Exploring Dianchi Lake and the Surrounding Area in Yunnan

Uncover the Surprises of Dianchi Lake

Exploring the area around Dianchi Lake: abandoned hotels, rocky mountains, caves, parks, and vast meadows in bloom.

Exploring the enchanting region surrounding Dianchi Lake in Kunming, Yunnan is an adventure waiting to happen. With a vast array of sights and experiences to choose from, visitors are sure to find something that piques their interest.

The Dianchi Lake itself is a long stretch of water that extends to the south of Kunming. Despite the fact that it is unfortunately plagued by pollution, particularly along the northern shore, local authorities have been working tirelessly since the late 90s to clean up the water. While progress has been slow, the area surrounding the lake still offers a wealth of unexpected and unique experiences.

One of the highlights of the region is the beautiful Daguan Park, a picturesque park that is the perfect spot for a relaxing picnic or a stroll. For those seeking a bit of excitement, the Little People Kingdom and Luna Park are sure to provide thrills and fun. In addition to these man-made attractions, the region also boasts breathtaking natural sights, including abandoned hotels, rocky mountains, caves, parks, and vast meadows in full bloom.
