I happened to be back in Melbourne during Yayoi Kusama's polka dot exhibition, and I definitely couldn't miss it. Many exhibits are being shown in Australia for the first time, and the popularity is evident in the fact that tickets need to be purchased several days in advance. 🎫 How to book: This exhibition is extremely popular, so be sure to purchase tickets in advance on the NGV's official website to avoid sell-outs. If you prefer a less crowded viewing experience, it's recommended to book the earliest time slot, around 9:00 am, when there are the fewest people. 💰 AUD 38 ❤️ Must-see photo spots: Most of the amazing photo opportunities are in Part 2. 1️⃣ World premiere! The stunning new work - the kaleidoscopic Infinity Mirrored Room. It's like stepping into a parallel universe! 2️⃣ Australian premiere! The 5-meter-tall sculpture "Dancing Pumpkin" is super cute and incredibly photogenic. 3️⃣ Classic polka dot paintings + immersive mirror rooms + psychedelic sculptures - every room is a great photo op. 4️⃣ Pumpkin Mirror Room: There's a queue, and each person only has about 20 seconds to look around. You won't have time to use a camera here, so it's recommended to use your phone to take pictures through the small opening. 📌 Exhibition tips: 1️⃣ Attire: It's recommended to wear form-fitting clothing in solid colors (black, white, beige, or other low-saturation colors). The exhibition is full of highly saturated colors and patterns, which might be overwhelming for those with trypophobia. 2️⃣ Viewing order: You can scan your ticket and enter up to half an hour before your entry time. You must visit Part 1 before Part 2. If you see Part 2 first, you won't be able to go back to Part 1, as tickets are scanned separately for each part. 3️⃣ Bring a friend who's good at taking photos, and be patient. The popular spots require quick shots and waiting. 4️⃣ There are also many photo opportunities in the public areas on the first floor. You can take photos for free with a pumpkin sculpture, a field of silver balls, and the polka dot balloons hanging from the ceiling in the rest area. 5️⃣ The exhibition merchandise is also great. I ended up buying a polka dot backpack and a makeup bag. 📍 National Gallery of Victoria ⏰ Dates: December 15, 2024–April 21, 2025, 9:00 am–5:00 pm

Hey guys! You absolutely must visit Anji! Missing out on Yunshang Grassland would be heartbreaking 😭! Just a 50-minute drive from Hangzhou, you’ll reach this hidden gem in northern Zhejiang at an altitude of 1,186 meters. At the mountain peaks lies a stunning grassland bordering a thousand-foot-deep canyon—standing there feels like you can almost touch the clouds. I was super lucky on my visit: within a single day, the weather cycled through sunshine, clouds, rain, and mist, each scene looking like it had special effects, making every penny worth it! ✨ Travel is an art of timing. As a "veteran" who’s visited Anji ten times, here’s your ultimate guide—save it now! 📅 Best Times to Visit ☁️ Sea of Clouds: Sunny spring and summer days, especially right after rain, when the air is clear and humid, offer the highest chance of witnessing a breathtaking sea of clouds—perfect for dreamy photos! 🌡️ Comfortable Temperatures: At over 1,000 meters above sea level, it’s about 6°C cooler than ground level. When it’s 30°C below, it’s just 24°C up here—cool and refreshing, so you can play freely without sweating! 🌇 Golden Hour: After 4 PM on sunny days, the grassland glows with soft, radiant light, instantly evoking the vast vibes of the Northwest—absolutely perfect for photos! 🎢 Two Core Areas & Itineraries 🍃 Highland Grassland: Rainbow Slide → Immortal Town → Hobbit Town → Childlike Valley 🏔️ Cliffside Adventure Park: Cloud Swing → Sky Walk/Aerial Bike → Crystal Skywalk → Bird’s Nest → Stone Candle → Glass Walkway → Via Ferrata → Sky Ladder/Swing → Heart-Pounding Steps → Cloud Trail → Sea of Clouds Promenade → Sea of Clouds Bridge 🌟 Must-Try Activities 1.

Come to Anji Yunshang Grassland and unlock the ultimate mix of cliffside romance and adventure!

For the last few days of this trip, I decided to spend them leisurely at the second Aman resort on the southern coast of Sri Lanka. The space and natural scenery are beautiful, but the service is indeed below Aman standards. - In terms of design, Amanwella is the work of in-house designer Kerry Hill, and the design techniques show a great degree of respect for Geoffrey Bawa. From the hotel gate, Bawa's favorite lines are used without concealment. Whether in the public areas or guest rooms, the designer clearly blurs the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces through sliding doors, revolving doors, and a large number of hollow partitions, allowing the interior space to be more integrated into the natural environment. The red roof of the hotel may be a tribute to the iconic traditional Sri Lankan clay tile "Kandyan roof". Integrating traditional culture with modernism is also a major architectural concept of Bawa's works. The space element I like most in the entire hotel is the cloister at the entrance. In addition to its highly symmetrical aesthetics, the large areas of blank walls seem to give nature full play. In the afternoon, the sunlight casts the shadows of the vegetation onto the walls, poetically enriching the space with life. - In terms of service, it is quite disappointing. First of all, the ghostly room service that Aman should have does not exist at Amanwella. I encountered housekeeping several times. One day, after having breakfast and spending two or three hours at the pool, I returned to the room and found that it had not been cleaned. Even after staying for four days, many of the staff did not know our room number. Also an Aman in Sri Lanka, the service at Amangalla can be described as attentive. After checking in, I was never asked for my room number, and the butler would ask me every day if my cold was getting better. The cave tour in the reserved package was also forgotten when it came to arranging a time for us. Although we didn't plan to go anyway, they should have at least discussed our itinerary. In terms of hardware, the guest rooms are very noisy due to the sound of the waves, so I suggest that light sleepers remember to bring earplugs. The mosquito and insect prevention in the rooms is not very good, and ants crawl on the bed every day. It can be said that the service at Amanwella is rather lazy and does not meet Aman standards. - The experiences and activities here are still relatively rich. There are three national parks where you can go on safari, and there are many choices for marine activities, as well as local cultural experiences. On the second day of our stay, we went on a safari in Yala National Park. We had to leave very early, and the hotel prepared a breakfast box. On the way to the national park, we saw a beautiful sunrise. It is a pity that we did not see a Ceylon leopard. We originally planned to do some light surfing, but the waves were quite big these few days, so we gave up the marine activities. Amanwella Hotel

I recently discovered a super treasure travel destination - JianShui, Yunnan! There are no crowds of people at popular attractions. Only a slow pace of life and a strong sense of everyday life. It's simply a breath of fresh air in the tourism industry! - 🚗 Transportation: You can first go to Kunming, then take a bullet train to JianShui, or you can drive yourself. 📝 Travel Guide: 🏯 JianShui Ancient City As soon as you step into JianShui Ancient City, it's like traveling back to ancient times in an instant. The ancient city hides the most authentic atmosphere of JianShui, with bluestone roads connecting the streets and alleys. 🚂 JianShui Train You must take the JianShui Train! This is one of the few meter-gauge trains in the country, slowly traveling through picturesque scenery, as if time has slowed down. Lin'an Station 🚂: The train starts here. The station is a retro Republic of China-style building. The wooden structure is matched with old photos, full of ritual, and the photos are super beautiful. Remember to take more photos 📸 🌉 Shuanglong Bridge Also known as the Seventeen-Arch Bridge, this is a landmark landscape of JianShui. Spanning the intersection of the Lujiang River and the Tachong River, it looks magnificent from a distance. There are three bridge corridors on the bridge, the middle one is large and the two sides are small, with a unique design. At dusk, the setting sun shines on the bridge, and the water is sparkling, so beautiful that you can't speak, and the photos are super beautiful! 🚉 Xianghuiqiao Station Xianghuiqiao Station is full of French style. French architecture and Chinese retro style are perfectly integrated, which is very photogenic! The roof of the station is a Chinese-style roof ridge with black tiles, but the exterior wall is a French-style stone castle. Although it is a bit old, it has a more historical flavor. 🚉 Tuanshan Station Tuanshan Station is the last stop of the train. The station building combines Chinese and Western styles and is very distinctive. From here, you can visit Tuanshan residential buildings. Most of the Tuanshan residential buildings were built in the late Qing Dynasty, with typical "three courtyards and one screen wall" and "four courtyards and five patios" forms, with white walls and black tiles, exquisite and beautiful.

🚗Day 1: West Lake Classic Loop + Night Tour of Hefang Street 🌅Morning: West Lake Highlights ① Broken Bridge: Arrive before 7 AM to avoid crowds and experience the romantic setting of "Legend of the White Snake."

Visit Xiling Seal Society (perfect photo spot with red walls and dark tiles). ③ Hand-rowed Boat Tour: Choose the "Guozhuang to Maojiabu" route (about 180 yuan/hour), glide through reed marshes, encounter ducks and water lilies, while boatmen share vivid West Lake legends. 🍜Lunch Recommendations: Lou Wai Lou (must-try West Lake Vinegar Fish and Dongpo Pork), or try Dragon Well Shrimp at "Tea Village" on Beishan Street. 🌇Afternoon: Leifeng Pagoda + Su Causeway ① Leifeng Pagoda: Climb for panoramic views of West Lake, best at sunset for amazing light and shadows.

Transportation: West Lake scenic area has weekend traffic restrictions! Subway + shared bikes are most convenient; taking a taxi to Lingyin Temple is recommended (about 30 yuan). 2. Avoiding Tourist Traps: Choose "hand-rowed boats" or "oar boats" on West Lake, avoid motorboats (poor experience); Silk shops on Hefang Street are mostly for tourists - buy authentic silk at "Wensli" flagship stores. 3.

Super comprehensive travel guide for Qarhan Salt Lake, hit the road after reading! Qarhan Salt Lake, China's largest salt lake, covers a vast area of 5800 square kilometers, 56 times the size of Chaka Salt Lake. It's beautiful with few people, as stunning as a dreamlike fairyland! Here, you can see unique landscapes like salt flowers, salt bridges, and salt sculptures. The lake water is an emerald green like apple soda, and any casual shot turns into a masterpiece. I. Transportation Guide 1. Self-driving: Starting from Golmud, take the G3011 Liuge Expressway, and you can arrive in about 1.5 hours. The road condition is good, and you can also enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Gobi highway along the way, with any casual shot becoming a highway masterpiece. Self-driving cars can only be parked outside the scenic area, and you need to transfer to the scenic area bus to enter. The seats on the right side inside the bus offer better views. 2. Public Transportation: ◦ At Zhufeng Building on the east side of Kunlun Square in Golmud city, there are factory commuter buses going there, about one every hour, with a fare of 15 - 20 yuan. ◦ Taking a taxi round trip from Golmud city costs about 150 yuan and can take you directly to the Salt Lake Museum. ◦ There is a train from Golmud to Qarhan at 9:00 every day, with a ticket price of 8.5 yuan, but it is still some distance from the scenic area after getting off the train. II. Consumption Guide 1. Ticket Price: Peak season (May - October) 100 yuan/person, off-season (November - April) prices are slightly lower. The ticket includes the scenic area bus fee. 2. Discount Policy: Children under 1.2 meters, seniors over 70 years old, soldiers, people with disabilities, etc., are exempt from tickets; students and minors aged 6 - 18 enjoy half-price tickets; tourists from Zhejiang province are exempt from tickets with their ID card, only needing to purchase the bus/sightseeing vehicle ticket. 3. Other Costs: Round trip sightseeing vehicle 30 yuan; glass boat photo 30 yuan/person; drone rental price depends on the model; there are also some local snacks and souvenirs sold in the scenic area, the prices are reasonable and not too outrageous. III. Play Guide 1. Best Time to Visit: June - October is the golden season, July - September the climate is pleasant and the lake water color is most vibrant. It is recommended to visit after 3 PM daily, when the light is soft and you can capture the most beautiful reflection effects; there are fewer people in the morning and it is quieter, but the temperature is lower. Note that when the sun is directly overhead at noon, the lake surface reflects strongly, making it easy to overexpose portraits, so remember to bring sunglasses. 2. Must-visit Attractions: ◦ Ten Thousand Zhang Salt Bridge: A road 32 kilometers long, completely paved with salt, with a hardness comparable to asphalt roads. When the road surface is damaged, pouring some brine can automatically repair it. Standing on the bridge, there is an endless salt lake on both sides, and on a sunny day, the sky is reflected in it, which is breathtakingly beautiful. ◦ Salt Flower Spectacle: Salt crystals formed by the evaporation of lake water, with strange and varied shapes, some like coral, some like pavilions and towers, and some like birds and beasts. The best viewing spot is near the Salt Lake Museum, which also houses precious "Salt Lake Oddity" crystal specimens. ◦ Lakeside Swing: White swings are set up by the lush green lake, swaying gently in the wind, creating a perfect photo atmosphere! It is recommended to wear brightly colored dresses, but remember to bring a jacket, as the wind is strong and the temperature is low by the lake. ◦ Reef Cluster: Salt reef clusters of various shapes, as if in a fantasy landscape of an alien planet, with excellent aerial photography effects, capable of capturing a spectacular scene like "Thousand Island Lake". ◦ Salt Lake Museum: Free to enter, here you can learn about the history of the salt lake's formation and the mining process. The salt flower crystals displayed in the museum are beautiful, and the "Salt Lake Oddity" at the entrance is a popular photo spot. 3. Tour Route: Take the scenic shuttle bus for 30 minutes to enter the scenic area (sit on the right side when entering). After getting off, you can choose to walk or take the sightseeing vehicle to tour the salt lake, the round trip is 4 kilometers. The sightseeing vehicle is 15 yuan/person for a single trip. It is recommended to take the vehicle there and walk back, as the scenery is better later on, and there are fewer people, making it better for photos. IV. Accommodation Guide There are almost no accommodation facilities around Qarhan Salt Lake. Most tourists choose to stay in Golmud city, where there are many cost-effective accommodation options: 1. Chain hotels like Hanting/Home Inn: Clean and hygienic, affordable prices, generally 200 - 300 yuan per night. 2. Local B&Bs: You can experience more authentic Qinghai life, and the prices are also relatively affordable, you can find decent conditions for around 200 yuan. Remember to book in advance, especially during the peak tourist season from July to September. Choose hotels close to Kunlun Square for convenient access to the early commuter bus.

Lake Tekapo is really well-deserved. When I saw it on a sunny day, I couldn't believe my eyes. It was so blue that I doubted my life! 💙 Many people think the lake is not blue just because the weather is not right! A sunny day will definitely shock you! No need to edit! Here are a few places I recommend, you can follow my route, I strongly recommend you to go, you can take 800 photos!!! 1️⃣ Go to "Astro Cafe" in the morning. This coffee is amazing! I would call it "the most beautiful cafe on earth" ☕ The most worthwhile place in Tekapo! No objection! The cafe is located at the "University of Canterbury Observatory", you must go here first, because it is only open until 2 pm, and vehicles entering the observatory need to queue, but we only waited for 20 mins, not too long... You can order some food and drinks to take pictures on the table, just learn from me how to take pictures hahaha 📸 (It is said to be open only on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so we went on Friday to be safe) 2️⃣ There is a ⛰ big rock a few steps down from the cafe!!! You must go! A great place to take photos! I am tired of saying it, you will regret it if you don't go... 3️⃣ Then go to "Lake McGregor Campervan Site", a treasure place discovered by our group. The trees 🌲 by the lake are very beautiful. Sisters with good balance can sit on the trees to take pictures, like the movie poster of "Flipped"! 4️⃣ After going down the mountain, go to "Church of the Good Shepherd ⛪️", which is also a must-see church in Tekapo! You can walk to the lake from the church, and there are many lupines 🌸 this season, which are super beautiful~ 5️⃣ If you want to have fine dining for dinner, you can go to "Dark Sky Diner" 🍽 with a good view. If you don't care about the environment, you can go to "Ramen Tekapo" 🍜. Asian food is not bad, which comforted my Chinese stomach!

I happened to be back in Melbourne during Yayoi Kusama's polka dot exhibition, and I definitely couldn't miss it. Many exhibits are being shown in Australia for the first time, and the popularity is evident in the fact that tickets need to be purchased several days in advance. 🎫 How to book: This exhibition is extremely popular, so be sure to purchase tickets in advance on the NGV's official website to avoid sell-outs. If you prefer a less crowded viewing experience, it's recommended to book the earliest time slot, around 9:00 am, when there are the fewest people. 💰 AUD 38 ❤️ Must-see photo spots: Most of the amazing photo opportunities are in Part 2. 1️⃣ World premiere! The stunning new work - the kaleidoscopic Infinity Mirrored Room. It's like stepping into a parallel universe! 2️⃣ Australian premiere! The 5-meter-tall sculpture "Dancing Pumpkin" is super cute and incredibly photogenic. 3️⃣ Classic polka dot paintings + immersive mirror rooms + psychedelic sculptures - every room is a great photo op. 4️⃣ Pumpkin Mirror Room: There's a queue, and each person only has about 20 seconds to look around. You won't have time to use a camera here, so it's recommended to use your phone to take pictures through the small opening. 📌 Exhibition tips: 1️⃣ Attire: It's recommended to wear form-fitting clothing in solid colors (black, white, beige, or other low-saturation colors). The exhibition is full of highly saturated colors and patterns, which might be overwhelming for those with trypophobia. 2️⃣ Viewing order: You can scan your ticket and enter up to half an hour before your entry time. You must visit Part 1 before Part 2. If you see Part 2 first, you won't be able to go back to Part 1, as tickets are scanned separately for each part. 3️⃣ Bring a friend who's good at taking photos, and be patient. The popular spots require quick shots and waiting. 4️⃣ There are also many photo opportunities in the public areas on the first floor. You can take photos for free with a pumpkin sculpture, a field of silver balls, and the polka dot balloons hanging from the ceiling in the rest area. 5️⃣ The exhibition merchandise is also great. I ended up buying a polka dot backpack and a makeup bag. 📍 National Gallery of Victoria ⏰ Dates: December 15, 2024–April 21, 2025, 9:00 am–5:00 pm

Hey guys! You absolutely must visit Anji! Missing out on Yunshang Grassland would be heartbreaking 😭! Just a 50-minute drive from Hangzhou, you’ll reach this hidden gem in northern Zhejiang at an altitude of 1,186 meters. At the mountain peaks lies a stunning grassland bordering a thousand-foot-deep canyon—standing there feels like you can almost touch the clouds. I was super lucky on my visit: within a single day, the weather cycled through sunshine, clouds, rain, and mist, each scene looking like it had special effects, making every penny worth it! ✨ Travel is an art of timing. As a "veteran" who’s visited Anji ten times, here’s your ultimate guide—save it now! 📅 Best Times to Visit ☁️ Sea of Clouds: Sunny spring and summer days, especially right after rain, when the air is clear and humid, offer the highest chance of witnessing a breathtaking sea of clouds—perfect for dreamy photos! 🌡️ Comfortable Temperatures: At over 1,000 meters above sea level, it’s about 6°C cooler than ground level.

Come to Anji Yunshang Grassland and unlock the ultimate mix of cliffside romance and adventure!

For the last few days of this trip, I decided to spend them leisurely at the second Aman resort on the southern coast of Sri Lanka. The space and natural scenery are beautiful, but the service is indeed below Aman standards. - In terms of design, Amanwella is the work of in-house designer Kerry Hill, and the design techniques show a great degree of respect for Geoffrey Bawa. From the hotel gate, Bawa's favorite lines are used without concealment. Whether in the public areas or guest rooms, the designer clearly blurs the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces through sliding doors, revolving doors, and a large number of hollow partitions, allowing the interior space to be more integrated into the natural environment. The red roof of the hotel may be a tribute to the iconic traditional Sri Lankan clay tile "Kandyan roof". Integrating traditional culture with modernism is also a major architectural concept of Bawa's works. The space element I like most in the entire hotel is the cloister at the entrance. In addition to its highly symmetrical aesthetics, the large areas of blank walls seem to give nature full play. In the afternoon, the sunlight casts the shadows of the vegetation onto the walls, poetically enriching the space with life. - In terms of service, it is quite disappointing. First of all, the ghostly room service that Aman should have does not exist at Amanwella. I encountered housekeeping several times. One day, after having breakfast and spending two or three hours at the pool, I returned to the room and found that it had not been cleaned. Even after staying for four days, many of the staff did not know our room number. Also an Aman in Sri Lanka, the service at Amangalla can be described as attentive. After checking in, I was never asked for my room number, and the butler would ask me every day if my cold was getting better. The cave tour in the reserved package was also forgotten when it came to arranging a time for us. Although we didn't plan to go anyway, they should have at least discussed our itinerary. In terms of hardware, the guest rooms are very noisy due to the sound of the waves, so I suggest that light sleepers remember to bring earplugs. The mosquito and insect prevention in the rooms is not very good, and ants crawl on the bed every day. It can be said that the service at Amanwella is rather lazy and does not meet Aman standards. - The experiences and activities here are still relatively rich. There are three national parks where you can go on safari, and there are many choices for marine activities, as well as local cultural experiences. On the second day of our stay, we went on a safari in Yala National Park. We had to leave very early, and the hotel prepared a breakfast box. On the way to the national park, we saw a beautiful sunrise. It is a pity that we did not see a Ceylon leopard. We originally planned to do some light surfing, but the waves were quite big these few days, so we gave up the marine activities. Amanwella Hotel

I recently discovered a super treasure travel destination - JianShui, Yunnan! There are no crowds of people at popular attractions. Only a slow pace of life and a strong sense of everyday life. It's simply a breath of fresh air in the tourism industry! - 🚗 Transportation: You can first go to Kunming, then take a bullet train to JianShui, or you can drive yourself. 📝 Travel Guide: 🏯 JianShui Ancient City As soon as you step into JianShui Ancient City, it's like traveling back to ancient times in an instant. The ancient city hides the most authentic atmosphere of JianShui, with bluestone roads connecting the streets and alleys. 🚂 JianShui Train You must take the JianShui Train! This is one of the few meter-gauge trains in the country, slowly traveling through picturesque scenery, as if time has slowed down. Lin'an Station 🚂: The train starts here. The station is a retro Republic of China-style building. The wooden structure is matched with old photos, full of ritual, and the photos are super beautiful. Remember to take more photos 📸 🌉 Shuanglong Bridge Also known as the Seventeen-Arch Bridge, this is a landmark landscape of JianShui. Spanning the intersection of the Lujiang River and the Tachong River, it looks magnificent from a distance. There are three bridge corridors on the bridge, the middle one is large and the two sides are small, with a unique design. At dusk, the setting sun shines on the bridge, and the water is sparkling, so beautiful that you can't speak, and the photos are super beautiful! 🚉 Xianghuiqiao Station Xianghuiqiao Station is full of French style. French architecture and Chinese retro style are perfectly integrated, which is very photogenic! The roof of the station is a Chinese-style roof ridge with black tiles, but the exterior wall is a French-style stone castle. Although it is a bit old, it has a more historical flavor. 🚉 Tuanshan Station Tuanshan Station is the last stop of the train. The station building combines Chinese and Western styles and is very distinctive. From here, you can visit Tuanshan residential buildings. Most of the Tuanshan residential buildings were built in the late Qing Dynasty, with typical "three courtyards and one screen wall" and "four courtyards and five patios" forms, with white walls and black tiles, exquisite and beautiful.

🚗Day 1: West Lake Classic Loop + Night Tour of Hefang Street 🌅Morning: West Lake Highlights ① Broken Bridge: Arrive before 7 AM to avoid crowds and experience the romantic setting of "Legend of the White Snake." The rowing boats in the morning mist against the lake scenery resemble a Chinese ink painting. ② Bai Causeway Stroll: Walk from Broken Bridge along Bai Causeway to Solitary Hill, passing by "Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake." Visit Xiling Seal Society (perfect photo spot with red walls and dark tiles). ③ Hand-rowed Boat Tour: Choose the "Guozhuang to Maojiabu" route (about 180 yuan/hour), glide through reed marshes, encounter ducks and water lilies, while boatmen share vivid West Lake legends. 🍜Lunch Recommendations: Lou Wai Lou (must-try West Lake Vinegar Fish and Dongpo Pork), or try Dragon Well Shrimp at "Tea Village" on Beishan Street. 🌇Afternoon: Leifeng Pagoda + Su Causeway ① Leifeng Pagoda: Climb for panoramic views of West Lake, best at sunset for amazing light and shadows.

Transportation: West Lake scenic area has weekend traffic restrictions! Subway + shared bikes are most convenient; taking a taxi to Lingyin Temple is recommended (about 30 yuan). 2. Avoiding Tourist Traps: Choose "hand-rowed boats" or "oar boats" on West Lake, avoid motorboats (poor experience); Silk shops on Hefang Street are mostly for tourists - buy authentic silk at "Wensli" flagship stores. 3. Money-saving Tips: Half-price admission on Wednesdays (Lingyin Temple, Xixi Wetland, etc.); Hangzhou Culture & Tourism Card (99 yuan/year) offers free entry to 50+ attractions. 4. Outfit Suggestions: Wear Hanfu/qipao at West Lake, plain clothes at Lingyin Temple, and bring mosquito repellent for Xixi Wetland. 💡Summary: From West Lake's morning mist to Songcheng's evening lights, from Lingyin's sandalwood incense to the sound of oars on the Grand Canal, Hangzhou lets you understand the poetic beauty and vibrant life of this "Paradise on Earth" in just three days!

Super comprehensive travel guide for Qarhan Salt Lake, hit the road after reading! Qarhan Salt Lake, China's largest salt lake, covers a vast area of 5800 square kilometers, 56 times the size of Chaka Salt Lake. It's beautiful with few people, as stunning as a dreamlike fairyland!

The road condition is good, and you can also enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Gobi highway along the way, with any casual shot becoming a highway masterpiece.

Public Transportation: ◦ At Zhufeng Building on the east side of Kunlun Square in Golmud city, there are factory commuter buses going there, about one every hour, with a fare of 15 - 20 yuan. ◦ Taking a taxi round trip from Golmud city costs about 150 yuan and can take you directly to the Salt Lake Museum. ◦ There is a train from Golmud to Qarhan at 9:00 every day, with a ticket price of 8.5 yuan, but it is still some distance from the scenic area after getting off the train. II. Consumption Guide 1. Ticket Price: Peak season (May - October) 100 yuan/person, off-season (November - April) prices are slightly lower. The ticket includes the scenic area bus fee. 2. Discount Policy: Children under 1.2 meters, seniors over 70 years old, soldiers, people with disabilities, etc., are exempt from tickets; students and minors aged 6 - 18 enjoy half-price tickets; tourists from Zhejiang province are exempt from tickets with their ID card, only needing to purchase the bus/sightseeing vehicle ticket. 3. Other Costs: Round trip sightseeing vehicle 30 yuan; glass boat photo 30 yuan/person; drone rental price depends on the model; there are also some local snacks and souvenirs sold in the scenic area, the prices are reasonable and not too outrageous. III. Play Guide 1. Best Time to Visit: June - October is the golden season, July - September the climate is pleasant and the lake water color is most vibrant. It is recommended to visit after 3 PM daily, when the light is soft and you can capture the most beautiful reflection effects; there are fewer people in the morning and it is quieter, but the temperature is lower. Note that when the sun is directly overhead at noon, the lake surface reflects strongly, making it easy to overexpose portraits, so remember to bring sunglasses. 2. Must-visit Attractions: ◦ Ten Thousand Zhang Salt Bridge: A road 32 kilometers long, completely paved with salt, with a hardness comparable to asphalt roads. When the road surface is damaged, pouring some brine can automatically repair it. Standing on the bridge, there is an endless salt lake on both sides, and on a sunny day, the sky is reflected in it, which is breathtakingly beautiful. ◦ Salt Flower Spectacle: Salt crystals formed by the evaporation of lake water, with strange and varied shapes, some like coral, some like pavilions and towers, and some like birds and beasts. The best viewing spot is near the Salt Lake Museum, which also houses precious "Salt Lake Oddity" crystal specimens. ◦ Lakeside Swing: White swings are set up by the lush green lake, swaying gently in the wind, creating a perfect photo atmosphere! It is recommended to wear brightly colored dresses, but remember to bring a jacket, as the wind is strong and the temperature is low by the lake. ◦ Reef Cluster: Salt reef clusters of various shapes, as if in a fantasy landscape of an alien planet, with excellent aerial photography effects, capable of capturing a spectacular scene like "Thousand Island Lake". ◦ Salt Lake Museum: Free to enter, here you can learn about the history of the salt lake's formation and the mining process. The salt flower crystals displayed in the museum are beautiful, and the "Salt Lake Oddity" at the entrance is a popular photo spot. 3. Tour Route: Take the scenic shuttle bus for 30 minutes to enter the scenic area (sit on the right side when entering). After getting off, you can choose to walk or take the sightseeing vehicle to tour the salt lake, the round trip is 4 kilometers. The sightseeing vehicle is 15 yuan/person for a single trip. It is recommended to take the vehicle there and walk back, as the scenery is better later on, and there are fewer people, making it better for photos. IV. Accommodation Guide There are almost no accommodation facilities around Qarhan Salt Lake. Most tourists choose to stay in Golmud city, where there are many cost-effective accommodation options: 1. Chain hotels like Hanting/Home Inn: Clean and hygienic, affordable prices, generally 200 - 300 yuan per night. 2. Local B&Bs: You can experience more authentic Qinghai life, and the prices are also relatively affordable, you can find decent conditions for around 200 yuan. Remember to book in advance, especially during the peak tourist season from July to September. Choose hotels close to Kunlun Square for convenient access to the early commuter bus.

Lake Tekapo is really well-deserved. When I saw it on a sunny day, I couldn't believe my eyes. It was so blue that I doubted my life! 💙 Many people think the lake is not blue just because the weather is not right! A sunny day will definitely shock you! No need to edit! Here are a few places I recommend, you can follow my route, I strongly recommend you to go, you can take 800 photos!!! 1️⃣ Go to "Astro Cafe" in the morning. This coffee is amazing! I would call it "the most beautiful cafe on earth" ☕ The most worthwhile place in Tekapo! No objection! The cafe is located at the "University of Canterbury Observatory", you must go here first, because it is only open until 2 pm, and vehicles entering the observatory need to queue, but we only waited for 20 mins, not too long... You can order some food and drinks to take pictures on the table, just learn from me how to take pictures hahaha 📸 (It is said to be open only on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so we went on Friday to be safe) 2️⃣ There is a ⛰ big rock a few steps down from the cafe!!! You must go! A great place to take photos! I am tired of saying it, you will regret it if you don't go... 3️⃣ Then go to "Lake McGregor Campervan Site", a treasure place discovered by our group. The trees 🌲 by the lake are very beautiful. Sisters with good balance can sit on the trees to take pictures, like the movie poster of "Flipped"! 4️⃣ After going down the mountain, go to "Church of the Good Shepherd ⛪️", which is also a must-see church in Tekapo! You can walk to the lake from the church, and there are many lupines 🌸 this season, which are super beautiful~ 5️⃣ If you want to have fine dining for dinner, you can go to "Dark Sky Diner" 🍽 with a good view. If you don't care about the environment, you can go to "Ramen Tekapo" 🍜. Asian food is not bad, which comforted my Chinese stomach!

After spending a day here, I really didn't want to go back to Chengdu! I dragged my partner to the mountains for the weekend, and after just one night, neither of us wanted to leave. We didn't want to go back to the city and be workhorses again.🐮 The moment I stepped into Suxian Valley, it was like stepping into a wonderland forgotten by time. Surrounded by green mountains, the rolling hills resemble a meticulously painted ink wash landscape. Mountain mist, like a light veil, drifts among the peaks, creating a dreamlike atmosphere. The rooms are simple yet cozy! The wooden furniture exudes a faint woody fragrance, blending with the scent of nature for a truly pleasant experience. Soaking in the in-room hot spring bath and gazing out the window at the lush greenery, with the sound of birdsong filling the air, is incredibly relaxing.😌 When city life gets a little too hectic, escape to Suxian Valley for the weekend for a rendezvous with nature and rediscover your inner peace.

Listen up! When visiting Hangzhou during May Day holiday, avoid the crowded Broken Bridge and Lingyin Temple. Even the most beautiful places lose their charm when overcrowded. Hangzhou actually has many hidden gems to explore. Today I'm sharing a secret route just for you ✔️ Forest greenery ✔️ Academic atmosphere ✔️ Flowing streams This route reveals another side of Hangzhou Perfect for leisurely strolls during this spring-to-summer transition . 🚶City walk route: Orioles Singing in the Willows➡Wansong Academy➡White Snake Flying Bridge➡Changqiao Park➡Changqiao Stream Ecological Park➡Silk Museum . 1️⃣ Orioles Singing in the Willows 🎫Free One of the Ten Scenes of West Lake, this spring-famous attraction sees fewer tourists due to its slightly remote location. When spring arrives, thousands of weeping willows sway in the breeze while orioles sing, making you feel like you've stepped into a classical painting of Jiangnan. 📸For Instagram-worthy photos, navigate to "New Henghe Bridge." Best lighting and fewer people before 9 AM 2️⃣ Wansong Academy 🎫10 yuan One of Hangzhou's oldest academies and the legendary place where Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai "studied together for three years." This quiet, secluded spot features only ancient pines and cypress trees complementing the traditional architecture. The Yuxiu Pavilion and Mingdao Hall preserve Ming and Qing dynasty styles. A small hiking trail behind the academy offers panoramic views of West Lake. 3️⃣ White Snake Flying Bridge 🎫Free Just a 5-minute walk left from Wansong Academy, you'll find this little-known bridge where legend says Lady White Snake once "flew across" to find Xu Xian. The bridge has a beautiful "S" shape and is hidden among trees. The surroundings are peaceful with only occasional locals taking walks, making it perfect for traditional-style photography. 4️⃣ Changqiao Park and Changqiao Stream Ecological Park 🎫Free Changqiao Park is named after the "Eighteen Farewells" legend of Liang and Zhu, but the real surprise is the adjacent "Changqiao Stream Ecological Park." Almost tourist-free, it features winding wooden boardwalks, swaying irises, and crystal-clear streams—a perfect place to while away the time. 5️⃣ China National Silk Museum 🎫Free (Closed on Mondays) This understated museum by West Lake is actually the world's largest silk museum. It showcases China's 5,000-year history of silk culture. With few visitors and free admission, the museum's spiral staircase and fashion gallery are very photogenic. The back garden features a mulberry grove that's peaceful and elegant. Allow 1-2 hours for your visit. . 📝Travel tips: 1. Transportation recommendation: walking🚶+ bus🚌+ cycling🚴 to save energy 2. Mosquitoes are starting to appear, so bring insect repellent 3. Few dining options near attractions, best to bring water and snacks

I happened to be back in Melbourne during Yayoi Kusama's polka dot exhibition, and I definitely couldn't miss it. Many exhibits are being shown in Australia for the first time, and the popularity is evident in the fact that tickets need to be purchased several days in advance. 🎫 How to book: This exhibition is extremely popular, so be sure to purchase tickets in advance on the NGV's official website to avoid sell-outs. If you prefer a less crowded viewing experience, it's recommended to book the earliest time slot, around 9:00 am, when there are the fewest people. 💰 AUD 38 ❤️ Must-see photo spots: Most of the amazing photo opportunities are in Part 2. 1️⃣ World premiere! The stunning new work - the kaleidoscopic Infinity Mirrored Room. It's like stepping into a parallel universe! 2️⃣ Australian premiere! The 5-meter-tall sculpture "Dancing Pumpkin" is super cute and incredibly photogenic. 3️⃣ Classic polka dot paintings + immersive mirror rooms + psychedelic sculptures - every room is a great photo op. 4️⃣ Pumpkin Mirror Room: There's a queue, and each person only has about 20 seconds to look around. You won't have time to use a camera here, so it's recommended to use your phone to take pictures through the small opening. 📌 Exhibition tips: 1️⃣ Attire: It's recommended to wear form-fitting clothing in solid colors (black, white, beige, or other low-saturation colors). The exhibition is full of highly saturated colors and patterns, which might be overwhelming for those with trypophobia. 2️⃣ Viewing order: You can scan your ticket and enter up to half an hour before your entry time. You must visit Part 1 before Part 2. If you see Part 2 first, you won't be able to go back to Part 1, as tickets are scanned separately for each part. 3️⃣ Bring a friend who's good at taking photos, and be patient. The popular spots require quick shots and waiting. 4️⃣ There are also many photo opportunities in the public areas on the first floor. You can take photos for free with a pumpkin sculpture, a field of silver balls, and the polka dot balloons hanging from the ceiling in the rest area. 5️⃣ The exhibition merchandise is also great. I ended up buying a polka dot backpack and a makeup bag. 📍 National Gallery of Victoria ⏰ Dates: December 15, 2024–April 21, 2025, 9:00 am–5:00 pm

Hey guys! You absolutely must visit Anji! Missing out on Yunshang Grassland would be heartbreaking 😭! Just a 50-minute drive from Hangzhou, you’ll reach this hidden gem in northern Zhejiang at an altitude of 1,186 meters. At the mountain peaks lies a stunning grassland bordering a thousand-foot-deep canyon—standing there feels like you can almost touch the clouds. I was super lucky on my visit: within a single day, the weather cycled through sunshine, clouds, rain, and mist, each scene looking like it had special effects, making every penny worth it! ✨ Travel is an art of timing. As a "veteran" who’s visited Anji ten times, here’s your ultimate guide—save it now! 📅 Best Times to Visit ☁️ Sea of Clouds: Sunny spring and summer days, especially right after rain, when the air is clear and humid, offer the highest chance of witnessing a breathtaking sea of clouds—perfect for dreamy photos! 🌡️ Comfortable Temperatures: At over 1,000 meters above sea level, it’s about 6°C cooler than ground level. When it’s 30°C below, it’s just 24°C up here—cool and refreshing, so you can play freely without sweating! 🌇 Golden Hour: After 4 PM on sunny days, the grassland glows with soft, radiant light, instantly evoking the vast vibes of the Northwest—absolutely perfect for photos! 🎢 Two Core Areas & Itineraries 🍃 Highland Grassland: Rainbow Slide → Immortal Town → Hobbit Town → Childlike Valley 🏔️ Cliffside Adventure Park: Cloud Swing → Sky Walk/Aerial Bike → Crystal Skywalk → Bird’s Nest → Stone Candle → Glass Walkway → Via Ferrata → Sky Ladder/Swing → Heart-Pounding Steps → Cloud Trail → Sea of Clouds Promenade → Sea of Clouds Bridge 🌟 Must-Try Activities 1.

For the last few days of this trip, I decided to spend them leisurely at the second Aman resort on the southern coast of Sri Lanka. The space and natural scenery are beautiful, but the service is indeed below Aman standards. - In terms of design, Amanwella is the work of in-house designer Kerry Hill, and the design techniques show a great degree of respect for Geoffrey Bawa. From the hotel gate, Bawa's favorite lines are used without concealment. Whether in the public areas or guest rooms, the designer clearly blurs the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces through sliding doors, revolving doors, and a large number of hollow partitions, allowing the interior space to be more integrated into the natural environment. The red roof of the hotel may be a tribute to the iconic traditional Sri Lankan clay tile "Kandyan roof". Integrating traditional culture with modernism is also a major architectural concept of Bawa's works. The space element I like most in the entire hotel is the cloister at the entrance. In addition to its highly symmetrical aesthetics, the large areas of blank walls seem to give nature full play. In the afternoon, the sunlight casts the shadows of the vegetation onto the walls, poetically enriching the space with life. - In terms of service, it is quite disappointing. First of all, the ghostly room service that Aman should have does not exist at Amanwella. I encountered housekeeping several times. One day, after having breakfast and spending two or three hours at the pool, I returned to the room and found that it had not been cleaned. Even after staying for four days, many of the staff did not know our room number. Also an Aman in Sri Lanka, the service at Amangalla can be described as attentive. After checking in, I was never asked for my room number, and the butler would ask me every day if my cold was getting better. The cave tour in the reserved package was also forgotten when it came to arranging a time for us. Although we didn't plan to go anyway, they should have at least discussed our itinerary. In terms of hardware, the guest rooms are very noisy due to the sound of the waves, so I suggest that light sleepers remember to bring earplugs. The mosquito and insect prevention in the rooms is not very good, and ants crawl on the bed every day. It can be said that the service at Amanwella is rather lazy and does not meet Aman standards. - The experiences and activities here are still relatively rich. There are three national parks where you can go on safari, and there are many choices for marine activities, as well as local cultural experiences. On the second day of our stay, we went on a safari in Yala National Park. We had to leave very early, and the hotel prepared a breakfast box. On the way to the national park, we saw a beautiful sunrise. It is a pity that we did not see a Ceylon leopard. We originally planned to do some light surfing, but the waves were quite big these few days, so we gave up the marine activities. Amanwella Hotel

I recently discovered a super treasure travel destination - JianShui, Yunnan! There are no crowds of people at popular attractions. Only a slow pace of life and a strong sense of everyday life. It's simply a breath of fresh air in the tourism industry! - 🚗 Transportation: You can first go to Kunming, then take a bullet train to JianShui, or you can drive yourself. 📝 Travel Guide: 🏯 JianShui Ancient City As soon as you step into JianShui Ancient City, it's like traveling back to ancient times in an instant. The ancient city hides the most authentic atmosphere of JianShui, with bluestone roads connecting the streets and alleys. 🚂 JianShui Train You must take the JianShui Train! This is one of the few meter-gauge trains in the country, slowly traveling through picturesque scenery, as if time has slowed down. Lin'an Station 🚂: The train starts here. The station is a retro Republic of China-style building. The wooden structure is matched with old photos, full of ritual, and the photos are super beautiful. Remember to take more photos 📸 🌉 Shuanglong Bridge Also known as the Seventeen-Arch Bridge, this is a landmark landscape of JianShui. Spanning the intersection of the Lujiang River and the Tachong River, it looks magnificent from a distance. There are three bridge corridors on the bridge, the middle one is large and the two sides are small, with a unique design. At dusk, the setting sun shines on the bridge, and the water is sparkling, so beautiful that you can't speak, and the photos are super beautiful! 🚉 Xianghuiqiao Station Xianghuiqiao Station is full of French style. French architecture and Chinese retro style are perfectly integrated, which is very photogenic! The roof of the station is a Chinese-style roof ridge with black tiles, but the exterior wall is a French-style stone castle. Although it is a bit old, it has a more historical flavor. 🚉 Tuanshan Station Tuanshan Station is the last stop of the train. The station building combines Chinese and Western styles and is very distinctive. From here, you can visit Tuanshan residential buildings. Most of the Tuanshan residential buildings were built in the late Qing Dynasty, with typical "three courtyards and one screen wall" and "four courtyards and five patios" forms, with white walls and black tiles, exquisite and beautiful.

🚗Day 1: West Lake Classic Loop + Night Tour of Hefang Street 🌅Morning: West Lake Highlights ① Broken Bridge: Arrive before 7 AM to avoid crowds and experience the romantic setting of "Legend of the White Snake."

Visit Xiling Seal Society (perfect photo spot with red walls and dark tiles). ③ Hand-rowed Boat Tour: Choose the "Guozhuang to Maojiabu" route (about 180 yuan/hour), glide through reed marshes, encounter ducks and water lilies, while boatmen share vivid West Lake legends. 🍜Lunch Recommendations: Lou Wai Lou (must-try West Lake Vinegar Fish and Dongpo Pork), or try Dragon Well Shrimp at "Tea Village" on Beishan Street. 🌇Afternoon: Leifeng Pagoda + Su Causeway ① Leifeng Pagoda: Climb for panoramic views of West Lake, best at sunset for amazing light and shadows.

Transportation: West Lake scenic area has weekend traffic restrictions! Subway + shared bikes are most convenient; taking a taxi to Lingyin Temple is recommended (about 30 yuan). 2. Avoiding Tourist Traps: Choose "hand-rowed boats" or "oar boats" on West Lake, avoid motorboats (poor experience); Silk shops on Hefang Street are mostly for tourists - buy authentic silk at "Wensli" flagship stores. 3.

Super comprehensive travel guide for Qarhan Salt Lake, hit the road after reading! Qarhan Salt Lake, China's largest salt lake, covers a vast area of 5800 square kilometers, 56 times the size of Chaka Salt Lake. It's beautiful with few people, as stunning as a dreamlike fairyland! Here, you can see unique landscapes like salt flowers, salt bridges, and salt sculptures. The lake water is an emerald green like apple soda, and any casual shot turns into a masterpiece. I. Transportation Guide 1. Self-driving: Starting from Golmud, take the G3011 Liuge Expressway, and you can arrive in about 1.5 hours. The road condition is good, and you can also enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Gobi highway along the way, with any casual shot becoming a highway masterpiece. Self-driving cars can only be parked outside the scenic area, and you need to transfer to the scenic area bus to enter. The seats on the right side inside the bus offer better views. 2. Public Transportation: ◦ At Zhufeng Building on the east side of Kunlun Square in Golmud city, there are factory commuter buses going there, about one every hour, with a fare of 15 - 20 yuan. ◦ Taking a taxi round trip from Golmud city costs about 150 yuan and can take you directly to the Salt Lake Museum. ◦ There is a train from Golmud to Qarhan at 9:00 every day, with a ticket price of 8.5 yuan, but it is still some distance from the scenic area after getting off the train. II. Consumption Guide 1. Ticket Price: Peak season (May - October) 100 yuan/person, off-season (November - April) prices are slightly lower. The ticket includes the scenic area bus fee. 2. Discount Policy: Children under 1.2 meters, seniors over 70 years old, soldiers, people with disabilities, etc., are exempt from tickets; students and minors aged 6 - 18 enjoy half-price tickets; tourists from Zhejiang province are exempt from tickets with their ID card, only needing to purchase the bus/sightseeing vehicle ticket. 3. Other Costs: Round trip sightseeing vehicle 30 yuan; glass boat photo 30 yuan/person; drone rental price depends on the model; there are also some local snacks and souvenirs sold in the scenic area, the prices are reasonable and not too outrageous. III. Play Guide 1. Best Time to Visit: June - October is the golden season, July - September the climate is pleasant and the lake water color is most vibrant. It is recommended to visit after 3 PM daily, when the light is soft and you can capture the most beautiful reflection effects; there are fewer people in the morning and it is quieter, but the temperature is lower. Note that when the sun is directly overhead at noon, the lake surface reflects strongly, making it easy to overexpose portraits, so remember to bring sunglasses. 2. Must-visit Attractions: ◦ Ten Thousand Zhang Salt Bridge: A road 32 kilometers long, completely paved with salt, with a hardness comparable to asphalt roads. When the road surface is damaged, pouring some brine can automatically repair it. Standing on the bridge, there is an endless salt lake on both sides, and on a sunny day, the sky is reflected in it, which is breathtakingly beautiful. ◦ Salt Flower Spectacle: Salt crystals formed by the evaporation of lake water, with strange and varied shapes, some like coral, some like pavilions and towers, and some like birds and beasts. The best viewing spot is near the Salt Lake Museum, which also houses precious "Salt Lake Oddity" crystal specimens. ◦ Lakeside Swing: White swings are set up by the lush green lake, swaying gently in the wind, creating a perfect photo atmosphere! It is recommended to wear brightly colored dresses, but remember to bring a jacket, as the wind is strong and the temperature is low by the lake. ◦ Reef Cluster: Salt reef clusters of various shapes, as if in a fantasy landscape of an alien planet, with excellent aerial photography effects, capable of capturing a spectacular scene like "Thousand Island Lake". ◦ Salt Lake Museum: Free to enter, here you can learn about the history of the salt lake's formation and the mining process. The salt flower crystals displayed in the museum are beautiful, and the "Salt Lake Oddity" at the entrance is a popular photo spot. 3. Tour Route: Take the scenic shuttle bus for 30 minutes to enter the scenic area (sit on the right side when entering). After getting off, you can choose to walk or take the sightseeing vehicle to tour the salt lake, the round trip is 4 kilometers. The sightseeing vehicle is 15 yuan/person for a single trip. It is recommended to take the vehicle there and walk back, as the scenery is better later on, and there are fewer people, making it better for photos. IV. Accommodation Guide There are almost no accommodation facilities around Qarhan Salt Lake. Most tourists choose to stay in Golmud city, where there are many cost-effective accommodation options: 1. Chain hotels like Hanting/Home Inn: Clean and hygienic, affordable prices, generally 200 - 300 yuan per night. 2. Local B&Bs: You can experience more authentic Qinghai life, and the prices are also relatively affordable, you can find decent conditions for around 200 yuan. Remember to book in advance, especially during the peak tourist season from July to September. Choose hotels close to Kunlun Square for convenient access to the early commuter bus.

Lake Tekapo is really well-deserved. When I saw it on a sunny day, I couldn't believe my eyes. It was so blue that I doubted my life! 💙 Many people think the lake is not blue just because the weather is not right! A sunny day will definitely shock you! No need to edit! Here are a few places I recommend, you can follow my route, I strongly recommend you to go, you can take 800 photos!!! 1️⃣ Go to "Astro Cafe" in the morning. This coffee is amazing! I would call it "the most beautiful cafe on earth" ☕ The most worthwhile place in Tekapo! No objection! The cafe is located at the "University of Canterbury Observatory", you must go here first, because it is only open until 2 pm, and vehicles entering the observatory need to queue, but we only waited for 20 mins, not too long... You can order some food and drinks to take pictures on the table, just learn from me how to take pictures hahaha 📸 (It is said to be open only on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so we went on Friday to be safe) 2️⃣ There is a ⛰ big rock a few steps down from the cafe!!! You must go! A great place to take photos! I am tired of saying it, you will regret it if you don't go... 3️⃣ Then go to "Lake McGregor Campervan Site", a treasure place discovered by our group. The trees 🌲 by the lake are very beautiful. Sisters with good balance can sit on the trees to take pictures, like the movie poster of "Flipped"! 4️⃣ After going down the mountain, go to "Church of the Good Shepherd ⛪️", which is also a must-see church in Tekapo! You can walk to the lake from the church, and there are many lupines 🌸 this season, which are super beautiful~ 5️⃣ If you want to have fine dining for dinner, you can go to "Dark Sky Diner" 🍽 with a good view. If you don't care about the environment, you can go to "Ramen Tekapo" 🍜. Asian food is not bad, which comforted my Chinese stomach!

After spending a day here, I really didn't want to go back to Chengdu! I dragged my partner to the mountains for the weekend, and after just one night, neither of us wanted to leave. We didn't want to go back to the city and be workhorses again.🐮 The moment I stepped into Suxian Valley, it was like stepping into a wonderland forgotten by time. Surrounded by green mountains, the rolling hills resemble a meticulously painted ink wash landscape. Mountain mist, like a light veil, drifts among the peaks, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.

Listen up! When visiting Hangzhou during May Day holiday, avoid the crowded Broken Bridge and Lingyin Temple. Even the most beautiful places lose their charm when overcrowded. Hangzhou actually has many hidden gems to explore. Today I'm sharing a secret route just for you ✔️ Forest greenery ✔️ Academic atmosphere ✔️ Flowing streams This route reveals another side of Hangzhou Perfect for leisurely strolls during this spring-to-summer transition . 🚶City walk route: Orioles Singing in the Willows➡Wansong Academy➡White Snake Flying Bridge➡Changqiao Park➡Changqiao Stream Ecological Park➡Silk Museum . 1️⃣ Orioles Singing in the Willows 🎫Free One of the Ten Scenes of West Lake, this spring-famous attraction sees fewer tourists due to its slightly remote location. When spring arrives, thousands of weeping willows sway in the breeze while orioles sing, making you feel like you've stepped into a classical painting of Jiangnan. 📸For Instagram-worthy photos, navigate to "New Henghe Bridge." Best lighting and fewer people before 9 AM 2️⃣ Wansong Academy 🎫10 yuan One of Hangzhou's oldest academies and the legendary place where Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai "studied together for three years." This quiet, secluded spot features only ancient pines and cypress trees complementing the traditional architecture. The Yuxiu Pavilion and Mingdao Hall preserve Ming and Qing dynasty styles. A small hiking trail behind the academy offers panoramic views of West Lake. 3️⃣ White Snake Flying Bridge 🎫Free Just a 5-minute walk left from Wansong Academy, you'll find this little-known bridge where legend says Lady White Snake once "flew across" to find Xu Xian. The bridge has a beautiful "S" shape and is hidden among trees. The surroundings are peaceful with only occasional locals taking walks, making it perfect for traditional-style photography. 4️⃣ Changqiao Park and Changqiao Stream Ecological Park 🎫Free Changqiao Park is named after the "Eighteen Farewells" legend of Liang and Zhu, but the real surprise is the adjacent "Changqiao Stream Ecological Park." Almost tourist-free, it features winding wooden boardwalks, swaying irises, and crystal-clear streams—a perfect place to while away the time. 5️⃣ China National Silk Museum 🎫Free (Closed on Mondays) This understated museum by West Lake is actually the world's largest silk museum. It showcases China's 5,000-year history of silk culture. With few visitors and free admission, the museum's spiral staircase and fashion gallery are very photogenic. The back garden features a mulberry grove that's peaceful and elegant. Allow 1-2 hours for your visit. . 📝Travel tips: 1. Transportation recommendation: walking🚶+ bus🚌+ cycling🚴 to save energy 2. Mosquitoes are starting to appear, so bring insect repellent 3. Few dining options near attractions, best to bring water and snacks

I happened to be back in Melbourne during Yayoi Kusama's polka dot exhibition, and I definitely couldn't miss it. Many exhibits are being shown in Australia for the first time, and the popularity is evident in the fact that tickets need to be purchased several days in advance. 🎫 How to book: This exhibition is extremely popular, so be sure to purchase tickets in advance on the NGV's official website to avoid sell-outs. If you prefer a less crowded viewing experience, it's recommended to book the earliest time slot, around 9:00 am, when there are the fewest people. 💰 AUD 38 ❤️ Must-see photo spots: Most of the amazing photo opportunities are in Part 2. 1️⃣ World premiere! The stunning new work - the kaleidoscopic Infinity Mirrored Room. It's like stepping into a parallel universe! 2️⃣ Australian premiere! The 5-meter-tall sculpture "Dancing Pumpkin" is super cute and incredibly photogenic. 3️⃣ Classic polka dot paintings + immersive mirror rooms + psychedelic sculptures - every room is a great photo op. 4️⃣ Pumpkin Mirror Room: There's a queue, and each person only has about 20 seconds to look around. You won't have time to use a camera here, so it's recommended to use your phone to take pictures through the small opening. 📌 Exhibition tips: 1️⃣ Attire: It's recommended to wear form-fitting clothing in solid colors (black, white, beige, or other low-saturation colors). The exhibition is full of highly saturated colors and patterns, which might be overwhelming for those with trypophobia. 2️⃣ Viewing order: You can scan your ticket and enter up to half an hour before your entry time. You must visit Part 1 before Part 2. If you see Part 2 first, you won't be able to go back to Part 1, as tickets are scanned separately for each part. 3️⃣ Bring a friend who's good at taking photos, and be patient. The popular spots require quick shots and waiting. 4️⃣ There are also many photo opportunities in the public areas on the first floor. You can take photos for free with a pumpkin sculpture, a field of silver balls, and the polka dot balloons hanging from the ceiling in the rest area. 5️⃣ The exhibition merchandise is also great. I ended up buying a polka dot backpack and a makeup bag. 📍 National Gallery of Victoria ⏰ Dates: December 15, 2024–April 21, 2025, 9:00 am–5:00 pm

Hey guys! You absolutely must visit Anji! Missing out on Yunshang Grassland would be heartbreaking 😭! Just a 50-minute drive from Hangzhou, you’ll reach this hidden gem in northern Zhejiang at an altitude of 1,186 meters. At the mountain peaks lies a stunning grassland bordering a thousand-foot-deep canyon—standing there feels like you can almost touch the clouds. I was super lucky on my visit: within a single day, the weather cycled through sunshine, clouds, rain, and mist, each scene looking like it had special effects, making every penny worth it! ✨ Travel is an art of timing.

For the last few days of this trip, I decided to spend them leisurely at the second Aman resort on the southern coast of Sri Lanka. The space and natural scenery are beautiful, but the service is indeed below Aman standards. - In terms of design, Amanwella is the work of in-house designer Kerry Hill, and the design techniques show a great degree of respect for Geoffrey Bawa. From the hotel gate, Bawa's favorite lines are used without concealment. Whether in the public areas or guest rooms, the designer clearly blurs the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces through sliding doors, revolving doors, and a large number of hollow partitions, allowing the interior space to be more integrated into the natural environment. The red roof of the hotel may be a tribute to the iconic traditional Sri Lankan clay tile "Kandyan roof". Integrating traditional culture with modernism is also a major architectural concept of Bawa's works. The space element I like most in the entire hotel is the cloister at the entrance. In addition to its highly symmetrical aesthetics, the large areas of blank walls seem to give nature full play. In the afternoon, the sunlight casts the shadows of the vegetation onto the walls, poetically enriching the space with life. - In terms of service, it is quite disappointing. First of all, the ghostly room service that Aman should have does not exist at Amanwella. I encountered housekeeping several times. One day, after having breakfast and spending two or three hours at the pool, I returned to the room and found that it had not been cleaned. Even after staying for four days, many of the staff did not know our room number. Also an Aman in Sri Lanka, the service at Amangalla can be described as attentive. After checking in, I was never asked for my room number, and the butler would ask me every day if my cold was getting better. The cave tour in the reserved package was also forgotten when it came to arranging a time for us. Although we didn't plan to go anyway, they should have at least discussed our itinerary. In terms of hardware, the guest rooms are very noisy due to the sound of the waves, so I suggest that light sleepers remember to bring earplugs. The mosquito and insect prevention in the rooms is not very good, and ants crawl on the bed every day. It can be said that the service at Amanwella is rather lazy and does not meet Aman standards. - The experiences and activities here are still relatively rich. There are three national parks where you can go on safari, and there are many choices for marine activities, as well as local cultural experiences. On the second day of our stay, we went on a safari in Yala National Park. We had to leave very early, and the hotel prepared a breakfast box. On the way to the national park, we saw a beautiful sunrise. It is a pity that we did not see a Ceylon leopard. We originally planned to do some light surfing, but the waves were quite big these few days, so we gave up the marine activities. Amanwella Hotel

I recently discovered a super treasure travel destination - JianShui, Yunnan! There are no crowds of people at popular attractions. Only a slow pace of life and a strong sense of everyday life. It's simply a breath of fresh air in the tourism industry! - 🚗 Transportation: You can first go to Kunming, then take a bullet train to JianShui, or you can drive yourself. 📝 Travel Guide: 🏯 JianShui Ancient City As soon as you step into JianShui Ancient City, it's like traveling back to ancient times in an instant. The ancient city hides the most authentic atmosphere of JianShui, with bluestone roads connecting the streets and alleys. 🚂 JianShui Train You must take the JianShui Train! This is one of the few meter-gauge trains in the country, slowly traveling through picturesque scenery, as if time has slowed down. Lin'an Station 🚂: The train starts here. The station is a retro Republic of China-style building. The wooden structure is matched with old photos, full of ritual, and the photos are super beautiful. Remember to take more photos 📸 🌉 Shuanglong Bridge Also known as the Seventeen-Arch Bridge, this is a landmark landscape of JianShui. Spanning the intersection of the Lujiang River and the Tachong River, it looks magnificent from a distance. There are three bridge corridors on the bridge, the middle one is large and the two sides are small, with a unique design. At dusk, the setting sun shines on the bridge, and the water is sparkling, so beautiful that you can't speak, and the photos are super beautiful! 🚉 Xianghuiqiao Station Xianghuiqiao Station is full of French style. French architecture and Chinese retro style are perfectly integrated, which is very photogenic! The roof of the station is a Chinese-style roof ridge with black tiles, but the exterior wall is a French-style stone castle. Although it is a bit old, it has a more historical flavor. 🚉 Tuanshan Station Tuanshan Station is the last stop of the train. The station building combines Chinese and Western styles and is very distinctive. From here, you can visit Tuanshan residential buildings. Most of the Tuanshan residential buildings were built in the late Qing Dynasty, with typical "three courtyards and one screen wall" and "four courtyards and five patios" forms, with white walls and black tiles, exquisite and beautiful.

Super comprehensive travel guide for Qarhan Salt Lake, hit the road after reading! Qarhan Salt Lake, China's largest salt lake, covers a vast area of 5800 square kilometers, 56 times the size of Chaka Salt Lake. It's beautiful with few people, as stunning as a dreamlike fairyland! Here, you can see unique landscapes like salt flowers, salt bridges, and salt sculptures. The lake water is an emerald green like apple soda, and any casual shot turns into a masterpiece. I. Transportation Guide 1. Self-driving: Starting from Golmud, take the G3011 Liuge Expressway, and you can arrive in about 1.5 hours. The road condition is good, and you can also enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Gobi highway along the way, with any casual shot becoming a highway masterpiece. Self-driving cars can only be parked outside the scenic area, and you need to transfer to the scenic area bus to enter. The seats on the right side inside the bus offer better views. 2. Public Transportation: ◦ At Zhufeng Building on the east side of Kunlun Square in Golmud city, there are factory commuter buses going there, about one every hour, with a fare of 15 - 20 yuan. ◦ Taking a taxi round trip from Golmud city costs about 150 yuan and can take you directly to the Salt Lake Museum. ◦ There is a train from Golmud to Qarhan at 9:00 every day, with a ticket price of 8.5 yuan, but it is still some distance from the scenic area after getting off the train. II. Consumption Guide 1. Ticket Price: Peak season (May - October) 100 yuan/person, off-season (November - April) prices are slightly lower. The ticket includes the scenic area bus fee. 2. Discount Policy: Children under 1.2 meters, seniors over 70 years old, soldiers, people with disabilities, etc., are exempt from tickets; students and minors aged 6 - 18 enjoy half-price tickets; tourists from Zhejiang province are exempt from tickets with their ID card, only needing to purchase the bus/sightseeing vehicle ticket. 3. Other Costs: Round trip sightseeing vehicle 30 yuan; glass boat photo 30 yuan/person; drone rental price depends on the model; there are also some local snacks and souvenirs sold in the scenic area, the prices are reasonable and not too outrageous. III. Play Guide 1. Best Time to Visit: June - October is the golden season, July - September the climate is pleasant and the lake water color is most vibrant. It is recommended to visit after 3 PM daily, when the light is soft and you can capture the most beautiful reflection effects; there are fewer people in the morning and it is quieter, but the temperature is lower. Note that when the sun is directly overhead at noon, the lake surface reflects strongly, making it easy to overexpose portraits, so remember to bring sunglasses. 2. Must-visit Attractions: ◦ Ten Thousand Zhang Salt Bridge: A road 32 kilometers long, completely paved with salt, with a hardness comparable to asphalt roads. When the road surface is damaged, pouring some brine can automatically repair it. Standing on the bridge, there is an endless salt lake on both sides, and on a sunny day, the sky is reflected in it, which is breathtakingly beautiful. ◦ Salt Flower Spectacle: Salt crystals formed by the evaporation of lake water, with strange and varied shapes, some like coral, some like pavilions and towers, and some like birds and beasts. The best viewing spot is near the Salt Lake Museum, which also houses precious "Salt Lake Oddity" crystal specimens. ◦ Lakeside Swing: White swings are set up by the lush green lake, swaying gently in the wind, creating a perfect photo atmosphere! It is recommended to wear brightly colored dresses, but remember to bring a jacket, as the wind is strong and the temperature is low by the lake. ◦ Reef Cluster: Salt reef clusters of various shapes, as if in a fantasy landscape of an alien planet, with excellent aerial photography effects, capable of capturing a spectacular scene like "Thousand Island Lake". ◦ Salt Lake Museum: Free to enter, here you can learn about the history of the salt lake's formation and the mining process. The salt flower crystals displayed in the museum are beautiful, and the "Salt Lake Oddity" at the entrance is a popular photo spot. 3. Tour Route: Take the scenic shuttle bus for 30 minutes to enter the scenic area (sit on the right side when entering). After getting off, you can choose to walk or take the sightseeing vehicle to tour the salt lake, the round trip is 4 kilometers. The sightseeing vehicle is 15 yuan/person for a single trip. It is recommended to take the vehicle there and walk back, as the scenery is better later on, and there are fewer people, making it better for photos. IV. Accommodation Guide There are almost no accommodation facilities around Qarhan Salt Lake. Most tourists choose to stay in Golmud city, where there are many cost-effective accommodation options: 1. Chain hotels like Hanting/Home Inn: Clean and hygienic, affordable prices, generally 200 - 300 yuan per night. 2. Local B&Bs: You can experience more authentic Qinghai life, and the prices are also relatively affordable, you can find decent conditions for around 200 yuan. Remember to book in advance, especially during the peak tourist season from July to September. Choose hotels close to Kunlun Square for convenient access to the early commuter bus.

Lake Tekapo is really well-deserved. When I saw it on a sunny day, I couldn't believe my eyes. It was so blue that I doubted my life! 💙 Many people think the lake is not blue just because the weather is not right! A sunny day will definitely shock you! No need to edit! Here are a few places I recommend, you can follow my route, I strongly recommend you to go, you can take 800 photos!!! 1️⃣ Go to "Astro Cafe" in the morning. This coffee is amazing! I would call it "the most beautiful cafe on earth" ☕ The most worthwhile place in Tekapo! No objection! The cafe is located at the "University of Canterbury Observatory", you must go here first, because it is only open until 2 pm, and vehicles entering the observatory need to queue, but we only waited for 20 mins, not too long... You can order some food and drinks to take pictures on the table, just learn from me how to take pictures hahaha 📸 (It is said to be open only on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so we went on Friday to be safe) 2️⃣ There is a ⛰ big rock a few steps down from the cafe!!! You must go! A great place to take photos! I am tired of saying it, you will regret it if you don't go... 3️⃣ Then go to "Lake McGregor Campervan Site", a treasure place discovered by our group. The trees 🌲 by the lake are very beautiful. Sisters with good balance can sit on the trees to take pictures, like the movie poster of "Flipped"! 4️⃣ After going down the mountain, go to "Church of the Good Shepherd ⛪️", which is also a must-see church in Tekapo! You can walk to the lake from the church, and there are many lupines 🌸 this season, which are super beautiful~ 5️⃣ If you want to have fine dining for dinner, you can go to "Dark Sky Diner" 🍽 with a good view. If you don't care about the environment, you can go to "Ramen Tekapo" 🍜. Asian food is not bad, which comforted my Chinese stomach!

Guests with cars can also visit the Million Sunflower Garden, a 25-minute drive, to experience the romance of a sea of flowers.

After spending a day here, I really didn't want to go back to Chengdu! I dragged my partner to the mountains for the weekend, and after just one night, neither of us wanted to leave. We didn't want to go back to the city and be workhorses again.🐮 The moment I stepped into Suxian Valley, it was like stepping into a wonderland forgotten by time.

Listen up! When visiting Hangzhou during May Day holiday, avoid the crowded Broken Bridge and Lingyin Temple. Even the most beautiful places lose their charm when overcrowded. Hangzhou actually has many hidden gems to explore. Today I'm sharing a secret route just for you ✔️ Forest greenery ✔️ Academic atmosphere ✔️ Flowing streams This route reveals another side of Hangzhou Perfect for leisurely strolls during this spring-to-summer transition . 🚶City walk route: Orioles Singing in the Willows➡Wansong Academy➡White Snake Flying Bridge➡Changqiao Park➡Changqiao Stream Ecological Park➡Silk Museum . 1️⃣ Orioles Singing in the Willows 🎫Free One of the Ten Scenes of West Lake, this spring-famous attraction sees fewer tourists due to its slightly remote location. When spring arrives, thousands of weeping willows sway in the breeze while orioles sing, making you feel like you've stepped into a classical painting of Jiangnan. 📸For Instagram-worthy photos, navigate to "New Henghe Bridge." Best lighting and fewer people before 9 AM 2️⃣ Wansong Academy 🎫10 yuan One of Hangzhou's oldest academies and the legendary place where Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai "studied together for three years." This quiet, secluded spot features only ancient pines and cypress trees complementing the traditional architecture. The Yuxiu Pavilion and Mingdao Hall preserve Ming and Qing dynasty styles. A small hiking trail behind the academy offers panoramic views of West Lake. 3️⃣ White Snake Flying Bridge 🎫Free Just a 5-minute walk left from Wansong Academy, you'll find this little-known bridge where legend says Lady White Snake once "flew across" to find Xu Xian. The bridge has a beautiful "S" shape and is hidden among trees. The surroundings are peaceful with only occasional locals taking walks, making it perfect for traditional-style photography. 4️⃣ Changqiao Park and Changqiao Stream Ecological Park 🎫Free Changqiao Park is named after the "Eighteen Farewells" legend of Liang and Zhu, but the real surprise is the adjacent "Changqiao Stream Ecological Park." Almost tourist-free, it features winding wooden boardwalks, swaying irises, and crystal-clear streams—a perfect place to while away the time. 5️⃣ China National Silk Museum 🎫Free (Closed on Mondays) This understated museum by West Lake is actually the world's largest silk museum.

The back garden features a mulberry grove that's peaceful and elegant. Allow 1-2 hours for your visit. . 📝Travel tips: 1. Transportation recommendation: walking🚶+ bus🚌+ cycling🚴 to save energy 2. Mosquitoes are starting to appear, so bring insect repellent 3. Few dining options near attractions, best to bring water and snacks

I happened to be back in Melbourne during Yayoi Kusama's polka dot exhibition, and I definitely couldn't miss it. Many exhibits are being shown in Australia for the first time, and the popularity is evident in the fact that tickets need to be purchased several days in advance. 🎫 How to book: This exhibition is extremely popular, so be sure to purchase tickets in advance on the NGV's official website to avoid sell-outs. If you prefer a less crowded viewing experience, it's recommended to book the earliest time slot, around 9:00 am, when there are the fewest people. 💰 AUD 38 ❤️ Must-see photo spots: Most of the amazing photo opportunities are in Part 2. 1️⃣ World premiere! The stunning new work - the kaleidoscopic Infinity Mirrored Room. It's like stepping into a parallel universe! 2️⃣ Australian premiere! The 5-meter-tall sculpture "Dancing Pumpkin" is super cute and incredibly photogenic. 3️⃣ Classic polka dot paintings + immersive mirror rooms + psychedelic sculptures - every room is a great photo op. 4️⃣ Pumpkin Mirror Room: There's a queue, and each person only has about 20 seconds to look around. You won't have time to use a camera here, so it's recommended to use your phone to take pictures through the small opening. 📌 Exhibition tips: 1️⃣ Attire: It's recommended to wear form-fitting clothing in solid colors (black, white, beige, or other low-saturation colors). The exhibition is full of highly saturated colors and patterns, which might be overwhelming for those with trypophobia. 2️⃣ Viewing order: You can scan your ticket and enter up to half an hour before your entry time. You must visit Part 1 before Part 2. If you see Part 2 first, you won't be able to go back to Part 1, as tickets are scanned separately for each part. 3️⃣ Bring a friend who's good at taking photos, and be patient. The popular spots require quick shots and waiting. 4️⃣ There are also many photo opportunities in the public areas on the first floor. You can take photos for free with a pumpkin sculpture, a field of silver balls, and the polka dot balloons hanging from the ceiling in the rest area. 5️⃣ The exhibition merchandise is also great. I ended up buying a polka dot backpack and a makeup bag. 📍 National Gallery of Victoria ⏰ Dates: December 15, 2024–April 21, 2025, 9:00 am–5:00 pm

For the last few days of this trip, I decided to spend them leisurely at the second Aman resort on the southern coast of Sri Lanka. The space and natural scenery are beautiful, but the service is indeed below Aman standards. - In terms of design, Amanwella is the work of in-house designer Kerry Hill, and the design techniques show a great degree of respect for Geoffrey Bawa. From the hotel gate, Bawa's favorite lines are used without concealment. Whether in the public areas or guest rooms, the designer clearly blurs the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces through sliding doors, revolving doors, and a large number of hollow partitions, allowing the interior space to be more integrated into the natural environment. The red roof of the hotel may be a tribute to the iconic traditional Sri Lankan clay tile "Kandyan roof". Integrating traditional culture with modernism is also a major architectural concept of Bawa's works. The space element I like most in the entire hotel is the cloister at the entrance. In addition to its highly symmetrical aesthetics, the large areas of blank walls seem to give nature full play. In the afternoon, the sunlight casts the shadows of the vegetation onto the walls, poetically enriching the space with life. - In terms of service, it is quite disappointing. First of all, the ghostly room service that Aman should have does not exist at Amanwella. I encountered housekeeping several times. One day, after having breakfast and spending two or three hours at the pool, I returned to the room and found that it had not been cleaned. Even after staying for four days, many of the staff did not know our room number. Also an Aman in Sri Lanka, the service at Amangalla can be described as attentive. After checking in, I was never asked for my room number, and the butler would ask me every day if my cold was getting better. The cave tour in the reserved package was also forgotten when it came to arranging a time for us. Although we didn't plan to go anyway, they should have at least discussed our itinerary. In terms of hardware, the guest rooms are very noisy due to the sound of the waves, so I suggest that light sleepers remember to bring earplugs. The mosquito and insect prevention in the rooms is not very good, and ants crawl on the bed every day. It can be said that the service at Amanwella is rather lazy and does not meet Aman standards. - The experiences and activities here are still relatively rich. There are three national parks where you can go on safari, and there are many choices for marine activities, as well as local cultural experiences. On the second day of our stay, we went on a safari in Yala National Park. We had to leave very early, and the hotel prepared a breakfast box. On the way to the national park, we saw a beautiful sunrise. It is a pity that we did not see a Ceylon leopard. We originally planned to do some light surfing, but the waves were quite big these few days, so we gave up the marine activities. Amanwella Hotel

There are three bridge corridors on the bridge, the middle one is large and the two sides are small, with a unique design. At dusk, the setting sun shines on the bridge, and the water is sparkling, so beautiful that you can't speak, and the photos are super beautiful! 🚉 Xianghuiqiao Station Xianghuiqiao Station is full of French style. French architecture and Chinese retro style are perfectly integrated, which is very photogenic! The roof of the station is a Chinese-style roof ridge with black tiles, but the exterior wall is a French-style stone castle. Although it is a bit old, it has a more historical flavor. 🚉 Tuanshan Station Tuanshan Station is the last stop of the train. The station building combines Chinese and Western styles and is very distinctive. From here, you can visit Tuanshan residential buildings. Most of the Tuanshan residential buildings were built in the late Qing Dynasty, with typical "three courtyards and one screen wall" and "four courtyards and five patios" forms, with white walls and black tiles, exquisite and beautiful.

Super comprehensive travel guide for Qarhan Salt Lake, hit the road after reading! Qarhan Salt Lake, China's largest salt lake, covers a vast area of 5800 square kilometers, 56 times the size of Chaka Salt Lake. It's beautiful with few people, as stunning as a dreamlike fairyland! Here, you can see unique landscapes like salt flowers, salt bridges, and salt sculptures. The lake water is an emerald green like apple soda, and any casual shot turns into a masterpiece. I. Transportation Guide 1. Self-driving: Starting from Golmud, take the G3011 Liuge Expressway, and you can arrive in about 1.5 hours. The road condition is good, and you can also enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Gobi highway along the way, with any casual shot becoming a highway masterpiece. Self-driving cars can only be parked outside the scenic area, and you need to transfer to the scenic area bus to enter. The seats on the right side inside the bus offer better views. 2. Public Transportation: ◦ At Zhufeng Building on the east side of Kunlun Square in Golmud city, there are factory commuter buses going there, about one every hour, with a fare of 15 - 20 yuan. ◦ Taking a taxi round trip from Golmud city costs about 150 yuan and can take you directly to the Salt Lake Museum. ◦ There is a train from Golmud to Qarhan at 9:00 every day, with a ticket price of 8.5 yuan, but it is still some distance from the scenic area after getting off the train. II. Consumption Guide 1. Ticket Price: Peak season (May - October) 100 yuan/person, off-season (November - April) prices are slightly lower. The ticket includes the scenic area bus fee. 2. Discount Policy: Children under 1.2 meters, seniors over 70 years old, soldiers, people with disabilities, etc., are exempt from tickets; students and minors aged 6 - 18 enjoy half-price tickets; tourists from Zhejiang province are exempt from tickets with their ID card, only needing to purchase the bus/sightseeing vehicle ticket. 3. Other Costs: Round trip sightseeing vehicle 30 yuan; glass boat photo 30 yuan/person; drone rental price depends on the model; there are also some local snacks and souvenirs sold in the scenic area, the prices are reasonable and not too outrageous. III. Play Guide 1. Best Time to Visit: June - October is the golden season, July - September the climate is pleasant and the lake water color is most vibrant. It is recommended to visit after 3 PM daily, when the light is soft and you can capture the most beautiful reflection effects; there are fewer people in the morning and it is quieter, but the temperature is lower. Note that when the sun is directly overhead at noon, the lake surface reflects strongly, making it easy to overexpose portraits, so remember to bring sunglasses. 2. Must-visit Attractions: ◦ Ten Thousand Zhang Salt Bridge: A road 32 kilometers long, completely paved with salt, with a hardness comparable to asphalt roads. When the road surface is damaged, pouring some brine can automatically repair it. Standing on the bridge, there is an endless salt lake on both sides, and on a sunny day, the sky is reflected in it, which is breathtakingly beautiful. ◦ Salt Flower Spectacle: Salt crystals formed by the evaporation of lake water, with strange and varied shapes, some like coral, some like pavilions and towers, and some like birds and beasts. The best viewing spot is near the Salt Lake Museum, which also houses precious "Salt Lake Oddity" crystal specimens. ◦ Lakeside Swing: White swings are set up by the lush green lake, swaying gently in the wind, creating a perfect photo atmosphere! It is recommended to wear brightly colored dresses, but remember to bring a jacket, as the wind is strong and the temperature is low by the lake. ◦ Reef Cluster: Salt reef clusters of various shapes, as if in a fantasy landscape of an alien planet, with excellent aerial photography effects, capable of capturing a spectacular scene like "Thousand Island Lake". ◦ Salt Lake Museum: Free to enter, here you can learn about the history of the salt lake's formation and the mining process. The salt flower crystals displayed in the museum are beautiful, and the "Salt Lake Oddity" at the entrance is a popular photo spot. 3. Tour Route: Take the scenic shuttle bus for 30 minutes to enter the scenic area (sit on the right side when entering). After getting off, you can choose to walk or take the sightseeing vehicle to tour the salt lake, the round trip is 4 kilometers. The sightseeing vehicle is 15 yuan/person for a single trip. It is recommended to take the vehicle there and walk back, as the scenery is better later on, and there are fewer people, making it better for photos. IV. Accommodation Guide There are almost no accommodation facilities around Qarhan Salt Lake. Most tourists choose to stay in Golmud city, where there are many cost-effective accommodation options: 1. Chain hotels like Hanting/Home Inn: Clean and hygienic, affordable prices, generally 200 - 300 yuan per night. 2. Local B&Bs: You can experience more authentic Qinghai life, and the prices are also relatively affordable, you can find decent conditions for around 200 yuan. Remember to book in advance, especially during the peak tourist season from July to September. Choose hotels close to Kunlun Square for convenient access to the early commuter bus.

Lake Tekapo is really well-deserved. When I saw it on a sunny day, I couldn't believe my eyes.

Here are a few places I recommend, you can follow my route, I strongly recommend you to go, you can take 800 photos!!! 1️⃣ Go to "Astro Cafe" in the morning. This coffee is amazing! I would call it "the most beautiful cafe on earth" ☕ The most worthwhile place in Tekapo! No objection! The cafe is located at the "University of Canterbury Observatory", you must go here first, because it is only open until 2 pm, and vehicles entering the observatory need to queue, but we only waited for 20 mins, not too long... You can order some food and drinks to take pictures on the table, just learn from me how to take pictures hahaha 📸 (It is said to be open only on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so we went on Friday to be safe) 2️⃣ There is a ⛰ big rock a few steps down from the cafe!!! You must go! A great place to take photos! I am tired of saying it, you will regret it if you don't go... 3️⃣ Then go to "Lake McGregor Campervan Site", a treasure place discovered by our group. The trees 🌲 by the lake are very beautiful. Sisters with good balance can sit on the trees to take pictures, like the movie poster of "Flipped"! 4️⃣ After going down the mountain, go to "Church of the Good Shepherd ⛪️", which is also a must-see church in Tekapo! You can walk to the lake from the church, and there are many lupines 🌸 this season, which are super beautiful~ 5️⃣ If you want to have fine dining for dinner, you can go to "Dark Sky Diner" 🍽 with a good view. If you don't care about the environment, you can go to "Ramen Tekapo" 🍜. Asian food is not bad, which comforted my Chinese stomach!

A long-awaited spot, I finally got to experience the Mountain Edge Cafe this time—embracing the idyllic life of "picking chrysanthemums by the eastern fence, leisurely gazing at the southern mountains." Beyond snapping photos, I made sure to bask by the flower-filled window where sunlight poured in 💐 Feeding calves under the shade of trees 🐂—now that’s the proper way for modern youth to unwind!

The B&B is called **Yuanye Villa·Slide Pool·Holiday Villa**, a party-themed retreat perfect for young people. It offers top-notch amenities, including free KTV, a game room, hot springs, BBQ, outdoor movies, and bonfire parties. The slide pool stands out among Anji’s B&Bs, dialing up the chic vacation vibes.

The whole villa is equipped with Lefine noise-canceling hair dryers, a fridge, a projector, and a smart toilet—ideal for young travelers like us who care about accommodation quality. We stayed in the **Moonlit Bamboo Room**, featuring: - A 270° swing chair balcony + bathtub + AI smart system - Floor-to-ceiling windows with unobstructed views - A balcony overlooking endless green cliffs Surrounded by sunlight and fresh air~~ Soaking in the tub at night washed away the city’s fatigue, making me feel like a true mountain hermit~ 📍B&B address: No. 60, Changlongshan Natural Village, Shangshu Township, Anji

After spending a day here, I really didn't want to go back to Chengdu! I dragged my partner to the mountains for the weekend, and after just one night, neither of us wanted to leave. We didn't want to go back to the city and be workhorses again.🐮 The moment I stepped into Suxian Valley, it was like stepping into a wonderland forgotten by time.

Listen up! When visiting Hangzhou during May Day holiday, avoid the crowded Broken Bridge and Lingyin Temple. Even the most beautiful places lose their charm when overcrowded. Hangzhou actually has many hidden gems to explore. Today I'm sharing a secret route just for you ✔️ Forest greenery ✔️ Academic atmosphere ✔️ Flowing streams This route reveals another side of Hangzhou Perfect for leisurely strolls during this spring-to-summer transition . 🚶City walk route: Orioles Singing in the Willows➡Wansong Academy➡White Snake Flying Bridge➡Changqiao Park➡Changqiao Stream Ecological Park➡Silk Museum . 1️⃣ Orioles Singing in the Willows 🎫Free One of the Ten Scenes of West Lake, this spring-famous attraction sees fewer tourists due to its slightly remote location. When spring arrives, thousands of weeping willows sway in the breeze while orioles sing, making you feel like you've stepped into a classical painting of Jiangnan. 📸For Instagram-worthy photos, navigate to "New Henghe Bridge." Best lighting and fewer people before 9 AM 2️⃣ Wansong Academy 🎫10 yuan One of Hangzhou's oldest academies and the legendary place where Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai "studied together for three years."

The surroundings are peaceful with only occasional locals taking walks, making it perfect for traditional-style photography. 4️⃣ Changqiao Park and Changqiao Stream Ecological Park 🎫Free Changqiao Park is named after the "Eighteen Farewells" legend of Liang and Zhu, but the real surprise is the adjacent "Changqiao Stream Ecological Park."

I happened to be back in Melbourne during Yayoi Kusama's polka dot exhibition, and I definitely couldn't miss it. Many exhibits are being shown in Australia for the first time, and the popularity is evident in the fact that tickets need to be purchased several days in advance. 🎫 How to book: This exhibition is extremely popular, so be sure to purchase tickets in advance on the NGV's official website to avoid sell-outs. If you prefer a less crowded viewing experience, it's recommended to book the earliest time slot, around 9:00 am, when there are the fewest people. 💰 AUD 38 ❤️ Must-see photo spots: Most of the amazing photo opportunities are in Part 2. 1️⃣ World premiere! The stunning new work - the kaleidoscopic Infinity Mirrored Room. It's like stepping into a parallel universe! 2️⃣ Australian premiere! The 5-meter-tall sculpture "Dancing Pumpkin" is super cute and incredibly photogenic. 3️⃣ Classic polka dot paintings + immersive mirror rooms + psychedelic sculptures - every room is a great photo op. 4️⃣ Pumpkin Mirror Room: There's a queue, and each person only has about 20 seconds to look around. You won't have time to use a camera here, so it's recommended to use your phone to take pictures through the small opening. 📌 Exhibition tips: 1️⃣ Attire: It's recommended to wear form-fitting clothing in solid colors (black, white, beige, or other low-saturation colors). The exhibition is full of highly saturated colors and patterns, which might be overwhelming for those with trypophobia. 2️⃣ Viewing order: You can scan your ticket and enter up to half an hour before your entry time. You must visit Part 1 before Part 2. If you see Part 2 first, you won't be able to go back to Part 1, as tickets are scanned separately for each part. 3️⃣ Bring a friend who's good at taking photos, and be patient. The popular spots require quick shots and waiting. 4️⃣ There are also many photo opportunities in the public areas on the first floor. You can take photos for free with a pumpkin sculpture, a field of silver balls, and the polka dot balloons hanging from the ceiling in the rest area. 5️⃣ The exhibition merchandise is also great. I ended up buying a polka dot backpack and a makeup bag. 📍 National Gallery of Victoria ⏰ Dates: December 15, 2024–April 21, 2025, 9:00 am–5:00 pm

For the last few days of this trip, I decided to spend them leisurely at the second Aman resort on the southern coast of Sri Lanka. The space and natural scenery are beautiful, but the service is indeed below Aman standards. - In terms of design, Amanwella is the work of in-house designer Kerry Hill, and the design techniques show a great degree of respect for Geoffrey Bawa. From the hotel gate, Bawa's favorite lines are used without concealment. Whether in the public areas or guest rooms, the designer clearly blurs the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces through sliding doors, revolving doors, and a large number of hollow partitions, allowing the interior space to be more integrated into the natural environment. The red roof of the hotel may be a tribute to the iconic traditional Sri Lankan clay tile "Kandyan roof". Integrating traditional culture with modernism is also a major architectural concept of Bawa's works. The space element I like most in the entire hotel is the cloister at the entrance. In addition to its highly symmetrical aesthetics, the large areas of blank walls seem to give nature full play. In the afternoon, the sunlight casts the shadows of the vegetation onto the walls, poetically enriching the space with life. - In terms of service, it is quite disappointing. First of all, the ghostly room service that Aman should have does not exist at Amanwella. I encountered housekeeping several times. One day, after having breakfast and spending two or three hours at the pool, I returned to the room and found that it had not been cleaned. Even after staying for four days, many of the staff did not know our room number. Also an Aman in Sri Lanka, the service at Amangalla can be described as attentive. After checking in, I was never asked for my room number, and the butler would ask me every day if my cold was getting better. The cave tour in the reserved package was also forgotten when it came to arranging a time for us. Although we didn't plan to go anyway, they should have at least discussed our itinerary. In terms of hardware, the guest rooms are very noisy due to the sound of the waves, so I suggest that light sleepers remember to bring earplugs. The mosquito and insect prevention in the rooms is not very good, and ants crawl on the bed every day. It can be said that the service at Amanwella is rather lazy and does not meet Aman standards. - The experiences and activities here are still relatively rich. There are three national parks where you can go on safari, and there are many choices for marine activities, as well as local cultural experiences. On the second day of our stay, we went on a safari in Yala National Park. We had to leave very early, and the hotel prepared a breakfast box. On the way to the national park, we saw a beautiful sunrise. It is a pity that we did not see a Ceylon leopard. We originally planned to do some light surfing, but the waves were quite big these few days, so we gave up the marine activities. Amanwella Hotel

I recently discovered a super treasure travel destination - JianShui, Yunnan! There are no crowds of people at popular attractions. Only a slow pace of life and a strong sense of everyday life. It's simply a breath of fresh air in the tourism industry! - 🚗 Transportation: You can first go to Kunming, then take a bullet train to JianShui, or you can drive yourself. 📝 Travel Guide: 🏯 JianShui Ancient City As soon as you step into JianShui Ancient City, it's like traveling back to ancient times in an instant. The ancient city hides the most authentic atmosphere of JianShui, with bluestone roads connecting the streets and alleys. 🚂 JianShui Train You must take the JianShui Train! This is one of the few meter-gauge trains in the country, slowly traveling through picturesque scenery, as if time has slowed down. Lin'an Station 🚂: The train starts here. The station is a retro Republic of China-style building. The wooden structure is matched with old photos, full of ritual, and the photos are super beautiful. Remember to take more photos 📸 🌉 Shuanglong Bridge Also known as the Seventeen-Arch Bridge, this is a landmark landscape of JianShui. Spanning the intersection of the Lujiang River and the Tachong River, it looks magnificent from a distance. There are three bridge corridors on the bridge, the middle one is large and the two sides are small, with a unique design. At dusk, the setting sun shines on the bridge, and the water is sparkling, so beautiful that you can't speak, and the photos are super beautiful! 🚉 Xianghuiqiao Station Xianghuiqiao Station is full of French style. French architecture and Chinese retro style are perfectly integrated, which is very photogenic! The roof of the station is a Chinese-style roof ridge with black tiles, but the exterior wall is a French-style stone castle. Although it is a bit old, it has a more historical flavor. 🚉 Tuanshan Station Tuanshan Station is the last stop of the train. The station building combines Chinese and Western styles and is very distinctive. From here, you can visit Tuanshan residential buildings. Most of the Tuanshan residential buildings were built in the late Qing Dynasty, with typical "three courtyards and one screen wall" and "four courtyards and five patios" forms, with white walls and black tiles, exquisite and beautiful.

🚗Day 1: West Lake Classic Loop + Night Tour of Hefang Street 🌅Morning: West Lake Highlights ① Broken Bridge: Arrive before 7 AM to avoid crowds and experience the romantic setting of "Legend of the White Snake." The rowing boats in the morning mist against the lake scenery resemble a Chinese ink painting. ② Bai Causeway Stroll: Walk from Broken Bridge along Bai Causeway to Solitary Hill, passing by "Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake." Visit Xiling Seal Society (perfect photo spot with red walls and dark tiles). ③ Hand-rowed Boat Tour: Choose the "Guozhuang to Maojiabu" route (about 180 yuan/hour), glide through reed marshes, encounter ducks and water lilies, while boatmen share vivid West Lake legends. 🍜Lunch Recommendations: Lou Wai Lou (must-try West Lake Vinegar Fish and Dongpo Pork), or try Dragon Well Shrimp at "Tea Village" on Beishan Street. 🌇Afternoon: Leifeng Pagoda + Su Causeway ① Leifeng Pagoda: Climb for panoramic views of West Lake, best at sunset for amazing light and shadows. Use a telephoto lens to capture the pagoda's reflection on the lake. ② Su Causeway Cycling: Rent a shared bike to ride along Su Causeway, stopping at Flower Harbor to feed koi fish and admire lotus flowers (summer only). 🌃Evening: Hefang Street + Southern Song Imperial Street ① Hefang Street: Avoid the main street, turn into Dajing Lane to try Grandma Sun's Scallion Pancakes (10 yuan/serving) and Jiaoutan's osmanthus lotus root powder. ② Southern Song Imperial Street: When the lanterns light up, visit "Southern Song Bookstore" and "Cat's Sky Castle" to experience the blend of ancient and modern street life. 🛕Day 2: Lingyin Temple Zen + Song Dynasty Time Travel 🌞Morning: Lingyin Temple + Faxisi Temple ① Lingyin Temple: Enter before 6:30 AM to avoid tour groups. First worship at the Grand Hall, touch the temple threshold for good luck, and get free incense at the Medicine Buddha Hall. ② Flying Peak Rock Carvings: See Song Dynasty Buddha statues and Ji Gong's bed, climb to the top for a panoramic view of Lingyin. ③ Faxisi Temple: Take a sightseeing car or walk to Upper Tianzhu. Popular photo spot (right corridor of the Grand Hall) - wear plain clothes for better photos.

Transportation: West Lake scenic area has weekend traffic restrictions! Subway + shared bikes are most convenient; taking a taxi to Lingyin Temple is recommended (about 30 yuan). 2. Avoiding Tourist Traps: Choose "hand-rowed boats" or "oar boats" on West Lake, avoid motorboats (poor experience); Silk shops on Hefang Street are mostly for tourists - buy authentic silk at "Wensli" flagship stores. 3. Money-saving Tips: Half-price admission on Wednesdays (Lingyin Temple, Xixi Wetland, etc.); Hangzhou Culture & Tourism Card (99 yuan/year) offers free entry to 50+ attractions. 4. Outfit Suggestions: Wear Hanfu/qipao at West Lake, plain clothes at Lingyin Temple, and bring mosquito repellent for Xixi Wetland. 💡Summary: From West Lake's morning mist to Songcheng's evening lights, from Lingyin's sandalwood incense to the sound of oars on the Grand Canal, Hangzhou lets you understand the poetic beauty and vibrant life of this "Paradise on Earth" in just three days!

Super comprehensive travel guide for Qarhan Salt Lake, hit the road after reading! Qarhan Salt Lake, China's largest salt lake, covers a vast area of 5800 square kilometers, 56 times the size of Chaka Salt Lake. It's beautiful with few people, as stunning as a dreamlike fairyland! Here, you can see unique landscapes like salt flowers, salt bridges, and salt sculptures. The lake water is an emerald green like apple soda, and any casual shot turns into a masterpiece. I. Transportation Guide 1. Self-driving: Starting from Golmud, take the G3011 Liuge Expressway, and you can arrive in about 1.5 hours. The road condition is good, and you can also enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Gobi highway along the way, with any casual shot becoming a highway masterpiece. Self-driving cars can only be parked outside the scenic area, and you need to transfer to the scenic area bus to enter. The seats on the right side inside the bus offer better views. 2. Public Transportation: ◦ At Zhufeng Building on the east side of Kunlun Square in Golmud city, there are factory commuter buses going there, about one every hour, with a fare of 15 - 20 yuan. ◦ Taking a taxi round trip from Golmud city costs about 150 yuan and can take you directly to the Salt Lake Museum. ◦ There is a train from Golmud to Qarhan at 9:00 every day, with a ticket price of 8.5 yuan, but it is still some distance from the scenic area after getting off the train. II. Consumption Guide 1. Ticket Price: Peak season (May - October) 100 yuan/person, off-season (November - April) prices are slightly lower. The ticket includes the scenic area bus fee. 2. Discount Policy: Children under 1.2 meters, seniors over 70 years old, soldiers, people with disabilities, etc., are exempt from tickets; students and minors aged 6 - 18 enjoy half-price tickets; tourists from Zhejiang province are exempt from tickets with their ID card, only needing to purchase the bus/sightseeing vehicle ticket. 3. Other Costs: Round trip sightseeing vehicle 30 yuan; glass boat photo 30 yuan/person; drone rental price depends on the model; there are also some local snacks and souvenirs sold in the scenic area, the prices are reasonable and not too outrageous. III. Play Guide 1. Best Time to Visit: June - October is the golden season, July - September the climate is pleasant and the lake water color is most vibrant. It is recommended to visit after 3 PM daily, when the light is soft and you can capture the most beautiful reflection effects; there are fewer people in the morning and it is quieter, but the temperature is lower. Note that when the sun is directly overhead at noon, the lake surface reflects strongly, making it easy to overexpose portraits, so remember to bring sunglasses. 2. Must-visit Attractions: ◦ Ten Thousand Zhang Salt Bridge: A road 32 kilometers long, completely paved with salt, with a hardness comparable to asphalt roads. When the road surface is damaged, pouring some brine can automatically repair it. Standing on the bridge, there is an endless salt lake on both sides, and on a sunny day, the sky is reflected in it, which is breathtakingly beautiful. ◦ Salt Flower Spectacle: Salt crystals formed by the evaporation of lake water, with strange and varied shapes, some like coral, some like pavilions and towers, and some like birds and beasts. The best viewing spot is near the Salt Lake Museum, which also houses precious "Salt Lake Oddity" crystal specimens. ◦ Lakeside Swing: White swings are set up by the lush green lake, swaying gently in the wind, creating a perfect photo atmosphere! It is recommended to wear brightly colored dresses, but remember to bring a jacket, as the wind is strong and the temperature is low by the lake. ◦ Reef Cluster: Salt reef clusters of various shapes, as if in a fantasy landscape of an alien planet, with excellent aerial photography effects, capable of capturing a spectacular scene like "Thousand Island Lake". ◦ Salt Lake Museum: Free to enter, here you can learn about the history of the salt lake's formation and the mining process. The salt flower crystals displayed in the museum are beautiful, and the "Salt Lake Oddity" at the entrance is a popular photo spot. 3. Tour Route: Take the scenic shuttle bus for 30 minutes to enter the scenic area (sit on the right side when entering). After getting off, you can choose to walk or take the sightseeing vehicle to tour the salt lake, the round trip is 4 kilometers. The sightseeing vehicle is 15 yuan/person for a single trip. It is recommended to take the vehicle there and walk back, as the scenery is better later on, and there are fewer people, making it better for photos. IV. Accommodation Guide There are almost no accommodation facilities around Qarhan Salt Lake. Most tourists choose to stay in Golmud city, where there are many cost-effective accommodation options: 1. Chain hotels like Hanting/Home Inn: Clean and hygienic, affordable prices, generally 200 - 300 yuan per night. 2. Local B&Bs: You can experience more authentic Qinghai life, and the prices are also relatively affordable, you can find decent conditions for around 200 yuan. Remember to book in advance, especially during the peak tourist season from July to September. Choose hotels close to Kunlun Square for convenient access to the early commuter bus.

Lake Tekapo is really well-deserved. When I saw it on a sunny day, I couldn't believe my eyes. It was so blue that I doubted my life! 💙 Many people think the lake is not blue just because the weather is not right! A sunny day will definitely shock you! No need to edit! Here are a few places I recommend, you can follow my route, I strongly recommend you to go, you can take 800 photos!!! 1️⃣ Go to "Astro Cafe" in the morning. This coffee is amazing! I would call it "the most beautiful cafe on earth" ☕ The most worthwhile place in Tekapo! No objection! The cafe is located at the "University of Canterbury Observatory", you must go here first, because it is only open until 2 pm, and vehicles entering the observatory need to queue, but we only waited for 20 mins, not too long... You can order some food and drinks to take pictures on the table, just learn from me how to take pictures hahaha 📸 (It is said to be open only on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so we went on Friday to be safe) 2️⃣ There is a ⛰ big rock a few steps down from the cafe!!! You must go! A great place to take photos! I am tired of saying it, you will regret it if you don't go... 3️⃣ Then go to "Lake McGregor Campervan Site", a treasure place discovered by our group. The trees 🌲 by the lake are very beautiful. Sisters with good balance can sit on the trees to take pictures, like the movie poster of "Flipped"! 4️⃣ After going down the mountain, go to "Church of the Good Shepherd ⛪️", which is also a must-see church in Tekapo! You can walk to the lake from the church, and there are many lupines 🌸 this season, which are super beautiful~ 5️⃣ If you want to have fine dining for dinner, you can go to "Dark Sky Diner" 🍽 with a good view. If you don't care about the environment, you can go to "Ramen Tekapo" 🍜. Asian food is not bad, which comforted my Chinese stomach!
