Autumn in Kunming: Stunning Metasequoia Forest

Kunming Autumn Break|Stay at an Artistic Hotel & Visit a Gorgeous Wetland Park

On this trip to Kunming, I discovered two amazing spots: Anshe Kaimili Art Hotel and Laoyuhe Wetland Park—a combination that's simply perfect😍

🏨 Anshe Kaimili Hotel
Located at 86 Dongfeng East Road, I absolutely love this place! The French minimalist decor hits every aesthetic point for me, and the smart home system plus washer-dryer combo are perfect for a lazy person like me. The biggest surprise was the petal bathtub—soaking with bath salts instantly healed the exhaustion from a hectic day~ Special shoutout to the front desk lady whose smile is just too sweet☺️ The hotel is right in the city center’s cultural and creative park, just a 5-minute walk to the subway station, super convenient.

🌲 Laoyuhe Wetland Park
This metasequoia forest in Chenggong District is definitely Kunming’s autumn beauty icon! I recommend going between 3-5 PM to capture the sunlight filtering through the red metasequoias—it's breathtaking📸 PS: Wearing light-colored clothes will make your photos pop even more~ Don’t forget a jacket, the wind by Dianchi Lake is strong.

✨ Handy Tips:
1⃣️ The hotel is about a 40-minute drive from Laoyuhe, so taking a taxi is recommended.
2⃣️ The park closes entry at 7:00 PM, so plan your time well if you want to catch the sunset.
3⃣️ Be sure to try the Yunnan rice noodles at the hotel breakfast—they’re more authentic than many popular spots outside.
4⃣️ For photography lovers, ask the front desk for rooms on the 2nd or 3rd floor; they have a stunning terrace.

This short trip perfectly embodies what it means to "sleep in art and wake up in scenery." Kunming is truly ideal for a weekend getaway!
