Janice in Yunnan, City of Eternal Spring

We went on a 8 days tour with Chan Brothers Travel to Yunnan, China from 5-12 Apr 2008. We visited the major tourist regions such as Kunming, Dali, Lijiang and Shangri-La. As we coached along the rivers and mountains, we were fascinated and awed by its diverse cultures, breath-taking natural scenery and pleasant climate in Kunming, the capital city, celebrated as "City of Eternal Spring".

Yunnan province is situated in the southwest of China which covers a total area of 394,000 square kilometers. It is home to 26 ethic minorities which give a rich color to the land. They contributed with their colorful costumes, their traditional songs and dances to the attractive life.

Yunnan attractions include Jiuxiang Scenic Spot, Stone Forest, Lijiang Ancient Town, Tiger Leaping Gorge, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, Dali Ancient City, Erhai Lake, Three Pagodas, etc.

Janice put on the 'Bai' tribe costume which we bought from Yunnan and she is delighted to pose for some photo shoots when we were back at home.
