Its allure of highland scenery, extraordinary landforms, and exotic habitats can be seen at such scenic spots as The Stone Forest, Grand View Tower, Sani Minority Village, and the Green Lake Park.
Kunming's mild climate and constant foliage proves it to be a great destination for travelers all year long. As a result, it is known as "the City of Eternal Spring".
