Preface

This is a trip to go, before the Spring Festival, one of my colleagues said that he was going to Banna, I like to go to play so much that I could go with her, so I hit it off and booked a plane ticket immediately , set off the next day.

My colleague said to take shelter from the cold, but in fact, I don't know much about Banna, and I am not very sure about the statement of avoiding the cold, we are southerners (Guangzhou, Guangdong), where can we take shelter??? In fact, Banna shocked me!! I'll talk about it later! O(∩_∩)O Haha~

From the autumn and winter of 2023 to the spring of 2024, the entire south will be cold and hazy, with no sun for a long time, and no blue sky and white clouds. I have despaired that the black of the world is the same black. Unexpectedly, Banna shocked me again!! Excessively!!! I'll talk about it later! O(∩_∩)O Haha~

Day 1: Guangzhou Feibanna (Baiyun Airport - Gasa Airport)

It was only after five o'clock when I arrived at the airport, and it was gray. That's right, Guangzhou has always been this kind of dead ashes, and I think depression will be high during this period! I feel like I'm a little depressed! Woohoo!! ┭┮_┭┮

We took the flight from 7 o'clock to 10:05 (having breakfast on the plane and looking at the scenery is almost there (#^.^#)).

When the plane soared into the sky, I completely got rid of the gloomy weather in the south and saw the blue sky and white clouds!! Wow!! I was healed by the blue sky and white clouds!

Dear! Remember my words and book your morning flight! You can watch the sunrise and the sea of clouds on the plane! (I exchanged flight points for a window seat, it is recommended to spend money to choose a window seat, the view is really worth it, it is equivalent to watching the scenery the whole time!) Choose the left side to watch the sunrise and the right side to see the sea of clouds! They are all beautiful!! ~~~)

This sea of clouds directly got me drunk!! I think this early flight is full of the joy and beauty of travel, and I think it's worth it to return to the same place! O(∩_∩)O haha~~~

China Southern Airlines planes can choose meals in advance on the APP, there are various flavors, I chose the custard set! Healthy and delicious! (*^▽^*)

Landing at the airport

Not

far from the airport exit is a large sea of flowers, which is very big! The key is that I didn't see any other tourists at all, just me and my friends! O(∩_∩)O haha~~

Under the sun, the weather is too hot and too hot! We are really here to escape the heat! I regret bringing too many thick clothes. Woohoo! However, the temperature difference between day and night is a bit large, so you still have to dress warm in the morning and evening!

First stop: Gaozhuang

Recommended attractions: Golden Buddha Temple

Recommended places to eat: Right next to the Golden Buddha Temple, the environment is quiet, The food production is not bad, the key is to have a super good viewing platform, which is very suitable for taking photos and checking in!

Visit and take photos at the Golden Buddha Temple. You can take pictures at the door, but there is a fee to enter, and you cannot take pictures inside.

Gaozhuang, the entire tourist area, food and accommodation are very convenient. Accommodation is slightly more expensive, but the advantage is that it is convenient to play. You can choose a hotel or B&B a little farther away. Within a 15-minute drive, there are many options and affordable prices.

The homestay we chose is cost-effective, clean and hygienic, the decoration is very distinctive, the vision is wide, and I love it! I wanted to renew it later, but I couldn't get it!! Full room!

At night, you can see the night view of Gaozhuang and visit the Gaozhuang Night Market, where you can eat and drink, listen to songs and see the scenery; You can also wear Dai costumes to take pictures. Clothing can be bought or rented. You can take photos by yourself, and there are many professional beauty photos.

Day2

First stop: Manting Park + General Buddha Temple (Enter from the main entrance of the General Buddha Temple, free to visit the main Buddha Temple alone.) Manting Park charges a fee to see gardens and buildings during the day and performances at night. Although it is highly recommended online, I personally do not recommend it. It doesn't feel worth it! ）

The Big Buddha Temple is on the top of the mountain, walking is a bit tiring and time-consuming, if you want to save time, you can buy a one-way ticket up the mountain, you can walk down the mountain, you can see the Big Golden Buddha up close
