💰Money-saving tips for Yunnan travel: 1⃣Use Kunming as the first stop, then take the high-speed train to other attractions from Kunming, where flights are more frequent and relatively cheaper. 2⃣Carry discount documents such as student IDs and military officer IDs, as most scenic spots in Yunnan offer corresponding discounts. 3⃣Clarify the attractions you want to visit in advance and plan your itinerary in a reasonable order to avoid unnecessary expenses due to back-and-forth travel. 4⃣Many attractions in Yunnan are far from the city center, so it's more economical to take a tourist bus than a taxi. 5⃣Hotel prices in Yunnan fluctuate greatly between the off-peak and peak seasons, so be sure to book accommodation in advance during the peak season. 6⃣Accommodation does not have to be inside the scenic area; hotels near the scenic area often offer better deals and are more convenient for travel. 7⃣Use a combination of buses/subways/taxis for transportation, which is much cheaper than taking taxis all the way. 8⃣For dining, you can purchase group meal deals on various platforms, which are more cost-effective than buying on-site. 9⃣Buy discounted airline tickets on member days of major airlines in advance, and purchasing round-trip tickets at once is more favorable. 10⃣Travel with companions to share the expenses. - 🌴Must-do things in Yunnan from July to August ✅Visit Baisha Ancient Town at the foot of the snow mountain, enjoy the view of the snow-capped mountains🏔 while sipping coffee and chatting. ✅Rent a vehicle to tour Erhai Lake, feel the breeze of Erhai🍃, and listen to its stories of the 'Four Beauties'. ✅Arrange two days to explore Lugu Lake, participate in a bonfire party at night, and gaze at the starry sky🌠 by the lake. ✅Experience a day in the life of a Dai girl in Xishuangbanna, wearing Dai ethnic clothing and strolling through the most beautiful night market. ✅Take a trip to Shangri-La to appreciate the charm of plateau lakes and primeval forests. ✅Wait for the sunrise over Meili Snow Mountain🌅, it is said that those who witness the sunrise will be lucky for the entire year. ✅Taste a bowl of authentic crossing-the-bridge noodles, creating an unforgettable culinary experience. 👉✅Travel Tips: Although Yunnan's attractions are beautiful, they are far apart and transportation is inconvenient.

Hydrate in time!! The ultraviolet rays in Yunnan are quite strong, and it's easy to get sunburned while playing outside, so apply sunscreen frequently, and wear sunglasses and sun hats👒; Yunnan is very dry, so hydrating masks🌵 are essential. 2⃣Many places in Yunnan are at high altitudes, so the elderly and children should remember to eat breakfast, drink plenty of water, and avoid strenuous exercise. 3⃣Do not bathe or wash your hair on the first day of arriving in high-altitude areas, and do not climb snow mountains🏔 when you have a cold, as it can easily trigger altitude sickness. 4⃣The temperature difference between day and night in Yunnan is significant, and it is still quite cold in the morning and evening. Rainy days can cause a sharp drop in temperature, so even in summer, you should prepare a set of warm clothes. 5⃣Yunnan is a multi-ethnic region, so learn about local customs and traditions before traveling, and respect the local culture and habits during your visit.
