Arrive in Kunming, our guide will meet you at the airport.
Take an excursion to the Western Hills. Located 15km west of Kunming, Western Hills is a range of four mountains stretching over 40 kilometers along the western shore of the Dianchi Lake, looking like a Sleeping Beauty with long tresses trailing away to the south. Totally cut on a natural precipice, Dragon Gate is the highlight of Western Hills. Many inscriptions and steles are found here and there in Dragon Gate. Visit the Daguan Park which was first built in 1682 by a monk, is known for its longest antithetical couplet in China. |
