I traveled in Yunnan for almost a year. The first stop was Kunming, where I lived for a month (and then another month). I recalled the route from looking for a house, buying food, cooking, and playing, and see if you can refer to it.

one time.

Kunming is not a particularly prosperous city, but of course it has its prosperous aspects. There are many old and new houses on the streets, and there are also many old ones.

At the beginning, I made several appointments online. After getting off the plane, I first found a hotel, right next to Zhengyi Square, and then started looking at houses one by one. Many of them did not rent for a month, but were short-term rental apartments.

, and too expensive (if you really can’t find it, rent a short-term rental apartment later. This kind of house is usually used as a B&B in the peak season, and you can negotiate a monthly rent in the off-season).

Finally, I found a house in Tuodong. I can rent it for a month. Maybe I am an honest person and can speak well. The price is 1,100 yuan. The house is not new, but it has a bed, table, chairs, TV, refrigerator and everything. There is also a small

Balcony, a small two-bedroom old house.

Kunming Old Street In Wuhua District, Kunming, food and accommodation are very convenient.

There are fixed vegetable markets in Kunming, and there are also vegetable markets set up on the roads in the middle of the blocks. These markets are more lively and have a richer atmosphere of life. There are dried beef, mushrooms, grilled eggplants and roasted peppers, Jianshui tofu, which are common in other places, and

There are things not common in other places; you can experience what soy sauce wine is, bring a bottle to make some Tuodong soy sauce, stir-fry or cold mix, if you don’t want to make breakfast, you can go to the nearby braised chicken rice noodle restaurant, the braised chicken rice noodle restaurant now

Probably still there.

I spent a week in Kunming first. I went to Xishan, Dianchi Lake, Guandu, etc. in the distance. Nearby, I walked aimlessly every day. I usually started by going to Yuantong Temple, where I ate and had fast.

(Free, then clear the dishes), see the flowers, and then walk south to Zhengyi Square, drink tea, watch a movie, Confucian Temple, Ma Family Courtyard, Jade Chicken Square, and pass by the former residences, old sites, temples of some famous people on the way, yes

A lot of.

Guandu Kunming Yuantong Temple. Going east and west is to go to Yunnan University. The university is very famous and the architecture is also unique. Have a meal inside, then go around the green lake and drink tea.

The sky in Kunming is very special. Sometimes it is bright at noon, and in the afternoon the sunlight suddenly becomes like another world. The color changes, and it seems far away. The willows by the lake will float up, and the color of the lake will also change.

There were ripples.

When you are tired from walking, you can buy freshly baked flower mooncakes, sit on a chair, or drink tea.

When I go back, I can find flowers that cost 5 yuan a handful, tied like vegetables.

About a week into Yunnan University, my mind started to move and I wanted to go abroad. I had been to Dali and Lijiang before, and this time I went to Yuxi, Qujing, Maitreya, and Chuxiong. I went to live in Kunming for the second time, and then lived there again.

Chuxiong, Honghe, and Dali all stem from the first impression of Yunnan.

Yunnan’s food and customs are 40% different from one place to another. This 40% is the source of happiness for tourists, such as the chrysanthemum rice noodles eaten in Mengzi, Weishan’s bait silk, and Heqing’s

Baijiu, Baoshan fire-roasted pork, Fuyuan's pig's feet in sour soup, Yuxi's donkey meat, Jianshui's pottery, Maitreya's high-quality wine, etc. Each place has its own splendor and is different from place to place.

Yunnan Village Feast, Baoshan Pot Beef, Yunnan Weishan Braised Pork Rice Noodles, Jianshui Grilled Tofu. In short, if it is only for a month, I recommend staying in Wuhua District, Kunming. It is convenient for food and accommodation. A week in Kunming is enough to play every day.

Then in the remaining three weeks, plan to travel to surrounding areas (ignore it if you have been to Dali, Lijiang and Banna), with Kunming as the center. It is recommended to go to Chuxiong, Honghe, and Baoshan. If you still have time, go to Dehong and Pu'er, which are further away.

Want to live in Yunnan for a month?

It may not be possible this year, because the country has entered the epidemic prevention and control period again!

If you come to Yunnan next spring, I recommend you to go to Dali. Although there are a lot of negative comments about Dali on the Internet, it is because it is your first time and you don’t know what to do!

I am from Dali and I am very familiar with Dali. Let me introduce it to you. It is best to come to Dali after April or May next year, because Dali is a famous windy city. The wind is very strong in winter, but it is nothing in April and May.

It's windy, but it's just a breeze. This season, the weather is sunny and breezey, and the climate is pleasant. If you want to rent an apartment in Dali, you have to go to Xiaguan City. Don't rent in Dali Ancient City. Everything in Dali Ancient City is expensive. As long as it's not the peak tourist season in Xiaguan City, you can rent an apartment in Dali.

There are many various houses for rent in the urban village. The price of the hotel is only 60 to 80 yuan per day. If you rent it for a month, it will be cheaper. There are all kinds of snacks and meals everywhere, which is very convenient.

Snacks are not expensive either. The snacks in Dali are mainly bait silk and rice noodles, which cost about ten yuan per bowl. It’s hard to say whether there are large meals, which range from hundreds to thousands. It all depends on your consumption.

Attractions in Xiaguan City include Jiangjun Cave (temple), Haixi Wetland (Erhai Moon), a cruise ship around the sea, and a bus fare of 2 yuan to the ancient city of Dali, from 6 am to 10 pm every day.
