Yunnan•Kunming Stone Forest Travel Guide! Experience the natural wonders carved by the gods

⛰️I've been to Yunnan more than a dozen times, but this was actually my first visit to the Stone Forest, fulfilling my mother's long-cherished wish to check in at Ashima! 🏞️The mountainous terrain is breathtaking, a magical world of stone peaks – People say you'll regret not going, but you might also regret going a bit (from afar it's mountains, up close it's mountains, with little paths to climb and wind through) but I still want to recommend everyone to go and see the wonders of nature, the craftsmanship of gods is no exaggeration – 🚗It's very convenient to get there from Kunming, just over an hour, and there are also many day trips with round-trip costs and tickets being roughly the same. If you're driving, you can only park a bit far in the ticketing area, then take a shuttle bus to the main entrance. You enter on foot (the main Stone Forest scenic area is where the Stone Forest sign is located for checking in) After the main Stone Forest, take the shuttle bus (the scenery you pass by is beautiful, serene and magical, and rugged) to the Small Stone Forest (picturesque, where the Ashima stone statue is located). 🍗As for food, I want to recommend the Yiliang roast duck (it's a quick drive from the Stone Forest, just off the highway and you're there (Xuecheng Restaurant) the small spicy duck🦆 is amazing)
