Puer: A local's travel guide.
Recently, some tourists have asked me for a travel guide to Puer!
I wonder how they found this small city on the southwest border. Is Puer going to be popular?
So, here's a guide from a local's perspective.
: Transportation
Plane - Puer Station (transfer from Kunming to Puer)
High-speed rail - Puer Station (3.5 hours from Kunming to Puer)
In the city - Taxi, shared bike, chartered car for surrounding tours
: Attractions
① Puer Sun River National Park - 4A Scenic Area
(Tickets required, additional fees for interacting with animals in the park. The red pandas are adorable. If you like nature, you can spend half a day here.)
② Nake Ancient Tea Horse Road
(No tickets required. The scenery is quaint, with some tea houses and cafes. The area is not large, so half a day is enough for a leisurely stroll.)
③ China Puer Tea Expo Garden - 4A Scenic Area
(Tickets required. The ecological tea garden is full of greenery and fresh air. You can experience tea picking and simple tea making.)
④ Jingmai Mountain Ancient Tea Forest - World Heritage Site
(No tickets required. The journey is long, so a two-day chartered car tour is recommended. If you have time, I highly recommend visiting, as the scenery changes with the seasons.)
: City Walk
Dai Family Lane / Puer Old Street / Administrative Office / Supply and Marketing Cooperative Warehouse
Meizi Lake Park / Tea Mountain Viewing Platform / Xima River Wetland Park

② Wild mushrooms: Try them during the rainy season. Yigui Xinyuan in the city is quite delicious. I don't recommend buying fresh ones to cook yourself 🍄
③ Glutinous food: Rice cakes, glutinous rice, steamed cakes, delicious and addictive
④ Cold dishes: Ah Xian sour chicken feet, Lao Bai ethnic group, Niangniang Laos
⑤ Barbecue: Old Street Sweet Skewers, Yule Barbecue, No. 52 Brother Shi's Grilled Chicken, Banna-style Fish Wrapped in Vegetables, Shen's Stinky Tofu and Fish (queue), and recently, a popular Jinggu Barbecue at Waltz Plaza, with spicy beef as a must-try 😋
: Coffee Lovers
① Cafes: Torch Coffee, Jianyu Coffee, Great Bean (You can also come to my shop for a cup. We only serve hand-brewed coffee, with Puer specialty beans and Geisha.)
② Coffee Estates: Tianyu Estate, Dakahe, Wild Duck Pond, Torch... It's not the production season now, but you can see coffee trees and green fruits.

Pu'er, you really know how to enjoy yourself! Meizi Lake surrounding area tour, free attractions, and free parking
Address, Meizi Lake surrounding area, Pu'er City, Yunnan Province
Meizi Lake Park is located 4.5 kilometers southeast of the city and is an AA-rated scenic area. It is named after the artificial lake formed by damming the Meizi River. The park has fish ponds and a small-scale poultry and animal breeding garden, with well-equipped catering and comprehensive entertainment service facilities. Climbing up the dam, you can enjoy the panoramic view of the lake and mountains, and there are motorboats and pedal boats available on the lake; there are several pavilions and antique buildings along the lake, as well as a corridor of calligraphy couplets by contemporary Si Cheng literati.
Living near Meizi Lake and strolling around, I found the scenery here to be very nice. The lake trail is closed, but the brisk walking trail is already open, and everyone can go and have a look. The nearby area is very characteristic.
