Spring in Yunnan holds ten thousand beautiful scenes.

If you're looking for spring this Labor Day, then check out this 3-day Yunnan self-driving guide.

Day 1: Arrive in Kunming and start your spring road trip. Spring has no direction; spring only has flowers blooming. The Kunming Botanical Garden is home to Monet's flowing oil paintings, and you can take home the whole spring for CNY 10 at Dounan Flower Market, Asia's largest fresh flower exchange. The jacarandas on Jiaochang Middle Road are Kunming's most romantic gift to spring.

Day 2: Head south to Mile. On this red land is a magical castle, architect Luo Xu's love letter to his hometown. In the kaleidoscope museum shaped like a wine bottle, sunlight dances with colored glass, and the vineyard spreads into the romance of southern France. Don't miss the Dongfengyun Scenic Pavilion Hotel, and become a part of the magic by staying here.

Day 3: Drive to Fuxian Lake. This is Yunnan's Maldives and a unique romantic gift from the plateau. The afternoon sun dyes the light red sand coral color, as dreamy as a fairy tale scene. At sunset, the lake turns the sunset into a glass of orange soda, healing the entire spring.
