À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Wedged between Tibet and the exotic lands of Southeast Asia, Yunnan Province is one of the least known and most beguiling regions of China. A mountainous wonderland, it is home to 24 diverse, colourful ethnic cultures. With a name meaning 'South of the Clouds', Yunnan boasts sparkling blue skies, red earth, and green forests. The picturesque capital of Yunnan, Kunming-'the City of Eternal Spring'-lies near a serene, mile-high lake. Other natural marvels, such as the haunting Stone Forest and lush tropical Xishuangbanna, make Yunnan a microcosm of China at its very best.
