Kunming City's Guide to Photographing Jacaranda Trees

Recently, the jacaranda trees in Kunming have been blooming competitively, and some areas have already reached their peak blooming period. The number of tourists has gradually increased, and the Jacaranda Market has been open for over a week now. Often, the places are crowded and the trees are so tall that it's hard to know how to take a good photo? Here are a few spots and angles that I often go to for photography, which I believe will be helpful to you. ⛰【Travel Tips】 Photos 2-7: The Jacaranda Theme Park on Jiaochang Middle Road, just navigate there directly. Photos 2.3: The highest slope in front of the Kunming University of Science and Technology Affiliated Middle School. Photos 4567 are taken from the middle of the road, which is the market section. 🌟Highlights: The most Instagrammable street, where you can spend 25 yuan to take a double-decker bus for close-up photography, and there's also an ice cream. The downside is that it's super crowded! Photos 89: Chun Cheng Road, navigate directly to the Tailong Hongrui Hotel. 🌟Highlights: You can get close to the flowers, but the downside is that you need to climb walls, so be careful. Photos 10-14: Navigate directly to the Jiatai Hotel on Jiangbin West Road. 🌟Highlights: The flowers on the bridge are quite low and look very beautiful in photos, and it's not crowded. The only downside is that you need to find the right angle to take a good photo. These places are all easy to get good shots! Photo 15: Cuihu Park. 🌟Highlights: There's a super big tree that hangs down to the water's edge and looks very beautiful! You can also stroll around Cuihu Lake. The downside is that the angles are somewhat limited. 📷About Angles: The way to avoid crowds is to use various methods of obstruction. First, use your own body, props, flower walls, and the principle of 'things appear smaller the further away they are.' Second, use high and low angles, close-ups. Third, shoot with a large aperture to blur the background. 📌Small Tips: Besides, it doesn't really matter if there are a few people, as long as they are in the distance and not right next to you. If you really don't like having passersby in your photos, you can edit them out later. Also, travel at off-peak times, go out for photography when others are still sleeping in, and you'll find very few people around. Wishing everyone a happy photography experience and fun. If you really don't want to do it yourself, you can make an appointment with me.
