Kunming is one of the cheapest big cities in China.
Food, rent and entertainment costs are usually
one-half to one-third of China’s coastal regions.
Known as China’s’Spring City" Kunming is home to
some of the mildest and most pleasant weather of any
city in China. A mountain city just north of the
tropics, high temperatures average around 21C
(69F) and lows are typically around 10C (50F). Kunming also has some of the cleanest air and bluest
skies of any Chinese city. Not surprisingly, it is
one of China’s most laid-back cities.
Kunming is the capital of Yunnan province. Yunnan is
one of China’s southernmost provinces, bordering
Vietnam and Laos to the south, Myanmar to the West,
and mountainous Tibet to the northwest. Thismakes
Kunming, near the center of Yunnan, a perfect
springboard for further travel in Asia.
Many exciting destinations await your discovery
right here in Yunnan Province, just a short bus or
train ride from Kunming. These include the
mysterious Xishuangbanna, a wonder of the world---Lunan
Stone Forest, the ancient
kingdom capital---Dali, and the beautiful Lijiang
under the snow-capped Jade Dragon Mountain, and the
famous Shangri-La.
One of the biggest draws for tourists coming to
Kunming (other than the great weather and clean air)
is the city’s ethnic diversity. Tibetans, Hui, Bai,
Dai, Yi, Naxi and other groups contribute to a
cultural melting pot that differentiates Kunming
from the majority of other major Chinese cities.
Kunming is rapidly becoming one of China’s more
internationalized cities. It has sister city
relationships with Denver, Colorado in the United
States and Wagga , New South Wales in Australia,
etc.If you choose to come to Kunming, you might look
for more business opportunities. There are lots of
interesting products such as tea and flower, which
need an international market.
