Xishuanbanna

One day in Kunming, capital of the Yunnan province was just enough. As usual, the big cities are not very interesting (apart from the temples). We got there in the morning, left in the evening... by us. We had to give up on my favourite paid way of transportation, as the railways end in Kunming, and the only way to get to really interesting places in Yunnan is a bus. They're quite expensive, but hey, i came here to see a lot of things and expenses are justified.', 'Xinshuanbanna is a region bordering Laos and Vietnam. The climate here is ridiculous, in September in the temperatures at night are around 25-30C. We took the bikes again and went to see some ethnical minorities villages around Jinhong (region capital).

The best thing about this place is food. It's definitely among the best in China so far - and belive me, that means a lot. You can eat really well, really tasty, and quite cheaply here. The "all you can eat" restaurant is 1,5 euros. Yum!
