Kunming
Kunming is a nice introduction to China. A clean city (motorbikes have electric engines , great public transport and it's exceptionally clean - at least in the center). We visited a huge park, with a botanic garden and lakes, than the university which was impressive as well and then we went to the zoo. The food is excellent even we occasionally went to western fast food joints. My aunt work in this area of the world in the 1930s as missionary during the Japanese bomb attacks. We wanted to visit her place but it appears that the name of the village has vanished somewhere during history. The Muslim Uighur minority is very visible and they even have their mosques. You can also get hand on something similar as a Kebab. Later on we also visited the Yunnan Province museum which had some really old stuff (pre year zero). Yunnan seems to be traditionally a rich part of China.
