Wolong Ancient Fishing Village.

Wolong Ancient Fishing Village in Kunming is free to visit, only parking fees are charged. It is located at the foot of Qixing Mountain in Chenggong District, on the east bank of Dianchi Lake. It is an ancient village with a history of more than 600 years. It was formerly known as Wolongpu, named after the stone inscription "The mountain is like a sleeping dragon, and the sea is near, so it is called Pu" in the Chuien Temple in the village. It used to be a dock for personnel and material exchanges between the east and west banks of Dianchi Lake. At night, the lights of fishing boats and the stars and moon in the sky reflect each other, forming the beautiful scenery of "Fishing Pu Star Lamp", which has become one of the eight scenic spots in old Chenggong. Wolong Ancient Fishing Village is famous for its unique "one seal" architecture, which is lined up in the village, accounting for 45% of the total number of buildings in the village.
