The Beauty of Yunnan
Yunnan Province, situated in the southwest of China, is one of the birthplaces of mankind. There are 53 ethnic groups living and working in peace and contentment here.
As one of China's provinces with rich tourism resources, Yunnan's long history and multiple ethnic customs have jointly nurtured dazzling cultures; spectacular landforms in Yunnan have given birth to mysterious and wonderful sightseeing spots. Varied climates could be experienced from south to north of Yunnan; as Kunming does, most areas enjoy a mild annual average temperature of about 15 ℃. Countless natural plateau lakes and ideal ecological environment have generated Yunnan's unique tourist attractions, making it a key holiday destination in China.
A post-conference trip to several tourist attractions can be booked onsite during the conference.
