If we plan our travel time mainly from the climate, we will go to Shangri-La in spring, Lijiang in go to dali in summer, Dagunguo Scenic Spot in Tengchong in autumn and Xishuangbanna in winter, which are all seasons and will have unique charm. If you choose the travel time by ethnic festivals, don't miss the Songkran Festival in Xishuangbanna, March Street in Dali, and the International Carnival-Shilin Yi Torch Festival. At the same time, we should pay attention to the Kunming International Tourism Festival held in Kunming every April 10-May10, and then go sightseeing.

In recent years, traveling in traditional festivals and public holidays is very popular, but we should try our best to avoid the peak period in order to obtain a comfortable travel effect.
