Located 200 kilometers from the regional capital of Kunming, in the Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Nanhua is one of those timeless sites that await discovery, providing an opportunity to encounter its minority people during a stay in Yunnan.

My review

Nestled between rivers and wooded hillsides, the villages of Nanhua District have retained their authenticity and their traditional architecture. Just a few kilometers from the village of the same name is "Milyu Ethnic Valley", a collection of villages from the Yi community, where you can join in the inhabitants' daily lives, discover their customs, their traditional costumes, and their unique songs and dances.

The region is also well known for its cooking, and especially its mushrooms - Nanhua hosts a dedicated market as well as an annual festival, the Nanhua Wild Mushroom & Food Festival.
