Yunnan Province, abbreviated as Dian, 'Cloudy South' is one of the origins of the name Yunnan. Located in the southwestern border of China, Yunnan is one of the provinces with the longest borderlines, bordering Myanmar, Laos, and Vietnam. There are 56 ethnic groups in China, and 25 of them are in Yunnan, making it the province with the most ethnic minority groups.

But the sudden outbreak of the global pandemic in early 2020 disrupted our plans, and the trip was postponed again and again. Finally, in May 2021, we set off. We would complete this trip by renting a car and driving ourselves. The itinerary started from Kunming, passing through Mojiang, Lincang, Tengchong, Dali, Shangri-La, Lijiang, and Yuanmou, before returning to Kunming, a total of 18 days.
