Touching the history of Kunming—Parrot Spring Deep, Jindian Park
Jindian Park in the eastern suburbs of Kunming, also known as Mingfeng Mountain, because the shape of the mountain is like the wings of a phoenix with its head up and crowing.
The Golden Temple in the park was originally built in imitation of the Taihe Palace of Wudang Mountain. During the Chongzhen years of the Ming Dynasty, the Yunnan governor moved the Golden Temple to Jizu Mountain. Later, Wu Sangui, as the king of Pingxi, rebuilt the Golden Temple.
The Golden Temple is just a description. The god statues, curtains, and couplets in the temple are all made of copper, using more than 250 tons of copper. It is better preserved than the Golden Temple of Wanshou Mountain in the Summer Palace in Beijing, and larger than the Golden Temple of Wudang Mountain in Hubei. It is the largest copper temple in the country.
❤Recommended reason: The beautiful natural scenery and exquisite garden architecture are still simple, and the effect of taking pictures in Hanfu is surprisingly good.
✅Must experience:
"Golden Temple Morning Glow":
Climbing up the steps, passing through three heavenly gates, each of which reflects the superb construction skills and painting techniques of the craftsmen at that time.
Entering the Taihe Palace, passing through the Lingxing Gate, and behind the Kui Xing Tower is the towering copper temple. Does the appearance of the Emperor Zhenwu resemble Wu Sangui? In any case, every detail is worth savoring, and the surrounding city wall is also called the Forbidden City.
"Mingfeng Morning Bell":
The Yongle Big Bell hanging in the bell tower was built in the 21st year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1423). The big copper bell is 3.5 meters high and weighs 14 tons. It is the largest ancient bell in Yunnan and the third largest bell in the country.
Jindian Museum:
The story of Wu Sangui and Chen Yuanyuan is talked about by the world, and the seven-star treasure sword and wooden handle big knife left behind, whether true or false, are always a symbol of history.
Jindian Expo Park:
The ancient copper buildings of Wudang Mountain, Wutai Mountain, and Taishan are displayed in a reduced scale, combined with garden rockeries. Every spring, the camellias are in full bloom, which is even more beautiful.
Golden Temple Camellia: There are thousands of pots of camellias in the park. Camellia, also known as mountain tea, is one of the eight famous flowers in Yunnan, and its cultivation history has been more than 500 years.
Crape myrtle, ancient camellia tree: After more than 400 years, it is still tall and straight, and the flowers are not defeated.

All the way to Taihe Palace, I was amazed by the tea flowers at the door. I didn't expect the tea flowers in the tea garden to be more beautiful than the ones at the door of Taihe Palace. It may be that I have a lot of preference for dead trees, new buds, and blue sky. On this mountain, I nostalgic for going back and forth.
Golden Palace Park is on a mountain, there is a cableway to go directly up the mountain, but the elderly in the family are afraid of taking the cableway and say that they can climb the stairs. The sister took the elderly and children to enter from the west gate. The conductor said that he needed to walk up the stairs of nearly a few hundred meters to climb to the scenic spot. The elderly in the family walked more than 100 meters and began to eat. I saw a slide car, 20 yuan a one-way, 40 yuan a round trip, Sister spent one hundred and six to send the elderly and children to the mountain. When I arrived on the mountain, I found that I still continued to climb the stairs to see the attraction. The old man in front exhausted his physical strength. The sister connected the umbilical cord to help the old man enter the real attraction. The three words were too tired. It seems that other tourists commented that they can do a shuttle bus to climb the mountain, but Ximen only saw the ropeway, the shuttle bus did not see it, if the tourists are old legs and feet are inconvenient, the physical strength is not good or do the ropeway. The scenery of the Golden Palace is really beautiful, the pavilions are green, the tourists are not too many, and other tourists are rarely seen walking in the forest trail. The air on the mountain is very fresh, and the deep forest oxygen bar is worthy of the name. The sister browsed several attractions according to the Gaode navigation, or because the old man was not physically able, many attractions did not go to the house. Finally, the sister persuaded the old man to take the ropeway down the mountain. The cableway went down the mountain until the Kunming Expo Park. The elderly did not have physical strength and did not want to go shopping, so the Expo Park did not browse and took a taxi back to the hotel to rest.
Golden Palace, the back garden of Kunming people...Close to the Expo Park, connected by a cableway. Copper house, clock tower, tea garden are all must go... Yunnan's camellia varieties are many, the color and shape are different. You can enjoy the trees full of flowers, or you can enjoy the independence...
Comfortable environment and convenient transportation are highly recommended. . . . . . . . . .
