Ren Shen Guo, fruit from Yunnan

by jackiesg

Ren Shen Guo, one of the many fruits produced from Yunnan.It looked like oval shaped, yellow coloured tomatos to me on the appearance and taste just like honeydews! It's firm and green when it's not ripe and then turns soft and yellow when it ripes.A sweet fruit, it's worthwhile to give it a try when you visit Yunnan. I can't find them in GZ.

Talking to the locals

by victorwkf

If you can speak Chinese, it is good to communicate with the locals who are generally very friendly and honest. I especially enjoyed talking to the various ethnic groups to find out more about their interesting culture.

Interesting building

by victorwkf

Does the photo make you feel like you are in Europe? Well, the building is actually located in Yunnan and it is designed according to the European style. It belongs to a Chinese medicine company in Yunnan as part of their agricultural site office.

Medicinal Plants

by victorwkf

When I was in Yunnan, I visited a medicinal plant agricultural site and it was a very good experience. The site was located at the mountains in the Wuding area about 3 hours drive from Kunming. Yunnan contains many medicinal plants which are used in traditional Chinese medicine.
