I'm writing this blog to stay in touch during our return trip to Yunnan Province in Southwest China.
This area is fascinating ! It has been inhabited for thousands of years and is the home to more than half of China's Ethnic Minority groups. It borders Myanmar, Tibet, Laos and Vietnam and many of the tribes who live there also live in those countries. The natives living in this area are attempting to preserve their cultural heritage despite the influx of Han Chinese and the increasing demands of tourism.
It is geographically diverse and extremely beautiful as well, offering magnificent vistas of the Himalaya Mountains, lush green forests, and fields of wild flowers.
We plan to spend our time in the central and northern part of the province at altitudes of 7,000 to 10,000 feet and will to hike and trek for much of the trip.
So, I hope that you enjoy reading my first experience with blogging as much as I will enjoy
