TuanJieZhen

Hi All,

I decided to stay a couple of days in Kunming before travelling back to Shaoyang but instead of staying in the city, because let's be honest Kunming isn't much different to other Chinese cities, I stayed in the Heart2Heart hostel in TuanJieZhen about 40 minutes outside of the city.

If relaxing and walking, cycling and a host of other outdoor activities this is the place to go. I had lovely day and a half here walking off around the country lanes finding the old Bai minority dwellings. I wish I could have stayed longer.

Again the people were amazing. I arrived late and having eaten nothing all day I walked back up the pathway to a small restaurant I had seen. The family who owned the restaurant were just about to eat so they invited me to join them. Again lovely people..

The hostel itself was really nice and the staff were really friendly and helpful. It could have done with more guests but there again it had more of a family feel as everyone seemed to know each other.

Enjoy the photos

Jah Bless

Buddist Pagodas
This was a restaurant with the pagodas behind it. Not sure as to the story behind it all.
