In the Jingmai Mountain of Lancang There is an ancient village called Nuogan The village is simple and quiet Each household makes a living by tea planting The whole village is not big Now there are less than 300 households left It's one of the well-preserved original ancient villages in China without commercialization, which is really rare The Jingmai Mountain where the village is located is also applying for intangible cultural heritage Liu Haoran's movie 'One Point Straight Home' was also filmed here. This village is really my favorite among all the ancient villages I have visited. I want to stay here for a month doing nothing I went there in mid-February The whole Jingmai Mountain was already full of flowers. Actually, it's most beautiful to go there in March and April At this time, you can also experience tea picking Finally, some practical information: How to get there: You can choose to drive or take a bus. The overall road condition of Jingmai Mountain is asphalt road, but there are many winding mountain roads and bends. Be careful of oncoming vehicles when turning. How to shoot: The day I went happened to be a rainy day, so the photos taken have a very special feel. The rain turned the eaves into a deep blue color. The main shooting location is on the main road when you enter Nuogan Ancient Village. You can also go to the roof of a local Dai family's house to shoot, which is also very photogenic. When shooting, be sure to pay attention to exposure, do not overexpose ◆How to edit photos: You can edit towards dark and blue tones, with the highlights leaning towards blue and the shadows leaning towards blue-green ◆How to play: It is recommended to control the duration of the visit to two days and one night On the first day, you can stay in the neighboring Wengji Ancient Village, and play in each village for an afternoon In Wengji Ancient Village, you can see the sea of clouds in the parking lot, and both the village gate and the village center are suitable for check-in.

Nuogan Ancient Village is located in Huimin Town, Lancang Lahu Autonomous County, Pu'er City. Just search for "Nuogan Ancient Village" on your navigation app. This hidden gem, featured in National Geographic, is nestled in the clouds of Jingmai Mountain, surrounded by ancient tea gardens, and the air is filled with the aroma of tea! Getting There: ✈️ By Air: Fly directly to Lancang Jingmai Airport → Take the airport bus to the county bus station (¥25/person) → Transfer to a minibus to Huimin Town (¥15/person) → Take the village bus up the mountain (just tell the driver "Nuogan"). Check the schedule on the "Jin Kongque Ticketing" WeChat official account. It's recommended to take a screenshot of the timetable in advance. 🚗 By Car: Driving from Pu'er/Jinghong, the navigation shows a 3-hour drive? Don't believe it! With winding mountain roads and photo stops along the way, allow 4 hours to be safe. Rent an SUV so you can stop and capture some "humanistic blockbusters" when you encounter tea farmers drying their tea leaves. 🚌 Budget Travel: Take a bus from Pu'er/Xishuangbanna to Lancang County (¥60-80) → Transfer to a local bus to Huimin Town (¥15) → Take a villager's tricycle up the mountain (bargain for ¥10/person). It's easier than you might think, and you can enjoy listening to Dai aunties singing folk songs in their dialect! Must-See Attractions: 1️⃣ Village Center Pagoda: The centerpiece of the village! The golden spire peeks through the palm trees. Take a photo in Dai or Hanfu clothing, and your friends will think you're in Southeast Asia. 2️⃣ Century-Old Tea Soul Tree: The thousand-year-old ancient tea tree king at the entrance of the village. Its trunk takes three people to hug. Touch it for good luck (local legend says it blesses good tea sales). 3️⃣ Fire Pit House: A Dai grandmother's fire pit tea room. Enjoy glutinous rice roasted tea (¥5/cup) with fire pit baba, and listen to her tell ancient stories of "tea for salt." 4️⃣ Sea of Clouds Viewing Platform: Worth waking up early for! The 6:30 am sea of clouds looks like an ink painting. Capture it with your phone's 0.5x wide-angle lens for an epic shot. 5️⃣ Ancient Tea Horse Road Ruins: A flagstone path hidden in the bamboo forest. Walk for 10 minutes, tracing the hoofprints of a thousand years, and feel like you've stepped into the "Tea Horse Road" documentary. Tickets: The entire village is free! But for a deeper experience, consider: ✅ Tea Picking Experience: Pick tea with the farmers (¥50/hour, you can keep the tea you pick). ✅ Tea Workshop: Make your own tea cakes (¥100/cake, personalize them with your name for a perfect souvenir). ✅ Dai Bamboo Weaving: Learn to weave tea baskets from a heritage artisan (¥30/hour, use your finished product to carry your milk tea!). ⚠️ Warning: Avoid the unofficial guides at the village entrance who charge ¥20 for explanations. You can hear stories for free from the tea-selling grandmothers. Other Tips: 📸 Photo Tips: • Wear white or Morandi colors, which perfectly complement the earthy yellow rammed earth walls. • The light is softest between 4:00-5:00 pm. Capture portraits with a touch of magic as smoke rises from the village. • Drone use requires registration! The signal is weak at the top of the mountain, so manual operation is recommended. 🍜 Food Recommendations: • Must-try: Fire-roasted chicken (freshly caught and roasted), tea flower omelet (seasonal), sour bamboo shoot fish stew (freshly caught from the stream). • Proceed with caution: Cold tea sprouts (bitterly disappointing), bull's offal (for bitter tripe lovers only). • Souvenirs: 200-year-old ancient tea cakes (¥500-800), Dai woven bags (¥80), wild honey (¥30/jar). 💡 Hidden Gems: 1️⃣ Join the bonfire party on Friday nights and learn the elephant foot drum dance from Dai girls. 2️⃣ Go with the grandmothers to pick "dew tea" in the ancient tea forest in the early morning. It brews into a naturally sweet tea. 3️⃣ Rent Dai costumes at the village gate (¥20/set) and be a "Dai maiden" for half a day. 🚨 Warnings: ❌ Don't buy "thousand-year-old ancient tea" at the village entrance. Real ancient tea should be purchased from numbered tea farmers. ❌ Don't wear white shoes on rainy days! The flagstone paths are mossy and slippery. ❌ Don't be pressured into buying "expensive Pu'er tea" from villagers. Shop around and compare prices. Nuogan isn't a commercialized ancient town, but a living tea mountain museum. There are no bar streets, but you'll be awakened at 5:00 am by the rooster's crow and the aroma of tea. There are no trendy restaurants, but there's always a grandmother by the fire pit waiting to chat with you over a cup of tea. It's recommended to stay overnight to experience the slow pace of life. "Cloud Nuogan" is a recommended homestay where you can open your window to a view of the sea of clouds and ancient tea trees.

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!

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.
