Photos from China (South-West)This part of China is extremely diverse. There are many different minorities such as the Dong, Naxi, Dai and Miao people, each with their own culture, architecture, language and traditional dress. The scenery is equally rich, as one can travel from deep gorges in the high mountains in the North of Yunnan to the karst landscape near Yangshuo and Guilin, or to the rice fields of tropical Xishuangbanna. |
