When is the best month to go to Yunnan?

April and June are the best months, with suitable climate and beautiful scenery.

Let us start from April, the beautiful season of March in Dali. The sky changes, the scenery is gorgeous, the fruits ripen, and the tribes reunite. March Street is an important national festival. Usually in this month, people of all ethnic groups gather together to sing, dance and race horses, which is really lively.

However, March Street now lacks some traditional handicrafts, and it feels like a world of small vendors. Fortunately, there are fellow ethnic groups who follow the tradition of wearing ethnic clothes to the market.

In terms of food and drink, Dali’s blueberries, Binchuan’s oranges, and grapes are all in season. Friends, don’t eat ripe fruits on the road anymore. The broad beans here are also in harvest season. Stir-fried broad beans with fresh fennel only needs a little salt, just like when I was a kid! In places where broad beans are not grown, you don’t have to eat them so fresh.

The weather is pleasant in April. Taking advantage of the Qingming Festival holiday, I invited some friends to go on an outing. My friend who came here in April last year encountered the blood moon in Dali. Who knows what kind of beauties you will meet?

June, fishing season. At this time, the situation in Dali was changing, and the cloudy rhythm began. After the Dragon Boat Festival, fishermen go out to sea, and the blue Erhai Lake becomes spectacular, with hundreds of people competing for the water.

Family members looked on from the shore and prayed for the safety and harvest of each voyage. It's a good time to eat whitebait: this crystal clear beauty has experienced the baptism of high temperature and merged with the eggs. It is fresh and beautiful and will not be forgotten for a long time.

Or make soup, think about the pure wild whitebait in Erhai Lake early in the morning, plus the pea tips that just fell to the ground, and the spring water flowing down from Cangshan Mountain. Such a bowl exudes fragrance, is rich in nutrients, and is truly original.

In late June, the rainy season gradually entered, and the weather began to get cooler. The hottest time of the year has passed, but ultraviolet rays are still strong, so sun protection is needed.

The best time to visit Yunnan varies in different regions of Yunnan. The best time to visit Kunming is from March to October. The best time to visit Red River is January to April and September to November. The most fun time to visit Xishuangbanna is from October to June every year; the best time to go to Qujing is from January to early April every year, and the prime time is mid-March.

1. The best time to visit Kunming

Kunming is the political and economic center of Yunnan and has beautiful scenery. Kunming is called the Spring City, where it is like spring all year round, without winter or cold, nor the heat of summer. The four seasons of monsoon bring warm and moist water vapor to the plateau, making Kunming full of vitality at any time. Although the temperature difference in Kunming is similar throughout the year, the daily temperature difference is very large.

In Kunming, the temperature difference between winter and spring can reach 12-20°C. This season you should bring your coats and sweaters to Kunming. March to October is the best season to go to Kunming. It is the time when there are the most ethnic festivals in Yunnan and when hundreds of flowers are in full bloom. But you should also pay attention to the rainy season in Yunnan from May to October. Don’t forget your windbreaker and rain gear.

Xishuangbanna: Xishuangbanna is located in the tropical region of Yunnan. Under the influence of the tropical rainforest climate, although the climate is pleasant all year round, there is still a certain degree of heat in summer, so October to June of the following year is the best time to travel. The biggest feature of Xishuangbanna is that the climate in the United States alternates between dry and wet. The dry season is from November to April of the following year, and the rainy season is from May to October. Xishuangbanna is a Dai Autonomous Prefecture.
