China's rare small tropical city, a large number of northern people to avoid the cold, winter temperatures comparable to Sanya.
In China, if you want to go to the tropical region of the vacation, in addition to Sanya there is a small city is worth going, it is Yunnan Yuanmou.
When I first came to Yuanmou, I was amazed at the fruits and vegetables everywhere, endless green, all kinds of fruits and vegetables. Tropical fruits such as big green jujube forests, mangoes, poppies and papayas are sweet and savory. Onions, tomatoes, beans and other early winter vegetables crisp green, bright eye-catching . The feeling is as if you have come to a large vegetable garden full of vegetables and fruits.
Yuanmou is one of the counties under the jurisdiction of the Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province, which has a dry hot monsoon climate in the southern subtropics. With a long summer and no winter, it is one of the warmest places in China in winter. The winter temperatures are comparable to those of Sanya. The average annual temperature in Yuanmou is 21.9, and the average annual sunshine is 7.5 hours per day, which is very warm in winter and very suitable for leisure and living.
Every winter is the peak season for tourism in Yuanmou, both northerners and southerners will come to winter, and stay for more than 2 months. Strictly speaking, there are no four seasons here, because there is not much difference in temperature between spring, summer, fall and winter, and there is not much change in the vegetation during the four seasons, with flowers blooming and fruits constantly, so it is easy to ignore the concept of time when living here.
The locals like to use the rainy season and the dry season to differentiate , every year from the beginning of November to the end of February is the dry season in Yuanmou, there is less rain, the sun shines brightly, and every day is a good day, the temperature of the body is particularly comfortable, and many people do not want to leave after staying for a winter.
It's interesting to note that when you walk down the street, you'll often hear a northern accent, because so many people from the north have settled or retired here that Yuanmou has become northernized. For example, you'll see buns and doughnuts in the morning stores, northern singing and dancing in the squares at night, and of course, northern people live in the parks.
Yuanmou is suitable for retirement, there is no environmental pollution, the economy is based on agriculture, the pace of life is slow, vegetables and fruits are everywhere, the price is very cheap, just a little bit more expensive meat , and other things are not wrong.
More rare is the altitude is not high, the county altitude is only 1200 meters , where the human heartbeat will increase 10% 20%, sleep, lung function, hematopoietic function, and a number of physiological indicators will be a significant improvement in favor of accelerating the body's metabolism, promote brain health and muscle longevity.
It is important to know that Kunming, Dali are more than 1800 meters, which can not adapt to the high altitude of the elderly, simply too comfortable, the body can hardly feel any discomfort.
Another advantage of this city is that it is not xenophobic , treating outsiders very friendly, as with their own family , it is very easy to make friends. Yuanmou folk harmony, the local character with the north is almost the same, warm and cheerful, like to organize a variety of parties and festivals, there are large and small events throughout the year, in short, in this place to settle down or retirement, the old age will not be lonely.
Yuanmou is not without its drawbacks, which is located in the hinterland of Dianzhong, technologically underdeveloped, information is closed, and the most critical is that the airport has not yet opened. You can only go by train or other means of transportation. Good in the "Chengkun high-speed rail" Kunpan line has been opened, to reach the high speed rail is expected to reach the end of 2023 will be opened , so you can take the high-speed rail to Yuanmou, this high-speed rail will certainly also enhance the local economy.
If you're thinking of spending the winter here, you can live in the Yuanmou People's World Park Scenic Area's retirement apartments (which are convenient for soaking in the hot springs), or you can choose to rent a room in the county, and the local rentals are very cheap, and depending on the location and the decoration, there are some high and low. There are also many local scenic spots, Yuanmou Tulin, Yuanmou People's World Park, Fenghuang Lake Park, and so on, playing for 2 months without any problems.
Surrounded by mountains, flowers bloom in all seasons, and there is no winter in the summer , such Yuanmou is simply a retirement paradise, what are you waiting for? The warm winter action, waiting for you oh.
