Move over, ski trips! Yunnan’s immersive winter study camps are stealing the spotlight this Spring Festival, blending education with adventure across the province’s misty mountains and vibrant cultures.
From tracking rare species in Xishuangbanna’s rainforests to brewing tea in Pu’er City, families are swapping traditional holidays for hands-on learning experiences. The Yunnan Travel Agency Association launched 10 themed routes in January, catering to curious minds of all ages. Think: scarecrow-making in Dali, ethnic cultural exchanges in Nujiang Valley, and actual net fishing lessons – no textbooks required!
\"It’s like Nat Geo Kids meets summer camp,\" says one parent via social media. The farming tour in Dali lets families plant veggies side-by-side with local farmers, proving that muddy hands make for unforgettable memories.
With 56 ethnic groups and 30% of China’s wildlife species, Yunnan turns every hike into a biology class – and every village visit into a cultural deep-dive. Who knew learning could smell like freshly picked tea leaves?
