    2 stops

    1. Green Lake Walk

      Attraction

      Green Lake Walk

      Use Green Lake as a neighborhood anchor: cross one causeway, read the Military Academy edge and continue toward Yunnan University only if current campus access permits. This is a daily-life park, so keep close photography of local residents respectful.
