Yunnan Province is widely regarded as the country’s most diversified ethnic cultures and sensationally spectacular area in China. Yunnan is the home to more than 52 ethnic groups, including the Bai, Naxi, Yi, Tibetan and other groups. Dali is the birthplace of Bai people who are well-known for their craftsmanship and literature. Lijiang, listed as the world cultural heritage, was the communication harbour of the ancient Tea-horse Road. We start our trip in Kunming and go further to the heart of Yunnan, where you meet many different minority ethnic groups, including Bai people in Dali, Naxi people in Lijiang, and Tibetan people in Zhongdian. We travel by bus in Yunnan, and it’s a good opportunity to enjoy the sweeping panoramic views of areas featuring spectacular scenery.
