About this experience
In Kunming, it's not easy to find sights and interesting locations, even with a map at hand. And some corners of the city become a discovery even for the locals! To show you all the very best, I have created a special route. It includes historical monuments, picturesque spots for photoshoots, and curious details that are inconspicuous at first glance.
