Day trip to Stone Forest or Shilin (in Chinese)
It's incredibly beautiful here. Unique natural formations lend themselves as romantic reflection spots. The weather is perfect- the large rocks buffer the sun and create a cooler breezy climate. From a distance the rocks appear to have a pattern of vertical stripes that distinguish this setting from anything I have ever seen before. As I weave through the rock structures, I find myself in a cave-like wonderland. The best part about being here is that I have taken off from my friends to explore on my own. Although Shilin is a tourist destination, I can wander on paths and hear no voices. It feels really refreshing to have this alone time. This coming Friday, the group will move out of the dorms and take a one week exploration trip before coming back to homestays in Kunming. Life has been wonderful and busy here, so enjoying some alone time in this magical setting is exactly what I need.
so beautiful, talia!
