Yunnan Ethnic Village 云南民族村

This is my first visit to Kunming and it is worth the effort planing for the trip. In fact, I found that I do not have enough time to visit as many places as I would like to. So, I am planning for another trip to this garden city again.

Shangri-La City 香格里拉

shangri-la-119

普达措国家公园 Potatso National Park

来到人们所说的人间天堂.

蓝天白云, 绿色草地, 安静祥和.
小桥流水, 牛羊吃草, 鸟儿歌唱.
看似一幅美丽的图画,但听起来像是一首充满爱的歌.

太阳落山, 天色漸暗, 缓歌慢舞处处闻.
今晨我可乘风游去, 黄昏我能与鹤共 舞.
这种无忧无虑的生活,神仙也羡慕.
何似在人间.

踏进这片超过海拔3,504米的自然土地, 别有一番滋味在心头.

不管你有多少忧愁, 来到这里你将不会知道什么是愁滋味.

这就是人们所说的香格里拉

Zhuhai 珠海

I got to know a IT  Professor in Beijing Insititute of Technology in Zhuhai 北京理工大学珠海学院. Followed his instructions, I took a bus (S$7) from Zhenshen to the University and stayed in the campus for 2 nights.

I took the bus (20 cents per trip) and visited a few places while I was in Zhuhai. The new Yuan Ming Yuan 圓明新園 is a place that I would recommmend you to visit if you are in Zhuhai

From Zhuhai, I crossed the border to Macau.

Shenzhen 深圳

The hotels in Zhenshen are rather cheap, as compared to Singapore and Hong Kong. You could get a double-bed room in a 4 star hotel for about S$30. If you like massage, spa or healthcare centres, there are many in Shenzhen. East Gate is a good place for you to get cheap goods but be careful of the pickpockets. It is very easy to visit the attractions by taking the train.

I did not visit the The Window of the World 世界之窗 but I went to the Folk Culture Village and Splendid China 锦绣中华民俗村. These 2 attractions are in one place and you just need to pay for one entry (about S$20). Do not miss the horse back battle show as it is worth watching.
