🌦️ Travel Preparation:
👗**Clothing**: Big temperature difference between day and night in Kunming in October, bring a light jacket + long pants, short sleeves are fine during the day, ethnic-style shawls are perfect for photos!
👒**Accessories**: Sunscreen + sunglasses + wide-brimmed hat are a must! Strong UV rays on the plateau, you can get sunburned in a day, physical sun protection is the best!
💊**Medicines**: Stomach medicine (because the rice noodles are so delicious you might overeat), motion sickness medicine (lots of mountain roads), band-aids (for hiking in the Stone Forest to prevent blisters)!
📱**Electronics**: Power bank + waterproof phone case (for boating on Dianchi Lake), selfie stick for panoramic shots of ethnic villages, don’t forget a plug adapter (some guesthouses may use European plugs)!
🪪**Documents**: ID card + student ID (half-price tickets for attractions), screenshot your health code in advance, carry some cash (Stone Forest has poor signal)!
