I just came back from Yunnan and I don’t know whether I should talk or not

1. If time is tight, I suggest you arrange one day in Kunming as a transfer station, leaving more time for Dali and Lijiang , Shangri-La, Banna

2. If you have a cold, it is not recommended to go to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Shangri-La. It is easy to be life-threatening. You can prepare some cold medicine and drink it at the first sign of a cold. You should also wear more warm clothes. !Don’t try hard for beauty, and don’t drink the night before

3. It’s best to bring bottled samples of skin care products. First, it can reduce the weight, and second, it can prevent the tubular skin care products from exploding due to the strong pressure of the altitude

4. Whether it is around the ancient city of Lijiang or at the foot of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, there are locals soliciting tourists. They advise tourists to "horse a horse up the mountain to see the panoramic view". Don't believe it. There is no safety guarantee for such services, and horse riding is You will never go to the top of the mountain

5. The 100-yuan 10-pack of flower cakes is really not delicious. It is better to buy freshly baked ones, which are more fragrant and authentic

6. Go to the snow-capped mountains Buy oxygen bottles in advance. You can buy them yourself at pharmacies around the ancient city. The cheapest one costs 15 yuan per bottle. Don’t listen to taxi drivers or Didi drivers who say that a bottle of oxygen is not enough and they will take you to buy it. It’s expensive

7. Don’t take a one-day trip to the ancient city! We will arrange many attractions for you in one day. It sounds like a good deal, but it’s not. I didn’t see anything, and it didn’t even count as a quick tour. I was still tired to death at the end of the day

8. When going to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, you must prepare some high-calorie, Relatively light foods, such as chocolate, beef jerky, candies, etc., are very physically demanding to climb mountains at high altitudes

9. You must take the Glacier Park Ropeway. You must make a real-name reservation in advance. There are specific times. It’s a section. It’s best not to go in and out too much at the scheduled time when riding. You also need to swipe your ID card

10. Don’t go to Lijiang Old Town too early. The ancient town is only lively at night. You can go to Sifang Street Go shopping, this is the busiest place in Lijiang Old Town. If you want to eat delicious food and visit folk bars, you can go to Wuyi Street. Don't trust those who take the initiative to chat with you. Nine times out of ten, they are just asking for help. Remember to prepare some food in the evening, all shops will close before twelve o'clock in the evening

11. Don't just enter the bar in the ancient city, and don't be coaxed in by the lady at the door. The menu inside is super expensive. It’s more than 200 for a few drinks. If you can buy in a group, please consider again

12. The electric car will be very sunny when going around the Erhai Lake. The same is true in winter. The power of the electric car can’t support the other side. For a distance of 10 kilometers, it is best to rent a jeep. If you only plan to go around part of the way, be sure to rent a high-power battery car, which costs about 80 a day.

13. Don’t take a one-day trip to Hugu Lake. One day is simply not enough for fun. It’s best to arrange a one-day trip to make it lonely. 2 days, stay one night, attend the fire dance party in the evening, and watch the very romantic sunrise the next day~

14. Clothes in Lijiang Old Town are very cheap, skirts are around 70, don’t buy special shawls over 40 , be sure to bargain!

15. There will be aunts in the ancient city of Yunnan who recommend their inn, saying that it is close to Erhai Lake and you can see the sea view. It takes 20 minutes to walk to eat, and the accommodation environment is even worse

16. In the ancient city of Dali, you can stay at the inn in the south gate. It is cheap and convenient, and you can reach the ancient city in a few steps.

17. It is strongly not recommended to take the 50 yuan sightseeing bus in Blue Moon Valley. The distance is very short and the time is completely sufficient. It is better to waste time waiting for the bus than to enjoy the scenery along the way on foot

18. The sun in Yunnan in winter is also It’s very big. If you go to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, the ice and snow will reflect the sun very strongly. You must wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from hurting them

19. On rainy days, you don’t need to consider going to Banna’s Primeval Forest Park because the The special performance "Peacock Release" is canceled on rainy days. This is the highlight of the scenic spot. The peacock flying time is 9:10, 10:10, 11:10, 12:10, 13:10, 14:40, 15:50, 17:10 every day, eight games, each game is 20 minutes

< p>20. It takes at least 3 hours to visit Erhai Lake and Pudacuo National Park. It is recommended to bring your own food and water. It is inconvenient and too expensive to find food.

21. Cangshan Mountain can be viewed from a distance. Recommended It’s not interesting to go up the mountain to watch it in Waise Town.

22. You can choose between Nanzhao Fengqing Island and Luoquan Peninsula. The scenic spots are similar in style, so there is no need to check in at both, which is a waste of time

23. Don’t sign the merit book, otherwise the merit fee will be at least 100 yuan. You must pay for the incense and prayer cards at your own expense. Do not randomly receive the prayer cards. If you meet a monk who takes the initiative to say hello on the road, ignore them. They will ask you Need money

24. I just arrived at Shangri-La and need to get used to it. Don’t go to Pudacuo Park right away. It’s easy to get high.

25. Jade Dragon Snow Mountain needs to be adjusted from the moment you take the cable car. You need to inhale oxygen, otherwise it will be useless if you get high in the later stage.

Share some tips for relieving high fever: eat sweets, drink warm water, don’t run or jump, supplement vitamin C, and stay protected from wind, remember!

26. There are many ticket sellers in Xishuangbanna, please buy tickets directly at tourist destinations , don’t buy tickets with people you don’t know

28. It is highly recommended by the Dai people to grab rice with their hands. The correct way to eat it is to grab it with gloves. 29. There is no need to buy scarves and tie-dyes in scenic spots. Scarves and tie-dye square scarves are sold everywhere in Yunnan. , it is much more expensive to buy in scenic spots

30. Dai costume photography at Starlight Night Market is priced at 199, 299, 399. The final result of the film depends on luck. If you meet a good photographer, you will get good-looking pictures. There were so many people queuing up that I didn’t take a few photos during the whole process. You could just buy a set of Dai clothes and take photos while visiting the night market
