Kunming Highlight Free City Walking Tour

Begin your walking tour at the West Gate of Cuihu Park, known as Kunming's "green heart." Stroll along the lakeside path, enjoy weeping willows, and watch locals chilling in the park. Capture photos of the Lake Heart Pavilion and koi fish at Guanyu Tower. Next, head to Huanggong East Street, one of Kunming's most photogenic streets. Admire the vintage yellow walls and French plane tree shade, lined with cafes. Stop for a coffee and snap photos of the retro signage and tree-shaded sidewalk. Continue to Kunming Old Street, a street layout formed during the Ming and Qing dynasties, preserving many century-old historical buildings. Visit the Duiyuelou (Wine Glass Building), a unique curved building and popular photo spot, and the Nie Er Former Residence, birthplace of the great musician Nie Er. Stop by the Dongfang Bookstore, a century-old bookstore with a vintage atmosphere. See local flavors like roasted rice cakes (shao erkuai) and tofu pudding rice noodles (douhua mixian) from Yunnan snack stalls along the street. Finally, the Golden Horse and Jade Rooster Archway, Kunming's city landmark, especially beautiful at night. *You can pay the tips by WeChat Pay or Alipay.
