Kunming Lake with its vast expanse of misty waves

Must you go hiking in the mountains? 💫 As someone who has fallen in love, my favorite place is Kunming Lake in the Summer Palace~ 🕒 Opening hours: ✔️4.1-10.31: 6:00-20:00 (last entry at 19:00) ✔️11.1-3.31: 6:30-19:00 (last entry at 18:00) 📍Address: No. 19 Xinjian Gongmen Road, Haidian District 📸 Photo recommendations: On cloudy days with misty rain 🌧️ The lake surface looks like it’s covered with a light veil Willows gently reflected in the lake 🍃 Every shot looks like an ink painting! On sunny days with rippling blue waves 💙 The 2,000-acre lake stretches as far as the eye can see You might even feel like you’ve arrived at the seaside 🌊 ✨ Hiking tips: 1⃣️ It’s recommended to enter from Xinjian Gongmen Gate 2⃣️ The clockwise lakeside trail is the most classic 3⃣️ The 6 km lakeside route is beginner-friendly 4⃣️ Remember to wear comfortable shoes 👟 Each season is beautifully different I’ve visited so many times and never get tired of it!
