Reason for recommendation: The author uses the pen as his eye and uses plain language to narrate, giving us the most down-to-earth impression of Kunming, the spring city. When reading the whole text, there is a kind of urban complex that "has no form but exists", giving readers a quiet and elegant sense of substitution and empathy.
I was "drunk" in Spring City in Kunming, and I invite you to enjoy the impression of Spring City. Muganan’s best recommendations and sharing!

Beautiful Spring City is my home, and safety and civilization depend on everyone.
In urban life, people come and go in a hurry. Kunming, the spring city, is more like a cold flower standing in the biting cold wind. The agility and beauty of the flower fairy make the weather here remain unchanged throughout the four seasons.
Kunming has always been known as the "Spring City". It is said that the four seasons are like spring and one rain becomes winter.
Whether it is winter or summer, you can always see people wrapped in down jackets and short-sleeved shorts walking together on the streets of Kunming. This should be regarded as a magical natural existence.
In the middle of winter, you will be surprised to see people wearing slippers, eating popsicles, talking and laughing with the people next to them; in the late summer, you will also see one or two women wrapped in cotton-padded jackets, I can't bear to sway my waist and walk with the sweaty pedestrians next to me, creating a scenery unique to Spring City.

Every city has its own old stories, new developments, and exclusive city business cards, and Kunming, the Spring City, is no exception!
Thousands of miles away, across thousands of mountains and rivers, the seagulls flying from Siberia are one of Kunming’s business cards!
In the winter in Kunming, you only need a thicker coat to breathe the fresh morning air, go to Huanxi Bridge, Grand View Tower, Green Lake and other places, and lean on the fence , watching the seagulls dancing in the sky. These red-billed gulls are already old friends to Kunming people. They are a group of old friends who have known each other for more than 30 years.
In fact, the first thing to occupy the Panlong River and Daguan River was not the red-billed gull, but the egret. I used to often see a large white bird in the Daguan River, but later I learned that it was an egret. The egret is a national second-level protected animal, and its value is much higher than that of the red-billed gull. However, the fate is shallow. The red-billed gull is "strong in numbers". When it comes, it drives away the egret. The egret "wants to cry but has no tears." You can only find another place!
Kunming people’s love for red-billed gulls is innate. During the epidemic last year, everyone consciously quarantined themselves at home. The red-billed gulls in Haigeng Dam, Huanxi Bridge and other places are in Kunming. It’s been a “lonely” year.
But how can Kunming people let go of these elves?
Many people spontaneously buy gull food and ask people to feed the red-billed gulls. Some people say that the red-billed gulls have traveled thousands of miles to Kunming, and they have to eat before they have the strength to fly back to Siberia. !
In fact, relevant government departments have already had countermeasures, asking professionals to put gull food into red-billed gulls. However, people with ulterior motives spread rumors everywhere, saying that red-billed gulls bring viruses. Can't watch anymore. The government once again took decisive action and conducted nucleic acid tests for red-billed gulls, breaking this rumor. However, it still reminds everyone that home isolation is the most important thing!
Kunming is far away from the sea, but it can attract seagulls. It rarely snows in Kunming, but it does not lack the whiteness of winter. Go to Kunming to see seagulls in winter. This unique scenery will not let you down.
Kunming is a city that even seagulls love!

Kunming’s beauty not only attracts little elves like red-billed gulls?
Kunming’s gourmet food is Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles. There is also a heartwarming story about Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles.
Legend has it that there was a scholar in Mengzi who went to the small island in the middle of the lake outside the city to study poetry and books every day. The scholar had a virtuous wife who prepared delicious meals for him every day and sent them to the island. However, the journey was long and the food in the food box became cold before it was delivered to the island.
One day, my wife cooked chicken soup for the scholar and put it next to the stove fire. Because she was tired, she fell into a deep sleep. When she woke up, it had been a long time. The wife hurriedly touched the chicken soup in the bowl and found it was still there. There was residual warmth, and she accidentally discovered that the layer of oil floating on the surface of the chicken soup had the effect of keeping it warm.
Later, the wife cooked chicken soup, cut thin slices of meat, fish fillets, rice noodles, eggs, and some necessary ingredients, and sent them to the small island in the middle of the lake outside the city for the scholar to eat. After eating some hot rice noodles, I felt refreshed and read more diligently.
Later, when he was named on the Scholarship List and became the top pick in high school, someone asked him, how did you succeed? The scholar said that he only went to high school after eating his wife's rice noodles. Later, my wife’s cross-bridge rice noodles became famous all over the world! And Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles has become another business card of Kunming!

In Kunming, there is also the Sleeping Beauty at Dragon Gate in Xishan Mountain, which is quiet and peaceful, allowing people to feel the beauty of tranquility in the grandeur; there are also the Three Bridges with Golden Horses and Jade Roosters, It is grand and majestic, allowing people to feel the unique craftsmanship in the plaque, understand the crystallization of wisdom, and enjoy the collision of souls. Everywhere, there are endless stories to tell and scenery to see!
In Kunming, we live on the red soil of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, and we cannot feel the mountains and rivers in the Northeast Plain, with thousands of miles of fertile fields; we cannot feel the fishing boats singing late in the night in the Jiangnan water towns, and the wild geese are frightened by the cold; nor The fragrance of fish and rice in Tianfu, Chengdu, comes in the coming and going of cold and summer; it is not as endless and pleasant scenery as the Hulunbuir Prairie.
But all of this does not affect my love and attachment for the hot land under my feet.
In Kunming, there are only four seasons like spring, a warm cradle, and honest and lovely people.
This piece of red land gives us dreams and strength, endless and long-lasting.
