Overview
Begin your walking tour at the West Gate of Cuihu Park, known as Kunming's "green heart." Stroll along the 2.5-kilometer lakeside path, enjoy weeping willows, and watch locals practice morning exercises like tai chi. 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 boutique cafes.
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. Try local flavors like roasted rice cakes (shao erkuai) and tofu pudding rice noodles (douhua mixian) from Yunnan snack stalls along the street.
Finally, to the Golden Horse and Jade Rooster Archway, Kunming's city landmark, especially beautiful at night.
