Features: On the chain of time, historical Yunnan and contemporary Yunnan cannot intersect, just like the flowing water in a river, the past cannot return. But history is also a play without an ending, and every ending is the beginning of a new plot. In recent years, the development of scenic areas in Lijiang, Yunnan, has once again brought tourism in Yunnan to the forefront. Yunnan is indeed a place with a certain magic—its unique geographical environment, the folk customs nurtured by its diverse ethnic groups and religions, and the various human landscapes in different forms. This travelogue, written in the style of prose, reflects the author's feelings about Yunnan, including general introductions to famous scenic spots as well as the author's personal preferences. The book follows the author's journey as its main thread, using elegant lyrical language and accompanied by over 200 precious photographs to re-examine the history and culture of Yunnan, including cities such as Kunming, Dali, and Lijiang. The author weaves his unique insights into Yunnan into a broad perspective, summarizing the cultural and historical transformations of Yunnan, and the entire book radiates a captivating charm.
