Guandu, an ancient town. It has a history of 3,500 years and was prosperous during the Nanzhao period. It was once home to "six temples, seven pavilions, and eight temples", but many have been lost to time. Today, the Tang Tuzhu Temple, Song Fading Temple, Yuan Miaozhan Temple, and Ming Diamond Tower, all rebuilt during the Qing Dynasty, are humble and silent in the hustle and bustle of the world. Tang Huaihai Zen Master once said: "Stay if you have a connection, leave if you don't, let the breeze send the white clouds". That's it.

#chinatrip #kunming Kunming is a city that embodies relaxation and charm. I leisurely wandered through Guandu Ancient Town, which retained much of its traditional culture and cuisine. As evening fell and the lights came on, the town exuded an even more enchanting atmosphere. A must-visit spot was the famous yellow wall at Chaocha Mijiu, perfect for capturing memorable photos including a stop at the picturesque Duiyue Tower. Another serene spot was Green Lake Park, where I could unwind. The park’s willow-lined paths and tranquil waters made for a perfect escape from the city’s hustle and bustle. When I got tired, I visited the unique “Shangshan Hecha” tea shop for a refreshing break. This cozy tea shop, nestled in a quiet corner, was the perfect place to relax with a warm cup of tea. Beyond the well-trodden paths, I discovered hidden gems such as the vibrant local markets, where the colors and aromas of fresh produce and spices filled the air. The friendly locals, always ready with a smile, made the experience even more memorable. Kunming, with its blend of tradition and modernity, left a lasting impression on me. Whether it was the historic charm of Guandu Ancient Town, the scenic beauty of Green Lake Park, or the simple pleasure of sipping tea at “Shangshan Hecha,” every moment in this city was a delightful discovery.
