If Erhai Lake in Dali is too crowded, why not take a trip to "Fuxian Lake"?

Isn't it a regret not to see the sea in summer? If you don't have the chance to go to the seaside Then consider Fuxian Lake It's known as the "Jade of Central Yunnan" And Yunnan's "Little Maldives" - 🚗Transportation It takes about an hour to drive from Kunming For those who don't drive, it's recommended to take the bus🚌 (From Kunming South Station to Chengjiang) - Recommended attractions 💙Star Fish Cave 🌼The lake water is like jelly, crystal clear, with hundreds of ancient fish caves and springs, and a wealth of water activities. 💙Jiangchuan Gushan Island Scenic Area 🌼The only island on Fuxian Lake, with temples, ancient pagodas to visit, and dining and accommodation on the island. 💙Cliff Top Park 🌼A niche treasure park, overlooking Fuxian Lake, the scenery is beautiful, and you can enjoy a beautiful sunset in good weather.

Personally, I think Fuxian Lake is more suitable for leisure travel, leisurely playing in the water, playing in the sand, taking photos, eating delicious food, and lying flat. It's not quite suitable for commando-style tourism.

Fuxian Lake in Yunnan | Romantic people have their own utopia

"The mountains in Yunnan are rich in soil, hence many rivers are dammed to form lakes🌊, and among these, the waters are mostly turbid, only Fuxian Lake is the clearest"—Fuxian Lake, as described by Xu Xiake, is indeed the lake of my dreams! The water here is crystal clear to the bottom, and the gradient colors of the lake water are rich in layers, so beautiful it's almost criminal. Although it's not as famous as Erhai Lake, it is the largest deep freshwater lake in China, no wonder they say Yunnan has left Erhai Lake to the world, but kept Fuxian Lake for itself.

Originally thought the water was clear and colorless, but who knew that once drunk on Fuxian, one is immersed in a painting for a thousand autumns.

Fuxian Lake's Gushan Island, Gushan is not alone

Perhaps it's the guidance of fate. I just wanted to take a break on my way back from Shiping, and then, Fuxian Lake was the most suitable distance, so I came here. Before going to bed, the housekeeper specifically reminded me that there was a terrace upstairs where I could watch the sunrise. Then, I waited for the sunrise all night. At around five o'clock, there was some faint light outside the window. I got up and glanced at Fuxian Lake opposite, which was still a pale blue night, and it was still early. When I opened my eyes again, it was already bright, and I hurriedly opened the curtains. Ah, it's beautiful, the lake is sparkling, and there is a small island not far away, like a small boat. The sun poured into the room, the beautiful scenery entered my eyes and heart, and I felt like I was revived. At breakfast, I looked at the guide given by the housekeeper again, and it turned out that the small island was Gushan Island, and the opposite was Gushan that I always wanted to climb. The fun of not planning a trip is that you will always meet what you want unexpectedly. So, I boarded the boat to Gushan Island alone. Perhaps it was too early, or perhaps the name of Gushan was not in line with the New Year's thoughts. Anyway, I was the only one on the big boat, and I was the only one on the island at that moment, as if I had chartered the island. I walked aimlessly on the island, which was not a bustling island. There were ancient trees and pavilions, winding paths leading to secluded places, birds and wind. The couplet on the pavilion at the top of the peak is very interesting: 'Bright moon with loneliness, here to open up the heart will throw away endless troubles, not alone, not partisan, from the beginning to see the world let the great rivers and mountains into the embrace like a picture like a poem. Perhaps after the ancients felt sad about the moon, they finally let go. There is another couplet: 'A lonely peak embraces a fairyland, and the green water around refuses the red dust. I can't help but think that in ancient times, it was probably not easy to go to and from the island, so the physical isolation from the world might be the origin of the island's name. The mountains in the distance are like rouge, the wind on the lake makes the leaves rustle, the water birds are not afraid of people, they fly around on their own, and then land on the branches to watch me. In the quiet wind, you can faintly hear the pop songs playing at the entrance of the scenic area. Ha, nowadays, there are no deserted islands that can refuse the red dust. Standing at the highest point of the small island, overlooking this sea. In this journey of life, the end is the same. The heart decides where to go, loneliness and prosperity, each gets what they wish for. Collection
