Kunming, China

What You Will Do
Experience a different side of China, well away from the factories and big cities. A wild mountainous region that many people do not even realise exists. Travel along the 1000-year-old Tea Horse Caravan Road and experience old trading posts such as the ancient Dali Kingdom and Xizhou, home to wealthy Tea-Horse merchants for centuries. Follow in the footsteps of Victorian explorers in romantic Lijiang Old Town in the Himalayan foothills. See the Yangtze River up close surge wildly through the Tiger Leaping Gorge and discover the mythical Shangri-La in Tibetan borderlands from the famous novel Lost Horizon.
