"South of the Clouds"
is the literal meaning of Yunnan, and stretching
from the high Tibetan Plateau down to the subtropical climes bordering
Southeast Asia, it is an amazingly diverse place. Yunnan is the most biologically diverse area in the temperate world, and
contains a host of rare and endangered wildlife that will delight any
naturalist. Located at the crossroads of Tibet, China and Southeast Asia,
it is home to a mix of ethnic groups - from Naxi and Bai to Pumi, Dai,
Ake, and Hani. The temperature is mild and pleasant throughout most of the
year, but can get quite cold in the winter at higher elevations. Southern
Yunnan also experiences a rainy season from May to
October...

capital of Nanzhao and Dali Kingdoms, the political, economic and cultural
centre of Yunnan, an important gateway of cultural exchange and trading
with southeastern Asian countries, and an important pass of the ancient
"Silk Route of the South". It has long enjoyed the reputation of "a land
of letters". Dali is situated in
the southwest of Yunnan and at the intersection of the Yunnan-Burma
Highway and Yunnan-Tibetan Highway. It is 400 km. away from Kunming and

If you look on a map of China, you will notice,
sandwiched between Thailand and Tibet, a Chinese province called Yunnan.
Zoom in more closely and let your eye follow the line of the Yangtze River
as it curves in a distinctive hook marking the great First Bend of China's
longest river. As China's Mother River turns sharply northwards at the
First Bend, its waters flow placidly a further 30 kilometers until
confronted by a narrow gorge, Tiger Leaping Gorge... |

Hainan island
is a large tropical island off the southernmost tip of China. If you
are looking to relax by golden beaches, sunshine, blue skies and clean
air, then Hainan island awaits your arrival. For the
more intrepid travellers, we would like to offer the opportunity of
exploring exotic minority cultures and rainforest regions, the
hidden gems of this beautiful island.
Sanya Located on
the southernmost tip of Hainan Island, Sanya is the island's
most famous tropical resort, a wonderful place in the baking summer months
and also a popular spot in winter too. Once home to China's most reviled
exiles, Sanya has
been transformed from a spot that no one wanted to visit at the "utmost
ends of the earth" to one of China's most popular
resort areas. |

Guizhou has long been a remote backwater of China's Southwest,
largely untouched by tourism development seen in surrounding provinces
such as Guangxi,Sichuan and Yunnan. Its relative isolation has made the
region one of the best kept secrets in China.Southeastrn Guizhou,The rich
minority areas.Technically,in the Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous
Prefecture,over 13 different minorities live in the forested hillsides and
river valleys of this region.Many of these minorities continue to hold
epic weekly markets and annual festivals and retain a unique way of life
relatively untouched by China's modernising mania.
Kaili Along the
Xiang-Qian(Hunan-Guizhou) Railway to the southeast of Guizhou province,
Kaili city is the capital of Miao and Dong Minority Autonomous region and
the central tourist city in the southeast.The Miao and Dong Minority
Autonomous Prefecture to the southeast of Guizhou enjoys numerous
ethnic festivals with different styles such as the Dragon Boat
Festival, Dragon Lantern Festival, Lusheng Performance, Sisters' Meal
Festival, New Rice Eating Festival, Miao New Year,ect. It may be said:'
Customs and styles are different in a short distance of 10 li; grand
festivals occur every three days while minor ones everyday.' The local
customs and practices and ethnic dietary culture can be appreciated
here. |
