snow in Cangshan Mountain" is one of the four most famous "wind, flowers, snow and moon" scenes in Dali. The mountain line is dotted with greenery for hundreds of miles, piled with silver and jade, and clouds and mist linger on the top of the mountain, as clear as a fairyland.

Falling in love with "Lugu Lake Snow Falls, Lashi Lake Rafting"



lugu lake

If it snows, the transparent blue Lugu Lake will be stained with vast white.

There are no mountains in the distance, but there is snow-cold air on the nearby lake, and the mountains and rivers are wrapped in the vast mist. There is no other color, but it is a landscape painting with excellent artistic conception.

It's like a painting.


Lashihai Wetland

This is not a real wetland, but a plateau lake named after the wetland.

From December to February every year, tens of thousands of water birds come here to spend the winter. The blue sky and clear water, soaring and swimming, makes people excited.

The water of the lake is so blue that it is so lovely~

The water here is very shallow, and the aquatic plants are luxuriantly entangled on the bottom of the water. The boat sailing on it is like walking on the grass. From a distance, it seems to have strayed into the painting.

The golden one is the lake, and the one in the distance is the boat

There is a horse farm on the shore, and it is also a pleasure to ride a horse and watch the birds fly in the calm water.

To Xishuangbanna

Unforgettable "Ancient trees grow lush, wild elephants are cute"

Wangtian Tree in Xishuangbanna


Wangtianshuhai

No one can refuse the green of Wangtianshuhai.

There are tall and lush Wangtian trees growing here. They rise from the ground and go straight to the sky, so that wherever the eyes can see, they are all soaked in full and emerald green.

This is the core area of ​​the Xishuangbanna rainforest, and it is the only good place where you can experience the rainforest from water, land and air. It is also the place where the Dali Shenmu maze in Xianjian 1 (game) is drawn.

The air corridor is really amazing. With the help of dozens of tree trunks, a suspension bridge suspended in mid-air was built in the sea of ​​trees. Walking on the bridge, the front, back, eyes and feet are all pure green.


Wild Elephant Valley

Xishuangbanna is really a place that is very suitable for the whole family to get close to nature. There are towering trees and wild animals that appear from time to time, which makes people's eyes shine.
