The Best Travel Time of Huize Nian Lake: A Guide to Accommodation and Shooting in Huize Nian Lake, Yunnan Province

Every year 1 1 until February of the following year, black-necked cranes will visit the lake last year before the Spring Festival. In addition to black-necked cranes, there will be waterfowl such as magpies and wild ducks, but the most important one is black-necked cranes. The following is the information about playing Nianhu.

Accommodation Raiders Food: Eating in Nianhu is usually in the place where you stay, so you can book a farmhouse in advance.

Accommodation: Stay in Nianhu Lake. It is recommended to choose a place near the reservoir dam to shoot the sunrise. Guanhe Mountain Villa and Nianhu Mountain Villa at one end of the dam and Hongyuan Country Hotel at Huize Bridge are recommended. The advantage here is that the dam where the sunrise is taken is close, but the disadvantage is that the price will be higher. You can also choose Tingheju Farmhouse, Heyuan Hotel and Heyou Villa near Guanhe Square in Li Jiawan. These places are more suitable for taking photos of cranes when the water level is high, and when the water level is low, you can go down to the wetland in the lake to take close-up photos of black-necked cranes. The disadvantage is that it's a long way to take photos of sunrise and cranes at the dam in the morning.

Ok: Shooting in Nian Lake is mainly around the dam and the feeding area of black-necked cranes, so the main means of transportation is walking. If you want to go to other places around the lake, or go sightseeing in the mountains, it is better to drive by yourself.

The important shooting location of Nian Lake is the reservoir dam and the surrounding places where black-necked cranes feed. Black-necked cranes mainly feed on reservoir water in wetlands along the dam to Li Jiawan. When the position is low, it is conducive to shooting. Many black-necked cranes can be seen fishing and shrimping in the wetlands near Li Jiawan. In the morning, before the sun rises, there will be a large number of black-necked cranes sleeping in the wetland on the east side of the reservoir dam. When the sun rises, they will fly to the surrounding wetlands in droves to find food. On the night when I miss the lake, the starry sky is very suitable for shooting the orbits of stars.

The best shooting season of Nian Lake and Time Arc is1from the beginning of February to this time of the following February, flocks of black-necked cranes will fly over for the winter. This season is the most beautiful sunrise season in Nianhu, and there are more clouds in the sky, so it is very easy to shoot good works. In winter, when I miss the lake, it will snow, which is another scenery in the snow.

The suggested shooting time is 5: 30-9: 30 in the morning and 15: 30- 17: 30 in the afternoon. Rest at other times, or shoot humanities films and sugar water films. This suggestion is only for photography-oriented travel.

Shooting guide 1. In winter, Nian Lake has plateau characteristics. It is cold in the morning and evening, and the wind is still relatively strong. Especially, I went to the reservoir dam to shoot the sunrise and black-necked cranes in the early morning. I suggest that the lake remember to keep warm last year. Coat, down jacket, down jacket, trousers, gloves and hats are all necessary for friends who have been outdoors for a long time. However, the temperature rises faster after the sun comes out.

2. When the water level of the reservoir is relatively low, you can take shelter from the wind under the dam of the reservoir, which is very beneficial for shooting.

3. Black-necked crane is a very smart and sensitive bird, so don't make a sound or turn on the flash to take pictures in the morning, which will scare the black-necked crane away.

I suggest you bring a thermos pot, and you can shoot while drinking tea in the cold morning. Hot water is warmer.

I suggest you take the lens with the longest focal length. Black-necked cranes are generally far away and very sensitive and alert, so if you want to take an ideal photo of black-necked cranes, you should use a lens of 400 ~ 800 mm.

6. If you take the bus on your return trip, be sure to ask the owner of the farmhouse or hotel to help you book the bus from Da Qiao Township to Huize. There may be no seats when there are many people. ?
