(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Stone Forest
Begin your Yunnan trip through the diverse landscapes of China's most spectacular province in the regional capital of Kunming. One of our English-speaking tour guides and a professional driver will pick you up from your hotel within Kunming second ring road. 1.5 hours in car to one of Yunnan greatest wonders, the Stone Forest in Shilin County. Weather and time have sculpted a massive karst labyrinth that feels like you are walking through a forest, with ancient stone trees looking down on you. Every rock formation you pass has its own touching story or thrilling legend, passed on by the natives who have lived in this area for ages. The natives belong to the Sani minority, a branch of the Yi ethnic minority, which you can still find inside the park, jamming together singing folk songs or making embroidery.
Jingxing Bird and Flower Market
Later continue to Jingxing Bird and Flower Market in Kunming, a lively spot where flowers, birds, fish, insects, antiques, jewelry, and handcrafted goods create a dazzling array of sights. This market offers not only a great shopping experience but also a chance to immerse yourself in Kunming’s rich old street culture. Whether you're a succulent enthusiast, an antique lover, or simply enjoy quirky treasures, the market has something for everyone. Don't miss out on the local snacks, such as canned rice noodles, Lao Ma grilled meat skewers, and fried potatoes, which make this bustling market even more tempting. A visit to Jingxing is a perfect way to experience Kunming's charm and vibrant local life!
