Songlu Tribe: How Did It Become a Must-Visit Spot Around Kunming for Summer?
Summer is over, long holidays have ended.
The enthusiasm for popular travel remains high.
Opportunities for long-distance trips are gone.
The next travel theme is "short trips, weekend getaways."
Forest escapes, self-driving周边游, weekend family trips.
All kinds of short trips are tempting.
Weekend fishing, farmhouse self-service BBQ, mountain camping.
Plenty of activities with niche and unique locations.
However, some classic nearby spots are already well-known.
On weekends, they are overcrowded, and people become the attraction.
So, for those running out of nearby destinations,
a new destination is here.
A niche spot has emerged around Kunming this summer.
Name: Kunming Songlu Tribe Scenic Area. Address: Xiangganjing, Xizhu Street, Wuhua District, Kunming. Distance: 40 minutes from Kunming city center.
1. Grassland camping: There are many meadows with various animal-shaped installations loved by children, suitable for bringing your own camping canopy. 2. BBQ camping in the camping area. 3. Hiking to various scenic spots.
1. The entire scenic area is very large, and the parking lot is far from the meadows. It is recommended to take the scenic train. 2. Be careful with sun protection and bring rain gear.
When it first opened, it became a hit on the internet.
Attracting many people to check in.
It once topped the list of "Kunming's must-visit summer spots."
So what made it attract so many tourists?
Based on my personal experience, I've compiled key points.
Let's discuss together!
When I first heard "Songlu Tribe,"
It sounded unfamiliar, and I didn't know what it offered.
I thought it was just a small theme park.
Not large, with few deer and squirrels.
But upon first visit,
I realized Songlu Tribe is a
natural amusement park combining play, camping, and BBQ.
When I first saw it, besides learning about Songlu Tribe,
I was amazed by its size.
Covering 3,000 mu, compared to standard football fields,
I couldn't even calculate it properly.
Endless forests stretching from one mountain to another,
meadows like grasslands, one after another.
Each attraction occupies its own hilltop.
The distance between each attraction
could accommodate dozens more projects.
The flower sea is a plus-size version of normal ones.
The grassland is a plus-size version of normal ones.
Everything is an enlarged version of the standard.
In short, size is the most impressive feature of Songlu Tribe.
It feels like a natural park built within the forest.
This resort retains the forest's character,
adding entertainment and fun.
It connects the transportation routes between each attraction,
especially the meadows for tourists.
The size is staggering.
Standing at the entrance of the largest meadow, looking at its end,
people shrink to tiny black dots, only visible when moving.
Building such huge meadows is ridiculously extravagant.
My love for Kunming Songlu Tribe begins with its appearance and stays with its beauty.
Kunming Songlu Tribe is truly "beautifully intoxicating."
July in Kunming is both summer and rainy season.
Green becomes the dominant color during this time.
We see plenty of green, but endless green
is something many haven't witnessed.
The breathtaking scene can only be described with a "Wow."
In that moment, any praise is forgotten.
Green is the main color of Songlu Tribe,
but there are also accent colors that make a difference.
Like the occasional sky blue, striking pure white, dazzling multicolor.
The clear sky is light blue, dotted with white clouds.
Mixing with the green ground, heaven and earth become a harmonious painting.
A huge waterfall in front of a cliff,
white as a silk ribbon, stones showing colors.
Just the colors are intoxicating.
The little figurines and animals on the grassland
are lifelike, with bright and complex colors.
Childlike fun, innocence, and heart are the words I think of.
Kunming Songlu Tribe's natural scenery and activities are its signatures.
There aren't many activities, but they are innovative.
Rainbow slide and atomic roller are the most challenging.
Rainbow slide has two types: beginner and advanced.
Beginner is narrow, doesn't turn during sliding.
Advanced is very wide, collides and spins during sliding, causing dizziness.
Atomic roller, as far as I know, is the first in Kunming.
So its novelty goes without saying.
It's an upgraded version of various jungle traverses.
Fully automatic speed, all-open seats.
It's a tech version of a swing.
Letting you fly and glide through the forest as if with superpowers.
The surprises of Kunming Songlu Tribe go far beyond.
Why has it become the hottest "Kunming summer must-visit spot"?
Everyone has their own opinion!
