When I traveled to Lijiang Lugu Lake, I specially stayed in Kunming for two days, and I participated in a one-day tour group to Dongchuan Red Land. I was still a little hesitant to choose this attraction, but the drive time for this attraction is relatively short, and the online feedback is also good. The driver made an appointment with me the night before to pick me up near the hotel the next morning. It's a small group again, a small group of six people, the car seems a little crowded, especially the tourists sitting in the back row, it's very uncomfortable, but fortunately, the journey is not too long, you can get out of the car and move around. There were four people who were traveling alone, and three of them were my age, one of whom was a Taiwanese compatriot, and they talked about their travel experiences along the way and exchanged information about tourist attractions, which was very rewarding. Taiwanese compatriots are very good, he told me that in addition to Hebei and Henan, he has been to other provinces in China, a travel expert!

The road was also a mountain road, and after more than two hours of driving, we arrived at a place where we could stop and see the scenery. The Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau has our country's unique red soil, Dongchuan, about two hours' drive from Kunming, is a relatively close place to enjoy the red soil scenery. This is a rural area, but in order to facilitate sightseeing, a sightseeing platform has also been built to facilitate tourists to sightsee and take photos. The red land that has just been plowed, the green farmland that has been planted, the blue sky and the surrounding mountains form a magnificent landscape painting, because it is a small group, the driver and tour guide will park for us in the place where there is scenery, walk around for a few hours, the scenery is very unique, the original doubts are dispelled, everyone communicates with each other, thinking that this trip is still worth it.


Walking in the vast fields, the surrounding mountains, the sky, and the farmland are composed of emotional, and the colors are very similar to the color palettes that have been knocked to the ground. Is it the palette that the painter in heaven has forgotten on earth?. Seeing these pictures, it seems that people's hearts are much broader.

There are two Internet celebrity farmer grandfathers, holding pipes in their hands, sitting on the top of the hill, with red soil at their feet and their sheep and dogs next to them, which is very much like a painting, and I also took such a picture. Whether they are posing or not, their demeanor of experiencing the vicissitudes of the world is serene and natural.

The

color of the photo taken is different, I think it should be the result of different lighting, the light is strong, the color may be brighter, more intense, on the contrary, the color should be lighter, And there is also a difference in the color of the mobile phone and the camera.

If you see such a big tree here, you should be respectful, this is a sacred tree of the locals, do not climb and take pictures, otherwise the locals will be unhappy to see it.

During lunch, I saw such a plant in the hotel, and the tour guide said that it was a ground lotus flower and could be eaten. The restaurant owner was very enthusiastic about friing the ground lotus for us, and it tasted good, a bit like bamboo shoots.

We finished our sightseeing at three o'clock in the afternoon and returned to Kunming, and I think the red land scenery in the early morning or at sunset must also be very beautiful.
