Kunming Green Lake Park Welcomes the Best Season for Seagull Watching

Green Lake Park is located in the center of Kunming and is one of the city's iconic attractions. The park is surrounded by water and bamboo all year round, and willows in spring and summer, hence the name "Green Lake." The park has a long history and rich cultural heritage, and is known as the "Emerald" of Spring City. In the late Yuan Dynasty, it was called "Caihaizi," and because there were "nine springs converging into a pool" in the northeast of the lake, it was also called "Jiulong Pool." Every winter, the red-billed gulls that come from the north become a beautiful sight in the park, attracting tourists from all over the world. On September 25, 2002, Green Lake Park became the first free park in Kunming. In December 2018, it was rated as a spiritual civilization unit in Yunnan Province. In 2020, it was awarded the national 4A-level tourist attraction. Don't miss this treasure park when you come to Kunming!
