【Gejiu, a place that slows you down】

Today, I'm going to take you to a hidden treasure town in Yunnan - Gejiu. Here, it's spring all year round, the house prices are affordable, and the pace of life is slow, making it the perfect choice to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.🏡 📅 Day 1: The blend of nature and history Yuanyang Terraces: In the early morning, we start our day's journey from here. The greenery of spring, the golden splendor of autumn, each season has its own beauty. Remember to bring your camera to capture the charm of nature. Jianshui Ancient City: In the afternoon, stroll on the stone roads of the ancient city and feel the accumulation of history. Jianshui Seventeen-hole Bridge, Twin Dragon Bridge, each bridge has its own story. 📅 Day 2: Exploration of art and culture Mile Dongfengyun: This place is known as the "Provence" of central Yunnan, where art and nature blend perfectly. Every building seems to have walked out of a painting, making people linger. Bisezhai: Take the Jianshui small train, travel through time, and feel the weight of history. The French-style houses at Bisezhai Station seem to take you back to that romantic era. 📅 Day 3: Quiet and relaxing time Tuanshan Village: In this off-the-beaten-path ancient town, you can slow down and experience the leisurely life of southern Yunnan. Ancient bridges and buildings, each place reveals the traces of time. Jinhu: In the evening, come to the side of Jinhu, watch the sunset glow sprinkled on the lake, and enjoy this tranquility. 🚌 Travel Tips: Gejiu is about 200 kilometers away from Kunming. Self-driving or taking the intercity railway are good choices. Departing from Kunming, it takes about 3 hours by car or 130 minutes by train to reach this beautiful town. 🌄 Opening hours: Most attractions are open all day, but it is recommended to set off in the morning to have more time to enjoy the beauty of each place. 🍲 Food recommendation: The snacks in Gejiu are also not to be missed. The roadside rice noodles are affordable and delicious, and are a favorite of locals. Gejiu, this small town forgotten by time, is waiting for you to discover its story. Here, you can slow down and feel the true meaning of life.🌈
