Fragment of (Southern) Yunnan

---

Well...I did tour a little bit around Banna and Lancang after crossing the border from Laos into Yunnan. Beside the welcoming good weather, there wasn't many surprise in minority scene, it was fading everytime I came visit, the Xiding market sadly has only one Ani woman with costume, and Xiding suppose to be the only market in Menghai area where you can still see many dressed hilltribe...gone!!! Lancang and Menglian still live up to its status, busy and with plenty of hilltribe appeared in costume, I hope it wasn't just because of the last market before new year. As usual...I switch my camera to other angle when the costume scene fail me. here are some fragment I captured along the road, and just let images tell the story.
