Yunnan Journey: A Unique Experience Amidst the Crowds

🌸 One must set foot on the land of Yunnan at least once, even during the bustling peak season. This time, I opted for a different kind of 'commando-style' travel. Despite the throngs of people, I still reaped an abundance of happiness and memories. 🌈 First Stop: Lijiang Ancient Town 🏠 To avoid the noisy center of the ancient town, I chose a guesthouse outside the town, which was convenient for transportation and peaceful. In the afternoon, I strolled to Shuhe Ancient Town, feeling the profound history and splendid culture. Although the horse manure was a bit bothersome, the walking time under the blue sky and white clouds was enough to make up for everything. 🌈 Second Stop: Shangri-La 🏔️ The early morning high-speed train took me to this mysterious land. The distinctive architecture of Dukezong Ancient Town and the spectacular sight of the prayer wheels made it hard to leave. Although the place was crowded, the devotion and tranquility in my heart made it all worthwhile. 🌈 Third Stop: Dali 🌊 The crowded Dali, although not conducive to quietly appreciating its tranquility and beauty, allowed me to experience a different kind of liveliness and prosperity. Perhaps next time, I will choose the off-season to come back and truly feel the unique charm of this land. 🎉 Conclusion: Yunnan in the peak season, despite the inconvenient transportation and average facilities, the beautiful scenery and unique experiences are enough to make one forget all troubles. I look forward to my next trip to Yunnan, when I will choose an off-season to fully experience the tranquility and beauty of this land.🌈
