Super satisfied rainy day 6 days 5 nights couple trip guide to Yunnan is here

Yunnan is really beautiful! Rainy days have a different feeling~

Day 1️⃣
Fly from Zhengzhou to Lijiang. We rented a car directly.
Drove to Lijiang Old Town, it was already night.
Had a wild mushroom hotpot inside the old town. The light rain made it so cozy.
Food: Chikunke · Yunnan Wild Mushroom Hotpot

Day 2️⃣
(Renting a car is really convenient, you can go wherever you want)
Got up early on the second day to drive to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Spruce Meadow.
You can drive directly to the scenic area parking lot and take a shuttle bus from the visitor center to the cable car.
Both attractions are in the same place, just buy a cable car combo ticket.
🌟 When we went, it was a rainy day.
Although it’s not as good as a sunny day, it has a different kind of beauty.
❗️ Be sure to pay attention to sun protection.
The UV rays are also strong on cloudy days. Got sunburned directly at Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.
Jianshan Courtyard Cafe is also nearby, can check in on the way.

Day 3️⃣
Drove from Lijiang to Shangri-La (about 2 hours).
We took Tibetan-style photos in Shangri-La! We chose a tree.
In Dukezong Ancient Town, the world’s largest prayer wheel is also here, but it looks better at night.
For photos, we drove to Napa Lake and the big prayer flags, which are also close by.

Day 4️⃣
Took the high-speed train from Lijiang to Dali. Rented a car in Dali as well.
Stayed near the old town and strolled around Dali Old Town (more commercialized).
Then went to Xindi Coffee.
You can capture the blue hour whether it’s sunny or rainy (around 8 o’clock).

Day 5️⃣
On the last day, drove around Erhai Lake. From Haixi to Haidong, checked in at several coffee shops.
▪️ First went to Xizhou Ancient Town (40 minutes by car).
You can explore the ancient town and there are many coffee shops. We checked in at Chuntang.
The rice fields promoted have already been harvested, not as pretty as in the pictures.
▪️ Then went to Shuanglang Ancient Town (1 hour by car).
You can explore the ancient town. We checked in at Liuyue · Fushi FORTEN.
▪️ Finally returned to Dali Station (30 minutes by car).
Passed by a Sunset · Mountain and Sea Coffee Shop (can take photos in more than 10 styles), worth it.

Day 6️⃣
On the last day, stayed at Hilton Huanpeng next to Dali Station.
The hotel breakfast was very rich. After eating, we headed back.
High-speed train to Kunming — flight to Zhengzhou.
