Yunnan in midsummer is a double feast for taste buds and vision.

The northern country is still hesitant in the cold spring, but the land of Yunling has already presented the sweetest fruits. Starting from the banks of the Jinsha River to the valley of the Red River Valley, the mountains and plains are filled with fruity fragrance and unique and ingenious food. Together they weave a picture of "Colorful Yunnan·Feast of Hundreds of Fruits" full of vitality and color.

Walking along the winding mountain road in Xinhua Township, Yuanmou County, Chuxiong Prefecture, you will come into view of an "ecological large orchard" that is fragrant all year round.

In March, peaches and plums are flying in profusion, in May, bayberries are red and ripe, in midsummer, yellow peaches are plump and juicy, and in golden autumn, passion fruit exudes a fragrant aroma.

You can find tourists who can visit the spectacular geological wonders of the earth forest, stay in a farmhouse, pick a basket of dewy peaches and plums with their own hands, and taste farm food cooked by a firewood stove, or they can sit quietly by the Hewei Reservoir and catch a fresh fish, thus completely awakening the taste buds in the pastoral poetry.

Changing direction and heading towards Mosha Town, Xinping, Yuxi, central Yunnan, the warm wind in the valley area with lower heat caused the first touch of red on the branches to mature.

The "March Red" lychees, which are released in advance, have a rough outer shell that needs to be removed, and then the crystal-clear and round flesh is revealed. The entrance is as sweet as honey and has a refreshing feeling like a mountain spring.

'Concubine's Smile' is next to the back, with intertwined green and red, a very thin skin, and a very small core. The faint fragrance seems to have spanned the lychee road for thousands of years, transforming the romance contained in 'A Ride in the Red Dust' into the coolness of ordinary people's summer.

Heading south to Honghe Shiping, a rare fruit called "Jiabao fruit" is quietly on the market.

This fruit is shaped like a grape and its color is like black jade. It grows densely on the trunk of the tree and is called "tree grape".

Peel off the thin outer skin, and the wonderful combination of mangosteen, custard apple, and pineapple explodes in your mouth. It is rich, sweet and juicy. This taste makes people marvel at the magical gift of nature and can't help but sigh.

Shiping people are taking this as an opportunity to turn the former barren hills into "green banks".

In Binchuan, Dali, grapes and tangerines compete for beauty.

The sunshine is abundant and the temperature difference between day and night is huge, so the sunshine rose grapes here have a fragrance like roses, and taste sweet and crisp without seeds; the flesh of the tangerines is particularly tender and the juice is extremely abundant. Taking a bite is like drinking a full cup of vitamin C bombs.

In the north of Wenshan Mountain, the first bunch of summer grapes in early summer have already covered the vines. They have become the best companion for people to cool down and quench their thirst. Together with the local peaches and watermelons, they depict the sweet industry map of Yuezhe Town.

Also in Wenshan and Yanshan, in the blueberry garden, small "sapphires" hang all over the branches.

Pick a handful of ripe fruits and put them into your mouth. The full juice bursts out in an instant. The strong fruity aroma is mixed with the faint smell of anthocyanin. The balance between sweet and sour is just right, leaving the aroma lingering on your lips and teeth.

This is a miniature image of the visual representation of Yanshan's efforts to create a "green food brand". It is also a sophisticated and meaningful explanation mark of the plateau's characteristic agriculture.

The peaches in Heping Town, Lufeng, Chuxiong, benefit from the nourishment of purple soil.

The peaches here are round in size. When you bite them, they will make a crisp sound like "clicking". The sweet juice carries a rich fruity aroma. This is the most enjoyable reward for tourists who have climbed mountains and played in the water.

In Baihe Town, Pingbian, Honghe, jackfruit sprouts are sprouting in the summer wind, and the lychee forest is full of flowers and leaves. This vibrant land, with the fruitful results of "one village, one product", demonstrates the vitality of a prosperous industry.

Don’t forget, there is also the purple rice that smells like Pu’er Mojiang River. The rice steamed with it has the characteristics of softness, glutinousness and elasticity, and has a unique aroma. It is the essence of the Hani rice terraces. Don’t forget the fried potatoes, roasted milk fans and bridge rice noodles scattered in the streets and alleys of Yunnan. Together, they form the background of “Yunnan flavor”.

Summer in Yunnan is a sweet poem written on the branches.

Starting from the treetops and ending at the tip of the tongue, starting from the orchard and arriving at the dining table, every bite is the unique taste of sunshine, and every taste is the deep friendship of the earth.

This is Colorful Yunnan, a "green food brand" shared by the world, a touch of hometown flavor that haunts people.
