Kunming Dounan Flower Market, you can't finish exploring it!! You just can't finish

Dounan Flower Market is huge, one floor is for fresh flowers and green plants, the second floor is for succulents and bead strings. Fresh flowers are very cheap, 10 yuan for 3 bunches is common, if you're short on time it's recommended to only visit the main venue - 🌟If you have more time after visiting the main venue, you can go to the peripheral areas such as the carnation trading area, sunflower area, rose area, hydrangea pavilion, and the nearby flower shops to take a look - 🌟Especially for plants, if you want to buy uncommon local floral materials, go to the foliage material area, which has local seasonal floral and fruit materials, as well as some imported floral materials, very beautiful - 📍Search for 'China Kunming Dounan Flower Market' in your navigation app ✅Transportation 🚇Take the subway line 4 to Jingui Street Station, exit B, and walk 200 meters to get there 🚗Navigate to 'Kunming Huadu Ocean World', there is an underground parking lot - ✅Dounan Flower Market🕐 9:00-18:00 (retail) 20:30-02:00 (wholesale) - 💐For tourists visiting Dounan Flower Market, these two time slots are recommended - 👉7:00-12:00 (morning market): In front of the Ocean Pavilion, during this time a lot of floral materials are brought directly from the farms, with a wide variety, and you can buy them for just a few yuan 👉After 5:30 (evening market): From around 5 or 6 o'clock to 8 o'clock, during this time the variety and quality of floral materials are good, the only downside is that the scene is quite chaotic, with many tricycles pulling fresh flowers. - ⚠️Please note: The main venue closes at 7:30 pm for 1 hour, and reopens after 8:30 pm, this one-hour closure is limited to inside the market, the periphery is not affected - ✅Mailing There is SF Express inside the market, starting from 20💰.
