Which season is better for traveling to Yunnan?

Because Yunnan is located in the plateau, the temperature changes little all year round, but it is said that "one mountain has four seasons and ten miles of different days", and it is one of the provinces with the most obvious climate diversity in China. Banna and Lincang in the south of Yunnan, Kunming and Yuxi in the middle of Yunnan, Lijiang and Shangri-La in the northwest have very different climates.

With the diversification of climate, Yunnan's tourism resources are also diversified. It's hard to say when is the best season to travel in Yunnan.

Let's take a closer look at the tourist attractions in Yunnan in each season:

Spring (February-May): Spring is the season when flowers bloom in Yunnan. Rape flowers in Luoping are well known to the world from February to March, and other wild flowers in Shangri-La Meadow are also in full bloom in May. Camellia, azaleas and peonies are in full bloom in Dali, Chuxiong and Lijiang. Now is a good time to enjoy flowers in Yunnan. At the same time, February-May is also the time when all kinds of tourism festivals in Yunnan are concentrated. If you are interested in folk customs, this is also a good time to travel.

Summer (June-September): Yunnan is full of green in summer. When the rainy season comes, the waterfall is also full of water. When you travel to Yunnan this season, you can see the most mellow Yunnan landscape. However, in some areas, such as Lugu Lake and Deqin, it is easy to break the road due to poor road conditions, so it is necessary to know the situation in advance.

Autumn (10-165438+10 month): In autumn in high-altitude areas such as Shangri-La, you can see the forest completely dyed. There is little difference between other tourist destinations in Yunnan and summer.

Winter (65438+February-65438+1October): The winter time in Yunnan is not long. Seagulls can be seen in Kunming, Yunnan in winter, which is a famous landscape in Kunming. At the same time, the snow in Cangshan Mountain in Dali and Yulong Snow Mountain in Lijiang is more beautiful, and Xishuangbanna in the south is not as hot as summer. The terraced fields in Yuanyang County, Honghe Prefecture are the most beautiful season for releasing water for farming. So winter is very suitable for traveling to these places.
