🍜Foodie Checklist
①Five-Color Sticky Rice (let your kids guess the natural food coloring sources).
②Roast Suckling Pig (crispy skin dipped in sour plum sauce, kids will love it).
③Wild Vegetable Soup (teach your kids to identify purslane).
④Bamboo Chicken (chopping your own bamboo adds to the experience).

⚠️Tips from Experience
✔️Dress your kids in quick-drying clothes! Waterfall mist will soak them in 5 minutes.
✔️Bring waterproof shoe covers! The ground in the Tiankeng is always damp.
✔️Pack mosquito repellent patches + long sleeves! The ecological area has aggressive mosquitoes.
✔️Rent a portable Wi-Fi hotspot! The signal can be unreliable in the border area.
✔️Use a polarizing filter on your camera! Perfect for capturing water and glass.

📸Picture-Perfect Spots
▪️Bamboo raft at Detian Waterfall (use 0.5x wide-angle to capture the entire waterfall).
▪️Hechi-Napo Expressway road signs (have your kids jump up and touch the "Most Beautiful Highway" sign).
▪️Tea plantation hotel terrace (capture the morning mist over the tea fields).
▪️1466 Camping swing (swing with the mountain range as your backdrop).

My kid's catchphrase now is "This explorer has crossed 23°N latitude!" 😂 The best part is it's not exhausting for parents, and the hotel service is incredibly thoughtful! Bring your kids along on this earth exploration adventure!
