Best Travel Time

You can see different scenery in Dongchuan Red Land in different seasons. The earth is the reddest one or two days after a heavy rain. The best seasons for photography on red earth in Dongchuan are May-June and September-December, and the snow scenery in March is also beautiful.

Dongchuan Red Land is located in the northeast of Kunming. Because the soil contains more iron and aluminum, it develops a dazzling deep red color. The land is divided into blocks of color by fields and crops. From a distance, the colorful scenery and the blue sky and white clouds are even more spectacular.

The sea level of the red earth is about 2000 meters. For thousands of years, local farmers have worked hard on this barren land, instead decorating the red land with brilliant colors into a beautiful place.

The Red Earth Scenic Spot is centered on Huashitou Village, Xintian Township, with a radius of dozens of kilometers. There are large tracts of red soil everywhere, with different postures and colorful colors. In recent years, this place has become a photography place for photography enthusiasts who come to Yunnan to collect photos. You must check in!
