Seriously! If you want to chase snow around Kunming, Jiaozishan Snow Mountain is truly a place you can visit countless times and never get tired of!

Jiaozishan Snow Mountain, right after a snowfall and with clear skies, is so beautiful it leaves you speechless! The entire mountain is covered in a thick 'sugar frosting,' clouds and mist drift around the mountain peaks, and the tree branches are adorned with sparkling rime ice. Walking through it feels like stepping into a real-life ice and snow fairy tale, and any photo you take is a blockbuster without needing filters~ 💡Practical Tips: 1. To chase the snow, go early! It's best to go within 24 hours after a snowfall, as soon as the sun comes out, the snow starts to melt and the rime ice easily falls off. If you go too late, you won't see this spectacular scenery! 2. It's super cold on the mountain! Make sure to wear non-slip snow boots + a thick down jacket; a scarf, gloves, and a hat are essential. Bring several heat patches and stick them inside your clothes. 3. There's accumulated snow on the hiking trails, so it's recommended to bring a trekking pole (you can also rent one on the mountain). It can save you a lot of effort and prevent falls. 4. The altitude is a bit high, so don't run too fast; walk slowly. If you feel uncomfortable, stop and rest for a bit, and drink plenty of warm water.
