Have you gone to Yunnan Province yet? That is a very beautiful place I have ever been to.

I stayed there for seven days. I went to Kunming where is the provincial captital, Dali, Lijiang and Xianggelila (this is a special name). These cities are not too big as my hometown, Nanjing. But I like them more than my hometown. Because these cities are so clear that we can see blue sky. I just can see grey sky in Nanjing. I think that because the pollution in Nanjing is more than Yunnan Province. But I think pollution is a big problem in Yunnan in the future. Because there are so many people like travelling there. The car, the people, the train and so on, they will cause pollution problem.

I like Lijiang best. This was a small town before. It is so quiet place and I like quiet place. So I want to there again.

Yeah. I like shangri-la. I have been to there during 2006 Spring Festival.

i'm a Yunnanese, still "reading books". last august, i had been to lijiang as well, becautiful place really and also , so many tourists there then. i once wanna take a picture of a old naxi woman, but she just wanted to avoid the picturing. changes happen by the pouring of tourists within the country or abroad.but i am worried if next time i went to lijiang , can i find the genuine parts of it. as for kunming, developing , polluting also. to see the dian lake you'll see. somebody joked kunming has nothing but the blue sky. hope we can at least save it.
