Puer Nakeli | Not Just an Ancient Town, but Also Mountains, Streams, and Wilderness

| Not just an ancient town, but also mountains, streams, and wilderness. Anyone who travels to Puer will be recommended to visit Nakeli, and it is indeed a place worth visiting. The ancient town is small (the core area is much smaller than other ancient towns in Yunnan), but it is also large (there are mountains to climb, streams and green spaces to hike and camp). There are also chickens, ducks, and geese wandering around the town, which are very cute. However, most tourists only check in at the core area of the ancient town, have a cup of coffee, and leave, which is a bit of a waste. I hiked in the surrounding mountains for a long time before returning to the core area of the ancient town and chatted with the owner of the Deqing Mountain Coffee Shop. She said that most of the businesses in the town are run by locals. Most of them get off work on time, make some money, and go home early to drink. This is the spirit of Nakeli. Here are some interesting little places to share: Rotten Wood: On the edge of the ancient town, there is a large group of rotten wood, and people look very small inside. It is quite spectacular up close. I also found a wild chicken mother living with two chicks in the rotten wood group, which is very cute. Climbing the Mountain: Opposite the rotten wood group, across the stream, there is a mountain road. The mountain is full of large bamboo, and the color of the new bamboo is particularly beautiful, with a fresh dark green. The mountain is not high, and you can look out at the mountains from above, or look down at the large lawn below. I saw a family camping in the distance, with a white van parked on the green grassland, which is also a beautiful scenery. Stream: Along the direction next to the rotten wood group all the way up, there is a stream with clear water and trees blocking it. I ate the fruit and snacks brought out by the hotel by the stream, and this simple picnic with such a view is very pleasant. Kitten: The kitten outside the long pavilion often sits on the railing in a daze, looking like a clean and cute lucky cat from a distance. I passed by twice, and I couldn't help but touch it and tease it. After two minutes, the cat impatiently turned around and went back. It seemed to think I was childish. Outside the Ancient Town: Opposite the ancient town, there are streams, waterwheels, and stilted buildings, which are also worth visiting.
