The seats were a bit cramped, and the carriage was quite noisy. You can buy soft-seat tickets on-site; the environment in the soft-seat carriages is much better. The scenery outside the train was nice, and each stop had its own unique features. Overall, it was a good value experience.

Yuanyang Hani Terraces, Yunnan: The epic and natural wonders of agricultural engraving on the earth as a world cultural heritage and an important agricultural cultural heritage in the world. Yuanyang Hani Terraces have become photography and the ecological system of "four-vegetarian isomorphism" with the wisdom of farming in 1300 years, 170,000 mu of magnificent terraces and "four-vegetarian isomorphism". Hiking and cultural pilgrim's paradise. The following comments are made from three dimensions: 1. Core landscape: The perfect symphony of nature and artificial Yuanyang terraces is the shock of its geographical wisdom of "mountain-like". From the Malizhai River at 800 meters above sea level to the top of the 2000 meters high mountain, more than 3,700 terraced fields such as sky ladders go straight up to the clouds, and the extreme terrain with slopes of 15° to 75° has been domesticated by the Hani people as "earth color palettes". • Duoyishu Terraces: Famous for "the sunrise and the sea of clouds", the morning sunrise penetrates the mist, the golden terraces and the mushroom room intertwined like prints, and are known by photographers as "the most dreamy place in the world." • Bada Terraces: The 3,000-level terraces have a scale line and three-dimensional level, showing the ecological miracle of "water does not go down the mountain, soil does not leave the field" at sunset, and the sea of clouds is like a dragon. • Tiger-mouth Terraces: The terraces in the deep valley are blooming like flowers, and 6,000 mu of terraces change colors in the cloudy and sunny. The sunny days are blue, cloudy days are gray, and golden in the morning and evening. It can be called "colored terraces". 2. Cultural value: Yuanyang terraces, the living heritage of agricultural civilization, are not only landscapes, but also empirical evidence of the four-vegetarian isomorphic ecosystem of Hani "forest-village-terrace-water system". • Irrigation Wisdom: The Hani "woodcut water distribution" system distributes water with a precise scale, "ditch people" maintains ditches, and "hydro-flush fertilizer" becomes wastewater as nutrients, forming an ecological closed loop without large-scale water conservancy facilities. • Farming rhythm: The terraced red rice is produced every year, following the four-season production tune of "Hani Ancient Song", spring ploughing and autumn harvest, Hani Changjie Banquet, mushroom room, costume culture and other folk customs constitute a complete cultural map. • World Heritage status: In 2013, it was included in the World Heritage List and in 2025 was selected as the candidate list of World Irrigation Engineering Heritage China. Its concept of "conforming to the mountain and efficient water" provides a model for modern ecological agriculture. 3. Travel experience: The travel value of the immersive nature and humanities trip to Yuanyang terraces lies in the experience of "all-weather, multi-dimensional": • Viewing strategy: • Sunrise: Duoyishu Observation Deck needs to arrive before 5 o'clock, the roadside hillside can accommodate thousands of people, and the C position can take pictures of the sea of clouds and terraces. • Sunset: The three-dimensional light and shadow of the 3700-level terraced fields in Bada Terraced Fields and the deep valley color of the Tiger Mouth Terraced Fields constitute different visual shock. • Hiking: Deeply into the paths of the terraced fields, feel the farming culture, and take pictures of the pastoral pictures with a unique perspective. • Accommodation recommendation: Duoyishu Observation Deck surrounding homestays such as Yunluo Inn, the viewing room can lie down and watch the sunrise, cost-effective; Shengcun and Xinjie Town provide more accommodation options. • Food map: Haniyu water chicken, terraced red rice noodles, bamboo rice, pineapple rice, etc., combined

The spa is spacious, with the outdoor hot springs shaded by trees and filled with squirrels. I loved the fish spa pool, where tiny fish kept chasing after food at my feet. The spa is located across the garden, with a large pool on the first floor. There's a lounge on the second floor, and a buffet on the third (for an additional fee).

The night shrouded, the Chaoyang Gate of Jianshui Ancient City was gently wrapped by warm yellow lights, and it seemed to cross back hundreds of years ago. This city gate with a history of more than 630 years, also known as "Little Tiananmen", the structure of the triple Yuxie Peak makes it "a layer higher" than Tiananmen, and the four big words "Southeast of Xiongzhen" on the upper floor of the city are strong and powerful. Under the city gate, locals and tourists are intertwined, some people take a leisurely walk, some people stop to take pictures. The square on the side is lively, the national dance is happy, the cultural documentary film projection by laser is played on the city wall, the light and shadow are interlaced, and the ancient and modern are wonderfully integrated here.

It exceeded my expectations. Although the weather was not very good and the temperature dropped, it did not affect my praise for Taiping Lake. It is magnificent and the variety of flowers and plants changes according to the seasons, giving tourists a new view. My companions want to visit again when the weather is good.

Overall, it's good. It's well-maintained, and the area is quite large, so you can walk around and explore. It's very reasonable that it's free. The electric carts don't cover much distance, so if you don't want to spend money, you can hike up the mountain yourself.
