I've returned from Heqing and really don't recommend visiting in February.

🌄In the long river of time, some places, like bright stars, exude a unique charm, attracting travelers to rush towards them. Heqing, Yunnan, is such a place full of poetry and romance, especially in warm February, it is like a slowly unfolding landscape painting, waiting for us to explore. Next, I will present a 2-day Heqing travel guide. 📦Preliminary preparation: - Check the weather forecast. The temperature in Heqing in February is moderate, but the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, so remember to bring a warm jacket🧥. - Prepare sun protection products, such as sun hats, sunscreen, sunglasses, etc. The ultraviolet rays in the plateau area cannot be underestimated🌞. - Book your accommodation in advance so that you can easily check in upon arrival. 🚗Travel route: - Day 1: - Morning: After arriving in Heqing, head to Xinhua Village. This is a famous silverware town. As soon as you enter the village, you can feel the strong Bai ethnic customs and exquisite silver craftsmanship. Stroll along the ancient streets, admire the dazzling array of silverware, and watch the craftsmen make it on site, experiencing the art at your fingertips🎨. - Afternoon: Go to Caohai Wetland. Caohai is a pearl of Heqing. In February, Caohai has lush water plants and clear lake water. You can choose to take a boat, shuttle through the reeds, watch various water birds up close🦆, and feel the tranquility and beauty of nature. - Day 2: - Morning: Head to Yunhe Ancient Town. This ancient town is full of historical charm, with antique buildings and slate roads, as if taking you back in time. Stroll through the local market and feel the strong atmosphere of daily life🎈. - Afternoon: Go to Huanglongtan. Huanglongtan is surrounded by lush trees, and the water is as green as a mirror. The distant snow-capped mountains are reflected in it, forming a beautiful landscape painting. Here you can take photos and leave good memories📷. 🍜Local cuisine: - Heqing Rice Cake: Soft, glutinous, sweet, and delicious, it is a local traditional delicacy that you must try🥧. - Chui gan (Blown Liver): This is a unique Bai ethnic delicacy. The specially treated pig liver tastes delicious and has a unique flavor. - Sheng pi (Rawhide): A Bai ethnic specialty dish, made with fresh pork, roasted over a fire, sliced thinly, and served with a special dipping sauce. It is very delicious🐷. 🏠Accommodation guide: - Xinhua Village Inn: Staying in Xinhua Village allows you to easily experience silverware making and feel the Bai ethnic customs. The inn environment is also very distinctive, allowing you to better integrate into local life🛏️. - Yunhe Ancient Town Homestay: Friends who like the ancient town atmosphere can choose to stay in Yunhe Ancient Town. The ancient town at night has a unique charm, and it is also very convenient to travel around. 🎉Heqing in February has beautiful scenery, delicious food, and rich culture, each exuding a unique charm. This two-day trip may just be a glimpse, but the beauty of Heqing will definitely be deeply imprinted in your heart. Come to Heqing and start a romantic journey of your own!
