A day in Kunming

Kunming is one of those places you only go to as a stopover on your way to Lijiang or Dali, but I recommend visiting a few places while you wait. The first is a calligraphy class. It's a great way to learn a bit more culture and pass an afternoon. I also suggest to get to a roof bar and enjoy a drink or two overlooking the city. It's beautiful on a Summer evening. Both of these places are near 岔街站 (chajie metro). 翠湖公园 (Cui Lake park) is another beautiful place to visit and there is a Mann Coffee cafe nearby where you can view the lake from the 2nd floor. Very peaceful! #kunming #kunmingtravel
