Avoid the Crowds with Kids This National Day: Tengchong's Hidden Gems Are Forever Awesome

Dali, here we come! Bringing the kids to Tengchong this National Day was like discovering a treasure👏

I used to think Yunnan was all about Dali and Lijiang, but coming to Tengchong showed me the true vacation paradise✨ Fewer people, beautiful scenery, and low prices—parents with kids will be thrilled!

💦 Hot Springs
Tengchong’s natural hot springs are amazing! Soaking in the warm water with the kids melts away all aches and pains, and your skin gets silky smooth—happiness max! (For hot springs, I recommend Rehai Hot Spring; the water quality is excellent!)

🌋 Volcanoes
[Tengchong Volcano Geological Park]
📍 Location: Mazhan Township, Tengchong City, Yunnan Province
A must-visit for little volcano explorers! Taking a hot air balloon to overlook the volcanic crater is breathtaking, plus you can experience a volcanic eruption simulation experiment. The kids learn geology while playing and even collected a bunch of volcanic rock specimens to take home—educational and fun✓

🚶‍♀️ Strolling and Eating
Heshun Ancient Town is a must-visit! Much quieter than Dali Ancient Town. Stroll by the rice fields at dusk and watch the sunset glow on the blue tiles—so healing🌅
Must-try foods:
✔️ Chicken Soup Rice Noodles (the broth is so rich it’ll make you cry)
✔️ Volcano Stone Grilled Meat (super tender)
✔️ Pea Noodles (a refreshing little treat to beat the heat)

🏨 Accommodation
Recommended for families with kids:
1. Banyan Tree (private hot springs are pure luxury)
2. Heshun Ancient Town Guesthouses (great value for money)

The best part is there are really few people! No crowds, and prices are half of what you’d pay in Dali! Parents with kids, come and book this treasure spot now～✨
