On this trip, we had the opportunity to walk around the Old Street of Kunming or
📍昆明老街 (Kūnmíng Lǎojiē)
Located in the heart of Kunming 🏙️ From the accommodation near the airport, it takes about 1 hour by taxi 🚕 You can sit straight, no need to change lines, it's complicated.
🛍️ Old Street Citywalk
When walking into this area, it feels like going back to ancient China in a chill way 🧧
Walking without planning anything, just walking along is very enjoyable 🎈
✨ Both sides of the road are full of local food shops 🍢🍡🍧 Both local snacks, savory food, sweet food, complete, you can walk and eat all day long. The day we went, there was a light drizzle, making the weather very cool. 🌧️ We could walk all day without getting tired. I really enjoyed it.
🌸 Interestingly, there is a very famous local snack in Kunming that I recommend you try: Flower-filled Pastry (鲜花饼 - Xiānhuā Bǐng). It is a thin and crispy pastry with a dense filling and a sweet rose scent.
It is considered a famous product of Kunming. 🥮💐 You can buy it as a snack or buy it as a souvenir! There are many vendors selling it along the roadside in that area. It is not hard to find. Don't miss it!!!!
🛍️ There are souvenir shops selling tribal-style products, local clothing, 👗 handmade accessories, and many more cute items. 💕 It is suitable for shopaholics and collectors of cute things. Affordable price
🏛️ Popular photo spot: Paper-Thin Building 纸片楼 (Zhǐpiàn Lóu)
📍 This building is located on Guanghua Street 光华街 (Guānghuá Jiē), which is part of Kunming Old Street.
We walked along and were struck by this curved building. It is a check-in spot in Kunming. When viewed from the front, it looks as thin as a sheet of paper. Therefore, it is called
纸片楼 (Zhǐpiàn Lóu) or “Paper-Thin Building”. 📸
✨ This is a popular landmark for tourists to take photos, especially those who like to take photos alone. Don’t worry because there are some local photographers who will take as many shots as you like and then choose the photos later. 💸 The price is around 15 yuan / 1 photo, which is very worthwhile. Even if you come alone, you can still take beautiful photos to take home. 💖
✅ Summary of impressions
✨ Kunming Old Street is a local tourist attraction that is fun to walk around and eat a lot. And take beautiful photos
📍 Anyone who comes to visit Kunming should not miss this place. Personally, I like it very much. I can stay here all day. 10/10 I like it very much😭😭😭 The atmosphere is warm and friendly. There are many food, souvenirs, and cool photo spots to choose from.
🌤️ You can walk all day without getting bored. Whether you come in the morning, afternoon, or evening, it gives a different feeling. I personally like the mood of the day I went the most. It was light rain and cool.
📸 Taking a photo with "纸片楼" is a stunning pool screen. Don't miss it!
