About Kunming
Kunming, is located in southwest China, and is the political, cultural, economic and transportation center of Yunnan Province. The beautiful natural scenery, glorious historical heritages, and colorful folk customs made Kunming one of the first tourist destination cities in China.
One of the main attractions is the Kunming Stone Forest, a spectacular set of limestone groups, known since the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644 A.D.) as the ‘First Wonder of the World’. Walking through the Stone Forest, visitors marvel at the natural stone masterpieces and are bewitched by the intricate formations. The magnificent, strange and steep landscape creates countless labyrinthine vistas.
