Compared to Guizhou, my kids prefer this scenic and less crowded Puzhehei

🍃 Puzhehei—Yunnan's hidden summer paradise! Especially the lotus ponds in midsummer, so breathtakingly beautiful it leaves you speechless 🪷 Unlike the crowds in Guizhou, Puzhehei is like a secret garden for niche travelers! The lotus ponds shrouded in morning mist, the refreshing midday boat rides and water play 💦, and the golden lotus fields at sunset resembling Monet's paintings 🌄—best of all, no need to dodge tourists for photos, having the whole landscape to yourself feels amazing! - 🏨 Hotels we stayed at: Puzhehei Muke Qianxun Homestay The most beautiful secluded homestay in Puzhehei 🏡 with 180° unobstructed views of lakes and mountains, embracing rural countryside charm 🌾. The lush greenery outside the windows in summer is incredibly soothing, and it faces Qinglong Mountain with an outdoor pool perfect for kids to splash around. Hilton Fuxian Lake The most stunning Hilton in China, like stepping into a Tuscan castle-style estate in Italy. Miralle MGallery Overlooking the beauty of Dongfangyun across the lake, every corner is picturesque—like living in an artistic fairy tale. Jianshui Heyuan Hotel A three-courtyard ancient mansion showcasing Jianchuan woodcarving art. - 🌈 Our itinerary: D1: Kunming pickup - Fuxian Lake Arrive in Kunming, transfer to Hilton Fuxian Lake. Stroll by the lake with the kids at sunset 🌅—unbelievably beautiful. D2: Fuxian Lake - Jianshui Ancient Town Morning: Sailboat experience on Fuxian Lake ⛵️, coffee at S-bend ☕️, and lake exploration. Afternoon: Head to Jianshui Ancient Town 🏯, a relaxed small town where locals showed us around. D3: Jianshui - Puzhehei Morning: Ride the century-old mini train 🚂 to Puzhehei. Afternoon: Visit Puzhehei, filming location of "Eternal Love," like a divine paradise 🍃—serene rural scenery. Must-see summer lotus fields 🪷 and hike Qinglong Mountain for sunset 🌄. D4: Puzhehei - Mile Morning: Explore Xianrendong 🌱 with its distant green peaks, tranquil bridges, and swaying clear waters... Afternoon: Visit Mile Dongfengyun—jaw-dropping red-brick castles 🏰 that feel like abroad! Perfect for photos, every shot is stunning. D5: Mile - Kunming drop-off Morning: Free time at the hotel or more Dongfengyun exploration before heading home.
