The Hungry Explorer s Journal

You must visit Simola Wa Village and Ginkgo Village in Tengchong, don't step on the big thunder!!!

I live in the city area, it costs 200 yuan to charter a car to Ginkgo Village, plus 30 yuan for the entrance ticket. It's not bad, but I don't think it's worth it. The stalls inside are seriously homogenized, and there are too many barbecue stalls, which makes the air not good. However, the freshly squeezed juice is very good. I think the freshly squeezed juice anywhere in Yunnan will not step on the thunder. I said I wanted to eat half an orange, and the juice seller directly peeled a whole one for me. The food is not expensive, I ate barbecue rice noodles, and also ordered a small portion of roast pork, which is delicious. Ginkgo Village is in the north of the city. If you don't pass the geological park (with paragliding, hot air balloons and other projects) on the way, it's too troublesome to run a trip just to see ginkgo. The journey takes one and a half hours, and it takes more than three hours to go back and forth. Simola doesn't need a ticket, and it costs 100 yuan to charter a car back and forth. There are places to stay in the village but not many, there are under construction homestays and several restaurants. The main thing is that the air is fresh, the village is not big, it's very comfortable to turn around and sunbathe for half a day, and then leave after a meal. By the way, there is a strawberry picking garden, I forgot how much it costs anyway it's cheaper than buying in the city, it's a very cost-effective place to go. My favorite is the "Seven Sons Spring" scenic spot, seven springs represent the seven surnames of Simola, and there is a platform for worshiping the tree god (I think) on the high place. The mountain spring flows from the mountain to the farmland below. The mountain spring is clear and transparent, I like places with water and trees, I heard that the forest can soothe the mind (that is, there are many negative oxygen ions), coming to the forest once a week can significantly improve the body's immunity. I hope not to overdevelop, and must keep the natural environment here to the greatest extent. I bought a bag of purple peanuts in Simola. This kind of peanut is not widely grown and is rarely available for purchase. Purple peanuts contain a lot of anthocyanins and have strong antioxidant effects. Another recommended place is Mayu Valley Hot Spring Town, which is built in the valley and the surrounding environment is very good. There are many homestays and hotels inside, I took a look and it's not expensive, I plan to stay here next time. When there are many outsiders in Tengchong, many places in the city are building homestays and hotels, which is a bit noisy, so I don't recommend staying in the city. Ginkgo Village
