Itinerary

Yunnan Nationalities VillageBenzilam
Admission included180 min

A beautiful and big park that reunites Yunnan’s 26 ethnic groups. Every single of Yunnan’s ethnic minority has their own village built in their own unique style. People from these ethnicities live here to show their colorful and traditional way of life, showing their rituals, dances, crafts, festivals and so on.

Kunming West Hill (Xishan Forest Park)
Admission included180 min

Up the western hills, cultural temples are mixed with natural cliffs, Taoist grottoes, flowers and forests. Especially when you go through the stone corridor carved into the face of the cliff, you can really imagine how dangerous and difficult work it must have been to build all this. You can visit a big Taoist Grotto close to the famous Dragon Gate and on the mountain top, you can enjoy a big panoramic view of Kunming. At the end of the day we will drive back to Kunming.

My friend and business partner very enjoy the tour, so refresh and authentic, the weather and nature are great, we changed the itinerary in last minute due our business partner, we love so much the scenery especially the Stone Forest àn the Dynamic Yunnan show Highly recommended and appreciated <3

Operator response

Dear Ngoc Diep, Thank you so much for your kind review and recommendation! We are happy that you enjoyed your trip to the Stone Forest and we could help you to adjust the tour according to your wishes. The Stone Forest in Shilin truly is an unique landscape seen no where else in China, and the Dynamic Yunnan Show is often praised by our customers as one of the best dance shows they have seen. It is a great representation of different ethnic minority cultures in Yunnan. Glad you enjoyed the show too! Thanks again for choosing Wonders of Yunnan Travel, we hope we can welcome you to Yunnan again and show you more of the beautiful places here! Best Regards, Kaylee Ke, info@wondersofyunnan.com
