Kunming travel notes
Yunnan's main transport hub, with airport and high-speed rail connections across the province.
概览
这座城市的气质
Kunming is the practical starting point for many Yunnan trips, with mild weather, easy transport, lake parks, markets, minority food, and day-trip access to the Stone Forest.
为什么去
最值得去的理由
It is Yunnan's easiest arrival city and a useful place to reset before heading to Dali, Lijiang, or Shangri-La.
The Stone Forest gives the city a strong day-trip sight if you want dramatic karst scenery.
Kunming's climate, parks, and food make it pleasant even when used as more than a transit stop.

抵达提示
