Serene lakes, glorious temples and scenic hills dot Kunming, but it’s the stunning limestone rock formations that really attract tourists to this part of China. These majestic natural offerings can be explored with much ease, thanks to the city’s sub-tropical climate. As the capital of Yunnan, Kunming also serves as a perfect jump-off point to explore the entire province.
