film Kunming - Journey to the West Begins
 
 
Kunming is the capital of the southwestern province of Yunnan. It offered a stark contrast to what we had seen in Beijing, namely clear blue skies, rugged mountains and little air pollution. Kunming was a starting point of sorts, with us a spending a night on before and after our jaunts to Dali and Lijiang.

DragonAir (Gang Long Hang Kong) was the airline that got us from Kaohsiung to Hong Kong. Good food and great service.
