Kunming is the capital city of Yunnan in southwest China. Located in the middle of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau just north of the Tropic of Cancer, at an altitude of 1,900 meters above the sea level, Kunming enjoys a year-round temperate climate and is often called the 'Spring City'.

Located in the northeastern suburbs of Kunming, World Horti-Expo Garden is full of dense bushes everywhere. It has 5 exhibition halls, 6 theme gardens, 34 domestic gardens, and 33 international gardens. It is a super large expo garden gathering gardening arts of various countries and regions in the world. 

Yuantong Temple is Kunming's largest and most famous temple. The original structure was constructed more than 1,200 years ago during the Tang Dynasty. There is a vegetarian restaurant nearby on Yuantong Street.

The Golden Temple is the largest Taoist Tongwa (bronze-tiled) Temple in China and has been preserved almost intact. On the Mingfeng Mountain, 7km to the east of the city proper, the Golden Temple is cast in brass which is brilliant in the sunlight, hence the name.

Guoqiao Rice Noodle (Guoqiao Mixian) is Yunnan's best known dish. It consists of a bowl of chicken stock to which diners add their own selection of paper-thin meat slices, noodles, vegetables and spices, much like a hot pot. 

Stone Forest is a notable set of karst formations in Shilin Yi Autonomous County, approximately 85km from Kunming. The tall rocks seem to emanate from the ground in the manner of stalagmites, with many looking like trees made of stone, creating the illusion of a forest of stone. It has been known since the Ming Dynasty as the first wonder of the World. Approximately 270 million years ago this region was a vast ocean. Over time, the waters retreated and the limestone landscape was left. Due to a process of weathering and erosion, nature has created an art gallery of stone sculpture- present-day Stone Forest. The magnificent, strange and steep landscape creates labyrinthine vistas around each corner. Each formation has a story about animals or people associated with it.
