China - Day 5 Luo Ping & Kun Ming

Although, we know that the best time to visit Luoping is during February to March in order to see the rapeseed in full bloom, we don't have any choices since there is a long holiday during year-end.




Our first stop is at Jinjifeng (Golden Chicken Peak), the most famous spot to view the rapeseeds flower.


We then visit the Jiulong waterfall.
The Jiulong (nine dragon )Waterfall - consisting of 10-tier waterfalls compactly grouped in a valley. They appear in different shapes, magnificent and beautiful. The biggest waterfall is with a drop of 56 meters and 110 meter in width.
The second biggest waterfall called Lovers Waterfall is a deep pond.The other waterfall also have their distinctive features.


Very happy that there is a cable car to go up to the top view point.








Lunch at Jiulong visitor area.


Stop by at the Jinjifeng again on the way back to Kunming.



Luoping is a national base for raising bees and producing honey products.






Arrive at KunMing very late, we go straight to have “mushroom” sukiyaki for our dinner.
