At the concert, the Kunming Nie Er Symphony Orchestra performed classic pieces such as "My Motherland and Me," "The Blue Danube Waltz," "On One Side of the Water," and "Libertango." Aunt Lv, a tourist from Hubei who is sojourning in Anning, said, "This is my first time attending a concert in nature. My body and mind are pleased when listening to the beautiful melodies, looking at the lake and mountains, and feeling the bright sunshine." In August of last year, also on Egret Island, a group of musicians held a "Very Happy Concert," which was rated by netizens as "the most relaxing, the most enjoyable, and the most liberating concert." The live broadcast reached an exposure of 190 million, with a cumulative viewership of over 40.29 million.

An increasing number of people are sojourning in Kunming due to its pleasant weather, ecology, and scenery. Kunming continues to promote the deep integration of culture and tourism to enrich the travel experience. For example, in 2024, in addition to the concerts at Lakeview Hotel Yulongwan Kunming on Egret Island, the Kunming Nie Er Symphony Orchestra also held city concerts at scenic spots, museums, airport terminals, and business districts, providing high-quality musical performances to citizens and tourists and enhancing the city’s cultural appeal.

In the pursuit of immersive experiences and lifestyle tourism, hotels are no longer just places for rest. More and more tourists are willing to explore and connect the city's natural and cultural landscapes with the city's iconic hotels. To create a core experience for "A Lifestyle Called Yunnan" and establish a world-class leisure and holiday tourism destination, Kunming has accelerated the development of high-quality hotels and Minsu (Chinese-style bed-and-breakfast establishments)  brands in recent years, encouraging them to provide guests with in-depth experiences such as local culture, outdoor sports, traditional Chinese medicine, and unique cuisine. This initiative aims to attract tourists to Kunming for leisure, sightseeing, health care, and sojourning, transforming hotels and Minsu from mere "accommodations" into "micro-destinations" and becoming tourists' "home in Kunming."

昆明信息港讯（昆明日报 首席记者李思凡） 近日，一场午后新年音乐会在昆明玉龙湾湖景酒店白鹭岛举行。在这场以天地为幕的音乐会中，市民和游客在经典的旋律里辞旧迎新，感受春城昆明的惬意生活。

音乐会上，昆明聂耳交响乐团带来《我和我的祖国》《蓝色多瑙河圆舞曲》《在水一方》《自由探戈》等经典曲目。旅居安宁的湖北游客吕阿姨说：“这是我第一次在大自然里听音乐会，听着优美的旋律、看着湖光山色、感受着明媚的阳光，身心都很愉悦。”去年8月，也是在白鹭岛，一群音乐人举办了一场“很高兴音乐会”，这场被网友评价为“最放松、最愉悦、最有松弛感的音乐会”直播间曝光量达1.9亿，累计观看人数超4029万。

因为好天气、好生态、好景致，越来越多人到昆明旅居。昆明市持续推进文旅深度融合，丰富旅游体验。以昆明聂耳交响乐团为例，2024年，除昆明玉龙湾湖景酒店白鹭岛外，乐团还在景区、博物馆、机场航站楼、商圈等地举行城市音乐会，为市民和游客带来高质量的音乐演出，提升城市的文化品位。

在追求深度体验和生活化旅游的当下，酒店不再只是休憩地，越来越多游客愿意以城市的标志性酒店为原点，向外探索并串联起城市的自然及人文景观。为打造“有一种叫云南的生活”核心体验地、世界级休闲度假旅游目的地，近年来，昆明市加快高品质酒店和旅游民宿品牌建设，鼓励和推动酒店、民宿探索为住客提供在地文化、户外运动、中医康养、特色美食等深度体验，吸引游客到昆明休闲度假、旅游观光、康体养生、旅居生活，实现酒店、民宿从“住宿地”到“旅游微目的地”的升级，成为游客“在昆明的家”。
