The Stone Forest (石林) near Kunming is a remarkable geological formation. Aeons of sedementation, erosion and volcanic eruption have left sharp, jagged pillars of stone rather like trees, which rise singly and in groves over a large plain. Whether looking down from above or walking through cave-like passages between the rocks, marvel at the alien landscape nature's forces have left. I highly recommend bringing a picnic lunch, as there are no places to get food in or around the park aside from some expensive and unappetizing snacks. It's worth setting aside a whole day for Shilin, as the park is large and there are many different views. We travelled to Shilin Town by bus and stayed in a local hotel, but the park could also be visited as a day trip from Kunming, especially if you have a car. #leaveyourmark #urbanexplorer #lightthecity #stoneforest #石林 #kunming #yunnan #views #photography #geology #amazingplaces #naturalwonders

I was amazed at all the seagulls that come from Siberia to Kunming for the winter. I loved watching families feed the sea gulls. The paintings on the wall were beautifully done. such a peaceful and beautiful place to walk around. It was a lot bigger than I imagine. #wintergetaway #MerryXmas

#yunnanprovince I had a lovely day at Stone Forest Park in Shilin, China. It started off as a cloudy day and then the sun came out. This park is located about 1.5 hours from Kunming and is a UNESCO works heritage site and geological park. I just needed to show my Yunnan health code to enter. #holidayvacation#wintergetaway

#tripaway My family visited Sango Lodge and had an amazing holiday. This place far exceeded all of our expectations. The rooms were spacious and absolutely stunning. The warm lighting and African Decour was absolutely beautiful. We really enjoyed eating at the large round table in the dining room and Cleo, the manager, made us feel right at home. The food was outstanding and the views from the pool area were breathtaking. We were told our guide, Andy Smith, was one of the top guides in Zimbabwe and I believe he is. He knew the names of every bird, plant, and tree and we felt very safe exploring the abundant wildlife on the Save Conservancy. He got us up close with elephant, giraffe, sable, zebra, and many other species and we learned so much. I highly recommend Sango lodge and hope to return one day. #tripaway

#jiuxiang Karst Caves Very good place to see the different geological features. I thought this place would be so boring and less convenient because of the way to get there seemed like heading to a village. But a moment later, I realized that this place is full of my interests. We can also buy some foods (even burger) and drinks in the half way going on the caves. #tripaway
