Yunnan
Here you can experience endless ethnic customs and enjoy the natural beauty of this fairyland in Summer. As home to a tropical rainforest – Xishuangbanna offers the only oasis on the Northern Tropic, it is hard to find an area with such biological diversity anywhere else in China. At the same time, the region is also famous for its tea. You may carry a small basket to experience tea picking. Afterwards you can drink a refreshing tea with the tea farmers.
Yunnan has a cultural heritage site named Yuanyang terraces. Although the irrigation season is over, the sea clouds above the terraces are still the most beautiful scenery. Don’t miss this opportunity! Jianshui Ancient City is a thousand-year-old town full of history. When you come to Jianshui, try to make Jianshui Tofu with the old craftsmen, it will be an unforgettable memory and experience on your trip. The blooming season for the lotus flower in Puzhehei Scenic Resort is every year between June and August.

Guizhou
The average temperature in Guizhou in the summer is around 20 degrees. Perfect as a summer resort. The Huangguoshu Water Fall is China’s largest waterfall and understandably Guizhou’s number-one natural attraction. These falls really shake the local landscape with their cacophony, while rainbows from the mist dance over the Rhinoceros Pool below. There is a hidden gem named Seven Small Arches. A boat ride is the most comfortable way to view the landscape of caves, forests, lakes, mountains, stones and waterfalls.
As China’s largest Zhaoxing DongZhai, here you can visit the unique wooden Diaojiao house, the beautiful Tangan terraces, and watch the Dong song and dance at night.
