Kunming Two-Day Itinerary

Our trip was mainly to visit Shangri-La and Dali, initially thinking of Kunming as just a quick layover. But we found Kunming to be exceptionally fun🥹 We went out for dinner shortly after landing in the afternoon and checking into our hotel. We dined at the Border Canteen, which was really, really good; each dish was around 10 yuan on average, and the two of us ordered a large portion for just over 40 yuan. It was both affordable and delicious. After dinner, we visited the old streets of Kunming and the nearby Jinma Biji Square. There are many snacks on the old streets of Kunming, and compared to many tourist areas, the prices are quite cheap. The next morning, we went to the Haigeng Dam. My goodness, this place has more seagulls than people. But it's really super photogenic, and there are many aunties there offering to take photos, but we didn't ask any because we had no money😩 If you think there are too many people, you can keep walking forward; the further you go, the fewer people there are. We had lunch at the Shui Lu Ecological Museum. This place was also very crowded; we went there around 1 PM and had to queue for about half an hour. But their food is also very, very delicious. You must try the water fern vegetable and yellow throat!!! It's absolutely amazing. I fell in love with Yunnan cuisine; it's really, really good. In the afternoon, we went to the Laoyuhe Wetland Park. This park is a bit far from the city center; it took us about an hour to get there by taxi. But the scenery there is truly unbeatable, my friends. You must go when the sun is about to set. The sunset in Kunming is quite late, around 7 to 7:30 PM🌅 In conclusion, Kunming is really a great city with a nice climate, low cost of living, delicious food, and a pleasant environment.
