Visiting this place just went on my bucket list. The pictures are so beautiful, I thought they deserved a thread of their own. Enjoy!

SouthWest of Kunming in Yunnan
A place in south west of Kunming , Capital city of Yunnan Province . Because of remoteness and lack of infra structure and lodging etc. This place is not listed in the tourist map of China .
The red land of the eastern river is a place where one almost can not find it in China 's tourist maps. Even if there is, it has only a few words to introduce it.
It is located in the southwestern part of KUNMING, 2600 ft. above sea level, a remote area.
Because of its lack of infrastructure, transportation problem, inadequate lodging facilities.
ordinary travel agency would not think of going there.
Even the people living there are not so aware or familiar with its existing beauty.
But for those who have seen the pictures of the Red land , no one can resist being attracted to its beautiful scenery! Just like a painting of a great magnificent landscape.

Col de Turini, in the French Alps. It's a stage from the Monte Carlo Rally. 34 hairpins, long straights, breathtaking views.
