Let's go to the place in Yunnan that was first called Yunnan: Yunnan Post

As a lover of ancient towns and cities, I recently visited the Bell and Drum Tower and Yunnan Post in Xiangyun County, and was deeply attracted by the lively atmosphere of the Bell and Drum Tower and the historical sense of Yunnan Post! 🍠Bell and Drum Tower The Bell and Drum Tower was built in the 19th year of the Hongwu era of the Ming Dynasty (1386), with the lower level connecting the streets in all four directions. Above each of the four stone archways, there is a rectangular horizontal stone plaque, with the east reading 'Hui Lian Dong Pi', the west 'Rui Qi Xi Yuan', the south 'Cai Huan Nan Yun', and the north 'En Cheng Bei Que'. The entire Bell and Drum Tower is exquisitely heavy and colorful, echoing the East City Gate from afar. Today, it has become a shopping and strolling hub in the county town, but you can still see old-fashioned barbershops and photo studios, which have a unique charm. 🍠Yunnan Post As the place that was first called Yunnan, it was an important post station on the Southwest Silk Road, stretching 1720 meters, with many old horse inns and shops, one can easily imagine its past glory; After touring, you can also go to the nearby Elephant Mountain Hot Spring for a soak, for more details you can refer to the Hot Spring Guide notes.
