As the first intangible cultural heritage of tea culture in China and even the world, Jingmai Mountain's popularity has skyrocketed. But did you know? Hidden within Jingmai's Ongji ancient village is a cafe nestled under a banyan tree, attracting coffee lovers with its unique attitude and self-consistent spirit. Strictly speaking, it's not purely a cafe, as it also sells tea and tea-based drinks. The owner, originally from Lincang, first came to Jingmai because of tea. Later, their interest in coffee grew, and their reputation blossomed, leading to the cafe as it is today. The cafe offers a wide variety of beans, and the owner is happy to share their coffee knowledge. Although not "professionally" or "systematically" trained, they possess a self-assured pride, insisting on manually roasting beans and hand-pouring every cup of coffee. They live in harmony with Jingmai's sunrises and sunsets, and the ever-changing sea of clouds. This is perhaps Yunnan's unique chill: the essence of living is life itself, and living your own life well is more important than anything else.

It feels like summer has come early to Kunming… 🌴If you only have one day in Kunming, Why not visit the Yunnan Nationalities Village to experience the ethnic customs and take some great photos? Step through the Anywhere Door: Visit more than 20 ethnic villages in a single day. Although each village in the park isn't very large, they capture the essence of each ethnic group's residential life. The landscaping is realistic, the scenery is beautiful, and the "villagers" in each village are all selected from the respective ethnic groups. It's like stepping through an Anywhere Door, quite interesting! 🚙 Transportation Driving is recommended. We departed from Menghai. The 2.5-hour drive included a section of gravel road about 10 km past the Jingmai Mountain checkpoint. There weren't any large potholes, but it was very bumpy, like a washboard. According to the villagers, the reason for not paving the road with asphalt is to prevent dust pollution in the tea plantation. However, the scenery along the way was very beautiful, sometimes giving the illusion of traveling through a primeval forest. 🏨 Accommodation There are many homestays in Ongi Ancient Village. The commercial facilities are also more developed, and there are more restaurants. It's an excellent location for viewing the sea of clouds. New construction isn't allowed in Nuogang Ancient Village, so there are fewer accommodations within the village itself. Most accommodations are in Nuogang New Village, about 1 km walk from the old village. 👣Must-visit villages: Dai Village: The first village you enter. Surrounded by water on three sides and shaded by green trees, it's full of rich Dai ethnic customs. Mosuo Marriage Customs ⌚️Mar 7–9 11:50–12:10 and 16:00–16:20 Experience unique ethnic marriage customs in a Mosuo courtyard, learn about the marriage customs of the people by Lugu Lake, and listen to Mosuo folk songs. Naxi Snacks ⌚️Mar 7–9 09:30–17:00 Naxi Village offers Naxi cuisine and specialty snacks. There are also Lisu and Bai villages…🖼️Beautiful scenery everywhere, making it easy to take ethnic-themed photos. Tips:💡 1. Visit time: Half a day or a full day is recommended (after 4pm, only night tickets are available. 6 villages are closed at night, but there are performances to watch). 2. The park is very large. There's a map and explanations on the mini program. You can also take the sightseeing bus. The driver will stop at the villages in order, give you time to take photos, and introduce each ethnic group. 3. There are also various ethnic foods in the park. You can purchase them according to your needs. It's convenient, but the prices are a bit high. 4. The last image shows how to purchase tickets. In short, if you have a day to spend in Xishan District, the Nationalities Village is highly recommended and worth a visit!

We drove from Lincang, Yunnan, to Jingmai Mountain in Pu'er. We spent two days here, enjoying the sunrise and sunset over Jingmai Mountain 🌄 and the ancient tea forests. Although we missed the legendary sea of clouds, overall, Jingmai Mountain is still worth a visit. 📍Jingmai Mountain Scenic Area Located in Pu'er, Yunnan, the Jingmai Mountain Scenic Area is vast, and self-driving is recommended. 🚗Our itinerary: DAY 1: The same banyan tree from the show "A Place Called Home" 👉 Enter Jingmai Mountain Scenic Area 👉 Dapingzhang Ancient Tea Forest 👉 Wengji Ancient Village 👉 Manghong Village DAY 2: Manghong Village 👉 Princess Banyan Tree in Mangjing Village 👉 Bee King Tree 👉 Nuogan Ancient Village My favorite spots: 🔴Jingmai Mountain Ancient Tea Forest (Free) There is no entrance fee for the Jingmai Mountain Scenic Area. The road is surrounded by tea gardens and ancient trees. Driving through the lush, towering forests on both sides feels like traveling through time. 🔴Wengji Ancient Village (Free) Deep in the jungle of Jingmai Mountain, the village is built on the mountainside. There's a viewing platform at the back where you can see the distant mountains. I heard that if there's a sea of clouds in the morning, the village is often beneath it. 🔴Nuogan Ancient Village (Free) This is a traditional Dai village, only ten minutes away from Wengji. The village is small, and now every family is in the tea business, as Jingmai Mountain is famous for Pu'er tea. If you're tired, you can go to a farmhouse and have some tea. Every household hangs many huge dried string beans, which the locals call "ping'an dou" (peace beans). 🔴Princess Banyan Tree, right by the roadside. We stopped to take a picture. It's unique, with the roots of the banyan tree splitting into two sides, like a giant gate. There are many such peculiar banyan trees in Jingmai Mountain! 🔴Manghong Village is mainly a place to watch the sunrise and sunset. We stayed here for the night. There's a restaurant in the village called "Tamarind Tree Private Kitchen" that tastes good. 🔆Tips 1. There's a large temperature difference in Jingmai Mountain during this season. It's hot during the day, but cold in the morning and evening, especially when watching the sunrise and sunset. A jacket is recommended. 2. Jingmai Mountain is rich in Pu'er tea, and there are tea tasting and selling everywhere. Tea lovers can buy some to take home. 3. The roads inside Jingmai Mountain Scenic Area are cobblestone and mountain roads, so drive slowly. 4. Besides Pu'er tea, Jingmai Mountain is all about watching the sunrise, sea of clouds, and sunset. It's recommended to stay overnight.

Hey everyone, I just got back from a week-long in-depth trip to Pu'er, Yunnan, and I've put together these super practical travel tips. I really hope they'll help you out 🥹 Travel Suggestions Jingmai Mountain: Absolutely Stunning! Western Yunnan is a paradise for food, fun, and adventure, and Pu'er is seriously underrated 😭 The beauty of Jingmai Mountain can only be truly appreciated in person. Skip the Check-in Tourism Don't listen to online guides that say you can visit Jingmai Mountain and Pu'er in a single day. This kind of rushed trip will only leave you exhausted and diminish your overall travel experience. Instead, slow down, find a cafe, and enjoy the laid-back atmosphere. A Coffee Lover's Paradise Pu'er is full of coffee shops, and most coffee plantations offer free tours, though you'll have to pay for the coffee. If you're looking for unique experiences, this is a great option. Accommodation Recommendations - For those who prefer peace and quiet, I recommend staying near the university town. It's close to Meizi Lake, and you can walk to watch the sunset 🌄 - In Jingmai Mountain, Wengji is the perfect spot for sunset views; if you want to experience local culture, choose Nuogan, a lively village full of local charm. Transportation - Taxis are readily available in Pu'er, but the fare from Simao to the coffee plantations can be quite expensive. Remember to book your ride in advance 🚗 Otherwise, you might not be able to find a taxi. - If you want to visit multiple villages in Jingmai Mountain but don't have a car, you can search for "Jin Kongque" on the mini-program to buy tickets to Huimin Town. Attractions along the way include the Golden Pagoda Temple, Jingmai Dazhai, Jingmai Golden Pagoda, the Ancient Tea Forest, and Nuogan Ancient Village. However, during the off-season, the schedule of the scenic bus can be unpredictable, so chartering a car or joining a carpool might be more convenient. Hidden Gems Pu'er sees very few tour groups and hasn't been overly commercialized. You don't have to worry about tourist traps, so relax and enjoy a pure travel experience. Picture-Perfect Spots If you can only choose one ancient town, go for Nuogan in Jingmai Mountain! It's incredibly photogenic 📸 Most of the shops are run by locals and are full of character. An Afternoon in Nuogan Be sure to set aside an entire afternoon for Nuogan. Enjoy a cup of hot milk tea in the heart of the village and soak in the tranquility and beauty. Travel Tips Don't ride an electric scooter. It's a bumpy ride and requires serious driving skills. Sunscreen is Essential The sun in Pu'er is intense, especially for women. Be sure to wear sunscreen, or you'll get several shades darker in no time. Restaurant Recommendations Meizi Coffee is great for photos, but it's very popular and you'll likely have to wait in line. Food Recommendations - Pu'er Bai Nationality Cold Noodles: Refreshing and flavorful. - Axianjia Sour Hawthorn: Incredibly delicious with rice. I'd go back to Pu'er just for this! They have a huge variety. - Zhadian Fresh Milk: Rich and creamy, definitely worth trying. Places to Avoid Shimeiniang Restaurant. Local friends say they generally don't eat there. Weather Check Pu'er has been experiencing frequent rain lately, so be sure to check the weather forecast before you go.
