You ask me, what is Panlong? It's the Panlong River with its reflections of lights and boats, it's the bustling traffic on Beijing Road, it's the commercial centers teeming with merchants, it's the birdsong and fragrant flowers of the Jindian Mountain, it's the childhood memories that awaken our taste buds... Half is a bustling city, and half is tranquil countryside. Panlong is the vibrant life flowing in time, a poetic line that grows in the four seasons.
In Panlong, Kunming,
there's a place
that doesn't require traveling far to the mountains and waters,
just a short distance within the city
where the soul can settle down with a desire for leisure and natural simplicity.
This is Shuanglong,
the destination for a city "micro-vacation".

The Wild Duck Lake Resort
is the first expanse of turquoise to ripple through this hidden paradise.
Boats gently rock,
the sound of oars gently breaking the water mirror,
every inch of the shimmering water is filled with healing.
Poetry and the distant horizon,
wild beauty and warmth
are all contained within this secret haven.

In Lezhi Campgrounds,
emerald waves surge through the trees,
each breath of wine-cooled air we seize.
Here the forest spreads its hall of green—
where children's laughter, wild and keen,
weaves through the leaves' soft-whispered song.

When ancient serenity calls your soul,
Changdao Shanzhai awaits your stay—
Where gnarled branches sieve dappled gold,
lazily printed on wood and steaming tea tray.
Time thickens here as amber honey flows,
letting you sink slow in filtered light's repose.

Should hands yearn to converse with craft's pure art,
Dongtang Xiaofeng greets you at the hill's base:
Windchimes shatter afternoon light apart,
while handmade warmth drifts through the courtyard space.
Berries and dried blooms in frames are laid to rest,
time crumbled in teacups.
Each handmade piece is like a specimen of time,
thoughts still linger in the tea aroma.

At Zuocang Garden, books breathe in silent grace,
ink-scented halls where sandalwood smoke curls.
Between turned pages and tea's lingering trace,
souls shelter in stillness—nurturing inner worlds.

When weary hearts crave gentleness to hold,
Yun Shui Yi Spa's blue-tiled white walls softly gleam—
eaves sketching clouds in their mountain fold,
clear pools ripple with heaven's mirrored dream.
This courtyard holds landscapes from city-noise freed,
a scroll of streams and peaks for tranquil needs.

The most vibrant life of Shuanglong
belong to the Hama Zhe Yi Xiang Food Street.
The aroma of bunge pricklyash leaf roasted chicken,
mixed with the fresh scent of pine nuts,
Charcoal-grilled lamb skewers and mutton soup pot,
wait for you to enjoy heartily.

From lake views to tea aromas,
from forest springs to bustling life,
The "mountain dwelling picture" of Shuanglong outlined by the integration of agriculture, culture, and tourism,
each corner hides the poetic eyes of slow living.
No need to travel thousands of miles,
this scroll of landscape in the northern suburbs of Kunming
awaits your encounter with countless interests and joys.
